(Nanowerk News) Audio cassettes make the production process for fuels less expensive: To produce nanoparticles made of inexpensive iron oxide cores with a very thin cobalt shell, an international team ...

Inspired by patents from the 1960s audio cassette recording industry, chemists now developed a new Fischer-Tropsch catalyst. It can be used for the making of synthetic fuels from natural gas and ...

A fundamental discovery about the Fischer Tropsch process, a catalytic reaction used in industry to convert coal, natural gas or biomass to liquid fuels, could someday allow for more efficient fuel ...

In a scene reminiscent of a television commercial, a man holds a glass of water-white liquid and extols the virtues of a process for making ultraclean diesel fuel. But there's no soothing background ...

Rosneft has proved its leadership in national GTL (gas-to-liquid) technologies development. First pilot batches of Fischer Tropsch synthesis catalysts have been produced at Angarsk catalyst and ...

WHOEVER SAID, "It's difficult to make predictions, especially about the future," probably wasn't referring to Fischer-Tropsch (FT) chemistry. But the adage is apt just the same. The economics of ...

A well-known reaction, Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis (FTS) has been receiving increased attention recently as a result of the growing interest in the microGTL process. Compact units are required for ...

From 5 to 7 May 2025, Mülheim an der Ruhr will become a meeting place for international researchers from science and industry: A top-class scientific conference will honour the Fischer-Tropsch ...
