Scientists are crafting a new cheap ingredient that can make carbon dioxide work harder and smarter in extracting oil. With a recent $1.3 million grant from the National Energy Technology Laboratory ...

It seems like everything we want or need has been affected by either a supply shortage or inflation. Even things we never thought could be impacted, such as CO2, are becoming harder to get. Whenever ...

Scientists at the Chinese Academy of Sciences and China University of Petroleum (Beijing) have demonstrated that CO2 may make a better hydraulic fracturing (fracking) fluid than water. Their research, ...

A new electrode design developed at MIT boosts the efficiency of electrochemical reactions that turn carbon dioxide into ethylene and other products. As the world struggles to reduce greenhouse gas ...

A new catalyst made from molybdenum carbide and sugar converts CO2 into CO with 100% selectivity. The catalyst remains stable over time, making it suitable for industrial applications. The catalyst ...

It's trash when it's spewed into the atmosphere from burning fossil fuels. But it's treasure when it's pumped into an oil reservoir. The world's top scientists believe man-caused carbon dioxide ...

LONDON (Reuters) - Making cleaner fuels could cause more harmful emissions -- an oil refining paradox. Plans to tighten European fuel quality rules to cut air pollution will need a huge increase in ...
