A faster way of converting natural gas to energy

Chemical engineering researchers have managed to identify a new mechanism to convert natural gas into energy up to 70 times faster, while effectively capturing the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2).

Bolstering natural gas efficiency with solar power

Clean energy purists might not like the idea of making any concession to fossil fuel use, but if you believe incremental progress is good, a technology that uses solar power to boost the efficiency of natural gas power plants at least qualifies as intriguing.

Natural gas debate sparked over exports

Natural gas is a versatile fossil fuel used all around the world for heating buildings, generating electricity, and powering industry.

System turns greenhouse gases into fuel

A Californian company has filed a patent for a technology which it says allows CO2 and natural gas to be converted directly to gasoline.
