Oil and gas extraction in places like Texas’ Permian Basin leads to several waste products, including significant amounts of wastewater and flares firing into the sky. Texas Engineer Vaibhav Bahadur is researching how those byproducts, which are harmful to the environment, could be repurposed to serve as key elements in the creation of “green” hydrogen.
Bahadur, an associate professor in the Walker Department of Mechanical Engineering, recently published a new paper in the journal Desalination about a new way to potentially produce green hydrogen. It involves using the energy wasted via gas flaring to power reverse osmosis, a common, low-energy technique used for municipal water treatment. Hydrogen production requires pristine water, and this process satisfies that need by removing salts and other elements from the equation.
Learn more about green hydrogen in the Q&A with Bahadur below, as well as his research, next steps and its broader implications.

Determining the passage of time in our world of ticking clocks and oscillating pendulums is a simple case of counting the seconds between ‘then’ and ‘now’
Down at the quantum scale of buzzing electrons, however, ‘then’ can’t always be anticipated. Worse still, ‘now’ often blurs into a haze of vagueness. A stopwatch simply isn’t going to work for some scenarios.
A potential solution could be found in the very shape of the quantum fog itself, according to a 2022 study by researchers from Uppsala University in Sweden.
Explore recent breakthroughs in quantum teleportation, the science of secure communication, and quantum computing.
Recent breakthroughs in genetics research may have uncovered new genes underlying common psychiatric disorders. Schizophrenia and bipolar disorder affect more than 64 million people around the world. These disorders are strongly influenced by genetics. No one gene, however, determines one’s risk of developing schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. Rather, it is likely that a host of genes contribute to risk. Using artificial intelligence, researchers at Stanford University now have uncovered complex variants throughout the human genome that may contribute to these psychiatric disorders. This new study suggests that mutations that occur after fertilization, such as genetic mosaicism, may be responsible for a number of psychiatric disorders including bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.
Think of a genome as a living book with instructions for every cell in the body. Our genes are the chapters. We have approximately 200,000 genes that provide instructions for making proteins, the building blocks of life. The vast majority of our genes, however, are non-coding, meaning that they do not provide instructions for proteins. Nonetheless, these genes play an important role in genetics and regulating cell function.
Genetic variants, or spelling changes, in either a coding or non-coding region can interfere with how the cell translates specific instructions. A small typo may have little to no effect on how the book is read. However, larger spelling changes can lead to the deletion of a sentence or even a whole chapter. Without the correct instructions to produce specific proteins, these spelling changes can contribute to disorders that impact different aspects of our body.
