Chinese researchers captured oxygen atoms traveling through the interior of a catalyst, not just on its surface. This breakthrough could revolutionize how we design cleaner, more efficient chemical reactions.
India's first postgraduate program combining chemical engineering with artificial intelligence just opened at IIT Hyderabad. The new degrees prepare students to use AI and data science to solve real-world challenges in energy, manufacturing, and sustainable materials.
A startup born from MIT labs just created a breakthrough that could slash the chemicals industry's massive energy footprint. Their new membrane technology replaces heat-based processes that currently consume up to 15% of the world's total energy.
Researchers discovered that rhodium clusters of about 10 atoms work better than single atoms or large particles for making plastics and detergents. This breakthrough could make chemical manufacturing cheaper and more sustainable.
