RealTimeChem Week:
Turning Carbon Dioxide into Useful Plastics
The graphic takes a look at the research ofEconic Technologies, a company which uses catalysts to incorporate captured waste carbon dioxide into polymers, which can themselves be incorporated into useful plastics.
Chemistry Techniques
Titration
Anyone who’s studied chemistry will be overly familiar with titrations. It’s an analytical technique that can be used to find the concentrationof a solution (the amount of a solute dissolved in it). I put this graphic together primarily to remind my A level students of some of the key aspects of ...
The Chemistry of Vodka
Structure, Additives, and Impurities
You could be forgiven for thinking there’s not a great deal that’s interesting about the chemistry of vodka. After all, isn’t it essentially just a mix of two compounds, ethanol and water? Though this is pretty much the case, there’s more to vodka than you might expect. Here we take a look at ...
Periodic table of oxidations states
The oxidation state of elements are largely dependend on their position in the periodic table. Main group elements have usually less numbers of oxidations states. Transition metal often have a wider range of possible oxidaions states.
How Nuclear Reactors Work

In terms of types of reactor, there are two main variations on the above theme for western reactors. The variations are related to the water that’s heated to produce the steam that drives the turbine. In boiling water reactors (BWR), the source of the steam that drives the turbine is water in the ...
