New insights into the reaction mechanisms of calcium-based activators modified sodium carbonated activated slag: Precursor dissolution and carboaluminate generation
The redox properties of oxides are critical in catalysis and can be modified at the interface between oxides and metals; as a consequence, working catalysts can be reconstructed. Herein, the influence of metal-support interactions on the interface between ...
This dataset supports the findings reported in the manuscript titled: Predicting rates of manganese oxide reduction from thermodynamic driving forces and structural properties, submitted to Nature Communications.
Understanding the kinetics of manganese oxi ...
Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cell (SOEC) has attracted considerable attention for its potential scalability and high energy conversion efficiency. It is capable of electrolyzing both H2O and CO2 simultaneously, generating syngas that can be further synthesized ...
Magnesium hydride (MgH2) is regarded as a promising hydrogen storage material owing to its high gravimetric and volumetric capacity and low cost. However, its large-scale application is hampered by high stability leading to elevated temperature and slow ki ...
Tidal wetlands undergoing regular tidal inundation contribute more than 60% CO(2) uptake of the coastal ocean. However, a comprehensive understanding of tidal microbial spatial distribution is poorly known, giving rise to previously ignored perturbations o ...
Carbon mineralisation in basalts is a promising cost-effective way to permanently store CO2 in view of climate change mitigation. In this work, the impact of carbon mineralisation on the hydromechanical properties of a basaltic sample is studied. Unlike pr ...
Methane (CH4) has the prospective of becoming one of the major energy carriers for heavy-duty mobility, but its catalytic abatement remains a challenge. CH4 abatement reaction pathways were analyzed using targeted periodic lean/rich oscillations, which res ...
Various methods have been developed to synthesize C-S-H; however, these methods have only allowed for the successful production of pure-phase C-S-H with Ca:Si of 1.5 or less. Attempts to form higher Ca:Si ratios by these methods gives C-S-H (Ca:Si 1.5 or l ...
The shear resistance of headed studs is of paramount importance for the design of steel-concrete composite structures and an accurate predictive model is highly needed. Ensemble learning is expected to be a powerful solution while it relies on laborious se ...
The modeling of non-covalent interactions, solvation effects, and chemical reactions in complex molecular environment is a challenging task. Current state-of-the-art approaches often rely on static computations using implicit solvent models and harmonic ap ...
Energy conversion through sustainable means is essential to counter global warming and an urgent solution through a multidisciplinary approach is required. The temperature change stems from the emission of greenhouse gases largely contributed by burning fo ...
