Bimetallic Synergy in Cocatalyst Alloy Nanoparticles for Efficient Photocatalytic Hydrogen Production

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
A bimetallic NiAg alloy is assembled on the surface of Zn3In2S6 to construct a NiAg‐Zn3In2S6 composite using a chemical reduction method. By adjusting the different alloy ratios, the hydrogen evolution activity of the optimum Ni0.25Ag0.75‐Zn3In2S6 photocatalyst achieves 21.32 mmol·g−1·h−1. ABSTRACT A bimetallic NiAg alloy is assembled on the surface of

Spatial Variations in Methane Content and Their Main Controlling Factors of the Deep‐Buried Coalbed in the Nalinhe–Hengshan Area, Ordos Basin

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Ash yield is the primary geological factor controlling the spatial variations in the total gas content of the deep‐buried coalbed methane in the Nalinhe‐Hengshan area, Ordos Basin. However, porosity dominates the differential enrichment of the free gas content of the deep‐buried coalbed methane in the Nalinhe‐Hengshan area, Ordos Basin.

Community perceptions and mental burden among (former) residents at Europe’s largest lignite mine in Western Germany: a cross-sectional study

Scientific Reports
During the many years that coal has been used for energy production, most studies have focused on the global environmental impacts such as climate change or, when addressing health, rather on conditions of open pit coal miners.
