Shaoyun Hao, co-first author and postdoctoral research associate, said they had hypothesized that “acid vapor could dissolve ...
A team of researchers at Rice University have discovered a surprisingly simple method for vastly improving the stability of ...
PFAS are, in many ways, remarkable molecules. Even a thin layer can repel water, oil, and dirt. They are also highly ...
What if tomorrow’s buildings were made from today’s pollution? Michigan researchers are making it happen. A team of ...
OLIVIER CHASSIGNOLE / AFP Good news on the environment front. Researchers have identified a sugar-based catalyst that upcycles carbon dioxide. The new catalyst could offer a potential solution for ...
New catalyst is made from an inexpensive, abundant metal and table sugar. Catalyst converts carbon dioxide (CO2) into carbon monoxide, a building block for producing a variety of useful chemicals ...
To reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change, the world urgently needs clean and renewable energy sources.
Estonian company Up Catalyst just raised $4.3 million to make graphite with captured carbon. Graphite is used in lithium-ion batteries but it's currently mined or derived from fossil fuels.
“China basically overrules the market right now,” said Gary Urb, co-founder and CEO of Up Catalyst, a startup specializing in making graphite from carbon dioxide. What’s more, graphite ...
In CVD, carbon-containing gases are decomposed at high temperatures in the presence of metal catalyst particles, from which the nanotubes grow. A key goal has been to produce ultralong CNTs - those ...
A new catalyst made from an inexpensive, abundant metal and common table sugar has the power to destroy carbon dioxide (CO 2) gas. In a new Northwestern University study, the catalyst successfully ...
