Chemists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a straightforward method to convert common chemicals like carboxylic acids, alcohols, and alkanes directly into valuable alkenes ...
Hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria are ubiquitous in marine environments. Some bacterial species are highly specialized to degrade hydrocarbons and are called hydrocarbonoclastic bacteria 1, such as ...
Complete combustion of alkenes produces carbon dioxide and water, provided there is a plentiful supply of oxygen. Incomplete combustion of alkenes occurs where oxygen is limited and produces water, ...
