Nanostructured CeO<sub>2</sub>/BDD electrodes produce formic acid with good faradaic efficiency at very low overpotential (>40% <italic>η</italic> ≈ 40 mV).
Ultrafast high-temperature sintering (UHS) is a recently proposed technique able to synthesize and sinter dense materials within seconds. Although UHS has already proved its effectivity with large set of materials, spanning from refractory ceramics complex metal alloys, any application thermoelectric today still lacking. Mg2Si well-established material. It based on wide available non-critical raw it non-toxic, lightweight expresses best performances in the intermediate temperature range (up...
The development of highly conductive structured catalysts with enhanced mass- and heat-transfer features is required for the intensification strongly exothermic catalytic hydrogenation CO2 in which large temperature gradients should be avoided to prevent catalyst deactivation control selectivity. Therefore, this work we set out investigate preparation novel obtained from a commercial open cell Ni foam high pore density (75 ppi) onto CeO2 layer was deposited via electroprecipitation, and,...
Some metals belonging to groups IV and V show a high permeability hydrogen have been studied as possible alternatives palladium in membranes for purification/separation order increase their sustainability decrease costs. However, date, very few alloys among those investigated, no membrane studies based on 4-5 element with low or zero Pd content quasi-amorphous structure reported so far. In this work, new ZrVTi- ZrVTiPd were tested the first time application. The unprecedented deposition of...
Abstract With the aim of investigating microwave influence on electrolyte material properties, La 0.80 Sr 0.20 Ga 0.83 Mg 0.17 O 2.815 was prepared by both a conventional and microwave‐assisted sol–gel Pechini method. respect to method (hereafter SGP), assisted process MWA‐SGP) guaranteed faster procedure, reducing time needed remove excess solvents complete polyesterification reaction from some days few hours. In fact, when MWA‐SGP used, powders having higher phase purity were obtained. The...
Abstract Purpose The study aimed to identify the environmental hotspots of lab-scale preparation high purity porous Al 2 O 3 pellets with suitable feature work properly as metal layer-based deposition substrates for hydrogen separation membranes. intention was providing hints that may help designing upscaled systems, fundamental development a possible future industrial production membranes technology. Methods goal this achieved assessing and analyzing impacts pellet at lab scale. Primary...
Nowadays, a big challenge in the thermoelectric field is identification of efficient materials but inexpensive, easy to synthesize, and comprised Earth-abundant elements. On this basis, tetrahedrite mineral family (Cu(12−x)Tr(x)Sb₄S₁₃ where Tr = Cu, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn) seems be an attractive p-Type Pb-free material, showing relatively high conversion efficiency. In work, solvothermal synthesis method was developed for undoped Cu₁₂Sb₄S₁₃ introduction Zn Ni as substituents copper also tested....
Galvanic displacement reactions between a solid oxide and dissolved metal cation are interesting processes for the preparation of nanoparticles or electrocatalytic layers consisting secondary mixed oxides. Their mechanism is not yet fully clarified. The composition oxides their growth rate depend on many physical chemical variables. In present study, we have focused effects concentration ions released from sacrificial to solution, when they intentionally added reaction media. We studied PbO2...
