New low-cost, sustainable material for reducing air and water pollution

A new class of low-cost and sustainable hybrid materials could possibly displace activated carbon as the preferred choice for reducing wastewater and air pollution. The material is synthesized inexpensively from solid wastes and a naturally abundant polymer -- and can cut down pollutants in air and more
From greenhouse gas to 3-D surface-microporous graphene

Tiny dents in the surface of graphene greatly enhances its potential as a supercapacitor. Even better, it can be made from carbon dioxide. A material scientist at Michigan Technological University invented a novel approach to take carbon dioxide and turn it into 3-D graphene with micropores across i more
Targeting PFOA threat to drinking water

A highly toxic water pollutant, known as perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), last year caused a number of U.S. communities to close their drinking water supplies. Because of its historical use in Teflon production and other industrial processes as well as its environmental persistence, PFOA contamination more

Deep oxidative desulfurization of dibenzothiophene with {Mo132} nanoball supported on activated carbon as efficient catalyst at room temperature

In this paper, the Keplerate nanoball iso-polyoxomolybdate {Mo132} supported on activated carbon (AC) has been synthesized and evaluated as new, green and cost-effective catalyst in oxidative desulfurization of the model fuel containing dibenzothiophene (DBT). The {Mo132}/AC catalysts, which were pr more
From Glucose-Based Carbohydrates to Phenol-rich Bio-oil Integrated with Syngas Production via Catalytic Pyrolysis over Activated Carbon Catalyst

The catalytic pyrolysis of carbohydrates over phosphoric acid-activated carbon catalyst (ACC) was investigated to obtain phenol-rich bio-oil and syngas production in a facile fixed-bed reactor for the first time. A central composite experimental design (CCD) was used to optimize the reaction conditi more
