A next-generation and disruptive technology for more energy-efficient way

Molecular cages, in which guest molecules cling to the cages’ outer surfaces rather than enter an internal cavity, could cut the environmental impact of separating mixtures of industrial chemicals, research from KAUST suggests. Molecular separations performed at scale by the chemical industry collectively account for as much as 15 percent of global energy consumption. One Read more about A next-generation and disruptive technology for more energy-efficient way[…]

Retail delivery via drones is being viewed as a truly disruptive technology

Researchers at The University of Texas at Dallas say drone technology has the potential to be a genuine game changer in the retail industry, with its promise to enable retailers to offer unheard-of delivery lead times and near-perfect delivery-time customization adaptability. In a new study, recently published online in Production and Operations Management, three faculty members Read more about Retail delivery via drones is being viewed as a truly disruptive technology[…]
