DIY eco-friendly fertilizer
Miniature plasma reactors mimic how lightening makes renewable nitrogen fertilizer using just sunlight, water, and air.
“Greening” brown ammonia no longer looks like a pipe dream
A recent advance in the Haber-Bosch production of ammonia increases conversion beyond the maximum allowed in the current industrial process.
Never say never – Seeing the birth of a crystal
The genesis of a crystal was something we have imagined for centuries, and being able to watch it was like living in a dream.
Solar chemicals and fuels in the dark
Conquering cloud and nighttime solar intermittency comes from the phenomenon of persistent photoconductivity observed in materials that contain sub-bandgap trap states.
Inversely designing new materials for natural gas separation
A new machine learning strategy searches for desirable materials properties rather than building blocks, which researchers hope will lead to better materials to help spark a green economy.
CO2 photocatalysis sees the light of day
A team of chemical engineers has created a pilot-scale photoreactor for making chemicals using just carbon dioxide and sunlight.
Playing ball with the Haber–Bosch process
Can the Haber–Bosch process be green?
Gaming online teaching
AI gaming technology will appear in the classroom in the near future, perhaps making it more accessible and lowering the cost of education for so many that need it.
Green marine — New wind-powered vessel could reduce emissions by 90%
Oceanbird, a newly designed transatlantic car carrier, is powered by wind and could significantly reduce the carbon footprint of marine transportation.
