Technologies that convert carbon dioxide (CO₂) emitted from factories and power plants into useful chemical feedstocks are considered key to achieving carbon neutrality. However, rapid degradation of ...

Scientists have demonstrated the selective conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) into methanol using a cascade reaction strategy. The two-part process is powered by sunlight, occurs at room temperature ...

As the severity of climate change and carbon emissions becomes a global concern, technologies to convert carbon dioxide (CO₂) into resources such as chemical fuels and compounds are urgently needed.

Methanol-to-olefins (MTO) process, an innovative and efficient route for olefin production via non-petrochemical resources, has achieved successful development and application in industry and ...

As the severity of climate change and carbon emissions becomes a global concern, technologies to convert carbon dioxide (CO 2) into resources such as chemical fuels and compounds are urgently needed.
