When it comes to cleaning up marine oil spills, it’s best if you can use a material that separates the oil from the seawater. Scientists have created a new organic membrane which does exactly that, and it’s derived from oyster mushrooms.Continue Readin… Continue reading Mushroom-derived membranes may make for greener oil-spill cleanups
China’s extremely rapid adoption of EVs has forced oil giant Sinopec to adjust its forecasts, saying peak domestic gasoline demand has already passed and it’s all downhill from here. The repercussions will be global; China has been the biggest growth m… Continue reading China’s #1 oil company says peak gasoline demand has already passed
Some services at Petro-Canada gas stations have been disrupted following a cyberattack on parent company Suncor, one of North America’s largest energy companies.

There are two purposes for the borehole: one is for scientific exploration and the other is to find oil and gas. Continue reading China Is Digging a 10,000-Meter Hole
Scientists at the University of Georgia have created a “superfoam” with two very valuable potential applications. It could be used not only to clean up oil spills, but also to keep infections from occurring at medical implant sites.Continue ReadingCate… Continue reading Multi-functional “superfoam” soaks up oil spills and kills bacteria
It’s always upsetting to see images of seabirds covered in crude oil, as the result of an accidental spill. According to a new study, however, even tiny amounts of routinely released waterborne oil may seriously damage such birds’ feathers.Continue Rea… Continue reading Study suggests that even small amounts of crude oil can harm seabirds
Texan company Cemvita is promising clean hydrogen at less than US$1/kg, after testing a fascinating new technique in the lab and the field. The idea is to pump specially developed microbes into depleted oil wells, where they’ll eat oil and excrete hydr… Continue reading Oil-eating microbes excrete the world’s cheapest “clean” hydrogen
The global oil industry wastefully burns off about as much natural gas as is used by all of Central and South America – but a new methane binding agent offers a potential way for this greenhouse gas to be converted economically into liquid fuels.Contin… Continue reading New methane binding process could end insanely wasteful burn-offs
For as long as I’ve been driving, I’ve been changing oil. Longer than that, actually — before I even got my license, I did a lot of the maintenance and …read more Continue reading Big Chemistry: Synthetic Oil
