Behind the flask: we talk with Dr Sarah Cleary of HydRegen where the team are developing novel and sustainable strategies for using the growing toolbox of NADH-dependent redox biocatalysts in chemical synthesis. The post Behind the flask: Sustainable chemical manufacturing appeared first on Asynt .
The Centre for Sustainable Chemistry is housed in a brand new carbon neutral laboratory, the first of its kind in the UK, as part of the University of Nottingham.
Part funded by a very generous gift from GlaxoSmithKline, the building will serve as a hub to catalyse new collaborations with industry. The Centre is unique in the UK not only in its design but also in its focus on world-leading resear…
Element 19 (which is the number for potassium on the periodic table) shines a light on the remarkable Caltech discovery of a renewable potassium-based catalyst.…
The Future of Sustainable Chemistry As part of the ongoing events of the International Year of Chemistry, I was interviewed last month for a webinar titled “The Future of Sustainable Chemistry” which in turn is part of a broader series of webinars called “The Future We Create“. These events are sponsored mainly by the DOW […]
