Researchers from National Taiwan University and Chulalongkorn University developed a copper-based catalyst system that ...

Catalytic hydrogenation is a cornerstone process in chemical manufacturing, particularly in the production of hydrogen peroxide via the anthraquinone process. This approach involves the selective ...

By feeding breadcrumbs to E.coli and adding a biocompatible catalyst, the researchers managed to generate a hydrogen output ...

When it comes to catalytic activity, more isn’t always better. Overly active catalysts may be hard to control; finding the sweet spot can be tricky. That job may be easier now thanks to a study ...

Controlling the crystal phase of cobalt nanoparticles leads to exceptional catalytic performance in hydrogenation processes, scientists report. Produced via an innovative hydrosilane-assisted ...

A catalyst that helps convert alkynes into alkenes could offer a more efficient and greener way to achieve the tricky industrial transformation (ACS Catal. 2024, DOI: 10.1021/acscatal.4c00310). The ...

A new technique to trap clusters of platinum atoms in nanoscale islands could lead to more efficient catalysts for the chemical industry. Noble metals such as platinum can make useful catalysts to ...

A variety of hydrogen sources (e.g., water, alcohols, formic acid, etc.) can be used in the reported SACs for TH. They are also capable of performing a variety of hydrogenation reactions. In a ...

Low-temperature CO2 hydrogenation might have sounded almost paradoxical until a recent study made it possible. Researchers have designed new catalysts that can transform the greenhouse gas into ...
