Turning carbon into #graphene is science. Doing it reproducibly at scale is engineering. Getting it into customers’ products is commercialization. That’s our focus at @ArgoGraphene. Financing closed. Scaling underway. Customers engaged. Time to build. #GrapheneRefineryProject

"The opportunity is immense. It is in a lot of industries — you name it, and there is a way it can make a difference. So far, availability of it [has been the constraint]. We're changing that." says CEO Dr. Vikas Berry when sitting down with @scaramucci Graphene's limitation was never the science. It was supply. Argo's proprietary STREAM™ technology platform is built to produce graphene at commercial scale — serving construction, energy, agriculture, composites, and advanced manufacturing.* *Source: argographene.com 📍 argographene.com | CSE: ARGO | OTC: ARLSF | FSE: 94Y

“Ten years ago I was kicked out and forced to retire.” Our new medicine laureate Katalin Karikó (@kkariko) told us how much it means to be awarded the Nobel Prize after a scientific career that has been full of challenges. Ten years ago, Karikó was still doing all her experiments by hand but today she has been awarded the medicine prize for her research on mRNA, which led to the development of COVID-19 vaccines.

Our @AdvSciNews Adv. Energy Mat. Article onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… shows CoO NCs on graphene have high mass activity and selectivity for conversion of #nitrates to #ammonia, with total suppression of H2. Great collaboration from @vpdravid, @vikasberry, and Joe Gauthier's groups.
