A number of technologies are being used for producing and manufacturing number of items across the globe. Billions of amount being spent on using latest technologies for making them more environmental friendly. Lots of efforts are being taken for making zero pollution industries.

Nanotechnology has so far achieved many solutions but it is still unable to produce a few pollution free products. The scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory has recently come up with a new clean technology.

Scientists has come up with a scientifically elegant way to produce ethylene. Ceramist Balu Balachandran and his research team has devised a high temperature membrane through which ethylene can be produced directly from ethane. This new membrane removes hydrogen from ethane and the technology is absolutely pollution free.
