Nano-sponges of solid acid transform carbon dioxide to fuel and plastic waste to chemicals
Solve two problems at one stroke
03-Aug-2020
Solid acids are amongst the most essential heterogeneous catalysts, which have the potential to replace environmentally harmful liquid acids, in some of the most important processes, such as hydrocarbon cracking, alkylation, as well as plastic waste degradation and carbon dioxide to fuel ...
Closing the carbon cycle to stop climate change
Defects in nanosilica can save planet earth from global warming
20-Mar-2020
An excessive amount of carbon dioxide is the main cause of climate change. One of the best approaches is to capture and convert carbon dioxide (CO2) into fuel such as methane. On the other hand, a sustainable way to solve the energy problem is to generate alternative energy source, however, ...

The Indian market is becoming more and more important due to its rapid growth, especially in the chemical sector. The chemical platform chembid sees enormous potential in the further digitalization of the Indian chemicals business. In the future, the company plans to significantly expand its ...
ADNOC, Adani, BASF and Borealis sign Memorandum of Understanding to further evaluate collaboration for a chemical complex in India
Total investment estimated to be up to $4 billion
18-Oct-2019
Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), Adani Group, BASF SE and Borealis AG have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to engage in a joint feasibility study to further evaluate a collaboration for the establishment of a chemical complex in Mundra, Gujarat, India.This is the next step of ...
The cycling of poisonous chemicals from the past
Monsoon remobilizes phased-out chemicals stored in South Asian soils
15-Aug-2018
Persistent organic pollutants are toxic chemicals that cannot decompose in nature, or only do so very slowly, and are harmful to the environment. Through accumulation along food chains they also have significant negative effects on human health. Nowadays, many of them are banned. Traces of those ...
Wacker opens a new plant for functional silicone fluids in India
21-Mar-2018
Wacker Metroark Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. is expanding its existing silicone production at its Amtala site near Kolkata with a new hydrosilylation plant for manufacturing functional silicone fluids. The plant with an annual capacity of over 6,000 metric tons was officially opened at a ceremony in ...
Silver nanoparticles take spectroscopy to new dimension
A new way of organizing nanostructures has boosted Raman signals by a hundred thousand times to better identify and characterize different molecules
04-Jan-2018
As medicine and pharmacology investigate nanoscale processes, it has become increasingly important to identify and characterize different molecules. Raman spectroscopy, a technique that leverages the scattering of laser light to identify molecules, has a limited capacity to detect molecules in ...
Hybrid electrolyte enhances supercapacitance in vertical graphene nanosheets
08-Dec-2017
Supercapacitors can store more energy than and are preferable to batteries because they are able to charge faster, mainly due to the vertical graphene nanosheets (VGNs) that are larger and positioned closer together. VGNs are 3-D networks of carbon nanomaterial that grow in rows of vertical ...
Creation of coherent states in molecules by incoherent electrons
24-Oct-2017
In a breakthrough experiment using a novel negative ion momentum imaging technique, researchers from Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai India and Open University, Milton Kyenes, UK have shown -- for the first time -- that incoherent electrons displaying their quantum mechanical ...
