Cactus purifies water on the cheap, finds study
a day ago Excellent article. There are other uses of Cactus.

Cactus is a versatile plant which is of care-free growth. The cultivation of nopal(OPUNTIA FICUS-INDICA), a type of cactus, is one of the most important in Mexico. According to Rodrigo Morales, Chilean engineer, Wayland biomass, installed on Mexican soil, allows you to generate inexhaustible clean energy. Through the production of biogas, it can serve as a raw material more efficiently, by example and by comparison with jatropha. Wayland Morales, head of Elqui Global Energy argues that an acre of cactus produces 43 200 m3 of biogas or the equivalent in energy terms to 25,000 liters of diesel. With the same land planted with jatropha, he says, it will produce 3,000 liters of biodiesel. Another of the peculiarities of the nopal is biogas which is the same molecule of natural gas, but its production does not require machines or devices of high complexity. Also, unlike natural gas, contains primarily methane (75%), carbon dioxide (24%) and other minor gases (1%), so it has advantages from the technical point of view since it has the same capacity heat but is cleaner, and as sum datum its calorific value is 7,000 kcal/m3. Opuntia is a CAM Plant. As the CO2 content of the air progressively declined millions of years ago, certain plants evolved specialized biochemical pathways and anatomical adaptations that enabled them to increase their intracellular CO2 concentration at the site of its fixation, which allowed the primary carboxylating enzyme rubisco to function more efficiently. The CO2 concentrating mechanism possessed by these CAM plants operates by sequentially
reducing CO2 into carbohydrates at two different times of day. The initial reduction of CO2 into a four-carbon sugar is done at night - when CAM plant stomata are open - by the enzyme PEP-carboxylase. Then, during the day when CAM plant stomata are closed, the four-carbon sugar is decarboxylated, increasing the plant's intercellular CO2 concentration, and the resulting CO2 is subsequently reduced back into a carbohydrate, but this time by rubisco. Cactus can be grown in waste lands in developing countries to produce biogas and subsequent power generation. Biogas power generators from KW size to MW are commercially available from China and Vietnam. Dr.A.Jagadeesh Nellore(AP),India
Solar-powered 'water ATMs' deliver at the last mile
2 days ago Though the method uses high tech,how reliable it is in rural areas of developing countries? Many renewable energy designs like solar PV in rural areas had limited success. Any technology that needs external personnel maintenance will meet with limited success. Technology to be successful should be:
AT - Appropriate Technology Adoptable Technology Affordable Technology Acceptable Technology Accessable Technology. Also some gadgets have instant success while others fail miserably. The examples are Bicycle Vs Solar VBox Type Solar Cooker.While bicycle which costs double or triple that of box type solar cooker,millions of bicycles are there on the roads while hardly about 600,000 Box Type solar cookers are sold(but not all of them used). The reason is ,there is no provision for frying in box type solar cooker. Only boiling. In South India no meal is served with out fried curries. There are two approaches in INNOVATION THEORY: Technology push and Demand Push. If the device meets the user needs,he will readilily accepts it. TECHNOLOGY IS CULTURE SPECIFIC while SCIENCE IS UNIVERSAL. In Developing countries Dust isa big problem. Already the efficiency of present solar PV is low. We have already seen about the dust accumulation at traffic signals.
I designed a 12 liter Solar disinfection unit which costs Rs 2000(about 300 US$) in South India and which can be fabricated locally. 99.9% pure water is obtainable when the inside temperature in the unit reaches 55 degrees Celsius(outside temperature 30 degrees Celsius.

But unfortunately in many cases Co-operation means MORE COOING AND LESS OPERATION. There are water purification methods which are cost effective available in developing countries. There is a notion in developing countries that RURAL IS BAD,URBAN IS BETTER AND FOREIGN IS THE BEST.

Germany Could Face Electricity Customer Revolt
2 days ago The article may not give the true picture of power position in Germany vis a vis Renewable Energy.
Germany's renewable energy sector is among the most innovative and successful worldwide. The share of electricity produced from renewable energy in Germany has increased from 6.3 percent of the national total in 2000 to about 25 percent in the first half of 2012. In 2011 20.5% (123.5 TWh) of Germany's electricity supply (603 TWH) was produced from renewable energy sources, more than the 2010 contribution of gas-fired power plants. Siemens chief executive, Peter Lscher believes that Germanys target of generating 35 per cent of its electricity from renewables by 2020 is achievable and, most probably, profitable for Europes largest engineering company. Nordex, Repower, Fuhrlnder and Enercon arewind power companies based in Germany. Solon SE, Q-Cells and Conergy are solar powercompanies based in Germany, which had held an important share of the world market, but have all had to file for insolvency due to Chinese competition and major cuts in guaranteed feed-in tariffs (Solon: 11/2011, Q-Cells: 4/2012, Conergy:7/2013). Every third solar panel and every second wind rotor is made in Germany, and German turbines and generators used in hydro energy generation are among the most popular worldwide. In 2010, investments totaling 26 billion euros were made in Germanys renewable energies sector. According to official figures, some 370,000 people in Germany were employed in the renewable energy sector in 2010, especially in small and medium sized companies. This is an increase of around 8 percent compared to 2009 (around 339,500 jobs), and well over twice the number of jobs in 2004 (160,500). About two-thirds of these jobs are attributed to the Renewable Energy Sources Act Germany has been called "the world's first major renewable energy economy".
However German consumers pay the highest electricity prices in Europe. However, prices are set to rise because the renewable energy surcharge is projected to increase from 5.3 cents to between 6.2 and 6.5 cents per kilowatt hour along with a higher surcharge to finance the power grids of 0.2 to 0.4 cents per kwh. In 2013 German consumers will pay 20 billion ($26 billion) for electricity from solar, wind and biogas plants to consume electricity with a market price of just over 3 billion. According to a government study, electricity will cost up to 40 cents a kilowatt-hour by 2020, a 40-percent increase over today's prices. If too much power comes from the grid, wind turbines have to be shut down, but consumers must pay for the "phantom electricity" the turbines are theoretically generating. Occasionally, the country has to pay to get rid of excess power instead of getting paid for producing it, creating "negative electricity prices". To attract investors, the government agreed to pay 19 cents per kilowatt-hour for offshore wind, 50 percent more than from land-based wind farms and assumed liability. New high-voltage power lines will transport offshore energy to western and southern Germany. Grid expansion costs are estimated at 20 billion, excluding cables to bring the power ashore. Today Energy from Renewables may be expensive compared to Conventional power but as advances in the Renewable Energy Efficiency increases, the difference will narrow down Germany is also known to offer free education to Graduate students in Universities. In Germany, most of the institutions of higher education charge no or very little tuition fee to the tune of 500 Euro per semester. However, one has to pay semester contribution ranging from Euro 50 to 250, depending upon the university and the services or benefits provided. Besides one has to take into account your living expenses of around Euro 740 a month and travel expenses to and from home country.Many developing country students got benefit from the excellent education offered in Germany compared to the very expensive education in US.

Storing Energy Isn't Always the Best Idea
2 days ago Good article on storing energy from solar and wind.
Storing energy allows humans to balance the supply and demand of energy. Energy storage systems in commercial use today can be broadly categorized as mechanical, electrical, chemical, biological and thermal. Energy storage became a dominant factor in economic development with the widespread introduction of electricity. Unlike other common energy storage in prior use such as wood or coal, electricity must be used as it is being generated, or converted immediately into another form of energy such as potential, kinetic or chemical. Until recently electrical energy has not been converted and stored on a major scale, however new efforts to that effect began in the 21st century.
An early solution to the problem of storing energy for electrical purposes was the development of the battery as an electrochemical storage device. Batteries have previously been of limited use in electric power systems due to their relatively small capacity and high cost. However, since about the middle of the first decade of the 21st century, newer battery technologies have been developed that can now provide significant utility scale load-leveling capabilities; some of which, as of 2013, showed promise of being competitive with alternative methods. A similar possible solution to deal with the intermittency issue of solar and wind energy is found in the capacitor. Some areas of the world such as Washington and Oregon in the United States, and Wales in the United Kingdom, have used geographic features to store large quantities of water in elevated reservoirs, using excess electricity at times of low demand to pump water up to the reservoirs, then letting the water pass through turbine generators to retrieve the energy when electrical demands peak. Many renewable energy sources (most notably solar and wind) produce intermittent power. Wherever intermittent power sources reach high levels of grid penetration, energy storage becomes one option to provide reliable energy supplies. Other options include recourse to peaking power plants, methane storage (excess renewable electricity to hydrogen via electrolysis, combine with CO2 (low to neutral CO2 system) to produce methane (synthetic natural gas sabatier process) with stockage in the natural gas network)[28][29]and smart grids with advanced energy demand management. The latter involves bringing "prices to devices", i.e. making electrical equipment and appliances able to adjust their operation to seek the lowest spot price of electricity. On a grid with a high penetration of renewables, low spot prices would correspond to times of high availability of wind and/or sunshine. Seasonal thermal energy storage stores heat deep in the ground via a cluster of boreholes, the Drake Landing Solar Community in Alberta, Canada has achieved a 97% solar fraction for year 'round heating, with solar collectors on the garage roofs as the heat source. In Braestrup, Denmark, the community's solar district heating system also utilizes STES, at a storage temperature of 65 oC. A heat pump, which is run only when there is surplus wind power available on the national grid, is used when extracting heat from the storage to raise the temperature to 80 oC for distribution. This helps stabilize the national grid, as well as contributing to maximal use of wind power. When surplus wind generated electricity is not available, a gas-fired boiler is used. Presently, 20% of Braestrup's heat is solar, but expansion of the facility is planned to raise the fraction to 50%. References: 1. Wild, Matthew, L.

Excellent article.
Humility is the quality of being modest and respectful. Humility, in various interpretations, is widely seen as a virtue in many religious and philosophical traditions, being connected with notions of egolessness. Mahatma Gandhi is attributed as suggesting that attempting to sustain truth without humility is doomed to cause it to become instead an "arrogant caricature" of truth.
Various religions teach us on humility and tolerance. Humility is considered an important virtue in Taoism. The following quote describes how a wise person should see his accomplishments, according to the Tao Te Ching (77.4) [a wise person] acts without claiming the results as his; he achieves his merit and does not rest (arrogantly) in it: -- he does not wish to display his superiority.
The spiritual teacher Meher Baba held that humility is one of the foundations of devotional life: "Upon the altar of humility we must offer our prayers to God." Baba also described the power of humility to overcome hostility: "True humility is strength, not weakness. It disarms antagonism and ultimately conquers it." "One of the most difficult things to learn is to render service without bossing, without making a fuss about it and without
any consciousness of high and low. In the world of spirituality, humility counts at least as much as utility.
Humility is a deep aspect of Sikhism preached as Nimrata. According to Sikhism All have to bow in humility before God. The fruit of humility is intuitive peace and pleasure
In the Qur'an, Arabic words conveying the meaning of "humility" are used, and the very term "Islam" can be interpreted as meaning "surrender (to God), humility
Hinduism has preached about humility and egoless state through numerous sacred scripts and sages which dates back to 55002600 BCE.Hinduism has influenced many originating religions like Buddhism, Sikhism and Jainism regarding egoless state and nirvana or mukti. Eknath Easwaran writes that the Gita's subject is "the war within, the struggle for self-mastery that every human being must wage if he or she is to emerge from life victorious", and "The language of battle is often found in the scriptures, for it conveys the strenuous, long, drawn-out campaign we must wage to free ourselves from the tyranny of the ego, the cause of all our suffering and sorrow". To get in touch with your true self, whether you call that God, Brahman, etc., one has to kill the ego. The Sanskrit word Ahamkara literally translates into The-sound-of-I, or quite simply the sense of the self or ego. When this sound is stilled, you are in touch with your true being. In Buddhism, humility is equivalent to a concern of how to be liberated from the sufferings of life and the vexations of the human mind. The ultimate aim is to achieve a state of enlightenment through meditation and other spiritual practices. Humility can also result from achieving the liberation of Nirvana
Catholic texts view humility as annexed to the cardinal virtue of temperance. It is viewed as a potential part of temperance because temperance includes all those virtues that restrain or express the inordinate movements of our desires or appetites.
Affliction is the wholesome soil of virtue, where patience, honor, sweet humility, and calm fortitude, take root and strongly flourish.- David Mallet

Extended Breast-Feeding: Is It More Common Than We Think? | Healthland | TIME.com
a year ago
Babies have a sucking reflex that enables them to suck and swallow milk. It is a natural process in animals too like cow, goat, dog etc.
Not all the properties of breast milk are understood, but its nutrient content is relatively stable. Breast milk is made from nutrients in the mother's bloodstream and bodily stores. Breast milk has just the right amount of fat, sugar, water, and protein that is needed for a baby's growth and development. Because breastfeeding uses an average of 500 calories a day it helps the mother lose weight after giving birth. The composition of breast milk changes depending on how long the baby nurses at each session, as well as on the age of the child.
The World Health Organization (WHO) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) emphasize the value of breastfeeding for mothers as well as children. Both recommend exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life. The AAP recommends that this be followed by supplemented breastfeeding for at least one year, while WHO recommends that supplemented breastfeeding continue up to two years or more. While recognizing the superiority of breastfeeding, regulating authorities also work to minimize the risks of artificial feeding.

The mineral called Pectin, is found in large amounts in an apple. It is the same element that is found in antidiarrheal drugs. The peel of the apple is extremely rich in vitamin A, whereas the actual fruit contains vitamin C, B-1, B-2, B-6, folic and pantothenic acid. You will also find minerals such as potassium and small amounts of copper, magnesium and phosphorus.

Paint Your Roofs White - Bill Clinton - Business - The Atlantic
2 years ago Yes. Bill Clinton it is an age old practice to have white wash(made from calcium) in the olden days both
outside and inside houses. Whiteness reflects back . With fashion pervading such proven practices are vanishing. I developed a simple passive cooling method. There are cl;ay covers which are used on the clay pot(water preservation). These clay covers are of convex when they are inverted. These can be of about one and half feet in diameter. These can be put on the roof top and they are given white wash. The whiteness reflects back and the sun light has to pass through the thick layer of the Clay Cover besides air trapped between the clay cover and ground surface. Still air acts as insulator. I tested these . The temperature inside the room drops by about 5 degrees Celsius. Unfortunately in the developing countries(sunbelt countries),we heat the house first and then begin to cool it with Fans and AC. Here Traditional methods(like natural cooling with cross ventilation) help. Why in Gulf people wear white clothes. Because being sunny white clothes radiate less.

Good post on OTEC. There is an ENERGY ISLAND concept developed by Dominic Michaelis:
OTEC power stations suggest the creation of such islands, mainly for power generation, but possibly also for many other complementary applications, whence the concept of the Energy Island. One of the main problems encountered by most OTEC projects is the relatively low temperature differential between the deeper waters at 5C and the tropical surface waters at around 25C, limiting the thermodynamic efficiency of the conversion plant. The Energy Island concept is to bring together on a single floating structure a variety of renewable energy conversion systems to maximise the energy production available from the diverse sources available, so that the interrelated systems can assist each other to reach greater efficiencies of conversion. The Energy Island is designed principally for tropical waters, but variants for higher latitudes can also be considered. The basic island could be of hexagonal plan, so that it could readily be joined to other units to form cluster or linear plans as required. A hexagon made up of 6 equilateral triangles of 300 meter long sides would have a longest cross distance of 600 meters and a shortest cross distance of 520 meters. Its area would be 234 000 m(2), or 23,4 hectares. It's size would guarantee it's stability in heavy seas. These would include :WIND ENERGY Wind Energy varies from site to site, but is generally more plentiful at sea, without the interference of land features. In these conditions, to maximise wind energy collection, aerogenerators would be mounted on height adjustable hydraulic masts allowing collection at different heights where one mill would be in the lee of another. On a 600 meter wide platform, it is proposed to place 3 low level 70 meter diameter mills and 3 high level diameter mills, each capable of generating 3 MW (el). The total peak output is 18 MW peak. SEA CURRENT ENERGY Sea current Energy is very site dependent, but it is assumed that a cowled turbine assembly 500 meters across perpendicular to a constant current flow can generate 2MW / 100 meters, or a total of 10 MW. WAVE ENERGY Although in tropical waters, the average wave energy profile is far from the 50 kW / meter average of the North Sea, a figure of 15 kW / meter can be expected. Since one of the problems of OTEC systems lies in the vast volumes of water that need to be shifted, wave energy could be used directly to induce these flows without going through the inefficiencies of electricity generation. With a 600 meter long front, a 9 MW resource is achieved, of which it is assumed that 2/3 can be transferred to usable hydraulic power, a 6 MW contribution. SOLAR ENERGY Many different solar collector systems can be considered over the 22 hectare platform, ranging from PV arrays to concentrating thermal systems. The hexagonal plan lends itself particularly well to "Power Tower" systems in tropical latitudes. The highest collection efficiencies, around 75%, are achieved by such high temperature "Power Tower" type concentrators, which, at 800C, allow a secondary conversion ratio to electricity of 40%, an overall efficiency of 30%. The total peak contribution from wind, wave, current and solar sources amount to a 47,5 MW electric, 6 MW hydraulic and 20,25 MW relatively high grade thermal energy, a total of 73,75 MW. OTEC Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion, (OTEC) has the greatest potential energy output, since the resource, solar heated surface sea water is virtually infinite, as is the cooling capacity of the cold layers of the greater sea depths. Boosted OTEC will be the greatest energy contributor to the Energy Island, using the other forms of energy created on the island to insure its regular output, boosting its thermal efficiency and assisting in its functions, thereby reducing its requirements normally taken from its own output. Thermal input, either of waste heat, or possibly even of heat pumped thermal energy using the island generated electricity to raise the temperature of the surface resource could result in a shorter cold water pipe (CWP) which represents a great proportion of OTEC costs and energy use, allowing more site flexibility to the Energy Island itself. This consequent lower necessary depth would also result in simpler and cheaper mooring mechanisms. More work needs to be done on the CWP concept, for instance looking at a reversed heat pipe, whereby the saturated vapour would be circulated through the pipe to a low level condenser, the working fluid only being pumped to the surface.

The Brazilian stampede
3 years ago
Yes. Brazil Economy is booming. Here are more details: Brazil is the largest national economy in Latin America, the world's eighth largest economy at market exchange rates and the ninth largest in purchasing power parity (PPP), according to the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. Brazil has a free market economy with abundant natural resources. The Brazilian economy has been predicted to become one of the five largest in the world in the decades to come, the GDP per capita following and growing. Its current GDP (PPP) per capita is $10,200, putting Brazil in the 64th
position according to World Bank data. It has large and developed agricultural, mining, manufacturing and service sectors, as well as a large labor pool. Brazilian exports are booming, creating a new generation of tycoons. Major export products include aircraft, electrical equipment, automobiles, ethanol, textiles, footwear, iron ore, steel, coffee, orange juice, soybeans and corned beef. The country has been expanding its presence in international financial and commodities markets, and is one of a group of four emerging economies called the BRIC countries. Brazil's economy is diverse, encompassing agriculture, industry, and many services. The recent economic strength has been due in part to a global boom in commodities prices with exports from beef to soybeans soaring. Agriculture and allied sectors like forestry, logging and fishing accounted for 5.1% of the gross domestic product in 2007, a performance that puts agribusiness in a position of distinction in terms of Brazil's trade balance, in spite of trade barriers and subsidizing policies adopted by the developed countries. The industry from automobiles, steel and petrochemicals to computers, aircraft, and consumer durables accounted for 30.8% of the gross domestic product. Industry, which is often technologically advanced, is highly concentrated in metropolitan So Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Campinas, Porto Alegre, and Belo Horizonte. Brazil is the world's tenth largest energy consumer with much of its energy coming from renewable sources, particularly hydroelectricity and ethanol; nonrenewable energy is mainly produced from oil and natural gas. A global power in agriculture and natural resources, Brazil experienced tremendous economic growth over the past three decades. It is expected to become a major oil producer and exporter, having recently made huge oil discoveries. Brazil is the world's third largest aircraft producer.(Source: Wikipedia).

Excellent Editorial on Crystalloraphy. Crystallography is a tool that is often employed by materials scientists. In single crystals, the effects of the crystalline arrangement of atoms is often easy to see macroscopically, because the natural shapes of crystals reflect the atomic structure. In addition, physical properties are often controlled by crystalline defects. The understanding of crystal structures is an important prerequisite for understanding crystallographic defects. Mostly, materials do not occur in a single crystalline, but poly-crystalline form, such that the powder diffraction method plays a most important role in structural determination. A number of other physical properties are linked to crystallography. For example, the minerals in clay form small, flat, plate like structures. Clay can be easily deformed because the plate like particles can slip along each other in the plane of the plates, yet remain strongly connected in the direction perpendicular to the plates. Such mechanisms can be studied by crystallographic texture measurements. In another example, iron transforms from a body-centered cubic (bcc) structure to a face-centered cubic (fcc) structure called austenite when it is heated. The fcc structure is a close-packed structure, and the bcc structure is not, which explains why the volume of the iron decreases when this transformation occurs. Crystallography is useful in phase identification. When performing any process on a material, it may be desired to find out what compounds and what phases are present in the material. Each phase has a characteristic arrangement of atoms. Techniques like X-ray or neutron diffraction can be used to identify
which patterns are present in the material, and thus which compounds are present. Crystallography covers the enumeration of the symmetry patterns which can be formed by atoms in a crystal and for this reason has a relation to group theory and geometry.

Outstanding article on X-ray crystallography. X-ray crystallography is a tool used for determining the atomic and molecular structure of a crystal, in which the crystalline atoms cause a beam of X-rays to diffract into many specific directions. By measuring the angles and intensities of these diffracted beams, acrystallographer can produce a three-dimensional picture of the density of electrons within the crystal. From this electron density, the mean positions of the atoms in the crystal can be determined, as well as their chemical bonds, their disorder and various other information. Since many materials can form crystalssuch as salts, metals, minerals, semiconductors, as well as various inorganic, organic and biological moleculesX-ray crystallography has been fundamental in the development
of many scientific fields. In its first decades of use, this method determined the size of atoms, the lengths and types of chemical bonds, and the atomic-scale differences among various materials, especially minerals and alloys. The method also revealed the structure and function of many biological molecules, includingvitamins, drugs, proteins and nucleic acids such as DNA. X-ray crystallography is still the chief method for characterizing the atomic structure of new materials and in discerning materials that appear similar by other experiments. X-ray crystal structures can also account for unusual electronic or elastic properties of a material, shed light on chemical interactions and processes, or serve as the basis for designing pharmaceuticals against diseases.

Excellent Editorial on Crystalloraphy. Crystallography is a tool that is often employed by materials scientists. In single crystals, the effects of the crystalline arrangement of atoms is often easy to see macroscopically, because the natural shapes of crystals reflect the atomic structure. In addition, physical properties are often controlled by crystalline defects. The understanding of crystal structures is an important prerequisite for understanding crystallographic defects. Mostly, materials do not occur in a single crystalline, but poly-crystalline form, such that the powder diffraction method plays a most important role in structural determination. A number of other physical properties are linked to crystallography. For example, the minerals in clay form small, flat, plate like structures. Clay can be easily deformed because the plate like particles can slip along each other in the plane of the plates, yet remain strongly connected in the direction perpendicular to the plates. Such mechanisms can be studied by crystallographic texture measurements. In another example, iron transforms from a body-centered cubic (bcc) structure to a face-centered cubic (fcc) structure called austenite when it is heated. The fcc structure is a close-packed structure, and the bcc structure is not, which explains why the volume of the iron decreases when this transformation occurs. Crystallography is useful in phase identification. When performing any process on a material, it may be
desired to find out what compounds and what phases are present in the material. Each phase has a characteristic arrangement of atoms. Techniques like X-ray or neutron diffraction can be used to identify which patterns are present in the material, and thus which compounds are present. Crystallography covers the enumeration of the symmetry patterns which can be formed by atoms in a crystal and for this reason has a relation to group theory and geometry.
Molecular structures: The crystal century
o
Excellent story on Crystallography in this century.
History: Women in crystallography
o
Very inspiring Story on Great Women Scientists in Crystallography.
Crystallography: Atomic secrets
o
Outstanding article on X-ray crystallography. X-ray crystallography is a tool used for determining the atomic and molecular structure of a crystal, in which the crystalline atoms cause a beam of X-rays to diffract into many specific directions. By measuring the angles and intensities of these diffracted beams, acrystallographer can produce a three-dimensional picture of the density of electrons within the crystal. From this electron density, the mean positions of the atoms in the crystal can be determined, as well as their chemical bonds, their disorder and various other information.
Since many materials can form crystalssuch as salts, metals, minerals, semiconductors, as well as various inorganic, organic and biological moleculesX-ray crystallography has been fundamental in the development of many scientific fields. In its first decades of use, this method determined the size of atoms, the lengths and types of chemical bonds, and the atomic-scale differences among various materials, especially minerals and alloys. The method also revealed the structure and function of many biological molecules, includingvitamins, drugs, proteins and nucleic acids such as DNA. X-ray crystallography is still the chief method for characterizing the atomic structure of new materials and in discerning materials that appear similar by other experiments. X-ray crystal structures can also account for unusual electronic or elastic properties of a material, shed light on chemical interactions and processes, or serve as the basis for designing pharmaceuticals against diseases.
