1·The key component is made from the metal cerium, which is almost as abundant as copper, unlike other rare and expensive metals frequently used as catalysts, such as platinum.
其核心部件是由金属铈制成，这种金属与铜一样储量广泛，而不像其它通常被用作催化剂的金属那样稀有和昂贵，例如铂。
2·Here and across the world the race is on to develop new absorbers, catalysts and membranes that will permit the large-scale realisation of an idea that could change the world for good.
全世界范围的竞赛已经开始，以求开发新的吸收剂，催化剂和膜结构，这将使我们得以大规模的实现人工光和，这个能永久改变我们的世界的想法。
3·Plants catch light and turn it into an electric current, then use that energy to excite catalysts that split water into hydrogen and oxygen during what is called photosynthesis' light cycle.
植物捕获光线，转换成电流，然后利用这一这能量激活催化剂，然后把水分解成氢和氧，这一过程被称为光合作用的亮循环。
4·The goal is to direct molecules to perform as catalysts and create long-range order.
我们的目标是直接作为催化剂进行分子和创造长期的订单。
5·For example, "cracking" involves breaking larger hydrocarbons into smaller ones with either heat or catalysts.
例如，“裂解”在催化剂和加热下，将大分子的碳氢化合物破坏成小的。
