The recent development of flow electrochemical reactors has been remarkable, but efforts are still required to reduce the amount supporting electrolyte used in electrosynthesis. To address this problem, herein an advanced process combining and bipolar electrochemistry is proposed. developed system was successfully employed for anodic fluorination coupling organic compounds using low concentrati...

The application of ultrasound with electrochemistry in organic chemistry (known as sonoelectrochemistry) accelerates the activation process chemical reactions. This hybrid technology enhances electrical efficiency and modifies increases product yield. Moreover, it facilitates mass transfer phenomena processes cleaning, degassing, electrode surfaces; maintains higher current densities for effici...

Electroreduction of oxoanions affords hydroxide equivalents that induce selective deposition of crystalline metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) on conductive surfaces. The method is illustrated by cathodic electrodeposition of Zn(4)O(BDC)(3) (MOF-5; BDC = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate), which is deposited at room temperature in only 15 min under cathodic potential. Although many crystalline phases are k...

The production of biofuels and biochemicals is highly electron intensive. To divert fermentative and respiratory pathways to the product of interest, additional electrons (i.e. reducing power) are often needed. Meanwhile, the past decade has seen the breakthrough of sustainable electricity sources such as solar and wind. Microbial electrosynthesis (MES) is at the nexus of both, as it uses elect...

A polarographic approach was developed for studying the biochemical physiology and biotechnological utility of the proteolytic anaerobe Clostridium sporogenes. Methyl viologen-mediated reductions were assessed in both analytical and preparative modes, using a dropping mercury electrode and a mercury pool electrode, respectively. Using these assays, we observed an active MV-linked NAD(P) reducta...

UNLABELLED Direct, mediator-free transfer of electrons between a microbial cell and a solid phase in its surrounding environment has been suggested to be a widespread and ecologically significant process. The high rates of microbial electron uptake observed during microbially influenced corrosion of iron [Fe(0)] and during microbial electrosynthesis have been considered support for a direct ele...
