New findings shed light on the chemical evolution of the Earth

The sun as a source of energy, and catalysts to accelerate chemical reactions, were of critical importance in the emergence of the first biochemical molecules on Earth. A research team has now shown that a solid deposited ...

How electrostatics can advance green catalysis events

Developing new and more-efficient catalytic ways to control chemical reactivity and selectivity has been a constant quest for chemists in the fields of chemical manufacturing and fundamental research. Growing evidence points ...

A tailored and rapid approach for ozonation catalyst design

In a new study published in the journal Environmental Science and Ecotechnology, researchers from the Chinese Research Academy of Environment Sciences have employed machine learning, specifically the artificial neural network ...

X-rays visualize how one of nature's strongest bonds breaks

The use of short flashes of X-ray light brings scientists one big step closer toward developing better catalysts to transform the greenhouse gas methane into a less harmful chemical. The result, published in the journal Science, ...
