چکیده

Hydrogen, a clean energy carrier with high energy capacity, is a very promising candidate as a primary energy source for the future. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) hydrogen production from renewable biomass derivatives and water is one of the most promising approaches to producing green chemical fuel. Compared to water splitting, hydrogen production from renewable biomass derivatives and water through a PEC process is more efficient from the viewpoint of thermodynamics. Additionally, the carbon dioxide formed can be re-transformed into carbohydrates via photosynthesis in plants. In this review, we focus on the development of photoanodes and systems for PEC hydrogen production from water and renewable biomass derivatives, such as methanol, ethanol, glycerol and sugars. We also discuss the future challenges and opportunities for the design of the state-of-the-art photoanodes and PEC systems for hydrogen production from biomass derivatives and water.

بررسی میزان حذف کادمیوم از آب به وسیله توده باکتریایی در فیلتر سیلیسی بیولوژیکی

Background and purpose: Studies show that surface or subsurface water in some areas near to the pollutant sources, to an extent higher than the permisible potable limit are contaminated with cadmium. There are different reports about biological absorption of cadmium in high concentrations (present in industrial effluents) by bacterial biomass, but there is less report about removing of low co...

Relaxation of arterial smooth muscle by water-soluble derivatives of coenzyme Q (ubiquinone).

Treatment of coenzyme Q with ozone, permanganate, and ferrous sulfate in presence of ascorbate or hydrogen peroxide yielded water-soluble degradation products, possibly having truncated side-chain and modified ring.These derivatives, but not the intact lipid-quinone, showed relaxation of phenylephrine-contracted rat arterial rings. Representative samples of these also decreased blood pressure w...

Production of Hydrogen and Synthesis gas via Cu-Ni/Al2O3 catalyzed gasification of bagasse in supercritical water media

Bagasse as a real biomass was converted to hydrogen rich gas via catalytic supercritical water gasification process. To find the effect of Cu on selectivity of products, Cu promoted Ni-γAl2O3 catalysts were prepared with 1 to 20wt% Ni and 0.5 to 10wt% Cu loadings via impregnation method. Catalysts were characterized by ICP, BET, XRD, H2 chemisorption and TEM technique as well CHNS analysis was ...
