  1. 1. 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

  2. 2. Multiscale interfacial engineering of heterogeneous electrocatalysts : From structural design to mechanistic study

    Författare :Shiqi Zhou; Jiayin Yuan; Martin Oschatz; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; heterogeneous electrocatalysis; electronic structure; coordination environment; single-atom catalysts; strain effect; hydrogen evolution reaction kinetics; charge transfer; electrochemical CO^2 reduction; local enrichment; materialkemi; Materials Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : In a typical heterogeneous electrocatalytic reaction, for the given active sites, the electronic structure plays a determining role in electron transfer between the active sites and reactant molecules, which impacts the reaction efficiency. Besides the electronic properties of the electrocatalysts, the reaction interface at which the charge transfer occurs plays an important role in the reaction kinetics. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Energy efficiency in the sodium chlorate process: From electrocatalysis to pilot plant investigations

    Författare :Kristoffer Hedenstedt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sodium chlorate; corrosion; mild steel; goethite; lepidocrocite; green rust; hypochlorite reduction; hydrogen evolution; in situ electrochemical Raman spectroscopy;

    Sammanfattning : Sodium chlorate is an important industrial chemical produced through an electrochemical manufacturing process. The global production rate is 3.6 million tons annually and consumes approximately 20 TWh of electrical power. The majority of the produced sodium chlorate is used as raw material to make chlorine dioxide for the bleaching of kraft pulp. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Probing Catalytic Reaction Mechanisms of Biomimetic Diiron Complexes through Time-resolved Absorption Spectroscopy

    Författare :Shihuai Wang; Leif Hammarström; Reiner Lomoth; Jillian Dempsey; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Artificial photosynthesis; Biomimetic catalysts; H2 formation; Catalytic intermediates;

    Sammanfattning : Directed design of improved molecular catalysts for hydrogen evolution reactions relies on rational benchmarking based on a detailed understanding about the mechanism of catalysis. Specifically, investigation of multi-electron redox catalysis, with structural characterization of catalytic intermediates, combined with the kinetics of their transformations, can reveal the rate-limiting step of the overall reaction, possible degradation pathways and the function of structural motives.
