Methane oxidation in landfill cover soils is a naturally occurring process whereby methanotrophic bacteria convert methane, a potent greenhouse gas, into less harmful compounds. This process is ...

Activation of dioxygen (O 2) has attracted enormous attention due to its potential for utilization of methane and applications in other selective oxidation reactions. We (Edyta Tabor, Jiri Dedecek, ...

Direct oxidation of methane to methanol is dominated by transition- or noble-metal-based catalysts, thus making the reaction quite expensive. To make the process efficient and cost-effective, ...

A methane oxidation catalyst system developed by Hitachi Zosen Corporation, Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL), and Yanmar Power Technologies Co. (YPT) has received approval in principle (AIP) from ...

MAN Energy Solutions has announced that it is developing an oxidation catalyst for four-stroke engines that will significantly reduce methane slip. Called ‘IMOKAT II’ and developed at MAN Energy ...

The optimal design of a novel zeolite catalyst enables tandem reaction that turns greenhouse gases into value-added chemicals, report scientists. By tuning the separation between different active ...

Avoiding the worst impacts of climate change may require removing methane from industrial emissions streams and the atmosphere — but researchers are so far stymied on how to capture the potent ...
