Bromophenol blue (BB) is an important triphenylmethane derivative widely used in research and industry as a dye or colorant for silk, leather, and drugs. BB has a high proclivity for water contamination because of its high solubility and stability, causing damage to living organisms even in low quantities. This study assessed the feasibility of electrochemical and biological for the decolorization of BB using graphite-copper electrode and indigenous microorganisms, respectively. It was found that effectiveness of electrochemical treatment improves with higher electrolysis time, current density, and electrolyte concentration, drops with rising pH, and shows a nonlinear pattern with temperature. The microbial strains identified as Acinetobacter baumaniu, Serratia marcescens, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus flavus, Bacillus megaterium, Rhizopus stolonifer, and Bacillus subtilis performed poorly, irrespective of the dye/mineral salt ratio. The electrochemical technique was much more effective for decolorizing bromophenol blue dye-contaminated water. The computational results showed clearly that bromine atoms are the most susceptible sites for attack by oxidizing species and, thus, the onset of BB-decolorization.

The world population is continuously increasing. Smart farming is required to keep up with this development by producing more food in a sustainable way. In many new sensor solution developments, the results of the sensor itself is at the target, but the whole solution fails to meet the requirements of the agriculture sensing use cases: the developments suffer from singular approaches with a constricted view solely on the sensor, which might be exchangeable. In this article, we present a holistic approach that can help to overcome these challenges. This approach considers the whole use case, from sense, compute, and connect to power. The approach is discussed with the example of the PLANtAR project, where we develop a soil nitrate sensor and a new leaf wetness and microclimate sensor for application in a greenhouse. The resulting sensor is integrated into a sensor node and compared to a state-of-the-art system. The work shows what is needed to assess the best tradeoffs for agriculture use cases based on a horticulture application.

Global efforts to mitigate climate change are causing a transition from non-renewable energy resources (fossil fuels) to renewable energy resources (wind, solar, hydroelectricity, geothermal). This energy transition to sustainably meet the world’s growing needs for electricity, heating, cooling, and power for transport is widely considered to be one of the biggest challenges facing humanity in this century. The transition is enabled by improvements in generation and storage technologies critical to harvesting inherently intermittent renewable energy. Moreover, growing needs for smaller, lighter, more powerful portable electronic devices and more powerful electric vehicles suitable for long-range transportation have further fostered the demand for dispatchable and efficient electrical energy storage. These have catalyzed rapid development and commercialization of high-energy and lightweight rechargeable batteries, primarily based on lithium. However, lithium-enabled rechargeable batteries are plagued with challenges such as uncontrolled surface/interface (low safety), sluggish transport & reaction kinetics (slow charging), & relatively rare abundance of the metal (high cost). Moving beyond lithium necessitates the development of safe & fast-charging rechargeable batteries based on relatively abundant metals (i.e. Na, Zn, Al, Fe, etc.).

Local electrochemical deposition is an emerging technique, used in the field of additive manufacturing. The advantage of electrochemical additive manufacturing lies in the utilization of room temperature electrolyte and permits to manufacture microscale objects with high precision. The increase in deposition current increases the deposition area, so measures are to be taken to focus the electric field. This work describes the influence of polarization curve slope on the accuracy of local deposition, both experimentally and by computer modelling. The copper was deposited using rotating anode on the surface of stainless steel from sulphate electrolyte. The influence of electrolyte composition on the accuracy of deposition was investigated. The profile of deposited parts was analyzed by profilometry and microscopy. The increased amount of sulfuric acid and presence of the additive in the electrolyte was shown to increase the accuracy of deposition by changing the slope of cathodic polarization curve from 320 to 1100 mA V–1cm–2).

Based on the study of current-voltage dependences during the co-deposition nt electrical reduction of rhenium and molybdenum from sulfuric acid on a Pt electrode, conditions for deposition of alloy nanocoatings of the Re-Mo system were established. The influence of various factors, such as the content of components in the electrolyte, current density, temperature, acidity of solutions, etc., on the composition and quality of coatings was studied. It was established that with an increase in the content of rhenium in the electrolyte and increase of current density, the content of rhenium in the alloy is increased. The composition and morphology of Re-Mo thin films electrodeposited on a platinum electrode were analyzed. The phase composition of the obtained films was determined by XRD using a diffractometer, and the study of the morphology of Re-Mo films on platinum and nickel substrates was performed using a scanning electron microscope. Based on this study, the optimal conditions for the deposition molybdenum with rhenium and the required composition of the electrolyte were selected. For the obtaining rhenium-molybdenum alloys containing 50-80 wt.% Re, the following electrolyte composition can be recommended: 0.0015M Na2MoO4 + 0.0035M KReO4 + 2M H2SO4, pH 0.4; t = 75°C, electrode - Pt.

Electrocatalytically active nanocomposites play a vital role in energy generation, conversion, and storage technologies. Transition metal-based catalysts such as nickel and iron and their pnictide (phosphide), and chalcogenide (selenide) compounds exhibit good activity for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in the alkaline environment. In this study, transition metals-based catalysts (Ni-P-Se, Fe-P-Se, and Ni-Fe-P-Se) solutions were prepared using a simple one-pot method. Prepared solutions were deposited on Ni foam, and different characterization techniques were used to determine the composition, structure, and morphology of as-prepared catalysts. Furthermore, it was found that Ni-Fe-P-Se as a cathode material showed better HER performance compared to other investigated materials with the overpotential value of 316 mV at 10 mA cm-2 current density and 89 mV dec-1 Tafel slope value. The stability tests of the as-prepared catalyst confirmed that the synergistic effect between various elements enhances the electrocatalytic performance for up to 24 hours, providing a fair, stable nature of Ni-Fe-P-Se based sample.

The 3D electro-Fenton technique is, due to its high efficiency, one of the technologies suggested to eliminate organic pollutants in wastewater. The type of particle electrode used in the 3D electro-Fenton process is one of the most crucial variables because of its effect on the formation of reactive species and the source of iron ions. The electrolytic cell in the current study consisted of graphite as an anode, carbon fiber (CF) modified with graphene as a cathode, and iron foam particles as a third electrode. A response surface methodology (RSM) approach was used to optimize the 3D electro-Fenton process. The RSM results revealed that the quadratic model has a high R2 of 99.05 %. At 4 g L-1 iron foam particles, time of 5 h, and 1 g of graphene, the maximum efficiency of phenol removal of 92.58 % and chemical oxygen demand (COD) of 89.33 % were achieved with 32.976 kWh kg-1 phenol of consumed power. Based on the analysis of variance (ANOVA) results, the time has the highest impact on phenol removal efficiency, followed by iron foam and graphene dosage. In the present study, the 3D electro-Fenton technique with iron foam partials and carbon fiber modified with graphene was detected as a great choice for removing phenol from aqueous solutions due to its high efficiency, formation of highly reactive species, with excellent iron ions source electrode.

An electrochemical sensor was introduced as an analytical tool for monitoring caffeic acid in food samples. This analytical tool was amplified by cadmium oxide decorated on single wall carbon nanotubes as a new catalyst and showed a powerful ability to sensing of caffeic acid in food products. The presence of cadmium oxide decorated on single wall carbon nanotubes catalyst improved the oxidation signal of caffeic acid about 2.4 times at optimum conditions. The pH investigation confirmed that the redox reaction of caffeic acid was pH dependent and showed maximum sensitivity at pH 7.0. The paste electrode amplified with cadmium oxide decorated on single wall carbon nanotubes was successfully monitored caffeic acid in the concentration range 0.02–200 µM with a detection limit of 9.0 nM, respectively. The standard addition strategy showed a recovery range of 97.96 – 102.59 % to the measurement of caffeic acid in fruit juice, white and red wine that was acceptable for the fabrication of a new analytical tool in food monitoring.

Carbon electrode materials have generated considerable research interest in recent years due to their ease of use, higher charge transfer kinetics, and cost-effectiveness. Malachite green (MG) is an organic compound with metallic-looking powdered green crystals, which got its name from the color of malachite. MG can be easily converted to leuco-malachite green, a colorless form (LMG). Because both MG forms are dangerous for human health, detecting them in the environment is important. Many researchers across the globe worked on MG detection using various techniques, and this article provides brief information on their results. In this review article, some specific information about electrochemical detection techniques, which are frequently employed for MG determination, is discussed. This review highlights some advances in voltammetric methods using carbon-based electrodes such as glassy carbon, carbon paste, pencil graphite, and their chemically modified forms in various configurations that can be used for the electrochemical detection of MG. Some of the future scopes in using these advanced, carbon-based electrodes in MG determination are also discussed.

For an efficient flow battery operation, knowledge of the state of charge of the battery is essential. Monitoring the state of charge of both half cells is advantageous concerning a timely detection of crossover processes. We present the first results for amperometric and electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance measurements in a vanadium flow battery test setup. By validating with half cell potential measurements as well as ex situ titration we investigate the applicability of both electrochemical methods for an in situ half cell state of charge monitoring.

By validating with half cell potential measurements as well as ex situ titration we investigate the applicability of both electrochemical methods for an in situ half cell state of charge monitoring.","PeriodicalId":15660,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electrochemical Science and Engineering","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90692366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
