  1. 6. Electrochemical characterisation of porous cathodes in the polymer electrolyte fuel cell

    Författare :Frédéric Jaouen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :polymer electrolyte fuel cell; cathode; mass transport; porous electrode; modelling; agglomerate model; electrochemical impedance spectroscopy; current interrupt; transient techniques; non-noble catalysts;

    Sammanfattning : Polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFC) convert chemicalenergy into electrical energy with higher efficiency thaninternal combustion engines. They are particularly suited fortransportation applications or portable devices owing to theirhigh power density and low operating temperature. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Oxygen formation in the chlorate process and preparation and deactivation of ozone selective anodes

    Författare :Staffan Sandin; Ann M. Cornell; Paul Christensen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATO; EOP; ozone; electrode preparation; elec- trode deactivation; hypochlorite; chlorate; oxygen; chromium VI ; sodium dichromate; electrocatalysis; catalysis; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents experimental studies concerning two differ-ent electrolytic processes. One part deals with the electrochemicalformation of ozone and focuses on the preparation and deactiva-tion of a highly ozone-selective metal oxide anode (NATO - nickeland antimony doped tin oxide).

  4. 8. Influence of the electrolyte on the electrode reactions in the chlorate process

    Författare :Linda Nylén; Göran Lindbergh; Ann Cornell; Mårten Behm; Geoeff H Kelsall; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chlorate; chloride oxidation; critical anode potential; chromate; DSA; hydrogen evolution; iron; mass transport; oxygen evolution; REM; RDE; steel; Electrochemistry; Elektrokemi;

    Sammanfattning : The chlorate process is very energy intensive and a major part of the production costs are for electrical energy. Since the electricity prices are constantly increasing and may also vary periodically, the chlorate plants may be forced to adjust their production rate to the price at each moment in order to minimise their costs.

  5. 9. Fabrication and Corrosion Properties of Nickel Silicides Thin Films

    Författare :Eric Tam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nickel silicides; ion-beam sputter deposition; potentiodynamic polarisation measurements; X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy; corrosion.; thin films;

    Sammanfattning : Surface engineering is a vital issue in engineering materials design. The enhancement of surface properties extends the materials lifetime and improves the materials performance without changing the bulk properties. Thin film deposition is one of the most commonly applied techniques in this field. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Critical potential and oxygen evolution of the chlorate anode

    Författare :Linda Nylén; Göran Lindbergh; Yohannes Kiros; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; chlorate; chloride oxidation; oxygen evolution; critical anode potential; chromate; DSA; mass transport; RDE; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Sammanfattning : In the chlorate process, natural convection arises thanks to the hydrogen evolving cathode. This increases the mass transport of the different species in the chlorate electrolyte. There is a strong connection between mass transport and the kinetics of the electrode reactions. LÄS MER
