Researchers at Kyoto University in Japan have proposed a novel two - stage process to convert low - rank coals or biomass
wastes under mild conditions to high - quality liquid fuel.
The ORNL team's lab - scale tests also indicate the catalyst can operate at relatively low temperatures and pressures and can be
regenerated under mild conditions, helping the technology withstand long periods of operation without significant degradation.
TUAT researchers have achieved the new synthetic route of conjugated tetraenes from inexpensive and easily available 1,3 - butadiene and substituted acetylenes by a one - pot
approach under mild conditions.
In a recent research, a group of scientists from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology created a B12 - dependent light - sensing hydrogel by covalently stitching together the photoreceptor C - terminal adenosylcobalamin binding domain (CarHC)
proteins under mild conditions.
But Cross and Annett's method
works under milder conditions and could be used to make many ribbons quickly, the researchers think, because each shape does not have to be laboriously carved.
The technique can reverse click chemistry reactions, a popular transformation in which simple starting materials are snapped
together under mild conditions.
The results of this paper may lead others to design clathrates not based on carbon ring structures that may provide reversible hydrogen
storage under mild conditions.
Researchers at Argonne National Laboratory, Tufts University and Oak Ridge National Laboratory have shown that mononuclear rhodium species, anchored on a zeolite or titanium dioxide support suspended in aqueous solution, can catalyze the direct conversion of methane to methanol and acetic acid using oxygen and carbon
monoxide under mild conditions....
Methane monooxygenases (MMOs), found in methanotrophic bacteria, are selective catalysts for methane activation and conversion to
methanol under mild conditions; however, these... Read more →
In a new study, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory, Tufts University and Oak Ridge National Laboratory teamed up to explore the potential of rhodium - based catalysts for this
conversion under milder conditions.
In work funded by the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center at UW — Madison, Stahl and his colleagues show that high yields of the aromatics may be obtained by exposure of lignin to oxygen followed by treatment with a weak
acid under mild conditions.
Researchers at Kyoto University in Japan have proposed a novel two - stage process to convert low - rank coals or biomass
wastes under mild conditions to high - quality liquid fuel.
Applied to the solvent - free ethanolysis of rapeseed oil, the system delivered a yield of 96 %
under mild conditions.
