Opening a New Frontier: PdMo Intermetallic Catalyst for Promoting CO2 Utilization


h-PdMo, a recently discovered catalyst, can convert carbon dioxide (CO2) into useful methanol at room temperature and low-pressure conditions, as demonstrated by researchers at Tokyo Tech. This novel compound, which is thermally and chemically stable in air, represents a new milestone in CO2 conversion via hydrogenation and could be key to slow down climate change. Being

Reform des europäischen Emissionshandels: Parlament stimmt mit Ja


Der europäische CO2-Markt zwingt Kraftwerke und Fabriken dazu, CO2-Zertifikate zu kaufen, wenn sie die Umwelt verschmutzen. Dadurch konnten die Emissionen dieser Sektoren seit 2005 um 43 Prozent gesenkt werden. Jedoch steht der CO2-Markt nun vor einer grundlegenden Überarbeitung, um die ehrgeizigen europäischen Klimaziele zu erreichen. Das Parlament stimmte mit großer Mehrheit für eine Vereinbarung, auf

Parliament backs EU carbon market overhaul, world’s first CO₂ tariff


Parliament voted to approve, with a large majority, a deal agreed last year by negotiators from EU countries and Parliament to reform the carbon market and cut EU emissions by 62% below 2005 levels by 2030. Under the upgrade, factories will lose the free CO2 permits they currently receive by 2034, and shipping emissions will

Electrolyzers Market worth $23,555.9 Million by 2028


An electrolyzer system utilizes electricity to break water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. Through this process, the electrolyzer system produces hydrogen, and the leftover oxygen is released into the atmosphere or can be captured or stored to supply other industrial processes or even medical gases, in some cases. There are four main ways that electrolyzers

The suite of substances that can tackle carbon dioxide


One of the reasons carbon dioxide is such a problem is that it’s very difficult to break down: the bonds in CO2molecules are very stable, and it’s hard to find something that can slice them open. But if we can develop compounds that do cut up these inert bonds, CO2 and other molecules that hang around
