Researchers develop earth-abundant photocatalyst for conversion of ammonia into hydrogen

Green Car Congress

and Princeton University’s Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment have created a scalable photocatalyst that can convert ammonia into hydrogen fuel. This result demonstrates the potential for highly efficient, electrically driven production of hydrogen from an ammonia carrier with earth-abundant transition metals.

Stanford team devises new bio-inspired strategy for using CO2 to produce multi-carbon compounds such as plastics and fuels

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Stanford University have devised a new strategy for using CO 2 in the synthesis of multi-carbon compounds. CO 2 reacts readily with carbon-centered nucleophiles—a chemical intermediate species that donates an electron pair to an electrophile to form a chemical bond in relation to a reaction.
