Biostimulation as a sustainable solution for acid neutralization and uranium immobilization post acidic in-situ recovery

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Pierre Rossi, Thomas Coral

Major uranium (U) deposits worldwide are exploited by acid leaching, known as 'in-situ recovery' (ISR). ISR involves the injection of an acid fluid into ore-bearing aquifers and the pumping of the resulting metal-containing solution through cation exchange ...

Gradient Heating Epitaxial Growth Gives Well Lattice-Matched Mo2C-Mo2N Heterointerfaces that Boost Both Electrocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution and Water Vapor Splitting

Bowen Yang

An optimized approach to producing lattice-matched heterointerfaces for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution has not yet been reported. Herein, we present the synthesis of lattice-matched Mo2C-Mo2N heterostructures using a gradient heating epitaxial growth ...

Highly Efficient Activation of HCl Dissociation on Au(111) via Rotational Preexcitation

Rainer Beck

The probability for dissociation of molecules on metal surfaces, which often controls the rate of industrially important catalytic processes, can depend strongly on how energy is partitioned in the incident molecule. There are many example systems where th ...

SET processes in Lewis acid–base reactions: the tritylation of N-heterocyclic carbenes

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Andrzej Sienkiewicz, Cristian Pezzato, Zhaowen Dong

Reactions between N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) and the trityl cation, [Ph3C]+, give covalent adducts of type [NHC–CPh3]+ and/or [NHC–C6H5–CPh2]+. EPR spectroscopy, UV-Vis analyses, and trapping experiments imply that adduct formation involves carbene rad ...

Nuclear Quantum Effects in Sodium Hydroxide Solutions from Neural Network Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Michele Ceriotti

Nuclear quantum effects (NQEs) cause the nuclei of light elements like hydrogen to delocalize, affecting numerous properties of water and aqueous solutions, such as hydrogen-bonding and proton transfer barriers. Here, we address the prototypical case of aq ...
