Plasma approach keeps catalysts working for longer in hydrogen production
5+ hour, 36+ min ago (446+ words) Scientists from The University of Manchester have shown how a plasma-based approach, using non thermal plasma " an electrically energised gas often described as the fourth state of matter " can prevent catalyst deactivation in a key hydrogen production reaction, maintaining stable…...
Austrian scientists just caught a ceramic that engineers have used since the 1990s doing chemistry nobody knew existed " turning CO2 and water vapor into ready-to-burn methane in a single step, on one electrode, instead of the two full plants the job takes today
8+ hour, 55+ min ago (881+ words) Turning captured CO" back into fuel is one of those ideas that looks great on a slide and gets ugly the second you cost it out. The standard approach is a two-step slog. First you build an electrolyzer to split…...

In Austria, scientists found a way to turn captured CO2 and water into climate-neutral methane
11+ hour, 14+ min ago (352+ words) Researchers in Austria report that methane can be produced through an unanticipated process that combines captured carbon dioxide and water, a result that could offer a cleaner source of a fuel still used across industry. The work suggests one possible…...
The Lavinda Lab " Chemistry-Aware AI Validation
22+ hour, 6+ min ago (447+ words) AI can now generate protein-complex hypotheses in seconds. The hard part is no longer making the prediction. It is knowing which predictions are chemically real. My lab builds chemistry-aware methods to tell them apart, in the cases where metals, glycans,…...
