Scientists introduce a new catalyst to reduce oxygen to widely used hydrogen peroxide. The process sidesteps complex and expensive processes that generate toxic organic byproducts and large amounts of ...

Hydrogen peroxide is one of the world's top 100 industrial chemicals with a wide range of applications in the chemical, medical, and semiconductor industries. Currently, hydrogen peroxide is mainly ...

The CoPc/CB-Mag catalyst greatly enhanced the efficiency of the reaction, producing an impressive 90 % H 2 O 2, the researchers found. Notably, the catalyst uses up to seven orders of magnitude less ...

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), a versatile chemical with critical applications in sterilization, wastewater treatment, and chemical synthesis, is conventionally produced via the anthraquinone process.

Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) is used to disinfect minor cuts at home and for oxidative reactions in industrial manufacturing. Now, the pandemic has further fueled demand for this chemical and its ...

Ensuring that water is safe to use and consume can be a real chore, especially for those who live in impoverished areas without access to safe drinking water. Here is where researchers at Stanford ...

A photoelectrochemical device uses sunlight, water, and oxygen to produce hydrogen peroxide efficiently, stably, and at scalable rates without grid electricity. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Hydrogen peroxide ...

Bonus: the catalyst can be recycled to produce hydrogen peroxide over and over. "However, hydrogen and oxygen also form water, and this proposed 'direct synthesis' method was known to synthesize 80 ...
