Why is it important?

Our research presents a new way to turn greenhouse gases like CO₂ and NO into valuable chemicals using a unique indium-based catalyst. This approach reduces harmful emissions while producing useful compounds like ammonium formate, offering a sustainable solution for industry. It connects environmental goals with practical applications, paving the way for greener industrial practices.

Perspectives

Publishing this article has been an incredibly meaningful experience and stands as one of my most representative works. I hope this research inspires further innovation in sustainable technologies and fosters a broader understanding of how we can transform environmental challenges into opportunities for progress. Most importantly, I aspire for it to ignite meaningful discussions and actions.
