The stability of Nd-nickelate, considered as an alternative solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) cathode material, was evaluated in this work on its tolerance towards contaminants. Symmetrical cells with Nd1.95NiO4+δ (NNO) electrodes on gadolinia-doped ceria elect ...
This thesis focuses on the degradation pathways occurring in composite solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) cathodes based on lanthanum-strontium manganite (LSM), combining modeling at the electrode level with experimental data. LSM composite electrodes are one of ...
This work aimed to set new guidelines for the quantification of Cr accumulation in solid oxide fuel cell cathodes after operation, and enabled to pinpoint a diffusion-controlled tolerance to Cr-poisoning for increased cathode thickness; the additional cath ...
LiMnPO4 nanoparticles synthesized by the polyol method were examined as a cathode material for advanced Li-ion batteries. The structure, surface morphology, and performance were characterized by X-ray diffraction, high resolution scanning electron microsco ...
Using petrol as a main source of energy, during the 20th century, has caused considerable amounts of damage among which are atmospheric pollution and global warming. At the same time, many geologists and economists expect that the discovery rate of new pet ...
The disintegration of the carbon anodes during the electrolysis of alumina produces dust particles contaminating the electrolytic bath. This phenomenon, called dusting, is one of the most deleterious Al electrolysis failures, as it leads to a significant d ...
(La0.6Sr0.4)0.95FeO3-δ/ Sm0.2Ce0.8O2 (70:30 w/w) and (La0.6Sr0.4)0.995Co0.2Fe 0.8O3-δ/Gd0.1Ce0.9O 2 (50:50 w/w) cathodes screen printed on anode-supported cells were tested for 500 h under different conditions by using a Taguchi matrix that combined cathod ...
A method to create an array of sub-5 nm nanogaps with self-aligned holes in a protective polymer overlayer is presented. The parallel formation of the nanogaps, intended for electrical sensing of biomolecules in an aqueous environment, is achieved by elect ...
Sulfur poisoning in a strontium doped lanthanum cobaltite (LSC) cathode current collection layer was revealed in a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) tested in repeat-element and stack configuration. Sources of sulfur contamination, other than trace SOx in air, ...
Secondary fly ash, resulting from thermal treatment processes, leads to a highly concd. chloride soln. with Cu, Pb, Cd and Zn as main heavy metals when dissolved in water. The selective electrodeposition of these heavy metals was studied. The goal was to r ...
