Less is more: Why an economical Iridium catalyst works so well

Different chemical environments explored

10-Dec-2024 - Iridium-based catalysts are needed to produce hydrogen using water electrolysis. Now, a team at HZB has shown that the newly developed P2X catalyst, which requires only a quarter of the Iridium, is as efficient and stable over time as the best commercial catalyst. Measurements at BESSY II have ...

A new catalyst can turn methane into something useful

MIT chemical engineers have devised a way to capture methane, a potent greenhouse gas, and convert it into polymers

09-Dec-2024 - Although it is less abundant than carbon dioxide, methane gas contributes disproportionately to global warming because it traps more heat in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide, due to its molecular structure. MIT chemical engineers have now designed a new catalyst that can convert methane into ...
