Electrode/electrolyte interfaces in (photo-)electrochemical devices

Climate change, due to the continued emissions of carbon dioxide into our atmosphere and subsequent warming of the planet, is an existential crisis facing humanity. The rising temperature is are resulting in the melting of our ice caps and glaciers, influencing the weather patterns, are making many parts of the world unliveable and are driving...

Supercritical water oxidation of quinoline with moderate preheat temperature and initial concentration

This work reports an experimental study on supercritical water oxidation of quinoline. Moderate preheat temperature (420 °C–510 °C) and initial concentration (1 wt%–10 wt%) are selected to address the possibility of utilizing the heat released during the reaction, in order to realize high conversion rate at relatively low preheat temperature....

Numerical study of the counterflow diffusion flames of methanol hydrothermal combustion: The real-fluid effects and flamelet analysis

Counterflow diffusion flames of methanol hydrothermal combustion are investigated to improve the understanding of hydrothermal flames. It is indicated that the thermodynamic properties by the Peng-Robinson equation of state and the modified transport properties can reduce the flame temperature by about 500 K. The Takahashi correlation for...
