A new catalyst, referring to a substance capable of activating oxidation processes in low-reactive components of gas and oil, has been developed by a team of scientists from the Research Institute of Chemistry (RIC) of RUDN University in collaboration with colleagues from major scientific centers.
The field of electrochemistry has gone through a resurgence in the recent past, and at present, a number of research teams are analyzing the environment-friendly synthesis or transformation of molecules.
In a number of countries carbon dioxide (CO2) capture remains a priority as the world looks to tackle climate change. Particularly, the latest report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reveals that geological storage of CO2 is needed for all scenarios that can meet 430 - 550 ppm CO2 atmospheric concentrations.
A Bristol-led, global project studying a new technique of manipulating the growth of organic crystals, with potential advantages for pharmaceutical development, has progressed further with the launch of a new £1 million laboratory.
A finding by an intercontinental group of researchers from Princeton University, the Georgia Institute of Technology and Humboldt University in Berlin directs the way to more extensive application of an advanced technology commonly known as organic electronics.
Germanium, considered to be a more efficient elemental semiconductor than silicon, was the material of choice in the early history of electronic devices. Eventually, the high cost of developing germanium crystals concealed its efficiency, and silicon thus captured the field.
In several regions of the developing world, people have plentiful heat from the sun during the day, but majority of the cooking happens later in the evening when the sun sets, using fuel - such as wood, dung, or brush - that is gathered with substantial time and effort.
There are numerous technologies with potential under development that can decrease energy consumption or capture carbon in fields including biotech, nanotechnology, materials science, computer science, and more. Not all will prove viable, but with some funding and nurturing, many could help solve Earth’s grand challenge.
Excess hydrogen is capable of causing problems in a wide range of industries. It can corrode electronics, semiconductors, and nuclear fuel sitting in storage. It also comprises of an explosion hazard. To remove this extra hydrogen, it is possible for chemists to use an organic compound known as a hydrogen getter that chemically binds to a number of hydrogen atoms.
In the future, 3D laser melting process can be adopted for manufacturing innovative designer alloys used in aerospace applications—a process known as additive manufacturing, or AM.
