A Smart Colorimetric Platform for Detection of Methanol, Ethanol and Formic Acid
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Carbon dioxide (CO2 ) is a greenhouse gas in the atmosphere and scientists are working on converting it to useful products, thereby reducing its quantity in the atmosphere. For converting CO2, different approaches are used, ...
Rational Synthesis of Mixed Metal Oxide Clusters Supported on a Partially Etched MAX Phase for Efficient Electrocatalytic CO2 Conversion
(
Springer
, 2022 , Article)
The precise fabrication of an efficient catalyst for CO2 conversion into beneficial hydrocarbons is particularly interesting for industrial and environmental applications. Herein, a three-dimensional (3D) hybrid of metal ...
A review of MXenes as emergent materials for dye removal from wastewater
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
MXenes have emerged as a superlative contestant water purification technology due to their two-dimensional multilayered structures, multifarious chemical composition, photocatalytic properties, and activated metallic ...
A review of bipolar plates materials and graphene coating degradation mechanism in proton exchange membrane fuel cell
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2022 , Article Review)
Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) have the perception to strongly reduce global emissions through an environmentally friendly perspective. Graphene has drawn global attention and has positioned itself as a ...

Developing an efficient catalytic system for electrolysis with reduced platinum (Pt) loading while maintaining performance comparable to bulk platinum metal is important to decrease costs and improve scalability of the ...
Economic evaluation of hybrid electrical systems for rural electrification: A case study of a rural community in Nigeria
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2022 , Article)
Diesel generators have long been in use in rural communities in Nigeria despite the impact of emissions caused by these generators on the environment. Due to the high cost and fluctuation in the diesel price and the need ...
Superior Corrosion and UV-Resistant Highly Porous Poly(vinylidene fluoride- co-hexafluoropropylene)/alumina Superhydrophobic Coating
(
American Chemical Society
, 2022 , Article)
The current research is devoted to fabricating a superhydrophobic coating on alumina surfaces via a facile one-step electrospinning technique. The wettability properties of the as-prepared coating were investigated. The ...
