Indian Railways To Produce Hydrogen Powered Trains Instead Of Diesel
Following the footsteps of a few countries that have adopted the hydrogen fuel conversion method for their trains, Indian Railways also intends to produce hydrogen powered trains. Indian Railways revealed its plans to bid for the hydrogen fuel cell-based technology "Diesel Electric Multiple Unit (DEMU)" from September 21- October 5, 2021. Notably, the conversion from diesel to hydrogen engines will also reduce carbon emissions, and bidding… read-more

Re-Lithiation Process Discovered To Revive Dead Lithium-Ion Batteries
Finland’s Aalto University has developed a way to revive dead lithium-ion batteries, refurbishing them for reuse with a process called "re-lithiation". It uses a process of electrolysis to rejuvenate the lithium in the battery electrodes, reversing the loss of lithium due to use. Although the re-lithiation battery would not be as good as new, it can be used for a considerable amount of time before being rendered useless.
