  1. 1. Nanoscaled Structures in Ruthenium Dioxide Coatings

    Författare :Christine Malmgren; Håkan Olin; Joakim Bäckström; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :Bleaching chemicals; sodium chlorate; ruthenium dioxide; electrodes; crystallites; nanowires; microscopy; diffraction; electrocatalytic area; reduced energy consumption; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : An essential ingredient in the generation of environmentally compatible pulp bleaching chemicals is sodium chlorate. Chlorate is produced in electrochemical cells, where the electrodes are the key components. In Sweden the so-called DSA !R electrodes with catalytic coatings have been produced for more than 35 years. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Electron Transfer in Ruthenium-Manganese Complexes for Artificial Photosynthesis : Studies in Solution and on Electrode Surfaces

    Författare :Malin L. A. Abrahamsson; Gerald J. Meyer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Artificial photosynthesis; electron transfer; energy transfer; ruthenium; manganese; titanium dioxide; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; Physical Chemistry; fysikalisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : In today’s society there is an increasing need for energy, an increase which for the most part is supplied by the use of fossil fuels. Fossil fuel resources are limited and their use has harmful effects on the environment, therefore the development of technologies that produce clean energy sources is very appealing. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Theoretical and Experimental Studies of Electrode and Electrolyte Processes in Industrial Electrosynthesis

    Sammanfattning : Heterogeneous electrocatalysis is the usage of solid materials to decrease the amount of energy needed to produce chemicals using electricity. It is of core importance for modern life, as it enables production of chemicals, such as chlorine gas and sodium chlorate, needed for e.g. materials and pharmaceuticals production. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Quantum Chemical Modeling of Dye-Sensitized Titanium Dioxide : Ruthenium Polypyridyl and Perylene Dyes, TiO2 Nanoparticles, and Their Interfaces

    Författare :Maria J. Lundqvist; Sten Lunell; Petter Persson; Lars Ojamäe; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum chemistry; density functional theory; chromophore; nanocrystal; interface; photoexcitation; triplet state; surface electron transfer; electronic coupling strength; Kvantkemi; Quantum chemistry; Kvantkemi;

    Sammanfattning : Quantum chemical calculations have been used to model dye-sensitized nanostructured titanium dioxide systems that can be used in solar cells for solar energy to electricity conversion. Structural, electronic and spectral properties of isolated dyes and both bare and dye-sensitized TiO2 have been calculated with density functional theory, providing detailed information about both the separate parts and the dye-TiO2 interface.

  5. 5. RuO4 interaction with surfaces in the containment of nuclear power plant

    Författare :Ivan Kajan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; containment; ruthenium; deposition; severe accident; re-vaporization;

    Sammanfattning : During a severe accident different fission products will be released from the nuclear fuel and some of them may eventually reach the containment building. Ruthenium is considered to be an important fission product due to the possible formation of volatile oxides. LÄS MER
