Chinese researchers produce urea from CO2 and nitrate using copper catalyst

November 2, 2026 |

In China, researchers from Nanchang Hangkong University, Beihang University, Guangzhou University and South China Normal University have developed a catalyst that uses isolated copper atoms on titanium carbide to help turn carbon dioxide and nitrate into urea. By adjusting how electrons occupy the copper atoms’ orbitals, the team promoted a reaction pathway in which an […]
