The transport of dense gases and liquids is becoming increasingly relevant in relation to carbon capture. New research is helping us understand more about how this can be done most efficiently.
They won’t feature at this year’s World Championships in Trondheim, but NTNU researchers believe the world’s fastest and most flexible cross-country skis will be ready for the 2027 World Championships in Falun.
Two associate professors at NTNU have been awarded roughly NOK 43 million from the European Research Council to study molecular models and gene variations that can affect animal survival.
Here’s how Norway can limit the loss of an all-important substance, phosphorus.
Industry needs a lot of pure oxygen. New materials that are affordable and robust can provide us with cheaper and more sustainable oxygen production.
In the future, your apple core may end up fuelling a Boeing. New research could help make the production of aviation fuel from biomass more efficient.
Plastic food packaging can contain chemicals that affect your hormones, metabolism and the transmission of signals in your body.
Seaweed and kelp, or macroalgae, are used in many products, and may become an even more important resource in the future. Artificial intelligence can help us avoid overusing this valuable resource.
Calculations that previously took a year can now be performed in just 10 days by computers connected in a special way.
Norway’s law on mining seabed minerals is too unclear, the knowledge base too flimsy, and the Storting’s White Paper on seabed mining does not hold water.
ERC grants an international research group EUR 10 million to study how plants cope with drought. NTNU contributes with expertise and advanced equipment.
How can we decarbonize large-scale power generation and aviation as quickly as possible? The European Research Council has awarded a substantial grant to a team of researchers who will explore this.
Researchers at NTNU are searching for materials that could be used to make Li-ion batteries with a higher energy density.
New research could lead to better weather forecasts and climate models.
Arctic researchers have travelled north to study ice and life in the Arctic Ocean. They discovered a creature at a depth of 3500 metres, a “dumbo octopus” dancing in the deep waters in a ballerina’s skirt.
Plastic is useful but also poses an environmental problem. Scientists are now using enzymes from bacteria and fungi to break down plastic.
New research on semiconductors using microscopes that provide 3-D models at an atomic level could one day have an impact on your electronic gadgets.
The interplay between mercury and manganese in Arctic seawater may explain a surprising drop researchers found in mercury levels in the Barents Sea during the winter.
Dye pigments are often toxic, so researchers around the world have long been looking for effective ways to make non-toxic, recyclable and sustainable colours instead. The answer lies in nanotechnology and nature’s own methods.
Plastic consumer products contain chemicals that may promote the development of overweight and obesity.
A new method using nanowires can make solar panels much more efficient and much cheaper than today.
New research confirms that fluorinated compounds in ski waxes affect organs in mice.
Scientists find remarkable similarities in the olfactory pathways of such diverse creatures as humans and insects.
