(
American Chemical Society
, 2018 , Article)
Ag/Co3O4 catalysts using three different modes of solution combustion synthesis were developed and characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron ...
Thermochemical copper Oxide - Copper sulfate water splitting cycle for solar hydrogen production
(
TechConnect
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, the solar thermochemical copper oxide - copper sulfate (CO-CS) water splitting cycle is thermodynamically investigated. CO-CS cycle consists of two steps: first step - exothermic oxidation of CuO via water ...
Sustained solar fuel production in multiple thermochemical cycles using sol-gel derived ferrite nanopowders
(
TechConnect
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, the sol-gel synthesis of Mg-doped Niferrite i.e. Ni-Mg-ferrite was attempted by using propylene oxide (PO) as a proton scvanger. Effects of two important synthesis paramaters such as amount of PO added during ...
Heat powered water pump for reverse osmosis desalination
(
TechConnect
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Current desalination techniques are typically very energy intensive: energy consumption can account for up to 70% of the desalination costs. To improve economics of water desalination plants innovative energy efficient, ...
