<description><![CDATA[An oil drill in Mississippi is breaking new ground in waste heat, using unwanted water to run a generator that runs on waste heat.ElectraTherm, which makes the waste heat generator, said the Denbury oil well near Laurel, Miss., has successfully installed its GreenMachine product and shown that it can provide 20 percent of the electric power needed for the drilling. The demonstration was funded by a $460,000 federal government grant, half of which was paid for by one of ElectraTherm's distributors.The waste heat generator can be delivered on the skid of a tractor trailer. The green machine is the actual generator while the white machine with the fans on left are used for cooling the refrigerant in the loop.(Credit:ElectraTherm)Waste heat is considered a relatively untapped source of energy that could make many industrial processes, such as power generation or manufacturing, more efficient.Electratherm's generator is designed to operate using a relatively low-temperature heat source and produce between 30 kilowatts and 65 kilowatts. At the Mississippi well, drillers seeking new sources of oil generate 4,000 barrels of unwanted water per day. At 204 degrees Farenheit, it can operate ElectraTherms' GreenMachine. The generator operates using a similar principle to ground-source heat pumps. The heat from the water, or another heat source, causes a refrigerant fluid in tubes to evaporate. The pressure from that gas turns a mechanism connected to a generator to make electricity. Using fans, the gas is then cooled down back into liquid form to start the process again.Oil wells have used waste heat to generate electricity before, but the advantage the Green Machine has in the field is that it's portable, ElectraTherm representative Celeste Dodge said today. After one well has been drilled, it can be moved to another location. The generator in Mississippi was installed in 50 hours. Waste heat is a free source of energy, but waste heat generators compete with grid electricity prices. In places where electricity costs 10 cents or higher per kilowatt-hour, the return on investment for a GreenMachine is four to six years, according to the company. The national average is 11 cents per kilowatt-hour. In places with cheaper electricity, such as the U.S. Southeast, there isn't a big incentive to invest in waste heat generators without grants or policies to promote renewable energy, she said.<br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[A screenshot of Ryan Woodward&amp;39's Martha Graham dynamic doodle after it&amp;39's finished drawing the Google logo.(Credit:screenshot by Stephen Shankland/CNET)Today's Google doodle honors choreographer Martha Graham's birthday--and with animated dancers revealing it, the doodle also showcases the company's push to build a more dynamic Web.The only problem: some people find it's slowing their machines. That's hardly the outcome that Google--obsessed over every millisecond of delay in delivering search results--could have wanted.The dynamic doodle is a rarity for Google, but you can expect more as the company tries to draw attention to what can be done on the Web, not just to the subjects of its doodles. Indeed, Google had a whole session at its Google I/O conference this week to Google's Pac-Man doodle a year ago, which was an actual playable game.Related link &amp;149' Complete coverage: Google I/OGoogle tests such things, but still, not everybody is happy.&quot;The doodle is great,&quot; said commenter From the Pews in a Google forum posting spotted by Search Engine Roundtable. &quot;Here's the problem. It's so great that it is actually interfering with the search engine. It is causing it to respond slowly to key strokes and of course to actual searches. You may want to adjust your doodle just a tad.&quot;Cartoonist Ryan Woodward created the animated doodle, in which a dancer leaping across the page leaves Google's logo letters behind. Clicking the logo searches Google for the Martha Graham Dance Company. Graham was born today in 1894' the dance company was pleased about the doodle and congratulated itself on Facebook that &quot;Martha Graham&quot; is a hot trend on Twitter--a result that shows the power of Google's promotional abilities.&quot;Hope you guys like the Google Doodle I did in commemoration of legendary Martha Graham,&quot; Woodward said on his Web site. &quot;This was released on May 11, 2011 on Google.com. I it was really great to work with dancers and choreographers from the Martha Graham Dance Company in New York on this. Martha was an incredible artist!&quot;Woodward, too, got some new fame out of the animation--but also some attendant troubles.&quot;The Google.com Doodle traffic just crashed both my websites and my host tells me I already have 'unlimited' bandwidth... Sorry guys,&quot; Woodward tweeted early this morning.<br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>
