New US catalyst turns wasted natural gas into liquid fuel below 212°F
Researchers in the US have developed a cheap sulfur-tolerant catalyst that could convert wasted methane into easily transportable and valuable liquid chemicals and fuels. The research was conducted by the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). It focused on molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), an earth-abundant industrial catalyst. The team said it can be used with minimal tweaking to selectively turn methane into methyl p…
Abundant catalyst converts methane into valuable liquid chemicals
Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory and their collaborators have demonstrated a promising new approach for converting methane—the primary component of natural gas—into liquid chemicals that are precursors for many industrial chemicals and fuels. The research, described in a paper just published in Advanced Functional Materials, shows how molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), an earth-abundant industrial cata…
