LLC to
produce olefins and polyolefin.
Research at the University of Pittsburgh into a more energy - efficient catalytic process to
produce olefins, the building blocks for polymer production, was recently featured on the inside front cover of the Royal Society of Chemistry journal, Catalysis Science & Technology (May 21, 2017, Issue 10).
A team of researchers from the Center for Catalytic Hydrocarbon Functionalizations, within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS), in collaboration with Prof. Daniel J. Mindiola from the University of Pennsylvania, accomplished a reaction that was not possible before;
they produced olefins with cheap readily available ingredients and at low temperature (75 °C).

The zeolite catalyst then converts these hydrogenated products into light
olefins and aromatic hydrocarbons in a yield as much as three times higher than that
produced with the pure pyrolysis oil.
In addition to stopping building new coal - to - gas projects, the policymaker also said in the media report that China will cool down the development of other forms of coal - to - chemicals projects, with a plan to
produce 6.6 million tons of coal to oil and 15 million tons of coal to
olefins by 2020.
These molecules are called
olefins and are mainly
produced from fossil fuels through an energy - intensive and polluting process known as steam cracking.
We addressed this 2-fold problem by developing the following methods: (1) production of the largest to - date biologically derived single - stranded scaffold using a λ / M13 hybrid virus to
produce a 51 466 - nucleotide DNA in a circular, single - stranded form and (2) inexpensive DNA synthesis via an inkjet - printing process on a chip embossed with functionalized micropillars made from cyclic
olefin copolymer.
