Researchers in China have developed a new catalyst that helped a lithium-sulfur battery retain 93 percent of its capacity ...

All-solid-state batteries promise to be lighter and safer than today’s batteries for transportation. Argonne scientists have discovered a way to boost their performance, bringing them one step closer ...

Abstract: Sulphur hexafluoride (SFΑ) remains critical for medium- and high-voltage switchgear due to its exceptional insulating and arc-quenching properties. However, its high global warming potential ...

Petroleum hydrocarbons, including monoaromatic compounds like toluene, are pervasive contaminants in soils, sediments, and aquifers, arising from extraction, refining, storage, and accidental releases ...

Sulfur (S) deficiency in soils is becoming increasingly common in many areas of the world as a result of agronomic practices, high biomass exportation and reduced S emissions to the atmosphere. In ...

Elemental profiles (i.e., Ti, S, Ni, Fe, Mn) were measured on split core sections, using an ITRAX X-ray fluorescence core scanner (Cox Analytical Systems, Mölndal, Sweden). Scanning was conducted at 5 ...

Almost all life on land and in the ocean was wiped out during "The Great Dying," a mass extinction event at the end of the Permian Era about 250 million years ago. New evidence suggests that the Great ...

Scientists led by microbiologists from the University of Vienna have uncovered a previously unknown microbial metabolism in which “MISO” bacteria breathe iron minerals by oxidizing toxic sulfide.

In a world without plants or animals, microorganisms ruled Earth, and the Great Oxidation Event (GOE) marked a pivotal transformation. But how did life adapt when the once-toxic oxygen began to ...
