Existing separation technologies struggle to recover oil and water concurrently from surfactant-stabilized emulsions to achieve the goal of near-zero liquid discharge. We present a Janus channel of membranes (JCM) that features a confined architecture ...

Green ammonia is produced from water vapor and nitrogen in air for direct irrigation by microdroplet contact electrocatalysis.

Plus: it doesn’t explode!

The researchers, from the University of Cambridge, say their solar-powered reactor could be used to make fuel to power cars and planes, or the many chemicals and pharmaceuticals products we rely on.

Study marks “step-change” in carbon-neutral hydrogen production

Plasmons can drive chemical reactions by directly exciting intramolecular transitions. However, strong coupling of plasmons to single molecules remains a challenge as ultrasmall mode volumes are required. In the presented work, we propose Cu–Pd plasmonic…

Nature Reviews Clean Technology - Hydrogen has been proposed as a fuel for widespread use since the 1970s, but uptake has repeatedly fallen below projections, primarily due to high costs. This...

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) can help extend the range of electric cars using a range of fuels, and run stationary power generators, with minimal emissions. The trouble is, these cells require awfully high temperatures to operate.

Hanford vitrification plant set to open but some fear Trump officials are pushing for a cheaper alternative
