Sustainable urban mobility: Data-based insights for a future with only seamless public transport

Illustrative future automated transit (non-private) vehicle for urban mobility.

Research being carried out by Professor Avishai (Avi) Ceder from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology offers a fresh global perspective of the current situation of urban transport. He examines opportunities for us to move towards sustainable urban mobility that could substantially reduce road traffic damages and its global impact. Using data from 19 countries and 17 major cities, Ceder measures […]

Turning salt water into fresh water with capacitive deionization cycling

Dr Matthew Suss researches capacative deionization cycling to make the process of desalination more efficient

Fresh water is one of the key ingredients for sustaining human life. Obtaining sufficient quantities of safe and drinkable water remains a challenge, however. One important approach is to make use of salt water from our unusable water through a process known as desalination. Professor Matthew Suss at the Technion Israel Institute of Technology, with his PhD candidates Mr Eric […]
