Chemists have developed a new theoretical framework for more accurately predicting the behavior of catalysts. The study reveals how conditions such as temperature and pressure can change a catalyst's ...

Researchers have developed a highly efficient method for recovering uranium from wastewater. They combined a specially engineered covalent organic framework with an indirect electrochemical process to ...

A team of researchers from Rice University's Elimelech lab has developed a new lithium extraction technique that could transform the industry. The technique addresses the increasing demand for lithium ...

Chinese researchers have unveiled a method of extracting uranium from seawater at a fraction of the previous cost and energy use, positioning the country to potentially secure long-term domestic ...

Traditional catalysts often waste material because only surface atoms participate in reactions, while the bulk material goes untouched. Single-atom catalysts (SACs) overcome this inefficiency by ...

A novel thin-film material capable of simultaneously enhancing the efficiency and durability of tandem solar cells has been developed. Led by Professor BongSoo Kim from the Department of Chemistry at ...

A research team in Spain has built what it claims to be the world's most efficient perovskite solar cell using MXenes or any other type of 2D-materials. The device relies on a Mxene interlayer that ...
