Most of the current hydrogen production (about 95%) comes from fossil fuels by using mature commercial processes, such as steam reforming, partial oxidation, and coal gasification. These processes still need significant improvements in energy efficiency, environmental im-[r]

The static dielectric constant is a measure of hydrogen bonding and reflects the characteristics of the polar molecules in water. However, very little is known about the degree of hydrogen bonding under supercritical water oxidation conditions. The lac[r]
<1> In this work, 3D flower-like ZnO samples were synthesized by the following procedure. A sol was first prepared by adding Zn(NO3)2·6H2O (3.756 g) and citric acid (C6H8O7; 5.250 g) to distilled water (100 mL) and stirring at 70 ºC. The sol was then placed in an oven at 100[r]

In general, the increase in the oxidation rate of cross- linked Hb mediated by LPSs is due to an increase in the rate of the initial fast phase, i.e. oxidation of the a chains. The rates of oxidation are reduced in the pres[r]

The current study proposes a novel binary catalyst system (composed of metal/metal oxide nanoparticles) as a promising electrocatalyst in formic acid oxidation. The electro-catalytic oxidation of formic acid is carried out with binary catalysts of Pt nanoparticles (nano-Pt) and manganese oxide nanor[r]
Intrinsic Permeability . Intrinsic permeability is a measure of the ability of soil to transmit fluids. Intrinsic permeability often decreases near injection wells or infiltration galleries. This is also commonly a result of the precipitation of carbonate species, suc[r]
The objective of the current study is to evaluate phototoxicity of nanoparticulate ZnO (nano-ZnO) and its bulk counterpart (bulk- ZnO) to a free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans under natural sunlight (NSL) versus ambient arti fi cial laboratory light (AALL) illumination. A[r]

R-methadone accounts for most, if not all, of the effect of methadone [5-7]. To this extent, we considered that TK/TD relationships in regard to methadone respiratory effects for S- enantiomer would probably just mirror those of R-enantiomer. Therefore, we[r]
