Hydrogenation of carbon dioxide to formate was achieved by molecular copper catalysts for the first time. In the cover picture, the gate made of copper is opened by a DBU molecule, inviting carbon dioxide and molecular hydrogen into the gate. It implies that the combination of copper and DBU ...
air- the mixture of gases that make up the Earth's atmosphere, consisting mainly of nitrogen, with oxygen, water vapor, argon, and carbon dioxide. alchemy-Several definitions of alchemy exist. Originally, alchemy was an ancient tradition of sacredchemistryused to discern the spiritual and temporal...
of these catalysts are difficult to study due to their heterogeneous nature. Here we describe a general synthesis of Co-, Fe- and Ni-containing double-atom catalysts from their single-atom precursors via in situ electrochemical transformation. Characterization reveals molecule-like bimetallic active ...
Most plants split water molecules to generate energy, and now we have a clearer picture of exactly how they do it.
Ozonation did not significantly mineralize the organic matter however the performance of the system can be increased by consecutive use of ozonation and biodegradation as ozonation generates a molecule with lower molecular weight favoring metabolism of the organic species present by microorganism and their...
Green hydrogen produced by water splitting using renewable electricity is essential to achieve net-zero carbon emissions. Present water electrolysis technologies are uncompetitive with low-cost grey hydrogen produced from fossil fuels, limiting their sca
Among the Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) methods, gas-based EOR methods are very popular all over the world. The gas injection has a high ability to increase microscopic sweep efficiency and can increase production efficiency well. However, it should be not
It would seem that this experiment revealed the whole picture of aqueous chlorination of hydrocarbons. However, the subsequent studies have shown that the situation is much more complicated. Theoretically, radical reactions with saturated compounds are really unlikely under conditions of aqueous chlorination...
A MOF, or metal-organic framework, is a type of solid material that is highly porous and behaves like a sponge, capable of soaking up vast quantities of a specific gas molecule, such as carbon dioxide. They’ve been around about 20 years, and there’s been an explosion in research over...
This review contains a survey of recent literature on the mechanisms and application of microalgae in carbon dioxide capture and sequestration. It highlights areas of active research in the field, such as progress made in the bio-capture of carbon dioxide, the conversion of this into energy using...
