1. Electrochemical Investigations of Water and Hypochlorite Reduction on a-and y-FeOOH
Abstract : The cathodes in the electrochemical cells used for production of sodium chlorate process are made from mild steel. Due to the harsh environment in the chlorate cell, with oxidative species such as chlorate and hypochlorous acid, the cathodes corrodes. This corrosion might be beneficial, leading to surface enlargement and lower potential. READ MORE

2. Energy efficiency in the sodium chlorate process: From electrocatalysis to pilot plant investigations
Abstract : 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. READ MORE

3. In-situ activated hydrogen evolution from pH-neutral electrolytes
Abstract : The goal of this work was to better understand how molybdate and trivalent cations can be used as additives to pH neutral electrolytes to activate the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER). Special emphasis was laid on the chlorate process and therefore also to some of the other effects that the additives may have in that particular process. READ MORE

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

5. Risks and benefits of drinking water treatment : focusing on child health and prenatal development
Abstract : Drinking water is our most important food item and its access is indispensable for a wellfunctioning society. Recent Swedish water-borne outbreaks have demonstrated a system vulnerability and a clear need for improved knowledge on how variations in drinking water quality affects our health. READ MORE
