The properties of pristine and boron-doped biphenylene nanotubes (BPNT BBPNT, respectively) as anode materials for sodium storage are studied using density functional theory (DFT). To this end, the electronic properties, adsorption energy, diffusion energy barrier, open-circuit voltage (OCV), theoretical capacity evaluated. states calculations indicate that BPNT BBPNT with zero band gap have a ...

5-aminosalicylic acid (5-asa) is currently prepared by electrochemical reduction of 5-nitrosalicylic acid (5-nsa) in acidic media. in this work, electrolytic reduction of 5-nsa in alkaline media is presented. reactionconditions and parameters such as anode and cathode electrodes, electrolyte type, reaction time, temperature,current, and the ph for isolation of product are investigated. the yiel...

Serving as conductive matrix and stress buffer, the carbon matrix plays a pivotal role in enabling red phosphorus to be a promising anode material for high capacity lithium ion batteries and sodium ion batteries. In this paper, nitrogen-doping is proved to effective enhance the interface interaction between carbon and red phosphorus. In detail, the adsorption energy between phosphorus atoms and...

SODIUM CHLORATE IS MAINLY USED for production of chlorine dioxide (a pulp bleaching agent). Sodium chlorate is produced by an electrochemical process where chloride ions (from sodium chloride dissolved in water) are oxidized to chlorine on the anodes and hydrogen is evolved on the cathodes. The anode of this process consists of a metal plate coated with a catalytically active metal oxide film. ...

A large variety of new energy-generating technologies are being developed in an effort to reduce global dependence on fossil fuels, and to reduce the carbon footprint of energy generation. The term 'biological photovoltaic system' encompasses a broad range of technologies which all employ biological material that can harness light energy to split water, and then transfer the resulting electrons...

In light of the impeding depletion of fossil fuels and necessity to lower carbon dioxide emissions, economically viable high-performance batteries are urgently needed for numerous applications ranging from electric cars to stationary large-scale electricity storage. Due to its low raw material cost, non-toxicity and potentially high charge-storage capacity pyrite (FeS2) is a highly promising ma...
