The iQOO 11 launched back in December of last year, and its successor is already in the works. So far we’ve heard that the iQOO 12 would use the OmniVision OV50H sensor for its main rear camera, a 1/1.28″ size 50 MP sensor with 1.2µm pixels. Then, rumor had it the iQOO 12 would ship with a 64 MP periscope zoom camera with the OmniVision OV64B sensor. Today, these specs have once again been reiterated by the prolific Digital Chat Station from China. He adds some new, previously undisclosed information about the iQOO 12 too.

Growth of hydration products in pores of biochar . Credit: Cement and Concrete Composites (2023). DOI: 10.1016/j.cemconcomp.2023.105204 Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activities are the primary drivers of climate change and rising global temperatures. Among the many anthropogenic activities resulting in CO2 emissions, those undertaken by the construction industry have a significant carbon footprint. Therefore, it is essential to mitigate these emissions by switching to low-carbon sustainable construction materials that use bio-based constituents. One such popular bio-based alternative is biochar. Biochar is the carbon-rich product of the thermochemical conversion of biomass in an oxygen-deficient environment, which has found use…
Conference will take place October 25 at the Vancouver Convention Centre.

The continuous clean-up and recovery of large-scale viscous oil spills are demonstrated. Credit: Nature Sustainability (2023). DOI: 10.1038/s41893-023-01217-2 To combat the extreme environmental toll of major oil spills, researchers at The University of Texas at Austin have created a technology that could significantly improve cleanup capabilities compared with current methods. The new technology uses a dual-layer mesh roller coupled with an induction heating technique, with material properties that allow it to separate oil from water and then remove that oil from the ocean with high efficiency and…
