The production of hydrocarbons occurs through two intermediates formed on the surface of the silver electrode to produce useful hydrocarbons like ethylene, ethane, propylene, and propane. Converting ...

Jesús Velázquez, assistant professor of chemistry and Louise Berben, professor of chemistry are taking part in a new program to research converting carbon dioxide to fuels and chemicals. The project, ...

A new study reveals why some attempts to convert carbon dioxide into fuel have failed, and offers possible solutions. If researchers could find a way to chemically convert carbon dioxide into fuels or ...

The technology developed by the NETL team uses a solar powered reactor and a special form of gold nanoparticles to turn CO2 into valuable chemicals and fuels. It has the potential to help enable ...

Reducing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is one of the most pressing concerns facing the world today. Cutting back the amount of CO2 that's newly pumped into the air is vital, but it might not be ...

April 7 (UPI) --Technologies designed to convert CO2 into biofuels and useful chemicals have mostly been confined to the laboratory, limited in their scale and efficiency -- until now. Engineers in ...

UPTON, NY--Plants take in energy from sunlight to transform atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) into sugars and then other materials for growth and metabolic functions. Mimicking this photochemical ...

Researchers have developed an encapsulated cobalt-nickel alloy that significantly improves the efficiency and durability of high-temperature CO2 conversion, a promising technology for carbon recycling ...

Melbourne, Australia: Researchers in Australia have developed a carbon-conversion technology that could help turn industrial emissions into ingredients for low-emissions jet fuel. The new system ...

Katie Lamb receives funding from a Royal Society funded Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF) project. Last year, humans emitted approximately 37 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere ...
