The energy density contained in fusion fuels is so large that a mere 0.1 g of deuterium, which is found in 3 gallons of ordinary water, would provide the domestic and industrial electricity demands for a typical American for a year. Fusion does not create greenhouse gases such as carbon ...
The declining reserves of fossil fuels and their detrimental effects on the environment have thrust nuclear power based on fission reaction into the limelight as a promising option to energy-starved economies around the world. However, the 1986 Chernobyl
This will be an important step, since nuclear fusion is much more efficient than the chemical reactions using standard fossil fuels and it is substantially safer than nuclear fission (nuclear fusion is the energy process of the stars and it combines two hydrogen isotopes, deuterium and tritium, t...
Moreover, the integrated flexible quasi-solid-state rGO/AC//rGO/HC LIC devices possess a maximum energy density of 138.3 Wh kg-1, a high power density of 11 kW kg-1, and improved cycling performance (84.4% capacitance maintained after 10,000 cycles), superior to the AC//HC LIC (43.5%...
Largely improved catalytic performances of activity, durability, and kinetics are demonstrated compared to the conventional alloy system and commercial Pt/C catalyst, due to the efficient synergism of Pt and CoSe2; the peak current density of Pt/CoSe2 for methanol (ethanol) oxidation is 87.61 (...
as substitute of inorganic electrolyte containing batteries [102], which feature high energy-storage densities as next-generation micropower storage for portable electronics, the similar enzyme-powered bioelectrode cell with fuels such as maltodextrin (starch fragment) with much higher energy density than...
“third generation” reactors being built today that have safety systems requiring no mechanical or human intervention. This leads to reactors that can make more fuel than they use and also to nuclear fusion – the energy source of the sun. “How Things Work” explores cooking/grilling, how ...

density of matter inside the neutron (and proton) reaches a fantastic value of 2*1014g/cm3. A neutron is detected by the products of its interaction with nuclei and other elementary particles (especially with protons-hydrogen nuclei). The neutron is unstable and spontaneously with a period of ...
Flexible fibrous supercapacitors (FFS) are taking account of as the energy storage devices for wearable electronics owing to their high power density, high safety, long cycle life, and simple manufacturing process. Nevertheless, FFSs have the disadvantage of low specific capacitance that results from ...
