A small molecule traps reaction intermediates on an electrocatalytic surface, making ethylene production more efficient and ...

Scientists have found a way to more than double the uptake ability of a chemical structure that can be used for scrubbing carbon dioxide from factory flues. Oregon State University scientists have ...

In the process of converting carbon dioxide into useful chemicals such as ethylene—a key precursor for plastics—a major ...

Carbon dioxide (chemical formula CO2) is an acidic colorless gas with a density about 53% higher than that of dry air. Carbon dioxide molecules consist of a carbon atom covalently double bonded to two ...

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 ...

Scientists have created a new kind of carbon material that could make carbon capture much cheaper and more efficient. By carefully controlling how nitrogen atoms are arranged, they found certain ...

Chemically, carbon dioxide is incredibly simple – it is just one carbon atom linked with two oxygen atoms. Together they create a colorless gas that makes up just a tiny fraction of the Earth's ...
