AI-guided catalyst turns CO₂ and waste into fertilizer at industrially relevant rates

AI-guided catalyst turns CO₂ and waste into fertilizer at industrially relevant rates Sadie Harley Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a computation-guided strategy to produce urea more efficiently from carbon dioxide and nitrate. By combining large language models, density functional theory calculations and experiments, the approach identified a cadmium-modified iron oxide catalyst that maintains high urea...
