2. 1. Critical potential and oxygen evolution of the chlorate anode

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

   Abstract : 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. READ MORE

4. 2. Engineering inorganic nanostructured composites for boosting H2 and O2 evolution reactions

   Author : Getachew Solomon; Isabella Concina; Alberto Vomiero; Sixto Gimenez; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hydrogen evolution HER ; Oxygen evolution reaction OER ; Oxygen reduction reaction ORR ; Water splitting; Electrocatalyst; Atomic layer deposition; Core-shell structure; Experimentell fysik; Experimental Physics;

   Abstract : Hydrogen is considered a promising energy source with zero emission of CO2; it can provide higher energy density compared to other sources of energy. The amount at which H2 is produced, and the method of production need further improvement for the advancement of hydrogen energy technologies. READ MORE

5. 3. The evolution of ribonucleotide reductases

   Author : Daniel Lundin; Anthony Poole; Britt-Marie Sjöberg; Christos Ouzounis; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Evolution; ribonucleotide reductase; horizontal gene transfer; phylogeny; protein classification; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology; molekylärbiologi;

   Abstract : Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) catalyses the transformation of RNA building blocks, ribonucleotides, to DNA building blocks, deoxyribonucleotides. This is the only extant reaction pathway for de novo synthesis of DNA building blocks and the enzyme is thus necessary for life. RNR is found in all but a few organisms. READ MORE

6. 4. Plasma spray coatings as catalysts for water splitting : exploring novel materials and strategies

   Author : Xiuyu Wu; Eduardo Gracia-Espino; Juan Carlos Nieves Sanchez; Björn Wickman; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Plasma spray; water splitting; coatings; electrocatalyst; hydrogen evolution reaction; oxygen evolution reaction; Physical Chemistry; fysikalisk kemi;

   Abstract : Today, fossil fuels still play a dominant role in the global energy systems. However, they are depleting quickly and the combustion of them causes many environmental concerns, including global warming, air pollution, ozone layer depletion, and acid rain. READ MORE

7. 5. Influence of the electrolyte on the electrode reactions in the chlorate process

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

   Abstract : 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.
