Scientists have taken a critical next step in creating a scalable process to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and 'recirculate' it as a renewable fuel. Chemists now describe their latest ...

Yale scientists have developed a more efficient process to convert CO₂ emissions into methanol using a "two-in-one" catalyst, ...

Methanol, important for the manufacture of many everyday goods and for its green energy potential, may soon be produced faster and more efficiently thanks to a collaboration that included two Oregon ...

Yale chemist Hailiang Wang and his colleagues report their most recent success in turning industrial emissions of CO2, a ...

The fuel could be diesel or methanol, while air ... Fuel cells have strong benefits over conventional combustion-based technologies currently used in many power plants and cars.

Alternatively, it can be used in internal combustion engines instead of gasoline (see: drag racing). In China, methanol has just been approved by the ministry for standards for use as a motor ...

Transforming CO 2 into methanol is a two-step chemical reaction. First, CO 2 reacts with a catalyst to become carbon monoxide (CO). The CO then undergoes a catalytic reaction to become methanol.

Scientists have developed a highly efficient dual-site catalyst that improves methanol production from carbon dioxide, ...

In a new study published in the journal Nature Nanotechnology, Yale chemist Hailiang Wang and his colleagues describe their latest breakthrough in creating methanol — a widely used liquid fuel for ...
