Gold nanoparticles act as catalysts for CO oxidation

Maria Sazonova ’26 Figure 1: Electron micrograph scan of hexagonal gold nanowire array Gold nanoparticles can effectively convert carbon monoxide from harmful waste products into usable fuels. Alexander Orlov and his research team, in collaboration with Brookhaven National Lab scientists and U.S. Air Force Laboratory, conducted a study to explore how gold nanoparticles (Au NPs), widely studied for their high catalytic activity, can accelerate the … Continue reading Gold nanoparticles act as catalysts for CO oxidation
