A more energy-efficient catalytic process to produce olefins

Research at the University of Pittsburgh into a more energy-efficient catalytic process to produce olefins, the building blocks for polymer production, was recently featured on the inside front cover of the Royal Society of Chemistry journal, Catalysis Science & Technology (May 21, 2017, Issue 10). The team’s investigations could influence potential applications in diverse technology areas from green energy and sustainable chemistry to materials engineering and catalysis.
