Scalable and Integrated Photocatalytic Reactor Systems for Solar‐to‐Fuel Production: Photoredox and Photoreforming Processes

Advanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 28, July 22, 2025.
Solar fuels and other value‐added chemicals derived from light‐driven reactions are highly desirable. Although advanced photoactive materials have been reported, demonstrations of their feasibility in large‐scale production are needed. Hence, strategies and recent efforts in scaling up photocatalytic reactors and integrating them into comprehensive ...

Quantum Chemical Investigation of Polychlorinated Dibenzodioxins, Dibenzofurans and Biphenyls [PDF]

, 2020
All possible polychlorinated aromatic compounds in the classes of dibenzodioxins (PCDDs), dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and biphenyls (PCBs) were studied by quantum chemical methods of HF/6-311++G(d,p), B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) and MP2/cc-pVTZ. Calculated stabilities and structures of these compounds were compared with available data on their abundance and toxicity.
