Clumped isotope fractionation during phosphoric acid digestion of carbonates at 70°C

The application of clumped isotopes (Delta(47)) in carbonate minerals as a sensitive temperature proxy in paleo-environments depends on a well-constrained clumped isotope fractionation for the necessary step of phosphoric acid digestion of the carbonate mi ...

Optical properties of anthocyanins in the gas phase

The gas-phase optical properties of the six most common anthocyanins are studied using time-dependent density-functional theory. Different anthocyanins are classified into three groups, according to the number of low-frequency peaks displayed in the UV-vis ...

Photoelectrochemical Hydrogen Production in Alkaline Solutions Using Cu2O Coated with Earth-Abundant Hydrogen Evolution Catalysts

Michael Graetzel, Xile Hu, Matthew Thomas Mayer, Stanley David Tilley, Laurent Liardet, Carlos Gilberto Morales Guio

The splitting of water into hydrogen and oxygen molecules using sunlight is an attractive method for solar energy storage. Until now, photoelectrochemical hydrogen evolution is mostly studied in acidic solutions, in which the hydrogen evolution is more fac ...

Decamethylruthenocene Hydride and Hydrogen Formation at Liquid|Liquid Interfaces

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Manuel Alejandro Méndez Agudelo, Micheal Diarmaid Scanlon, Thomas James Stockmann, Lucie Josette Renée Rivier

The formation and the dissociation of metal hydrides are key steps within the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) pathway for photochemical water splitting, but also impacts a wide range of other catalytic, industrial, and biochemical reactions. Herein, we d ...

Reaction of Ferrate(VI) with ABTS and Self-Decay of Ferrate(VI): Kinetics and Mechanisms

Urs von Gunten

Reactions of ferrate(VI) during water treatment generate perferryl(V) or ferryl(IV) as primary intermediates. To better understand the fate of perferryl(V) or ferryl(IV) during ferrate(VI) oxidation, this study investigates the kinetics, products, and mech ...

Use of Empty Fruit Bunches from the Oil Palm for bioethanol production: A thorough comparison between dilute acid and dilute alkali pretreatment

Edgard Gnansounou, Simone Chiesa

In the present work, two pretreatment techniques using either dilute acid (H2SO4) or dilute alkali (NaOH) have been compared for producing bioethanol from Empty Fruit Bunches (EFBs) from oil palm tree, a relevant feedstock for tropical countries. Treatment ...
