Most commercial dark chocolate combines the fruit from the cocoa nut with sugar from sugar beets. But now, Swiss scientists show how we can use the outer layer of the cocoa pod to sweeten our delectable treat.
Researchers have developed a new way to recycle blended fabrics.
Carbon dioxide can be converted into useful materials using electrochemistry. This is doubly advantageous, since we can stop carbon dioxide entering the atmosphere and also produce something useful that usually comes from fossil fuels.
Carbon dioxide and biomass combinations can reduce the carbon emissions of polyurethane production, but has negative effects on other environmental parameters.
Catalysts can make reactions more efficient and less wasteful, but some metals catalysts are toxic and can cause environmental damage. Researchers have found an alternative catalyst made from the flowers of St John’s Wort and are using it to make chemistry more eco-friendly.
The addition of common table salt can transform the workings of a complex organic chemistry reaction.
