ELECTROCHEMICAL MICROREACTORS FOR THE ABATEMENT OF ORGANIC POLLUTANTS IN WATER SOLUTION

2015

Electrochemical methods can offer new sustainable routes for the abatement of organic pollutants resistant to biological processes. These methods use a clean reagent, the electron, and very mild operative conditions (ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure) with limited operative costs. However, electrochemical processes present some important disadvantages when performed in conventional reactors. In particular, to achieve reasonable cell voltages when the medium has not an adequate conductivity, one needs adding to the system a supporting electrolyte. This is certainly a main obstacle for a wide application of electrochemical tools. Indeed, adding chemicals is often a problematic issu…

Electrochemically Controlled Ion Dynamics in Porphyrin Nanostructures

2020

peer-reviewed The full text of this article will not be available in ULIR until the embargo expires on the 22/07/2021 The dynamics of ion intercalation into solid matrices influences the performance of key components in most energy storage devices (Li-ion batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, etc.). Electrochemical methods provide key information on the thermodynamics and kinetics of these ion-transfer processes but are restricted to matrices supported on electronically conductive substrates. In this article, the electrified liquid|liquid interface is introduced as an ideal platform to probe the thermodynamics and kinetics of reversible ion intercalation with nonelectronically active matr…

Nanostructured Materials Obtained by Electrochemical Methods: From Fabrication to Application in Sensing, Energy Conversion, and Storage

2020

It is well known that physical and surface properties of nanomaterials are promising to enhance efficiency of nanostructured devices for sensing and for sustainable energy production, conversion, and storage. However, the practical use of nanomaterials is often complicated by the lack of scalable and cost-efficient synthesis procedures and the challenge of integrating into devices 1D nanomaterials saving their structural features. In this field, one of the most severe challenges is to find suitable methods for fabricating nanomaterials. Over the years, numerous preparation methods were proposed in the literature, but not all of them are easily scalable and economically advantageous for indu…

ELECTROCHEMICAL METHODS DETERMINATION OF HEAVY METALS IN WINE BEVERAGE ACHIEVING ECOSANOGENE

2014

In this work, we estimated reproducibility and procedures to improve the selectivity of the method and to determine the influence of different analytical parameters (pH, electrolyte composition, deposition time and potential, presence of ligands). Detection limit of copper in samples of white wine and red Blaj (Romania) is 2.4 ppm, with a deviation of 1.5-2,0%. The results were compared with the results by atomic adsorption classical method. The sensitivity of the method is two times smaller, Daton this Pb2- ions.
