A mirror on the reactor concentrates the sunlight for greater efficiency in the system. The absorption initiates a chemical reaction in the reactor that converts the CO2 into synthesis gas ...

Development and application of the theory of chemical kinetics, including collision, transition state, and surface reactivity approaches. Theory and analysis of reaction in heterogeneous phases.

The U.S. Chemical Safety Board has released its final report on the explosion at Louisville's Givaudan facility that killed ...

During the day, sunlight triggers a chemical reaction inside the reactor, breaking down CO₂ into syngas. This fuel can then be further refined into liquid fuels like methanol or synthetic ...

Chemical engineering seniors learn the intricacies of chemical process units. Here, a student team carefully monitors reactant concentrations in a reactor system. Senior students satisfied with the ...

TerraPower’s Natrium reactor is one such fast reactor ... In the latter case the problematic isotopes are removed via chemical processes as a lot of U-235 fuel remains in these fuel rods.

Research is now underway to develop new technologies for the reprocessing facility planned as part of the Experimental ...

Fines deposition is a perennial problem in the hydrotreating industry. It results in reactor fouling and pressure drop build-up, leading to premature reactor shutdown. This study investigated the ...
