Silkwood spent her shifts working with plutonium pellets in a laboratory glove box, a sealed container with glove access ...

Heterogeneous catalysis is a type of catalysis in which the catalyst occupies a different phase from the reactants and products. This may refer to the physical phase — solid, liquid or gas ...

We may earn commission from the links on this page. Every week, a woman walks into my office and asks me about hormone pellets. Usually, she’s sick of feeling two things: one, that no one is listening ...

This year, less than 0.5t of lamb pellets were bought to finish slow-growing lambs. David hopes to sell 50% at weaning and the rest by late September off grass by: Weaning two to three weeks later ...

With an improved catalyst, ORNL chemists converted two greenhouse gases, methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2), to syngas, a valuable mix of hydrogen (H2) and carbon monoxide (CO). Credit: Philip ...

A research team has developed a breakthrough technology that dramatically improves the durability of alloy catalysts, a critical component in fuel cells. By incorporating nitrogen into the alloy ...

Chemical engineers designed a catalyst that can convert methane into useful polymers, which could help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Although it is less abundant than carbon dioxide ...

A new synthesis method has drastically improved the performance of the photocatalyst KGF-9, boosting its CO2-to-formate conversion efficiency nearly tenfold. The method enhances KGF-9’s crystallinity ...

In particular, the evaluation considers the effects of various combinations of micro- and macro-porosity, the potential advantages of radial variation of the porosity in the catalyst pellets, and the ...

Homogeneous catalysis is a type of catalysis in which the catalyst operates in the same phase as the reactants — usually dissolved in a solvent. Mechanistic studies of homogeneous catalysts are ...

Supplying wood pellets has become an important business for North Carolina's forest industry This is the first of two Business of Technology articles examining the way wood pellets are produced ...
