Integrating Cooperative Dual Active Sites Onto a Plasmonic Photocatalyst for Synergistic Promotion of the Reduction and Oxidation Half‐Reactions in Ammonia Synthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An efficient N2 fixation photocatalyst, Ru‐WO3−x/CoOx, is prepared by integrating respective reduction and oxidation sites onto a plasmonic semiconductor. Owing to optimized reaction kinetics and promoted charge carrier separation by the synergistic effect between the two types of active sites, the involved reduction and oxidation half‐reactions are ...

Liquefaction maps in Babol City, Iran through probabilistic and deterministic approaches

open access: yesGeoenvironmental Disasters, 2018
Background During an earthquake, significant damage can result due to instability of the soil in the area affected by internal seismic waves. Liquefaction is known as one of the major causes of ground failure due to the earthquake.

Towards Climate Neutrality by 2050: Role of Aluminum for Short‐ and Long‐Term Energy and Hydrogen Storage

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
The Aluminum energy storage cycle involves the use of renewable energy for Al production and the generation of heat (dry cycle) and heat and H2 (wet cycle) for energy production via Al‐steam combustion. ABSTRACT Reaching climate neutrality by 2050 requires innovative long‐term energy storage (LTES) solutions beyond the current use of fossil fuels ...

The Effect of Failure Criteria on Liquefaction and Pore Pressure Prediction in Non-Plastic Soils

open access: yesGeotechnics
Since the 1960s, cyclic triaxial tests have been utilized to assess the liquefaction susceptibility of cohesionless soils. While standardized procedures exist for conducting cyclic triaxial tests, there remains no universally accepted criterion for ...

A critical review of porous adsorbents for air separation: From fundamental insights to rational adsorbent design

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Air separation via selective adsorption using porous adsorbents offers energy‐efficient alternatives to cryogenic distillation for producing high‐purity O2 and N2. Adsorbent efficacy depends on balancing selectivity, durability, and performance consistency across varying conditions. This comprehensive review critically discusses the design and
