For SOFCs based on oxygen-ion (vacancy) conductors, the global anode reaction for hydrogen electro-oxidation is given by Figure 1: Patterned metal on thin-film ceria as a model system to study ...

Researchers at the California Institute of Technology have discovered that ceria (or cerium dioxide) is an excellent catalyst for fuel cell anodes. This discovery was made through careful ...

A recent survey of magnesium sacrificial anode cathodic protection systems installed on Bahrain Petroleum Co. (BAPCO) pipelines in 1998 revealed that many of the anodes had failed prematurely and ...

Chemists can couple short-lived radicals to make myriad types of molecules, thanks to a microfluidic electrochemical cell that places the anode and the cathode just 25 µm apart. The new device offers ...

Scientists have developed an oxygen-assisted aluminum/carbon dioxide power cell that uses electrochemical reactions to both sequester the carbon dioxide and produce electricity. While the human race ...

A new, highly efficient electrochemical process converts propane into propene at room temperature. The team that developed the process believes that it is an economically viable, environmentally ...

Scientists led by the Kunming University of Science and Technology in China have proposed to reuse silicon from discarded solar cells to develop silicon-carbon composite anode materials that could be ...
