Chemical reduction of graphene oxide (GO) to yield reduced graphene oxide (rGO) underpins the scalable production of graphene-like materials. Broadly, reductants range from hazardous reagents such as ...

The traditionally cumbersome yet widely-used Birch reduction can now be carried out in a mere minute in air using an optimized mechanochemical approach. Researchers at the Institute for Chemical ...

Taking their inspiration from nature, scientists have developed a new method for carrying out chemical reduction – an industrial process used to produce fuels and chemicals that are vital for modern ...

The use of electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction for the production of high value-added multicarbon fuels (ethylene, ethanol, acetic acid, n-propanol) is hampered by low selectivity and conversion ...

The rGO technique and its related processes have their foundations in the Brodie method, which later became the Hummers method. Variants of the technique then developed on from the Hummers method. The ...

Neste Oyj, an oil refining and marketing company headquartered in Espoo, Finland, has completed a life cycle assessment (LCA) on the environmental impacts of chemical recycling as incorporated into ...
