Scientists from Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, find a way to convert undesirable heat energy from electronic devices to electricity and reconverting this into electricity using the concept of thermoelectric effect - a physical phenomenon where a difference in the temperature between two contacts leads to a difference in the voltage, and hence flow of electricity.
Researchers from BITS-Pilani, Hyderabad, have developed a safer, fluoride-free synthesis method for metal-organic frameworks that significantly boosts their capacity to capture greenhouse gases and store clean fuels at room temperature.
