Ju ma timo sayusac mi VCU ginwangu piny maber mi loko thermochemical pa carbon dioxide ni formic acid — ginwangu ma copo mio yore manyen mi mako carbon ma copo dwoko piny ka ng'om ube lwiny ku aloka loka pa kite ma koth ku ceng ryeny kudu. Piny ma pire tek ma copo kelo carbon dioxide.
"Ungeyo maber nia dongo pa yamu ma nyayu lyethu i polo man adwogi marac migi ikum kabedu utiye acel ikin peko madongo ma dhanu ubewok kud i iye tin," ewacu jagor madit Dr. Shiv N. Khanna, Japonji madit mi Commonwealth i dipatmen. physics i Faculty of Humanities VCU. “Loko pa CO2 ni kemikol ma konyo calu formic acid (HCOOH) ubedo yore mukende maber mi jwigo adwogi marac pa CO2. Formic acid ubedo pii ma rac ma yot ni tero man kano i kabedo ma ngic. Ecopu bedu ni kemikol ma pire tek, gwoko hydrogen, man fuel ma copo bedu i anyim loki."
Hanna ku VCU jagor mi physics Dr. Turbasu Sengupta ginwangu niya dul pa chalcogenides ma jukuboth copo timo tic calu piny ma nyayu loko CO2 ni formic acid. Adwogi migi jukoro i waraga ma julwongo niya "Lok pa CO2 ni Formic Acid ku Tuning Quantum States in Metal Chalcogenide Clusters" ma juwodho i Communications Chemistry of Nature Portfolio.
"Wanyuthu niya, ku rwom maber pa ligands, reaction barrier mi loko CO2 ni formic acid copo bedu piny mandha, ma medo rwom pa tic pa formic acid," Hanna uwacu. "Ento wacopo wacu nia catalysts maeni copo ketho yiku pa formic acid doko yot nyo ma copo timere. Tic ku dul madongo ku kabedo mapol ma mako ligand nyoke ku ketho ligands ma tiyo maber utiye i rwom ma malu ku aloka loka mwa i loko formic acid ma wacopo nwangu ikum gin ma ju nyuthu i computational simulations."
Somo eni ucungo iwi tic pa Hanna mukadho ma nyutho nia yero maber pa ligand copo loko cluster ni superdonor ma mio electrons nyo acceptor ma jolo electrons.
"Kawoni wanyutho nia adwogi marom utiye ku copo madit i catalysis ma ucungo iwi chalcogenide clusters," Hanna uwacu. "Keru mi yubu dul ma ucungo maber man yub kero migi mi mio nyo jolo electrons oyabo yore manyen mi catalysis, pi en pol pa catalytic reactions ucungo iwi catalysts ma mio nyo jolo electrons."
Ngati acel m'ikind ju ma gisomo lembe mi ng'om, Dr. Xavier Roy, Japonji mi Chemistry i Columbia University, ebicidho i VCU in nindo 7 mi dwi mir angwen pi Spring Symposium mi Dipatmen mi Physics.
"Wabe timo tic kude ni neno kite ma wacopo yubu man tiyo kudu ku catalyst marom ku maeni ni tiyo ku laboratory pare mi temo," Hanna uwacu. "Watimo tic karacelu ku dul pare, kama giyubu iye piny manyen ma tek. I kare eni en re ma ebibedo jatel wi tic."
