A milestone in chemistry was achieved through the use of fluorine: the discovery of the reactivity of noble gases — when xenon fluoride was prepared by Neil Bartlett in 1962 — which challenged ...

Carbon dioxide, or CO2, is the best-known greenhouse gas. But several others are also changing the Earth’s climate. Methane (CH4) is the second most important greenhouse gas linked to human ...

Rising demand for ultra-high purity gases drives semiconductor innovation, with TSMC, Samsung, and Intel leading consumption, ...

Greenhouse gases refers to a number of chemicals in the earth’s atmosphere, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and industrial ones like fluorinated or F-gases. If they’re allowed to build ...

Fluorinated greenhouse gases (PFCs, HFCs and SF6) are found in fridges, freezers, heat pumps, air conditioners, and electrical networks. Even in small quantities, they stand out for their ...

Emissions of fluorinated gases are attributed to industry, which produced the gases, not to the end users of those gases. “Other” includes emissions from water treatment, waste (e.g. landfills ...

The real reason Russia wants to leave the Baltics in the dark ...

The five gases proposed by the researchers are used on Earth in industrial applications such as making computer chips. They include fluorinated versions of methane, ethane, and propane ...

This also includes greenhouse gases that are emitted outside the Netherlands for the purpose of Dutch consumption of products and services. On the other hand, emissions released during the production ...
