I was fascinated by the idea of jet packs when I was a kid. They were sci-fi magic, and the idea that you could strap into an oversized backpack wrapped in tinfoil and fly around was very enticing.

CatDRX is a generative AI framework developed at Institute of Science Tokyo, which enables the design of new chemical catalysts based on the specific chemical reactions in which they are used. The ...

Solid catalysts underpin many of the large-scale chemical transformations used to manufacture modern materials, converting hydrocarbons — including renewable or recycled forms of carbon — into the ...

Discovering new catalysts is one of the central challenges in developing clean-energy technologies such as green hydrogen production. Yet catalyst discovery has traditionally remained confined within ...

These microsize lightning bolts are more than fancy flashes in a chemical reactor tube. Dayne Swearer and his team at ...

A team in Milan has developed a first-of-its-kind single-atom catalyst that acts like a molecular switch, enabling cleaner, more adaptable chemical reactions. Stable, recyclable, and eco-friendly, it ...

Researchers present a new generative AI model that can simultaneously design catalyst structures and predict their performance under specific reaction conditions. CatDRX is a generative AI framework ...

A chemical reaction can convert two polluting greenhouse gases into valuable building blocks for cleaner fuels and feedstocks, but the high temperature required for the reaction also deactivates the ...

A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction. The catalyst is not used up or chemically changed during the reaction. Enzymes are catalysts that work inside the cells of living ...
