University of Pittsburgh researchers have made an important step toward providing hospitals and water treatment facilities ...

Hydrogen fuel could be an important part of the clean energy revolution. But it faces some challenges. Most hydrogen today is ...

Catalysts are substances that speed up chemical reactions or allow them to occur at lower temperatures or pressures. 1 When catalysts are used to control and enhance reactions, the process is called ...

A catalyst is a key ingredient for many chemical reactions. It facilitates a molecule to change into another molecule, without being changed itself, meaning it can be used multiple times. However, ...

An international research team led by Professor Philip C.Y. Chow at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) has unveiled a new ...

A recent advance in the science of hydrogen fuel production could enable higher output and more sustainable production of ...

Scientists have mapped the atomic interactions that make nanoscale catalysts so effective at converting propane into propylene. The discovery highlights a stabilizing oxide pattern that could guide ...

Guided by quantum chemical calculations, scientists design and test a new single atom catalyst that converts propane to propylene with 100% efficiency, with little deactivation by coking. If adopted ...

Researchers have created an iron catalyst that can facilitate important chemical reactions in place of the current catalyst, which is made from precious metals. A catalyst is a key ingredient for many ...
