Plastic waste remains an unsolved and a fast-growing environmental challenge, calling for breakthroughs in recycling technologies. Now, researchers from Korea have discovered that adding water to ...
Researchers investigate the mechanisms by which water, when added to the reaction mixture of a ruthenium-based catalytic process, enhances the conversion of polyolefins into fuels like diesel and ...
You're listening to Chemistry in its element brought to you by Chemistry World, the magazine of the Royal Society of Chemistry. Stop the proverbial "man in the street" and ask him what ruthenium is ...
Among these, ruthenium – a platinum group metal – has emerged as an important and commonly used catalyst. However, while a powerful and cost-effective material, highly reactive ruthenium catalysts ...
Scientists have created a catalyst for hydrogen generation from ammonia that becomes more active with time, and by counting atoms revealed changes that boost the catalyst's performance.
