  • High Pressure System Enables Profitable Carbon Capture

    In a recently published article, researchers from King Abdullah University of Science and Technology have revealed a novel system which converts carbon dioxide into industrial grade ethylene, a commodity essential to plastics, textiles, and construction. The work demonstrates a significant step forward in green chemistry by transforming greenhouse gas emissions into valuable products. read more

  • Engineered Bacteria Used to Create Biosensor Which Detects Microplastics

    Researchers have developed a novel “living sensor” which, after attaching to microplastics in a sample, produce a green fluorescence. Tested in real-world water samples, the unique biosensor was able to easily detect microplastic contamination. read more

  • Mixed Plastic Recycling Made Possible Through Inexpensive New Catalyst

    Chemists from Northwestern University have developed a new process which can drastically reduce, or even completely bypass, the time-consuming process of pre-sorting mixed plastic waste. Thanks to an inexpensive new nickel-based catalyst, the method can even selectively break down single use polyethylenes and polypropylenes which are responsible for almost two-thirds of worldwide plastic consumption. read more

  • Sustainable Carbon Capture Approach Developed Using Shrimp Waste

    University of Sharjah researchers have developed a novel method which uses shrimp waste, which is discarded in large volumes by the seafood industry, into a unique carbon capture product. The method presents a novel waste-to-carbon technology which provides a solution to both waste management and environmental carbon capture. read more

  • Undocumented Class of PFAS Discovered in Marine Mammals

    A previously undocumented class of PFAS has been identified in the blubber of killer whales by a team of Swedish scientists. While most of the well-studied PFAS compounds accumulate in protein-rich tissues, this new highly fluorinated class accumulates in fat-rich tissue. read more

  • Genomic Testing Discovers Five New Coral Species

    A team of researchers, working in collaboration with Queensland Museum's CoralBank, have published recent findings which reshape our understanding of table coral, one of the world’s most ecologically significant corals. The findings of the study raise new questions for coral conservation. read more
