A Review of Membrane Electrode Assemblies for the Anion Exchange Membrane Water Electrolyser: Perspective on Activity and Stability

Jan Van Herle

The performance of a water electrolyser (WE) depends on several aspects, many of which are located in the powerhouse of the cell, namely, the membrane electrode assembly (MEA). The anion exchange membrane WE (AEMWE) is a promising technology; however, both ...

The isotopic signature of U(V) during bacterial reduction

Marinella Mazzanti, Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Radmila Faizova, Ashley Richards Brown, Margaux Camille Andréa Molinas

The two-step electron transfer during bacterial reduction of UVI to UIV is typically accompanied by mass-independent fractionation of the 238U and 235U isotopes, whereby the heavy isotope accumulates in the reduced product. However, the role of the UV inte ...

O2-permeable membrane reactor for continuous oxidative depolymerization of lignin

Jeremy Luterbacher, Jean Thierry C Behaghel de Bueren

Depolymerization of lignin into aromatic monomers is one of the highest priority targets for valorization of lignin obtained from biomass pretreatment. Oxidative lignin depolymerization proceeds rapidly under alkaline conditions at elevated temperature wit ...

Technical note: Two-component electrical-conductivity-based hydrograph separation employing an exponential mixing model (EXPECT) provides reliable high-temporal-resolution young water fraction estimates in three small Swiss catchments

Jana Freiin von Freyberg

The young water fraction represents the portion of water molecules in a stream that have entered the catchment relatively recently, typically within 2-3 months. It can be reliably estimated in spatially heterogeneous and nonstationary catchments from the a ...

Organic matters, but inorganic matters too: column examination of elevated mercury sorption on low organic matter aquifer material using concentrations and stable isotope ratios

Lorenz Schwab

Sorption of mercury (Hg) in soils is suggested to be predominantly associated with organic matter (OM). However, there is a growing collection of research that suggests that clay minerals and oxides are also important solid phases for the sorption of solu ...

A synergistic approach for lignin biofuel production: Integrating non-catalytic solvolysis with catalytic product upgrading

Paul Joseph Dyson, Zhaofu Fei, David Savary

Enzymatic hydrolysis lignin (EHL) is a large-scale industrial waste generated from the bio-ethanol production process. Its complex and heterogeneous nature as well as its low solubility in common solvents, has posed a persistent barrier to its effective ut ...

Rapid grain boundary diffusion in foraminifera tests biases paleotemperature records

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Lukas Baumgartner, Arthur Adams, Deyanira Graciela Cisneros Lazaro, Jinming Guo

The paleoseawater temperature record from the oxygen isotope compositions of fossil foraminifera tests may be biased by up to about 1 degrees C due to grain-boundary diffusion alone, according to isotope exchange experiments on foraminifera tests. The oxyg ...

Metabolic Performance and Fate of Electrons during Nitrate-Reducing Fe(II) Oxidation by the Autotrophic Enrichment Culture KS Grown at Different Initial Fe/N Ratios

Natalia Jakus

Autotrophic nitrate-reducing Fe(II)-oxidizing (NRFeOx) microorganisms fix CO2 and oxidize Fe(II) coupled to denitrification, influencing carbon, iron, and nitrogen cycles in pH-neutral, anoxic environments. However, the distribution of electrons from Fe(II ...
