A fundamental discovery about the Fischer Tropsch process, a catalytic reaction used in industry to convert coal, natural gas or biomass to liquid fuels, could someday allow for more efficient fuel ...

Fischer–Tropsch (FT) technology is one of the most influential catalytic processes in the chemical industry, enabling the conversion of coal, biomass, and shale gas into fuels and chemicals. To mark ...

A nickel–thoria–kieselguhr (100: 18: 100) catalyst prepared mainly according to Fischer and Meyer 1, and rendered completely alkali-free after reduction, by washing with water, was studied by the ...

There is a great deal of argument over biofuels, and indeed we don't want to overuse them. But I don't think anyone argues that we can't get some of our power from biomass, or that we won't need a ...
