Shell said a Dutch court ruled in favor of an appeal by the company against a 2021 landmark-ruling that said the oil-and-gas ...

The source of carbon turned out to be important. For some processes, carbon is used that was obtained from coconut shells, fibers or special woods. Such "recipes" can even be found in patent documents ...

Precious metals play an important role in the chemical industry as catalysts: With the help of silver, platinum, palladium or ...

Where does the periodic table of chemical elements end and which processes lead to the existence of heavy elements? Researchers report on experiments to come closer to an answer. They gained insight ...

The evolution of hydrogen types highlights its potential as a clean energy solution, essential for achieving net-zero ...

The zinc-air battery-based hydrogen system uses a high-activity, long-lasting catalyst for three key reactions at low temperatures and with simple implementation. Researchers clai ...

Accordingly, Professor Kang's research team proposed a method for synthesizing a non-precious metal catalyst material (G-SHELL) that is effective for all three different catalytic reactions (oxygen ...

Some elements in the periodic table, such as carbon, silicon, and germanium, are intrinsic semiconductors due to the number of electrons in their outermost electron shells. By comparison ...
