The gas-filtering membranes developed by MIT spinout Osmoses offer an alternative to energy-hungry thermal separation for chemicals and fuels.

Founded by three MIT alumni, Gensaic uses AI-guided protein design to deliver RNA and other therapeutic molecules to specific cells or areas of the body.

Fast Company reporter Adele Peters spotlights Electrified Thermal Solutions, an MIT startup that has developed a new “thermal battery” that could be used to help power factories manufacturing energy-intensive materials like steel and cement. “The battery uses power from the grid to heat its custom bricks when electricity is cheap,” explains Peters. “When a factory needs hot air later, it’s provided by the superheated bricks.”

Electrified Thermal Solutions is a participant in START.nano, MIT.nano's hard technology accelerator!
