Review of Iron Sulfide Scale Removal and Inhibition in Oil and Gas Wells: Current Status and Perspectives
(
American Chemical Society
, 2021 , Article Review)
Iron sulfide scale is one of the main types of inorganic scales that block oil and gas wells. Iron sulfide has polymorph crystallinity structures, which complicate its dissolving and inhibition. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is ...
CHAPTER 7: Metal Oxide-based Disposable Sensors for Health Monitoring
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2021 , Book chapter)
Metal oxides and their use as disposable sensors in food, environment, and particularly health monitoring have been addressed over recent decades due to their low-cost, ease of use, high sensitivity, fast response and ...
Dual cationic modified high Ni-low co layered oxide cathode with a heteroepitaxial interface for high energy-density lithium-ion batteries
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with high energy density, safety with longer service life, cost-effectiveness, and superior cycling stability is a demand to achieve the driving range of 300 miles per charge in electric vehicles ...
Thermo-osmosis-Coupled Thermally Regenerative Electrochemical Cycle for Efficient Lithium Extraction
(
American Chemical Society
, 2021 , Article)
Lithium (Li) production based on the soda evaporation process is time-consuming and unsustainable. The emerging electrochemical Li extraction is time-efficient but requires high-concentration Li sources and significant ...
Electrocatalytic activity of nanoparticulate TiO2 coated onto Ta-doped IrO2/Ti substrates: Effects of the TiO2 overlayer thickness
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
The trade-off between short-term efficiency and long-term durability in electrocatalysis has always been a tough choice. This study examines the electrocatalytic activity of double-layered oxide electrodes comprising a ...
Control of the antagonistic effects of heat-assisted chlorine oxidative degradation on pressure retarded osmosis thin film composite membrane surface
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
During pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) operation, thin film composite (TFC) membranes are continuously exposed to chemicals present in the stream that can deteriorate the membrane's selective layer with exposure time. ...
Standalone photoconversion of CO2 using Ti and TiOx-sandwiched heterojunction photocatalyst of CuO and CuFeO2 films
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Artificial photoconversion of carbon dioxide to value-added chemicals remains a challenge. In this work, we synthesize heterojunction copper oxide and copper iron oxide (CuO/CuFeO2; CFO) films on transparent conducting ...
