The chemistry Nobel laureate Gerhard Ertl, who is celebrating his 90th birthday today, is known for his fundamental research on chemical reactions that are crucial in applications such as fuel cells and automotive catalysts. #GerhardErtl #Nobelpreis #Chemie (translated)
A 68-year-old employee of an external company suffered a fatal workplace accident during excavation work at the BASF chemical plant in Ludwigshafen; despite rapid rescue measures in the hospital, he died from his injuries. #Arbeitsunfall #BASF #Ludwigshafen (translated)
The author wrote that once again tens of thousands of people from across the country marched through Brussels to protest against what he described as the social dismantling by the De Wever-Rousseau government. Among the protesters were, according to the author, chemical workers, nurses, railway workers, teachers, cultural workers, and young people. Their message was that enough is enough. https://t.co/vsiBSERlIg #Protest #SocialeRechten #Brussel #BE (translated)
The Enterprise Chamber has decided that no further investigation is needed into the policy of the chemical company OCI, allowing a previous acquisition by the Egyptian construction company Orascom to proceed. #OCI #chemiebedrijf #bedrijfsovername (translated)
Malca Goldstein-Wolf wrote that Henri Kagan received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2026 at the age of 95. As a Jewish boy, he lived with his family under a false name in France during World War II. Kagan shared the award with Japanese professor Kenso Soai. Both were recognized for their work on mirror-image molecules, which Goldstein-Wolf stated have contributed to the safer and more precise production of medications. #Nobelpreis #Chemie #Wissenschaft (translated)
South Korea has announced a billion-dollar investment program to advance the green transformation of its energy-intensive industries, including steel, chemicals, and computer chips, by 2035 and to significantly reduce CO₂ emissions. #Klimaschutz #Südkorea #Energiewende (translated)
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry has been awarded to a French and a Japanese researcher for their breakthrough in unraveling chemical mirror images. #beveiliging #onlineveiligeheid #Cloudflare (translated)
Chemists Henri Kagan and Kenso Soai were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for finding a way to keep chirality-related, harmful mirror-image twins of molecules at bay, which is particularly important in drug manufacturing. #Nobelpreis #Chemie #Forschung (translated)
The news broadcast in Simple Language reports on 07.10.2026 about the 3rd anniversary of the Hamas attack on Israel, a proposed law against digital violence, the Nobel Prize for Chemistry, Messi's last game for Argentina, and the weather. #Hamasüberfall #digitaleGewalt #Nobelpreis (translated)
"Our reaction is of course not the final answer. The field should be advanced further and researched more intensively to better understand life." #Nobelpreis #Chemie #Chiralität (translated)
"the coolest experiment in organic chemistry" The Japanese chemist Kenso Soai then developed a method that chemist Peter Somfai called "the coolest experiment in organic chemistry" during the announcement by the Nobel Committee: #Nobelpreis #Chemie #Chiralität (translated)
Henri Kagan and Kenso Soai were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for discovering a fundamental concept of chirality in organic chemistry, which enables far-reaching applications in drug development and other chemical processes. #Nobelpreis #Chemie #Chiralität (translated)
The ARD reports on the innovative chemical work of two Nobel laureates, who explain the complex concepts of chemistry with illustrative examples, such as pretzels. #Nobelpreis #Chemie #ARD (translated)
"It is perhaps the most fundamental question of life, because something like that must have happened four billion years ago, when life originated, and we have now replicated it for the first time in the laboratory," said his committee colleague Peter Somfai, who believes that the work of the laureates has brought humanity closer for the first time in laboratory conditions to understanding how life originated on Earth. #NobelovaCena #Chemie #AsymetrickáSyntéza (translated)
"It is the most exciting day of my life. I am very glad that I can share the prize with Professor Henri Kagan," he said in a phone call broadcast to the headquarters of the academy Soai. #NobelovaCena #Chemie #AsymetrickáSyntéza (translated)
Frenchman Henri Kagan and Japanese Kenso Soai were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their discovery of nonlinear effects and autocatalysis in asymmetric organic synthesis, which contributes to the optimization of the production of pharmaceuticals, fertilizers, and perfumes, and illuminates the process of homochirality formation, a key phenomenon in chemistry. #NobelovaCena #Chemie #AsymetrickáSyntéza (translated)
"It is perhaps the most fundamental question of life, because something like this must have happened four billion years ago when life originated, and we have now mimicked it for the first time in the laboratory," said Somfai after receiving the award. #NobelovaCena #chemie #asymetrickáSyntéza (translated)
