Chirality enhances oxygen reduction

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2022
Controlled reduction of oxygen is important for developing clean energy technologies, such as fuel cells, and is vital to the existence of aerobic organisms. The process starts with oxygen in a triplet ground state and ends with products that are all in singlet states. Hence, spin constraints in the oxygen reduction must be considered.

Chirality enhances oxygen reduction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Abstract Controlled reduction of oxygen is important for developing clean energy technologies, such as fuel cells, and is vital to the existence of aerobic organisms. The process starts with oxygen in a triplet ground state and ends with products that are all in singlet states. Hence, spin constraints in the oxygen reduction must be considered.

Hierarchical Structure of Gold and Carbon Electrode for Bilirubin Oxidase-Biocathode

open access: yesBiosensors, 2023
Biofuel cells (BFCs) with enzymatic electrocatalysts have attracted significant attention, especially as power sources for wearable and implantable devices; however, the applications of BFCs are limited owing to the limited O2 supply.

A Model of Aerobic and Anaerobic Metabolism of Hydrogen in the Extremophile Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Hydrogen can serve as an electron donor for chemolithotrophic acidophiles, especially in the deep terrestrial subsurface and geothermal ecosystems. Nevertheless, the current knowledge of hydrogen utilization by mesophilic acidophiles is minimal.

Assessing the influence of the carbon oxidation-reduction state on organic pollutant biodegradation in algal-bacterial photobioreactors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The influence of the carbon oxidation-reduction state (CORS) of organic pollutants on their biodegradation in enclosed algal-bacterial photobioreactors was evaluated using a consortium of enriched wild-type methanotrophic bacteria and microalgae. Methane,

Microwave-Modified Polyol Synthesis of a PtCo Electrocatalyst for the Oxygen Reduction Reaction in Acidic Electrolyte

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2021
A microwave-assisted polyol synthesis was used to prepare a carbon-supported PtCo catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The electrocatalyst was evaluated by a rotating disk electrode (RDE) technique in 0.1 M HClO4 solution. Several analytical

Electrochemical reduction of oxygen catalyzed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Pseudomonas aeruginosa has already been shown to catalyze oxidation processes in the anode compartment of a microbial fuel cell. The present study focuses on the reverse capacity of the bacterium, i.e. reduction catalysis. Here we show that P. aeruginosa

Oxygen Hydration Mechanism for the Oxygen Reduction Reaction at Pt and Pd Fuel Cell Catalysts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We report the reaction pathways and barriers for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on platinum, both for gas phase and in solution, based on quantum mechanics calculations (PBE-DFT) on semi-infinite slabs. We find a new mechanism in solution: O_2 → 2O_(
