Microwave-assisted catalytic reactions are considered energy-efficient and have attracted attention in various chemical ...

The model is based on and modified from ‟Anaerobic Digestion Model No.1” (ADM1), calibrated and validated by operational data taken from a fullscale plant. Results show that 1) the methane yield ...

Photocatalytic uphill conversion of natural gas beyond the limitation of thermal reaction systems. Nature Catalysis, 2020; DOI: 10.1038/s41929-019-0419-z ...

Feb. 23 (UPI) --Scientists at Duke University have developed a new method for catalyzing the conversion of carbon dioxide into methane, a component of many alternative fuels. The reaction is ...

Animals produce methane during the digestion process -- some more than others. Currently, around 20 percent of the world's methane emissions stem from ruminants. If this gas is released into the ...

Earth’s atmosphere contains oxygen, so methane molecules get destroyed in about 10 years. “So [methane] needs to be produced extremely rapidly [to remain in the atmosphere],” she says.
