Sunlight hits tiny particles of plastic floating in a clear water solution. Slowly, they begin to disappear, leaving behind a ...

By watching Alzheimer’s-related protein clumping unfold second by second, researchers have uncovered new clues about the role of metal ions.

A catalyst design developed in the lab of Professor Ted Sargent increases efficiency, turning captured CO₂ into high-purity ethylene for plastics and packaging.

An Oregon State University scientist and a team of undergraduate students have uncovered real-time insights into a chemical ...

Chemists have developed a catalytic process that turns the largest component of today's plastic waste stream, polyolefin plastic bags and bottles, into gases -- propylene and isobutylene -- that are ...

A novel parallel computing framework for chemical process simulation has been proposed by researchers from the East China University of Science and Technology and the University of Sheffield. This ...

Chemical product and process design constitutes a multidisciplinary endeavour integrating chemical engineering principles, advanced computational methods and sustainability objectives to develop ...

University of Alberta geochemists have discovered a missing piece to one of the great mysteries of science—the origin of life on Earth. That fateful spark is believed to have occurred on the ocean's ...

Modular process design represents a transformative approach in chemical engineering that utilises standardised and pre‐engineered units to assemble production facilities. This strategy facilitates ...

Process chemists are responsible for identifying a chemical process that is safe, cost-efficient, and environmentally friendly. How do they do it on a day-to-day basis? Join ACS Institute Educator Joe ...

This chapter describes recent efforts by the chemical and petroleum industries to define process safety metrics suited to the needs of their enterprises. It then discusses how such concepts can be ...
