Zeolites encapsulated metal and metal oxide species (regarded as metal@zeolite) is an important type of heterogeneous catalysts. They give performances that steadily outperform the traditional ...

Endowed with a network of interconnected, molecule-sized pores and channels, zeolites have been used in chemical separations, oil refining, and catalysis for decades ...

Engineered surfactants direct the formation of microporous nanosheets exhibiting superior catalytic lifetimes. Zeolites — minerals formed from silicon and aluminum — have intricate networks of acidic ...

Zeopore Technologies and BioBTX have announced a 'major advancement' in converting waste plastics and biomass into circular ...

Thanks to various crystalline topologies, tunable chemical composition, high (hydro)thermal stability, and controllable surface acidity/basicity, zeolites are widely used in petroleum refining, ...

Fuel from waste? It is possible. But hitherto, converting organic waste to fuel has not been economically viable. Excessively high temperatures and too much energy are required. Using a novel catalyst ...

Chemical engineers at MIT have designed a cobalt catalyst that transforms polymers into propane selectively and efficiently (JACS Au, 2022, DOI: 10.1021/jacsau.2c00402). This method could provide an ...

A research team discovers new zeolite catalysts for catalytic cracking applications. A research team at POSTECH has uncovered a promising new zeolite, anticipated to be a turning point for the oil ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Researchers have discovered a new reaction mechanism that could be used to improve catalyst designs for pollution-control systems to further reduce emissions of smog-causing ...

Push in BTX yield and emission reduction. The results show that Zeopore’s gallium-containing mesoporous ZSM-5 catalysts ...

Today’s fuels rely mainly on petroleum. Scientists are exploring for ways to manufacture fuels that do not require petroleum as demand rises. A team of researchers set out to investigate the function ...
