The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

A new iron complex has been developed as a catalyst for the oxidation of methane to selectively convert it to methanol. This complex can efficiently oxidize methane by internally trapping methane ...

In a concerted effort with collaborators from the University College London, Professor Zhengxiao GUO from the Department of Chemistry, The University of Hong Kong (HKU), and Professor Junwang TANG, ...

Activation of dioxygen (O 2) has attracted enormous attention due to its potential for utilization of methane and applications in other selective oxidation reactions. We (Edyta Tabor, Jiri Dedecek, ...

Professor Zhengxiao Guo from the Department of Chemistry at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) and Professor Junwang Tang, now at the Department of Chemical Engineering at Tsinghua University, have ...

Scientists have developed a fast and economical method of converting methane, or natural gas, into liquid methanol at ambient temperature and pressure. The method takes place under continuous flow ...

MAN Energy Solutions has announced that it is developing an oxidation catalyst for four-stroke engines that will significantly reduce methane slip. Called ‘IMOKAT II’ and developed at MAN Energy ...

Although it is less abundant than carbon dioxide, methane gas contributes disproportionately to global warming because it ...

Tsukuba, Japan—Extensive research has been conducted on the oxidation of methane to obtain methanol for the production of useful compounds, such as formaldehyde, dimethyl ether, etc. However, methane ...
