NEWS OF ANOTHER MAJOR BREAKTHROUGH IN ALTERNATIVE ENERGY PRODUCTION

INNOVATIVE SOLAR DYES: INEXPENSIVE LIQUID SOLAR POWER

(CAN BE PRODUCED AT ONE TENTH THE COST OF CURENT TECHNOLOGY)

by Justin



from the page:

"....Researchers from the Nanomaterials Research Centre at Massey University in New Zealand have developed synthetic dyes that can be used to generate electricity at one tenth of the cost of current silicon-based solar panels. These photosynthesis-like compounds work in low-light conditions and can be cheaply incorporated into window-panes and building materials, thereby turning them into generators of electricity..."

Atlanta startup turns human waste into fuel

"...By Nichola Groom
RIALTO, California (Reuters) - Fifty miles east of Los Angeles, a small and inconspicuous facility is using something most of us would rather not think about -- household sewage -- to create a resource we can't live without -- fuel.

The sludge is 80 percent water when it arrives at EnerTech's plant, where it is turned into fuel simply by removing most of that liquid.

The product customers buy is 95 percent solid and interchangeable with coal, according to Chief Executive Kevin Bolin, whose grandfather invented the company's patented "SlurryCarb" technology..."
