Additionally, some discovered substances may allow the re-treatment of tuberculosis, including strains that have developed resistance to existing drugs. The findings were published in the journal “Cell Chemical Biology” under the title “Discovery of Dual-Action Ethionamide Boosters Inhibiting the ESX-1… Continue reading Treating tuberculosis when antibiotics no longer work

Decarbonize natural gas while integrating hydrogen into the energy mix of hard-to-abate sectors

Companies across industries are increasingly adopting stringent climate measures. Achieving these ambitious goals requires various technological choices and solutions, considering not only emissions but also the reliability and cost-effectiveness of technologies. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), natural gas stands out as the cleanest fossil fuel. When used for power generation, it produces fewer… Continue reading Decarbonize natural gas while integrating hydrogen into the energy mix of hard-to-abate sectors

Green steel – revolutionizing a mature industry

Steel, the most widely used metal in the past two centuries, stands as a fundamental component of nearly all infrastructure supporting modern industrial societies. Its value chain contributes to approximately $30 trillion in economic activity, providing millions of job opportunities. Unfortunately, the steel production process ranks as the second-largest emitter of greenhouse gases (GHG), accounting… Continue reading Green steel – revolutionizing a mature industry
