Role of Water Structure in Alkaline Water Electrolysis
A universal activity descriptor for catalytic alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) was unavailable, though metal-hydrogen binding energy can be considered as a good such descriptor in acidic medium. Herein, with the help of experimental and first principles density functional theory (DFT) based studies, we have shown that structural changes in ...

A high-performance capillary-fed electrolysis cell promises more cost-competitive renewable hydrogen
Renewable, or green, hydrogen will play a critical role in the decarbonisation of hard-to-abate sectors and will therefore be important in limiting global warming. However, renewable hydrogen is not cost-competitive with fossil fuels, due to the moderate

Electricity-assisted production of caproic acid from grass [PDF]
Background: Medium chain carboxylic acids, such as caproic acid, are conventionally produced from food materials. Caproic acid can be produced through fermentation by the reverse beta-oxidation of lactic acid, generated from low value lignocellulosic ...

Hydrogen Evolution on Hydrophobic Aligned Carbon Nanotube Arrays [PDF]
We investigate for the first time hydrophobic carbon nanotube-based electrochemical cells as an alternative solution to hydrogen sorting. We show that the electrically conducting surface of the nanotube arrays can be used as a cathode for hydrogen ...

Nanotechnology makes biomass electrolysis more energy efficient than water electrolysis [PDF]
The energetic convenience of electrolytic water splitting is limited by thermodynamics. Consequently, significant levels of hydrogen production can only be obtained with an electrical energy consumption exceeding 45 kWh kg(-1)H2. Electrochemical reforming allows the overcoming of such thermodynamic limitations by replacing oxygen evolution with the ...

Effect of Intermittent Electrolysis on Electrolytic Removal of an Organic Pollutant
In an electrolytic water treatment, electrode reactions for pollutant removal can be easily controlled by changing an electrode potential. Thereby, it has a potential to realize an efficient water treatment process.
