Across the U.S., new recycling technologies are transforming how we recover valuable materials and helping protect workers in the process. At WM’s Cascade Recycling Center in Washington state, a $40 million upgrade has created one of the most advanced material...
Electronic waste is piling up fast, with global projections reaching 80 million metric tons by 2030. But thanks to a breakthrough by researchers at Cornell University, that trash could soon become treasure, both for resource recovery and the planet. A...
The U.S. wastes over 30% of all food produced, costing billions and fueling methane emissions from landfills. In response, the USDA, EPA, and FDA recently launched a long-overdue plan: the National Strategy for Reducing Food Loss and Waste and Recycling...
After six years of dormancy, the Ojai Valley Organics (OVO) recycling facility has reopened, offering a powerful example of community-driven environmental stewardship and innovation in organics recycling. Operated by Progressive Environmental Industries (PEI), the facility on Old Baldwin Road is...
Cities and organizations across North America are accelerating organics recycling and waste diversion thanks to a wave of new funding initiatives—many supported by state and federal programs. In Michigan, $5.6 million in Circular Economy Grants were awarded through the NextCycle...
Going green in the lab? Turns out, it's not just about hugging trees, it's about smart science! Labs everywhere are getting serious about sustainability, and guess what? You don't have to ditch awesome results to be eco-friendly. That's where Viasensor.info...
For engineers and researchers charting the course towards a sustainable future, the allure of carbon capture and utilization (CCU) technologies is strong. Turning a potent greenhouse gas into valuable products like methanol and methane, the so-called "power-to-X" pathway, holds immense...
In a world racing toward clean energy innovation, the smallest variables can make or break tomorrow’s big discoveries. Inside laboratories across the globe, renewable energy engineers are quietly waging war, not against fossil fuels, but against temperature spikes, humidity drops,...
