A few seconds flash photopyrolysis is used as efficient screening tool for the investigation of selected biomass in producing syngas, hydrogen and biochar. This innovative approach allowed rapid pyrolysis of the biomass, which was followed by a precise gas ...
For the sustainable development of the renewable hydrogen sector, alkaline electrolysis appears to be a technology of choice. Nevertheless, despite its long history that showed its reliability in the industrial field and despite the traditional belief from ...
Large-scale, sustainable, low-cost production of hydrogen can reduce the negative effects of climate change by decarbonising energy infrastructure. Low-carbon hydrogen can be synthesised via water electrolysis. Today, however, this only constitutes a minor ...
The present work reports a simple approach to manufacture electrocatalytically active gas diffusion electrodes (GDEs) in two steps: (i) inkjet printing and (ii) flash light irradiation from a xenon flash lamp, a process called Print-light-synthesis (PLS). ...
Optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) is achieved using adsorbed gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with an average diameter of 16 nm at the aqueous solution–air interface in reflection. A detailed analysis of the depth profile of the SHG intensity detected sho ...
The increasing global demand for sustainable energy solutions necessitates innovative approaches to hydrogen production. This study investigates the use of laser pyrolysis as a rapid and efficient method for converting biomass into hydrogen-rich gas, bioch ...
Over the last decades, the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES) attracted considerable attention of the scientific community due to their vast applications, such as extraction, catalysis, partition studies and sensing. The aim of ...
This article aims to present the redox aspects of lithium-ion batteries both from a thermodynamic and from a conductivity viewpoint. We first recall the basic definitions of the electrochemical potential of the electron, and of the Fermi level for a redox ...
Waste tires are a major environmental concern due to their non-degradable nature and the large area occupied by them in landfills worldwide. Several recycling processes have been applied to minimize the high amount of waste tire disposal; in particular, py ...
