Nitrogen oxides (NOx), a major contributor to air pollution, are emitted from a variety of fuel combustion sources—including industrial smokestacks, vehicles, and ships. The emission temperatures of NOx vary significantly ...
What if chemical manufacturers could cut their energy costs while eliminating toxic heavy metals from their processes? Researchers at Nagoya University have developed a catalyst system that does exactly that by converting ...
Researchers at Tohoku University have come one step closer to finding a sustainable solution that could help us rely less on fossil fuels. Their research shows that when a zinc (Zn) single-atom catalyst is part of an electrochemical ...
Researchers at Texas A&M University have uncovered how to more efficiently convert carbon dioxide (CO2) into useful fuels and chemicals, offering a potential boost to both environmental sustainability and local economies.
A collaborative research team has successfully developed designer enzymes that exhibit both intrinsic and extrinsic functions by transplanting a synthetic trinuclear zinc center into a human cytokine.
Chemical research is often a process of trial and error. Things often don't go as expected in the laboratory: reactions stall or produce too little product. Knowledge of the chemical properties of the substances involved ...
A team from Forschungszentrum Jülich and RWTH Aachen University has developed a novel approach for a catalyst that combines the advantages of the two most commonly used catalysis methods. The new catalyst approach is based ...
Researchers have developed a novel laser-assisted synthesis method to fabricate platinum (Pt) colloidosomes (Cs) with promising applications in near-infrared (NIR) photocatalytic and enzyme-mimicking cancer therapy.
In a leap forward for solar fuel technology, researchers from Japan have developed nanosized, porous oxyhalide photocatalysts (Pb2Ti2O5.4F1.2) that achieved record performance in producing hydrogen from water and converting ...
A low-cost material made from clay—common in British soil—and vitamin B2 could one day help clean up pollution using only sunlight.
