Researchers at The University of Manchester and Hebei University of Technology have identified how a new class of catalyst can break down lignin into useful chemical building blocks, offering a more ...

University of Pittsburgh researchers have made an important step toward providing hospitals and water treatment facilities with a safer, greener alternative to chlorine-based disinfection. This ...

With an improved catalyst, ORNL chemists converted two greenhouse gases, methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2), to syngas, a valuable mix of hydrogen (H2) and carbon monoxide (CO). A chemical ...

A new study reveals that dual-atom catalysts behave in a fundamentally different way than scientists previously thought, challenging a long-standing model used to predict catalytic performance.

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Steven Chavez’s path to chemical engineering started with a teacher, Kelly Silva. “You have a knack for this,” Silva told him one ...

High-resolution electron microscopy images of the catalyst captured at the CFN. Frame A shows the catalyst with a scale bar representing 20 nanometers (nm) after three consecutive reaction cycles; B ...
