In a significant step toward a carbon-neutral future, researchers from Tohoku University (Japan), the Tokyo University of ...

Most vehicles need catalytic converters not only so they perform at their best, but also because it's the law. Here's how ...

In a significant step towards a carbon-neutral future, researchers developed an atomically precise copper nanocluster that ...

Japanese researchers revealed that a novel palladium-loaded amorphous InGaZnOx (a-IGZO) catalyst converted carbon dioxide to ...

A precious metal used everywhere from car exhaust systems to fuel cells, platinum is an incredibly efficient catalyst—but ...

Catalytic converters help keep the air clean, but is it something you can remove on your diesel truck for better performance?

Overall, catalytic converter thefts have tumbled from the highs seen only a short time ago. In 2022, State Farm Insurance handled approximately 45,000 claims for catalytic converter thefts.

Boston College chemists have used a tandem catalytic system to efficiently convert carbon dioxide into methanol. By encapsulating multiple catalysts involved in the tandem process in nanoporous ...

Carbon monoxide, unburnt hydrocarbons, and nitrous oxides pass over and through the honeycomb pieces of the catalytic converter. In combination with the right amount of heat, the precious metal ...

During their peak, platinum sold for $1,289 per ounce and palladium sold for $3,307 per ounce, making a typical catalytic converter worth at least $128 of platinum and $231 of palladium.
