Enhanced Battolyser stores electricity four times faster than before

A new 3D design for electrodes enables the Battolyser™, a battery and electrolyser in one, to store twice the amount of electricity it could previously hold and do so four times faster. Researchers from Delft University of Technology have detailed their findings in the scientific journal Cell Reports Physical Science. The Battolyser now charges and produces hydrogen at a rate comparable to current electrolysers, all without relying on scarce precious metals. This increased capacity saves both space and costs.

Early attempt at colour photography discovered

Delft University of Technology has unearthed six glass slides (1890 – 1910), which represent one of the earliest attempts at colour photography. The slides were found during an inventory conducted by the Programme Tailor-Made Approach to Faculty Collections at the Imaging Physics department of the Faculty of Applied Sciences. To view the images, technician Thim Zuidwijk reconstructed a diffraction chromoscope, revealing vivid depictions of a vase with a floral motif and a still life of a fruit basket alongside a banana and a wrapped citrus fruit.
