Numerous characteristics of carbon-based materials make them desirable as catalysts for expediting chemical reactions.
High energy density to power devices and stability to be recharged thousands of times safely and reliably are two qualities that make a good battery.
Biomass, which is primarily made of vegetable oil and lignocellulose, has been considered one of the most potential sustainable sources of raw carbon material for the processing of value-added chemicals and transport fuels.
Researchers explain how they obtained the highest level of energy storage—capacitance—in a supercapacitor in a new, ground-breaking chemistry study.
Researchers are developing exascale software tools to enable the design of new chemicals and chemical processes for clean energy production.
Climate-neutral hydrogen will be a crucial fuel and raw resource in the future. Water is electrolyzed to produce hydrogen, either indirectly (using a solar panel or wind turbine to provide voltage to the electrolysis cell) or directly (using a photoelectrochemical cell, or PEC cell), where the photoelectrode itself provides the electrical energy for electrolysis.
Case Western Reserve University chemical engineer Rohan Akolkar is leading a research team working to develop a new zero-carbon, electrochemical process to produce iron metal from ore.
Researchers at the RIKEN Center for Emergent Matter Science (CEMS) in Japan have discovered a compound that uses a chemical reaction to store ammonia, potentially offering a safer and easier way to store this important chemical.
Solid electrolytes with high lithium-ion conductivity can be designed for millimeter-thick battery electrodes by increasing the complexity of their composite superionic crystals, report researchers from Tokyo Tech.
Case Western Reserve University electrochemical engineer Rohan Akolkar-whose pioneering research has applications in nano-material fabrication, energy storage, electrometallurgy and sensors-has been selected as the 2023 winner of an international award from The Electrochemical Society (ECS).
