The mesh numbers in parentheses are too small to exist as actual screen sizes; they are estimates included for reference.
Mesh Sizes and Microns
What does mesh size mean?
Figuring out mesh sizes is simple. All you do is count the number of openings in one inch of screen (in the United States, anyway.) The
number of openings is the mesh size. So a 4-mesh screen means there are four little squares across on e linear inch of screen. A 100-mesh
screen has 100 openings, and so on. As the number describing the mesh size increases, the size of the particles decreases. Higher numbers
equal finer material. Mesh size is not a precise measurement of particle size.
What do the minus (-) and plus (+) signs mean when describing mesh sizes?
Here's a simple example of how they work. -200 mesh would mean that all particles smaller than -200 mesh would pass through. +200 mesh
means that all the particles 200-mesh or larger are retained.
How fine do screens get?
That depends on the wire thickness. If you think about it, the finer the weave, the closer the wires get together, eventually leaving no space
between them at all. For this reason, beyond 325-mesh particle size is usually described in "microns".
What is a micron?
A micron is another measurement of particle size. A micron is one-millionth of a meter or one twenty-five thousandth of an inch.

Hydro-Qubec and Technifin (a subsidiary of South
Africa's Council for Scientific and Industrial

(IP) collaboration agreement relating to the licensing
of their respective lithium titanate spinel oxide
technologies. Technology transfer and know-how will

IBM is onto a potential breakthrough lithium-air
battery that can theoretically store 1,000x more
energy than a lithium-ion (li-ion) battery. The battery
literally breathes in air to produce more energy as
an EV is driven which extends the range of a single
charge.
Toyota and BMW announced a partnership to share
eco-friendly technologies, including in the joint
development of lithium-ion (li-ion) batteries for next-
generation electric vehicles (EVs). The
organizations will share development costs for
batteries for EVs as part of plans to roll out battery-
powered vehicles.
Researchers at Northwestern University have
developed an electrode that could allow
conventional li-ion batteries to hold a charge 10
times greater than current technology. The
researchers sandwiched clusters of silicon between
the graphene sheets that could eliminate or
marginalize the fragmentation.
Japan's three carbon fiber suppliers (Toray
Industries, Toho Tenax and Mitsubishi Rayon) are

Graphene neural implants being developed
to treat Alzheimers, Parkinsons and more
August 04, 2011
Neural implants have the potential to treat
disorders and diseases that typically require long-
term treatment, such as blindness, deafness,
epilepsy, spinal cord injury, and Alzheimer's and
Parkinson's. However, implantable devices have
been problematic in clinical applications because
of bodily reactions that limit device functioning
time. Graphene neural implants could be made to
last longer (perhaps 5 years) and could be smaller
than current implants.

Manitoba Hydro plugs into electric vehicles
Larry Kusch Posted | Winnipeg Free Press
With electric cars soon to hit the local market,
Manitoba Hydro is planning for its role as the
'filling station' of the future.
The Manitoba Crown corporation's best guess is
that within 20 years, the electrical load from zero-
emission battery-powered electric vehicles will be
200 megawatts. That's the equivalent of the power
that will be generated from Hydro's new
Wuskwatim dam, set to come on stream next
year. It assumes that tens of thousands of
customers will be driving electric vehicles (EVs)
by then.
