Force microscopy of the Caenorhabditis elegans embryonic eggshell

Martinus Gijs, Thomas Lehnert, Roger Philippe Krenger

Assays focusing on emerging biological phenomena in an animal's life can be performed during embryogenesis. While the embryo of Caenorhabditis elegans has been extensively studied, its biomechanical properties are largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that ...

Solar-Electrochemical Platforms for Sodium Hypochlorite Generation in Developing Countries

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Seyyed Mohammad Hosseini Hashemi, Enrico Chinello

On-site generation of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) holds the potential to bring an efficient and cost-effective water disinfection method to isolated and remote locations. Solar-driven, stand-alone reactors could provide those communities full independence ...

A comparative performance analysis of stand-alone, off-grid solar-powered sodium hypochlorite generators

Demetri Psaltis, Antonin Faes, Miguel Antonio Modestino, Enrico Chinello, Laurent Coulot

Sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) is a chemical commodity widely employed as a disinfection agent in water treatment applications. Its production commonly follows electrochemical routes in an undivided reactor. Powering the process with photovoltaic (PV) electri ...

Study of Hypochlorite Reduction Related to the Sodium Chlorate Process

Michael Markus Busch

Reduction of hypochlorite is the most important side reaction in the sodium chlorate reactor leading to high energy losses. Today chromate is added to the reactor solution to minimize the hypochlorite reduction but a replacement is necessary due to health ...

Effects of carbonate on the electrolytic removal of ammonia and urea from urine with thermally prepared IrO2 electrodes

Christos Comninellis, Véronique Amstutz, Agnieszka Kapalka, Kai Udert

Recent studies have shown that electrolysis can be an efficient process for nitrogen removal from urine. These studies have been conducted with urea solutions or fresh urine, but urine collected in NoMix toilets and urinals has a substantially different co ...

Effects of chlorine residue in atomic layer deposition hafnium oxide: A density-functional-theory study

Wei Chen, Min Xu

Hafnium tetrachloride is one of the most commonly used precursors for atomic layer deposition of HfO2. According to the experimental result, chlorine residue is almost unavoidably incorporated during the deposition process. We performed first-principles ca ...
