  "textContent": "A new electrolyzer turns waste-derived syngas into ethylene with significantly lower energy input. Ethylene sits at the center of modern manufacturing. It is used to make plastics and many other everyday materials, but producing it often comes with a major climate penalty. For every ton of ethylene created, one ton of carbon dioxide is produced.
