I’m a big-time chemical and a clue to how chemists are celebrating Earth Week this year. What molecule am I? Formic acid is the simplest carboxylic acid. Its discovery in the distillation products of ...

Photoreduction of CO2 into transportable fuel like formic acid (HCOOH) is a great way of dealing with CO2's rising levels in the atmosphere. To aid in this mission, a research team chose an easily ...

As the world seeks solutions to reduce carbon emissions and transition toward a sustainable and cost efficient chemical industry, efficient utilization of CO₂ has become a major challenge. In response ...

Joost de Gouw is at the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences and in the Department of Chemistry, University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado 80309, USA. Formic acid constitutes a ...

A research group at KAIST has developed an engineered E. coli strain that converts formic acid and CO2 to pyruvate and produces cellular energy from formic acid through reconstructed one-carbon ...

Held together by only one carbon atom, formic acid is the simplest carboxylic acid. The market for this chemical is relatively small as well—a fraction of the demand for organic acids such as ...

Flowchart of the process (above) for producing formic acid through the conversion of newly developed carbon dioxide (CO2) using Carbon Capture & Utilization (CCU), and pilot-scale process verification ...

The Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO), TNO, GAFT, Waterfuture, University of Twente, and DENS The new eCO2FORM project with a total of five project partners is coordinated by TNO and it aims to ...

The acidity of the atmosphere is increasingly determined by carbon dioxide and organic acids such as formic acid. The second of these impact the growth of clouds and pH of rainwater. But the chemical ...

It’s pretty clear why the tawny crazy ant gets the “crazy” label. The golden-colored ant tends to run around erratically, stopping abruptly and turning before darting off in a seemingly haphazard ...
