  2. Sabatier reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabatier_reaction

    Paul Sabatier (1854-1941) winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1912 and discoverer of the reaction in 1897. The Sabatier reaction or Sabatier process produces methane and water from a reaction of hydrogen with carbon dioxide at elevated temperatures (optimally 300–400 °C) and pressures (perhaps 3 MPa [1]) in the presence of a nickel catalyst.

  3. Air freshener - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_freshener

    Air fresheners from Febreze. Air fresheners are products designed to reduce unwanted odors in indoor spaces, to introduce pleasant fragrances, or both. They typically emit fragrance to mask odors but may use other methods of action such as absorbing, bonding to, or chemically altering compounds in the air that produce smells, killing organisms that produce smells, or disrupting the sense of ...

  4. Gasification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasification

    However, this means that tar and methane production is significant at typical operation temperatures, so product gas must be extensively cleaned before use. The tar can be recycled to the reactor. In the gasification of fine, undensified biomass such as rice hulls, it is necessary to blow air into the reactor by means of a fan. This creates ...

  5. Atmospheric carbon cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_carbon_cycle

    More than 70% of atmospheric methane comes from biogenic sources. Methane levels have risen gradually since the onset of the industrial era, [13] from ~700 ppb in 1750 to ~1775 ppb in 2005. [10] Methane can be removed from the atmosphere through a reaction of the photochemically produced hydroxyl free radical (OH).

  6. Miller–Urey experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller–Urey_experiment

    The experiment used methane (CH 4), ammonia (NH 3), hydrogen (H 2), in ratio 2:1:2, and water (H 2 O). Applying an electric arc (simulating lightning) resulted in the production of amino acids . It is regarded as a groundbreaking experiment, and the classic experiment investigating the origin of life ( abiogenesis ).

    There is one thing that distinguishes 60-year-old Vo Van Van’s rice fields from a mosaic of thousands of other emerald fields across Long An province in southern Vietnam’s Mekong Delta: It isn ...

  8. Oxidative coupling of methane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidative_coupling_of_methane

    The oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) is a potential chemical reaction studied in the 1980s for the direct conversion of natural gas, primarily consisting of methane, into value-added chemicals. Although the reaction would have strong economics if practicable, no effective catalysts are known, and thermodynamic arguments suggest none can exist.

  9. Febreze - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Febreze

    First introduced in test markets in March 1996, [1] the fabric refresher product has been sold in the United States since June 1998, and the line has since branched out to include air fresheners (Air Effects), plug-in oil (Noticeables), scented disks (Scentstories), odor-eliminating candles, and automotive air fresheners.
