Hydrogen-Powered Plasma Torch Decimates Plastic Waste in a Blink

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-10-19 01:30:56

Why sort plastic when you can blast it to oblivion? Sounds extreme, but that’s the idea behind a new technology with the potential to “realize the era of zero plastic sorting”—while minimizing carbon emissions, too. In a press release today, the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials (KIMMS) announced the development of a plasma torch that annihilates plastic waste in less than 0.01 seconds—about ten times faster than a blink. The torch is entirely powered by hydrogen and converts mixed plast

The first iPhone with all-screen display could arrive next year: report

9to5mac.com Ryan Christoffel 2025-10-19 13:47:11

The dream of an edge-to-edge iPhone display with no cutout could come true sooner than we thought. Per a new analyst report, next year’s iPhone Fold might be the first iPhone to move camera components under the display, thus offering a truly all-screen design. iPhone Fold expected to feature under-display front camera When Apple launched the iPhone X in 2017, it touted a “gorgeous all-glass design.” But as we all know, that design included a notch, which in 2022 shrank into the Dynamic Island.

Leaked Gaza Plans Show Trump May ‘Relocate’ Palestinians to Build ‘AI-Powered Smart Cities’

For the past two years, the U.S. has been supplying tens of billions of dollars worth of military aid to Israel so that it can bomb the living crap out of the civilian population in Gaza. Now, as multiple human rights organizations accuse Israel of committing genocide in the region, America’s billionaire developer president seems to think it’s time to spin the bloodshed into real estate gold.

Polyethylene, in particular, is the most widely produced plastic in the world, with more than 100 million tons distributed annually.
