GE has demonstrated technology aimed at addressing one of the biggest challenges with fracking: water pollution.

Hydraulic fracturing—or fracking—has unlocked vast amounts of oil and natural gas from shale rock in the United States, and has the potential to do the same around the globe (see “Natural Gas Changes the Energy Map”). But fracking also consumes huge quantities of water, which it contaminates with a heady mix of toxic chemicals, a problem that threatens to slow this expansion.

GE says it has a technology that could help—an energy-efficient process that could cut the cost of water treatment in half. The technology could also decrease the chances of toxic waste spills.

Startup Shows Off Its Cheaper Grid Battery

Startup Sun Catalytix is designing a flow battery for grid energy storage that uses custom materials derived from inexpensive commodity chemicals. It joins dozens of other companies seeking to make a device that can cheaply and reliably provide multiple hours of power to back up intermittent wind and solar power.

The MIT spinoff, which hopes to differentiate itself with a novel chemistry and inexpensive mechanical systems, is testing a small-scale five-kilowatt prototype. It projects that a full-scale system, which it expects to make in 2015 or 2016, will cost under $300 per kilowatt-hour, or less than half as much as the sodium-sulfur batteries now used for multihour grid storage.

ULMA Construccion Torontoko goialdeetara heldu da

Four Seasons dorrea, Torontoko obra enblematikoa, ULMA Construccionek Kanadan egin dituen lehenengo obretakoa da. Yorkvilleren erdi-erdian kokatuta, kultur jarduera ugariko zonaldean, hiriko metro koadro garestienak eta desiratuenak hartzen ditu. 57 solairurekin eta 204 metroko altuerarekin, obra jada guztiz bukatuta dago. Hiriaren erdian bertan egoteak aparteko neurriak hartu beharra eskatu zuen. Obra aitzindaria da HWS Babes Perimetral Autoigokariaren sistema erabiltzeari dagokionez.

Fatxada Aireztatuen linearen webgunea egokitu eta argitaratu berri dugu, 3 gama berri merkaturatu direla baliatuz: Creaktive, Easy eta Vanguard.

Gu motibatzen gaituena da arkitektoei euren Proiektura egokituko diren aukera desberdinak eskaintzea, eta horrek hiru proposamen desberdin hauek garatzea ahalbidetu digu:

These HIT startups are using the cloud to help providers and business associates comply with HIPAA.

With the enforcement of the HIPAA Omnibus final rule starting this week, health IT companies face liability for breaches of patients’ protected health information that they may never have faced before. It’s also making issues like Bring Your Own Device even mores stressful for CIOs as they figure out how to make any instances of PHI on these devices secure enough to withstand an audit if the devices get lost or stolen.

Minubo Raises €1M From Seedcamp, Tola Capital, HTG, And Others, To Help Online Retailers Become More Data-Driven

As more and more retailers continue to set up shop online, producing a lot of customer and other actionable data along the way, it follows that those businesses that are able to become data-driven will likely develop a competitive advantage. Larger e-commerce companies have known this for a long time and have the internal IT muscle to build out their own Business Intelligence systems or buy in expensive off-the-shelf Enterprise solutions — an option that isn’t available to the majority of online shops.
