Converting CO2 using microwaves!

Trapping carbon dioxide and then converting it to methane enables reducing greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere and recycle CO2 into a sustainable fuel, provided renewable H2 is employed. Microwave-based reactors provide an efficient means...

Direct observation of the isomerization of aliphatic peroxy radicals

Article published in Angewandte Chemie (DOI: 10.1002/anie.201907981) Organic peroxy radicals are short-lived chemical intermediates formed by the oxidation of organic compounds (combustion, atmospheric chemistry, metabolisms …) very difficult to observe directly. A mass spectrometry technique,...
