From plant to sustainable plastic

A research team working under the US Department of Energy’s Catalysis Center for Energy Innovation has developed a new way to turn plants into plastic. The scientists converted plant sugars to furfural, a compound common in bran. Then they converted furfural into something called tetrahydrofuran, also called oxolane, which is a precursor of plastics. Finally,...

A cure for AIDS?

Genetic engineering may hold the key to curing AIDS. Once inside the body, the often-lethal HIV virus that causes AIDS is hard to stamp out, partly because the virus incorporates itself into the genes of normal cells. That makes it hard to target with conventional drugs. Now a research team at Temple University has engineered...

Better artificial photosynthesis

At the University of Central Florida, researchers have found a way to re-create photosynthesis, the basic process of plant life, in a synthetic material. The group built a photoreactor, a structure in which light causes chemical reactions. Their reactor was a framework of titanium – a common, nontoxic metal – infused with organic molecules that...
