Scientists create coatings from nature

Organic chemists from the University of Groningen and the Dutch multinational company AkzoNobel, a major global producer of paints and coatings, developed a process that allows them to turn biomass into a high-quality coating using light, oxygen and UV...

New electrode design more efficiently converts CO<sub>2</sub> into fuel

For years, researchers have worked to repurpose excess atmospheric carbon dioxide into new chemicals, fuels and other products traditionally made from hydrocarbons harvested from fossil fuels. The recent push to mitigate the climactic effects of greenh...

Carbon Dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) as Chemical Feedstock for Polymers – already nearly 1 million tonnes production capacity installed!

The nova report addresses the polymer industry, brands, technology scouts, investors, and policy makers. The report provides 100 pages of information around CO2-utilisation for chemical building blocks and polymers.Visuals and PDF files in German and E...

Mikroorganismus baut Phenol unter extremen Bedingungen ab

Forschende rund um Dr. Meina Neumann-Schaal vom Leibniz-Institut DSMZ-Deutsche Sammlung von Mikroorganismen und Zellkulturen GmbH in Braunschweig haben den Abbau von Phenol durch Saccharolobus solfataricus charakterisiert. Mittels Methoden aus den Bere...

Microorganism breaks down phenol under extreme conditions

Scientists led by Dr Meina Neumann-Schaal of the Leibniz Institute DSMZ-German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures GmbH in Braunschweig, Lower Saxony, have characterised the breakdown of phenol by Saccharolobus solfataricus. Using methods fr...

Solar chemicals and fuels in the dark

Imagine being able to run solar powered conversion of CO2 to solar chemicals and fuels without interference from clouds or after the sun sets. Sounds impossible, like the dream of perpetual motion. However, it turns out that this is in fact possible be...

Net-Zero 1 Project

Gevo, Inc. (“Gevo”), announces the concept of Net-Zero Projects for the production of energy dense liquid hydrocarbons using renewable energy and Gevo’s proprietary technology. The concept of a Net-Zero Project is to convert renewable energy (photosynt...

Biocatalysis in Green and Blue: Cyanobacteria

Cyanobacteria use photosynthesis to harvest the Sun’s energy to bind atmospheric CO 2 and accumulate biomass. This ability renders cyanobacteria interesting hosts for sustainable industrial processes.The photoautotrophic metabolism allows a constant su...
