Often associated with refreshing a sense of being renewed and a peaceful calmness, raindrops may soon become tiny engines of clean energy. Researchers at the Nanjing University of Aeronautics and ...

Chinese researchers have recently developed a floating hydrovoltaic device that harvests electricity from raindrops.

A new water-integrated droplet electricity generator produces high electrical output while floating on water surfaces. Raindrops are not only a source of fresh water, they also carry unused energy ...

Generating electricity from raindrops efficiently has gone one step further. A research team led by scientists from the City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has recently developed a droplet-based ...

Raindrops are more than just a source of fresh water—they also carry untapped energy that falls freely from the sky. Scientists have long sought to ...

(Nanowerk News) Hydropower is nothing new, but harnessing the energy in waves, tides and raindrops has remained elusive because conventional technology does not efficiently convert low-frequency ...

A team of engineers has figured out how to take a single drop of rain and use it to generate a powerful flash of electricity. The City University of Hong Kong researchers behind the device, which they ...

Researchers use powerful microchannel droplet generation equipment to create uniform polymer microsphere materials, which have high economic values. These microspheres are spherical microparticles ...

Sphere Fluidics, a company developing single cell analysis systems underpinned by its patented picodroplet technology, and Heriot-Watt University, a specialist, pioneering Scottish University, today ...
