The ever-increasing availability of transcriptomic and metabolomic data can be used to deeply analyze and make ever-expanding predictions about biological processes, as changes in the reaction fluxes through genome-wide pathways can now be tracked. Current ...
Phase transitions in AuCu alloy are investigated using in situ temperature XRD and mechanical spectroscopy. The measurements are carried out from room temperature up to 973 K starting from the ordered phase AuCuI. Using a temperature ramp rate of 1 K/min, ...
Understanding how crystalline materials are assembled is important for the rational design of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Controlling their formation can allow researchers to streamline the synthesis of new materials as well as control their propertie ...
Direct methanation of biogas converts the CO2 in raw-biogas to methane, enabling higher methane yield and an elelctricity storage option via Power-to-Gas. As the thermodynamic equilibrium limits the methane yield, unreacted hydrogen has to be removed and r ...
For the investigation of complex reaction systems, it has been proposed to decouple the various rate processes using a linear time-invariant transformation that is constructed from knowledge of stoichiometry, reaction enthalpies, inlet compositions and tem ...
A simple predictive molecular thermodynamic model for bulk phases and interfaces is presented. The model combines features of the quantitative structure-property relationships (QSPR) approach, the equation-of-state approach, and quantum-chemical calculatio ...
Geothermometrical characterisation of low-temperature, carbonate-evaporitic geothermal systems is usually hampered by the lack of appropriate mineral equilibria to successfully use most of the classical geothermometers and/or by the thermodynamic uncertain ...
Ammonium is one of the dominant inorganic water-soluble ions in fine particulate matter (PM2.5). In this study, source apportionment and thermodynamic equilibrium models were used to analyze the relationship between pH and the partitioning of ammonium (eps ...
A method based on molecular dynamics simulations which employ two distinct levels of theory is proposed and tested for the prediction of Gibbs free energies of solvation for non-ionic solutes in water. The method consists of two additive contributions: (i) ...
Photoelectrochemical water splitting is a promising source of clean, renewable fuel in the form of hydrogen. Despite extensive research endeavors, the widespread adoption of this technology is impeded due to suboptimal catalysts for the oxygen evolution re ...
