Singaporean researchers at the Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology havedevised a wayto convert carbon dioxide into clean - burning biofuel wood spirit , using a good , non - toxic process . Has human race defeated the final Bos of Global Warming ?
This scientific discovery was publish in the renowned chemical science journal Angewandte Chemie , who hold the breakthrough as “ very important . ” According to Gizmag , “ scientists have been able to make carbon dioxide react with a stable organocatalyst call N - heterocyclic carbene ( NHC ) under mild conditions in ironical air . ” After that , a dash of silica and a cutaneous senses of H are sum up in , where the entire mix is subjected to hydrolysis to produce the wood spirit .
The most hopeful part is that this NHC is a supposedly abundant gas . So here ’s hoping we in reality see this move past the idea stage . [ Gizmag ]
