Moisture Harvesting by the Structure Regulation of Hygroscopic Hydrogel for Energy and Water Sustainability

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Hygroscopic hydrogels are capable of utilizing the moisture from air, which can transfer the gaseous water to liquid by a surface phase transition. Taking advantage of this water, sustainable water production, thermal management, and electricity generation can be realized.

The correlation between urban sprawl and the local economy in Poland

open access: yesUrbani Izziv, 2016
The literature has assessed urban sprawl as a negative phenomenon because of the costs it generates. However, various studies have examined the impact of urban sprawl based on only one parameter, such as public expenditures or fuel consumption, instead ...

"Medium-tech" industries may be of greater importance to a local economy than "High-tech" firms: New methods for measuring the knowledge base of an economic system [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Hypotheses, 71(3) (2008) 330-334, 2009
In this paper we offer a way to measure the knowledge base of an economy in terms of probabilistic entropy. This measure, we hypothesize, is an indication of the extent to which a system, including the economic system, self-organizes. In a self-organizing system, interactions between dimensions or subsystems will unintentionally give rise to ...

Understanding the Metal‐Center Mediated Adsorption and Redox Mechanisms in a FeMn(NbTa)2O6 Columbite Material for Anion Exchange Membrane Water Electrolyzers

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
FeMn(NbTa)2O6‐columbite is a sustainable and high‐performance bifunctional electrocatalyst for anion exchange membrane water electrolyzers, comparable to benchmark catalysts. In situ XAS and DFT analysis show Fe/Mn sites exhibit higher OER activity due to reduced overpotentials and favorable O→OOH energetics. The Nb/Ta sites facilitate charge transfer,

Efficient Confinement of Solid Capacity Booster Powder as Monolithic Structures for High Performance Redox Mediated Flow Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Solid electroactive materials are confined in a single porous block (so‐called monolith) that occupies the entire external reservoirs of Redox‐Mediated Flow Batteries. The monolith configuration possesses intrinsic advantages such as improved electrolyte flow distribution, enhanced kinetics, and utilization rates, as well as geometry‐tuneable pressure ...
