Hydrogen generation by photoreforming of methanol is being one the most intensely investigated photochemical transformations in pursuing a sustainable, zero waste circular economy. This transformation usually produces significant amount gaseous carbon form CO2 and CO that disqualifies many active photocatalysts as fully sustainable. Here, we demonstrate atomically dispersed Cu on TiO2 composite nanoparticles synthesized wet impregnation method are highly selective hydrogen production...
A vision of hydrogen based economy and clean, sustainable, fossil fuels-free world inspires the scientific community to put much effort into development visible-light-driven photochemistry efficient solar energy harvesting. The unique features plasmonic nanomaterials such as capability significant electric field amplification, an extreme local heating, generation high charge carriers broad tunability optical properties coupled catalytically active surfaces provide exciting opportunity for...
This study addresses the influence of pore size variation on effective thermal conductivity open-cell foam structures. Numerical design procedure which renders it possible to control chosen structural parameters has been developed based characterization commercially available copper foams. Open-porous materials with various distribution were numerically designed using Laguerre–Voronoi Tessellations procedure. Heat transfer through an isolated structure was simulated finite element method....
Photocatalytic selective oxidation of alcohols over titania supported with bimetallic nanoparticles represents an energy efficient and sustainable route for the synthesis esters. Specifically, PdAu/TiO2 system was found to be highly active toward photocatalytic production methyl formate (MF) from gas-phase methanol. In current paper, we applied electronic structure density functional theory method understand mechanistic aspects corroborate our recent experimental measurements methanol MF...
Using the state-of-the-art SP-DFT method we investigate ground and excited state properties of Ti-related complexes in diamond demonstrate that experimentally observed TiV–N<sup>0</sup>(OK1) center may be a good candidate for solid single color emitters.
Using density functional theory (DFT), the interaction of crucial molecules involved in selective partial oxidation methanol to methyl formate (MF) with monometallic Au and Pd bimetallic Au/Pd Pd/Au core@shell catalysts is systematically investigated. The structures modeled this study consist Au(111) Pd(111) cores covered by a monolayer Au, respectively. Our results indicate that adsorption strength examined as function catalytic surface decreases order Au/Pd(111) > Pd/Au(111) correlates...
Abstract Nowadays, the pursuit of a circular economy and sustainability pushes world's efforts toward less fossil fuel‐dependent energy production strategies. The sense sustainability, thus, means searching for effective approaches involving ecological fuels, processes with little environmental concern. Approaches utilization such renewable resources like solar as driving force, biomass‐derived compounds feedstocks simultaneous hydrogen most promising carrier, are currently gaining their...
This paper demonstrates the benefits of using a metallic foam support within molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) cathodes. A state-of-the-art fabrication process based on tape casting has been developed to produce microporous electrodes with nickel scaffold. Surfactant was added control depth which slurry infiltrated foam. New cathodes were used as an alternative traditional cathode in single assembly and tested for power density. Mechanical properties compared current state-of-the-art. The...
The O-terminated octopolar NiO(111) is predicted to facilitate cathodic transformation of CO<sub>2</sub> CO<sub>3</sub><sup>2−</sup> through sequential Mars-van Krevelen and Eley-Rideal mechanisms.
In the present paper, we demonstrate how modifications of microstructure and chemical composition can influence electrochemical behavior cathodes for molten carbonate fuel cells (MCFCs). Based on our experience, designed new MCFC cathode microstructures combining layers made porous silver, nickel oxide or foam to overcome common issues with internal resistance cell. The standard NiO manufactured were extensively investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) porosity measurements....
