In the first episode of our series on pollution, we’re turning to the very thing necessary for human life: air. Environmental engineer Pete DeCarlo introduces us first to the tools chemists use to study the air, including the early innovations by chemist Arnold Beckman. These tools alarmed us to the problem of air pollution and its impact on human health, from the smog derived from cars in Los Angeles to the gases escaping from factories in Louisiana, the home of Cancer Alley, an 85-mile indu...

Hvordan får man fat i noget af det mest nyttige, og som er allestedsnærværende, men stadig utilgængeligt? Man bruger Haber-Bosch processen. Sådan får du ammoniak til kunstgødning ud af kvælstoffet i luften. Og det er grunden til at halvdelen af os findes her på Jorden. Så i dette afsnit vender vi historien bag processen (hvem var Haber og hvem var Bosch?), gennemgår processen og hvorfor den er så elegant, samt hvorfor planter har brug for løbende at få tilført gødning, for at kunne lave god m...

A man drives home on a cold November night in 1966, and the road in front of him stops feeling like the world he knows. Along Interstate 77 near Parkersburg, West Virginia, Woodrow Derenberger reports a craft close enough to halt traffic and a stranger with a fixed smile who “speaks” without moving his mouth. Minutes later it’s gone, but the details stick, especially that smile. Ten days after, downriver near Point Pleasant and the abandoned TNT area, another report lands in the dark: someth...

En kold septembermorgen på Skotlands højeste bjergtop ser en ung fysiker sig selv som en kæmpe i skyerne, omgivet af en regnbuefarvet glorie. Synet tænder en gnist, som fører til et af de fysikhistoriens vigtigste instrumenter. For Wilson sætter sig for at skabe kunstige skyer i laboratoriet - men ender helt uventet med en afslørende tåge, der pludselig gør det usynlige synligt.Videnskabens vindere er en RAKKERPAK original i samarbejde med Science Report. Podcasten bliver til med støtte fra

Wist je dat de zorgsector verantwoordelijk is voor 7% van de totale CO2-uitstoot én 4% van het nationale afval in Nederland? Stel je voor: elke operatie leidt tot bergen afval – van blauwe wraps tot stapels handschoenen – terwijl de patiënt centraal lijkt te staan. Maar wat als we onze kijk op zorgmaterialen radicaal veranderen? In deze aflevering duiken Sven Jurgens en zijn gasten in de wereld van zorg, duurzaamheid en innovatie: Schelto Kruijff, oncologisch chirurg en Chief Green Officer bij het,

What does it actually take to win commercially in the age of AI — and how is it different from what chemical companies have done before?In this episode of DigiChem Dialogues, host Jay Bhatia sits down with Dan Futter, Chief Commercial Officer at Dow, and Chris Musso, Senior Partner and Global Chemicals Lead at McKinsey, for an unscripted conversation on one of the most urgent questions facing the chemical industry right now.Dan and Chris pull no punches. From AI-mediated customer discovery and the

Salt may be one of the most familiar substances in everyday life, but in this episode of SUBSTANCE, host Joe Hanson explores how a special class of salts could help decarbonize one of the most overlooked parts of the energy system: heat. With the help of experts Dr. Nils-Olof Born of BASF and Assistant Professor Silvia Trevisan of KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Joe Hanson looks at how so-called molten salts can store and deliver heat for industrial processes without relying on

Danske Johannes Fibiger fik Nobelprisen i medicin for at bevise, at en rundorm kan fremkalde kræft. Det kunne den ikke.Men lægen, der ligger begravet under en hængepil på Garnisonskirkegården på Østerbro i København, roterer alligevel ikke i sin grav. For Nobelpriser kan ikke trækkes tilbage, og historien om hvorfor er langt mere interessant end selve fejltagelsen.I dette afsnit af Videnskabens Vindere besøger vi en af dansk videnskabs mest fascinerende skikkelser: manden der opfandt lodtrækningen i

Dr. Dave Berkowitz was born in 1960 in Urbana, Illinois. He earned a bachelor’s degree in chemistry from the University of Chicago, where he did undergraduate research. Next, he earned his doctorate from Harvard University. However, his advisor, Steve Benner, moved from Harvard to ETH Zurich, also called the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology.

A phase 3 clinical trial is underway to determine the effectiveness of an mRNA vaccine for H5N1, a strain of influenza that is currently of concern. The virus, which is commonly found in birds across the world and is rarely transmitted to humans. However, when it is transmitted, the disease is often fatal, and scientists fear that if the virus were to mutate, it could lead to rapid, widespread infection. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, governments around the world are keen to be better prepared for
