Nanoporous Cu–Ru Catalysts for Selective CO₂ Electrochemical Conversion
TS-073880 —
Industrial CO₂ electroreduction remains limited by high energy input, poor selectivity, and low formation rates of valuable multi‑carbon products. Conventional copper catalysts often favor hydrogen evolution or low‑value C₁ products such as methane, while catalysts that improve selectivity…

Synthesis of Ammonia-Borane from Borane Complexes and Ammonia
TS-015119 — Safe, efficient, and convenient procedures for preparation of pure Ammonia borane in large-scale through displacement reactions have been developed
Ammonia borane, an ideal source of storage hydrogen, was first synthesized 50 years ago, but no synthetic method was reported for industrial scale preparation. For vehicular fuel cell applications, the use of amine-borane compound is costly and lacks a suitable reformer design for the on-demand ge…

Butanol Production from Renewable Biomass
TS-014747 — A genetically engineered bacteria pathway directed to selectively generate butanol over competing by-products.
Acetone-Butanol-Ethanol (ABE) Fermentation is one of two methods to produce butanol from biomass feedstocks. Various active enzymes or acids are exposed to a biomass feedstock and subsequently produce primarily acetone, butanol and ethanol. Previous attempts in the industry to use Clostridium stra…
