New research from Professor J. Will Medlin and collaborators at three other institutions points to a new, inexpensive and sustainable method of synthesizing hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide has ...

The CoPc/CB-Mag catalyst greatly enhanced the efficiency of the reaction, producing an impressive 90 % H 2 O 2, the researchers found. Notably, the catalyst uses up to seven orders of magnitude less ...

First produced by French chemist Louis Jacques Thénard in 1818, hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) has many uses. The chemical industry produces over 5 million tonnes of H 2 O 2 per year, for products such ...

Scientists introduce a new catalyst to reduce oxygen to widely used hydrogen peroxide. The process sidesteps complex and expensive processes that generate toxic organic byproducts and large amounts of ...

Ensuring that water is safe to use and consume can be a real chore, especially for those who live in impoverished areas without access to safe drinking water. Here is where researchers at Stanford ...

A quick, cheap and highly efficient method for producing a water-purifying chemical has been developed by researchers at Cardiff University. The team, from the Cardiff Catalyst Institute, Lehigh ...
