More than 90 per cent of chemicals are produced in catalytic processes where the reaction is only feasible if a suitable catalyst is used. The search for better catalysts with higher selectivity and activity has…
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline highly-porous materials with adjustable physicochemical preperties, offering great potential for selective gas capture applications. With the aim of transfering MOF…
Designed protein-protein interactions provide a great tool for developing diverse applications in synthetic biology and biomedicine. To expand oligomerization possibilities researchers from the Department of synthetic…
A recent Chemistry of Materials article, co-authored by researchers from the Department of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Trieste, the Department of Materials Chemistry (D10) and Department…
In response to the pressing climate crisis caused by the burning of fossil fuels, the researcher from Institute of Chemical Engineering and Environmental Technology at Graz University of Technology in collaboration…
Woody biomass can be a very useful source of a plethora of platform chemicals but it needs to first be separated into cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose. Classical procedures are mostly focused on the preservation of…
The necessity of using solid catalysts for the conversion of monosaccharides to furans, such as furfural (FUR) and hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), is the paradigm reflected in hundreds of published scientific articles…
The transition to renewable energy sources through hydrogen technologies involves the electrolysis of water. Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolysis represents a highly efficient, responsive, dynamic and…
Conventional monitoring of Li-ion battery cell performance is carried out by combining empirical measurement of the extrinsic parameters with multipart modeling and approximation algorithms. A step forward would be…
The inadequate understanding of the mechanisms that reversibly convert molecular sulfur (S) into lithium sulfide (Li2S) via soluble polysulfides (PSs) formation impedes the development of high-performance…
