Microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) is a gripping bio-electrochemical device producing H2 gas from renewable biomass while at the same time treat wastewater.  Through extensive global research efforts in the latest decade, the performance of MECs, including energy efficiency, hydrogen production rate (HPR), and hydrogen recovery have achieved significant breakthroughs. However, employi...

Mesoporous tungsten carbides displayed an excellent solar conversion efficiency (7.01%) as a counter electrode for dye sensitized solar cells under 100 mW cm(-2), AM 1.5G illumination, which corresponded to ca. 85% of the efficiency of the conventional platinum electrode.

Redox reaction [Fe(CN)6] 3– / [Fe(CN)6] 4– has been studied with a Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT)-coated Glassy Carbon Electrode (GCE), SWCNT-coated Gold Electrode (GE) and a lab-made SWCNT-TPLF (SWCNT-Thin-Paper-Like-Film) Electrode. The SWCNT-modified electrode has shown a well-defined redox peak compared to bare electrodes. Cyclic voltammetry was used in 50.0 × 10–3 M aqueous solution...

a fiber coating from polyaniline (pani) was electrochemically prepared and employed for solid phase micreoextraction (spme). the pani film was directly electrodeposited on the platinum wire surface using cyclic voltametry (cv) technique. the same method was applied for the preparation of spme fiber coated by polyaniline multiwalled carbon nanotubes (pani/mwcnts) composite. the concentration of ...

A fiber coating from polyaniline (PANI) was electrochemically prepared and employed for Solid phase micreoextraction (SPME). The PANI film was directly electrodeposited on the platinum wire surface using cyclic voltametry (CV) technique. The same method was applied for the preparation of SPME fiber coated by polyaniline multiwalled carbon nanotubes (PANI/MWCNTs) composite. The concentration of ...

One of the most important parts of a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is the membrane electrode assembly (MEA). However, the delamination between the membrane and electrode layers, induced by uneven distribution of internal stress and stress concentration due to the inconsistent water and thermal expansion properties, greatly reduces the PEMFC durability. Based on the data from th...

Two natural clays (kaolinite and montmorillonite) were deposited onto a platinum electrode surface using two deposition techniques and under different experimental variables. For both clays, the percentages of surface coverage (%y) were optimized in the 75 96% range. A greater surface coverage was observed at higher temperatures for both clays, which confirms the endothermic nature of the depos...

The separation and subsequent isolation of the metastatic human cervical carcinoma cell line (HeLa cells) from normal human peripheral blood cells has been achieved by exploiting their differential dielectric properties. The isolation process is carried out on a silicon chip containing a five-by-five array of microlocations. These microlocations contain underlying circular platinum electrodes w...

In this work, we have designed and developed a novel and cost effective virtual electrochemical analyzer for the measurement of NO in exhaled breath and from hydrogen peroxide stimulated endothelial cells using home-made potentiostat. Here, data acquisition system (NI MyDAQ) was used to acquire the data from the electrochemical oxidation of NO mediated by copper, zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu,Z...
