Imagine trying to measure something super tiny in a messy environment. That's what scientists face when they try to study electrochemical processes in non-ideal media. Usually, they use a normal hydrogen electrode (NHE) as a reference. But in messy, non-ideal conditions, things get tricky. That's wh
Imagine swimming in a pool where the chlorine levels are perfect. That's what scientists are aiming for with a new sensor. This isn't your average sensor. It's a cleverly designed electrode. It has a secret weapon: Fe 3 O 4 -Cu-BTC composite. This is mixed with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWC
MXenes, a unique type of two-dimensional lamellar material, have gained a lot of attention lately. However, they have a tendency to collapse and stack due to hydrogen bonding and interlayer van der Waals forces, which hurts their performance in electrochemical processes and capacitive deionization.
Scientists have been exploring a new way to fight climate change by removing carbon from the oceans using electrochemical systems. These systems use a process called alkalinity-swings to get rid of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). This can be done in two ways: by releasing carbon dioxide gas or by
