  2. 16. Pressurized Fluid Extraction : A Sustainable Technique with Added Values

    Author : Monica Waldebäck; Karin Markides; Åke Bergman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Analytical chemistry; ASE; biomass; green chemistry; household waste; lipid; pesticide; PFE; pressurized fluid extraction; sediment; Analytisk kemi; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : The challenge for the future was defined by the Brundtland Commission (1987) and by the Rio Declaration (1992), in which the fundamental principles for achieving a sustainable development were provided. Sustainable chemistry can be defined as the contribution of chemistry to the implementation of the Rio Declaration. READ MORE

  4. 17. Ionic Liquid Electrolytes for Photoelectrochemical Solar Cells

    Author : Heléne Gamstedt; Lars A. Kloo; Michael Grätzel; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ionic liquid electrolytes; Photoelectrochemical solar cells; Inorganic chemistry; Oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : Potential electrolytes for dye-sensitized photoelectrochemical solar cells have been synthesized and their applicability has been investigated. Different experimental techniques were used in order to characterize the synthesized electrolytes, such as elemental analysis, electrospray ionisation/mass spectrometry, cyclic voltammetry, dynamic viscosity measurements, as well as impedance, Raman and NMR spectroscopy.

  5. 18. Removal of Inorganic Anionic Pollutants from Water using Adsorption Technology

    Author : Eva Kumar; William Hogland; Marcia Marques; Mika Sillanpää; Kenneth M. Persson; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Water treatment; adsorption; inorganic anionic pollutants; granular ferric hydroxide GFH ; nano-alumina; adsorption isotherms; adsorption kinetics; modeling.; Miljövetenskap; Environmental Science; Environmental technology; Miljöteknik;

    Abstract : In the era of urbanization, industrialization and population growth, groundwater and drinking water sources are getting adversely polluted due to the addition of different toxic contaminants including inorganic anionic pollutants. The inorganic anions are of serious concern due to their adverse health effects on humans, even when present at very low concentrations in water. READ MORE

  6. 19. Processing and performance of zeolites for efficient carbon dioxide separation

    Author : Arto Ojuva; Lennart Bergström; Viveka Alfredsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : We have structured zeolites from powders of zeolite 13X and 4A into hierarchically porous monoliths for efficient carbon dioxide capture by tailoring the pore dimensions to facilitate rapid gas uptake and release. Freeze-casting was used for the first time to shape adsorbents into a lamellar structure. READ MORE
