Higher alcohols (C2+OH), important intermediates for fine chemicals, are mainly produced via petrochemical route, which is energy-intensive and...

Plants exist a large number of secondary metabolites with complex structures, which constitute the unique taste of each plant species. As an agricultural...

Chinese Academy of Sciences Biomethane (CH Currently, CH 4 is mainly produced via a multi-step process in which biomass is first gasified into biogas, followed by the methanation of the latter. This method requires high temperature and pressure and shows low selectivity for chemical or biological processes. Recently, a research group led by Prof. WANG Feng from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Prof. WANG Min’s group from Dalian University of Technology, proposed interfacial oxygen-vacancy (Vo)-mediated catalysis over Ru/TiO 2...

Chinese Academy of Sciences Global warming imposes a major threat to plant growth and crop production. In many cases, plants could sense the temperature increase and adjust their morphology and development, facilitating plant cooling and warm adaptation. Hence, understanding the mechanisms of these morphological and developmental changes, collectively called thermomorphogenesis, could benefit the breeding of warm-adaptive crops. Recently, a research team led by Dr. JIANG Danhua from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology (IGDB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) investigate...

Gold nanocatalyst is a potential catalyst for CO preferential oxidation (PROX) reaction. However, with the increase of reaction temperatures, CO...
