A team led by Professor Osami Shoji at Nagoya University in Japan has developed a technology to convert methane, the principal component of natural gas, into methanol at room temperature in water.

Taking a leaf out of the book of plants, scientists have used a photosynthesis blueprint to harness the power of sunlight and turn two of the most destructive greenhouse gases into useful, prized ...

They tuned methane molecules to specific quantum states, scattered them off a gold (Au) surface, and measured their states after the collision. The results, published in Science, revealed clear ...

New research shows rising hydrogen emissions since 1990 have indirectly intensified climate change and amplified the impact of methane. Limiting leaks from future hydrogen fuel projects and cutting ...

Methane (CH 4) is a potent greenhouse gas. Although it is short-lived compared to carbon dioxide (methane stays in the atmosphere for about seven to ten years, while carbon dioxide can remain for over ...

Deep down, beneath the icy edges of the Greenland Sea, a remarkable and previously undiscovered geological and biological ...

The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has made the first detection ever of an organic molecule in a planet orbiting another star. This breakthrough is an important step in eventually identifying signs ...

Rising global emissions of hydrogen over the past three decades have added to the planet's warming temperatures and amplified the impact of methane, one of the most potent greenhouse gases, according ...
