Salute to ionocaloric cooling: a new manner to lower the mercury that can substitute existing methods with something more secure and friendlier to the earth.Common refrigeration systems transport warmth far from an area through a gas that cools as it propagates some distance away. As efficient as this method is, some of the choice...
Image credit: Kateryna Kon/Shutterstock.comThe neurodegenerative illness affects millions of individuals globally. As our life expectancy grows, more individuals will be affected in the coming years.
