Nanoparticles increases efficiency of bio-fuels

A recent research by an Indian Research indicated that the use of Alumina Nanoparticles can be helpful to improve the efficiency and combustion of bio-diesel. The thinking behind this is that because of their high surface-to-volume ratio, the nanoparticles have more reactive surfaces, which allows them to have more reactivity and hence allowing them to act as more efficient chemical catalyst, which thus increases fuel combustion as told by R. B. Anand, an associate professor of mechanical engineering at the National Institute of Technology in Tiruchirappalli, India. This is because the more the surface area the more will be the reactivity...

Use of Lasik Technolgy for treatment of Vision disorders

Lasik Technology is an effective technology being used by the surgeon these days. Lasik Technology included the treatment of various vision disorders like Hyperopia (long sightedness), Myopia (Short sightedness) and astigmatism. Lasik technology has been discovered earlier in 1950’s, by the Spanish ophthalmologist Jose Barraquer. At that time he named it as Keratomileusis. Afterwards in 1989, an official U.S patent was granted to Dr. Gholam A. Peyman, as a "method for modifying corneal curvature". Lasik surgery uses special kind of Laser. With the help of Laser a small flap or segment is being cut off in order to change the shape of the...

Different types of Eye Problems-How to cure them

Common people have a mindset that weakness of eyes or lack of Vitamin-A are the only causes of specs. Eyes are like a camera. When the axial lengths of eyes are normal then the image of distant things falls at the right place. If the axial lengths of the eyes are 1mm greater than normal then, the person has to put up specs of -6.00D.  Opposite to this if, the axial length of the eyes are 1mm short than normal then the image get formed behind the retina. It can be treated with +6.00D specs. In third type of vision problems the focus of the image falls at two points on retina.  It is correctable by putting cylindrical lenses. People...

Nano Generator to generate free electricity in Future

In today’s world energy is a major requirement by all of us. In fact every portable device like laptops, radio and all requires electrical power and that comes with the help of batteries. But as Science is developing day by day, so in this advancement it has been seen that nano-wires which are not much expensive can produce a descent amount of electrical energy from mechanical energy. These can be done by running medical implants from pulsing blood vessels and our mobile phones can be charged using nanowires in the soles of shoes.  According to Zhong Lin Wang, Professor of materials science at Georgia Tech who is one of the prominent...
