An excess of elemental iodine in N,N-dimethylacetamide enables effective 3/iodanylium-de-hydronation of terminal alkenes with 3-iodopropene derivatives and hydrogen iodide formation within minutes at room temperature. The optimal molar ratio of iodine to substrate was decreased to 1 : 1 when hydrogen iodide formed was oxidized on a platinum anode. The electrolytic oxidation recovers iodine as a...

Finding a safe and efficient carrier of hydrogen is a major challenge. Recently, hydrogenated organic compounds have been studied as hydrogen storage materials because of their ability to stably and reversibly store hydrogen by forming chemical bonds; however, these compounds often suffer from safety issues and are usually hydrogenated with hydrogen at high pressure and/or temperature. Here we ...

Depending on power supply and treatment retention time, the electrolytic treatment can produce an effluent with a quality equivalent to or better than the control treatment of alum. A recent study of electrolytic treatment of laundry waste for water reuse has shown that because of the high concentration of total solids, the reuse of this effluent might be objectionable due to the extra consumpt...

The early stages of gas evolution during electrolytic hydrogen production on Au electrodes are characterized by in situ transmission electron microscopy. The results demonstrate that reaction product molecules initially dissolve into solution and then nucleate near, but not on, the electrodes. The gas subsequently wets the electrodes and its successive evolution is governed by triple phase boun...

The article characterizes existing unused industrial areas, the so-called brownfields, in terms of their usability for hydrogen production, with a focus on electrolytic production. paper also estimates future brownfield areas to ensure

With the increasing importance of “ heavy water” as a moderator in nuclear reactors there arises a pressing need for a more efficient method of separating hydrogen isotopes. In a report by 0. N. Salmon to the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (AEC Research and Development Report KAPL 1272) a process is described which aims to improve the method of separation by the electrolysis of water. This proce...
