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 categorized the microplastics found in Mumbai's mangroves to estimate the extent of the pollution from these tiny threats in the ecosystem.
