A simple design approach and predictive computational methods have spawned a pathway for making materials that could trap specific molecules — an ability needed for applications such as carbon capture ...

Jessica Rimsza, a materials engineer at Sandia National Laboratories, sees untapped potential in what most people see as waste. Food scraps, manure and sewage are natural byproducts of the U.S.

The dissolution of a gas in water can be regarded conceptually as a two-step process. The first conceptual step is the formation of a cavity in liquid water large enough to accommodate a gas molecule ...
