Ancient sediments that once resided on a lake bed and the ocean floor show sulfur isotope ratios unlike those found in other samples from the same time, calling into question accepted ideas about when ...

But a team of Chinese researchers has managed to turn sulfur’s complex chemistry into a strength, making it the primary ...

Lithium-sulfur batteries have exceptional theoretical capacity and performance in combination with an element in abundant supply. But the intricate reaction mechanism, particularly during discharge, ...

Persistent pharmaceutical residues such as carbamazepine are increasingly detected in natural waters, posing long-term ...

Researchers at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics have designed a rhodium catalyst whose microenvironment is tuned by both sulfur and phosphine ligands, based on an industrial single-site ...

The heterogeneous reaction of thiols with lead oxide to form insoluble lead thiolates is the basis for a new process that separates thiols from a hydrocarbon stream. The process uses inexpensive ...

Despite natural evidence indicating sulfur's importance and efficiency as a catalyst for critical redox reactions, including hydrogenation (addition of hydrogen to molecule) and dehydrogenation (its ...

Part 1 of this series of three articles dealt with the uses hydrogen and nitrogen found in oil refineries. Some of these uses have been around for a long time and are well known; others are newer, ...
