CoS-1 is a cobalt zeolite catalyst that boosts propylene production efficiently and stably, challenging platinum-based alternatives.

Propane dehydrogenation is an important industrial method for producing propylene without depending on oil. However, most current processes still depend heavily on precious-metal catalysts like those made with platinum. Finding efficient alternatives that use more common, earth-abundant metals has proven difficult.

A small team of researchers at Tongji University, working with a colleague from the Shanghai Academy of Landscape Architecture Science and Planning, both in China, has found that growing plants on roofs can serve as an effective way to remove microplastics from the air. In their study, published in the journal Communications Earth & Environment, the group measured the amounts of microplastics found on plants and the soil in which they grow.

Prior research has shown that growing plants on roofs can reduce heating and cooling bills and also clear pollution from the surrounding air. The research team wondered if that also included microplastics.

To find out, they built a simulated roof environment in their lab, where, in a thin layer of fresh soil, they planted two kinds of plants commonly used on rooftops in the city of Shanghai. They also introduced microplastic particles into the air above the plants at levels common to Shanghai. They then conducted simulated rains, measuring microplastic levels on the plants and in the soil.

Forget brute force—Stanford engineers are using finesse to tackle deadly clots.

A sudden volcano eruption has shaken a beloved vacation paradise, turning a dream getaway into a scene of danger and disruption. On the scenic island of Flores in Indonesia, the Lewotobi Laki-Laki volcano has erupted, casting a thick ash plume high into the sky and prompting urgent travel warnings from the German foreign office. If you were planning a trip to this stunning island near Bali, now is the time to pause and reconsider.

The Lewotobi Laki-Laki volcano, standing nearly 5,200 feet tall, sent a towering cloud of ash nearly 6 miles above its summit, according to Indonesia’s agency for volcanic and geological hazards. This spectacular but ominous plume has blanketed the area, forcing closures and safety zones as ash drifts across the island’s lush landscapes.
