Electrolyte engineering via ether solvent fluorination for developing stable non-aqueous lithium metal batteries

Mounir Driss Mensi, Yubo Zhao

Fluorination of solvents, useful for non-aqueous lithium-based batteries, improves the electrochemical stability but decreases the ionic conductivity. Here, the authors report a targeted functionalization of an ether solvent to balance the electrolyte ioni ...

Enhanced Treatment of Municipal Wastewater Effluents by Fe-TAML/H2O2: Efficiency of Micropollutant Abatement

Urs von Gunten

Combining iron with a tetraamido-macrocyclic ligand (Fe-TAML) as a catalyst and with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as the bulk oxidant is a process that has been suggested for the oxidative abatement of micropollutants during water treatment. In this study, the ...

Towards a Composite Benchmark Method for the Aqueous Solvation Free Energies of Organic Compounds

Daniel David Sadowsky

Water is ubiquitous in the biosphere, and the difficulty of rigorously treating the effects of aqueous solvation currently limits the widespread use of computational methods in many areas of environmental chemistry. We propose an approach to benchmark calc ...
