Fuel from disused tyres
Research is seeking a solution for used tyres by means of catalytic pyrolysis
10-Aug-2020
Used tyres pose a serious environmental risk owing to the damage that may be caused when they are stored in the environment. They are emerging in ever greater numbers from one year to the next in developed countries so revalorizing them is a subject that is attracting great interest and is being ...
A quantum simulator of impossible physics
In an unusual experiment atoms are made to simulate absurd actions
12-Oct-2015
The researchers in the two groups have succeeded in getting a trapped atom to imitate behaviours that contradict its own fundamental laws, thus taking elements of science fiction to the microscopic world. "We have managed to get an atom to act as if it were infringing the nature of atomic ...
'Green chemistry' to quantify the components of cosmetics
A UPV/EHU-University of the Basque Country researcher has developed and applied three methods to analyze various compounds in cosmetics
02-Jun-2015
Cosmetics is an important industry worldwide and has attained high levels of sophistication. There are over 10,000 components that can be used to make cosmetics; so it is essential to monitor these components to guarantee consumer safety. Regulation 1223/2009 approved by the European Union in ...

07-May-2008
Methanol fuel cells are an efficient and sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, but they are still not economically viable Nevertheless, for his PhD, University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) research chemist, José E. Barranco, has developed new materials that enable the manufacture of cheaper ...
Magnetic atoms of gold, silver and copper have been obtained
03-Mar-2008
An international team led by Physics and Chemistry teams from the Faculty of Science and Technology at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) and directed by Professor Jose Javier Saiz Garitaonandia, has achieved, by means of a controlled chemical process, that atoms of gold, silver and ...
A researcher of UPV/EHU has designed nanomagnets for industry
15-Feb-2008
It is well known that current technology tends to design tools that are ever smaller and that nanotechnology, although it its infancy, is a theme that is very much in fashion in our society. Who has not heard of nanotubes, nanoparticles and nanomagnets, etc? The PhD thesis by Ms Sonia Moralejo ...
