New research shows how gold helps transform plant-based ethanol into useful industrial chemicals with fewer emissions and ...

The danger of the ever-increasing levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in Earth's atmosphere has become one of the most pressing issues of our age. As such, much research has been conducted to find ways not ...

Scientists at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed a catalyst that “essentially reverses” the combustion of ethanol, directly converting carbon dioxide into ethanol, ...

Scientists working for the Department of Energy have developed an electrochemical process to convert carbon dioxide (CO 2) into ethanol. Oak Ridge National Laboratory said the team used nano-spike ...

Scientists at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory have accidentally discovered a process by which they are able to convert the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide into ethanol that can be used for fuel. The ...

Researchers from institutions worldwide have been working to develop a method that will allow them to convert pollution in the form of carbon dioxide and hydrogen into ethanol. Ethanol is a fuel that ...

ABSTRACT To reduce carbon dioxide emission and to relieve the demand of fossil fuels, ethanol is regarded as one of the most promising alternative fuels for gasoline. Recently, using ethanol in the ...

Ethanol in fuel, particularly petrol, has been trending on the internet for a few days. Availability of E20 (20 percent ethanol blended) petrol has risen to a great extent in fuel refilling stations ...
