Researchers have shown that iron oxide layers can convert kinetic energy of saltwater into electrical power. There are many ways to generate electricity -- batteries ...

July 30 (UPI) --Researchers have developed a new way to generate electricity by moving saltwater across thin films of iron oxide, or rust. The discovery, detailed this week in the journal PNAS, could ...

It's not unusual to find rust around salt water, but now the pairing might actually be useful. Researchers at Caltech and Northwestern University have found that electricity can be produced when salt ...

There are many ways to generate electricity--batteries, solar panels, wind turbines, and hydroelectric dams, to name a few examples. .... And now there's rust. New research conducted by scientists at ...
