Microbial Electrosynthesis electrosynthesis holds the promise of sustainable chemical production. In article number 2203480, Guillermo C. Bazan and co-workers show that 3D living biocomposites integrating electroactive bacteria with an n-type conjugated polyelectrolyte allow efficient long-range electron transfer from electrode to cells, thereby enabling microbial electrosynthesis. The one-step...

Since the pioneering work of Kolbe, electrochemistry and electrosynthetic methods have been a part of the repertoire of the organic synthesis toolbox [1,2]. In general, only electrons are employed as reagents or the reagents are electrochemically regenerated. Consequently, waste can be avoided, and limited resources can be used in a careful and economic manner. Because alternative reaction path...

12 Microbial electrosynthesis (MES) and anaerobic fermentation (AF) are two biological processes 13 capable of reducing CO2, CO and water into acetic acid, an essential industrial reagent. In this 14 study, we evaluated investment and production costs of acetic acid via MES and AF, and compared 15 them to industrial chemical processes: methanol carbonylation and ethane direct oxidation. 16

Electrolysis in microemulsions is a promising approach for environmentally friendly chemical synthetic methods of the future. Employing microemulsions instead of organic solvents for electrosynthesis has the advantages of lower toxicity and cost, high dissolving power for reactants and mediators of unlike solubility, enhancement of reaction rates by controlling the reduction potentials of media...

Electrosynthesis process has been used for preparation of zinc sulfide nanoparticles. Zinc sulfide nanoparticles in different size and shapes were electrodeposited by electrolysis of zinc plate as anode in sodium sulfide solution. Effects of several reaction variables, such as electrolysis voltage, sulfide ion concentration as reactant, stirring rate of electrolyte solution and temperature on p...

Synthesis of imidazolium carboxylate compounds was efficiently achieved by electrochemical reduction of imidazolium precursors under very mild conditions.

This article presents the results of a scientific study to improve efficiency ozone electrosynthesis. The issues applying another voltage as periodic pulse are considered. analysis process electrosynthesis when fed with high-voltage pulses is given, result which stability discharges in discharge gap was achieved. Transient processes pause between studies energy indicators pulsed and sinusoidal ...
