At Summit Brewing Co.’s canning facility in St. Paul, a conveyor belt springs to life at the push of a button. Cans of beer would usually run along the belt, but not today; this is just for ...

Turning carbon dioxide from a climate liability into a practical fuel has long been a chemist’s moonshot. Now a new generation of catalysts is pushing that vision closer to reality, flipping CO2 into ...

Researchers created a catalyst that purifies sewage and produces hydrogen fuel simultaneously. This innovation could make sewage treatment more economical by generating a valuable product. The ...

Hydrogen fuel cells could power cars, devices, and homes with nothing but water as a byproduct—but platinum’s cost holds them back. Chinese researchers have now unveiled a breakthrough iron-based ...

Researchers have found that manganese, an abundant and inexpensive metal, can be used to efficiently convert carbon dioxide into formate, a potential hydrogen source for fuel cells. The key was a ...

Scientists at the Central South University in China have developed a novel catalyst system that could revolutionize clean hydrogen production by making it possible to generate hydrogen from methane at ...

What if chemical manufacturers could cut their energy costs while eliminating toxic heavy metals from their processes? Researchers at Nagoya University have developed a catalyst system that does ...

Cold starts are the dirtiest moment—Bosch thinks it’s solved them with fire.

A technology has been developed that uses robots rather than humans to evaluate the performance of newly developed catalysts. By operating 45 times faster than manual work while also improving ...
