Chemically, carbon dioxide is incredibly simple – it is just one carbon atom linked with two oxygen atoms. Together they create a colorless gas that makes up just a tiny fraction of the Earth's ...

Effective conversion of carbon dioxide (CO 2) – the culprit of global warming – into valuable chemicals provides an attractive pathway to achieving carbon neutrality. Single-atom catalysts (SAC) have ...

Electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO 2) is considered as an effective strategy for mitigating the energy crisis and the greenhouse effect. Among the multiple reduction products, CO is ...

Chemists have developed a novel way to capture and convert carbon dioxide into methane, suggesting that future gas emissions ...

The Au3AgPd6 is the smallest tri-metal alloy nanocluster with well-defined composition/structure so far, according to the researchers. Catalysis is closely related to surface. For metal catalysts, ...

Where would carbon-based life be without carbon? There are 118 known chemical elements, but carbon is the fourth most abundant and perhaps the most important to human life. Everywhere you look, ...

A water-based plasma method creates stable multimetal nanoparticles with a protective shell that improves light driven carbon ...

Carbon dioxide (CO 2) reduction by electrocatalysis is thought to be a useful tactic for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and the energy problem. Because it is an essential feedstock for the ...

A single atom of silver working in synergy with carbon and nitrogen atoms can efficiently convert polluting nitrogenous waste in water from industries such as agriculture and mining into ready-to-use ...

Two new catalytic strategies offer ways to boost the Fischer–Tropsch process by preventing competing side reactions. The ...
