Lithium-Ion Battery Development

Modern electronic devices demand high-performance energy storage solutions that can satisfy their high-power demands with greater efficiency and in a compact format. Researchers recognised the potential of lithium ion (li-ion) batteries due to their excellent power density, lightweight format, and recharging capabilities. Despite warranting a Nobel Prize for Chemistry due to the technical advancements offered by li-ion technology, continued lithium-ion battery development is ongoing.

Gas Evolution from Battery Electrodes

Although tremendous efforts are made in developing stable Zn electrodes and bifunctional catalysts in rechargeable Zn–air batteries, the charging process is seldom reported. Herein, in-depth investigation and quantification of the gas evolution on the air electrode is conducted by in-situ characterization using the Hiden QGA.

Photocatalysis | Kinetic Studies of Photocatalytic Reactions 

Kinetic study of catalytic reactions is vital to understand the reaction mechanisms and optimize the design of catalysts. Here the HPR-20 system with a custom designed gas-inlet and in-situ reactor is used  to explore the evolution of gas-phase chemicals during photocatalytic synthetic processes under realistic conditions.

“Metal Cocatalyst Mediated Photocatalytic Dehydrogenative-Condensation and Direct Condensation Cross-Coupling of Aniline and Alcohol”, Applied Catalysis B: Environmental (2022) 309, 121264 DOI: doi.org/10.1016/j.apcatb.2022.121264

How Gas Analysis Factors into Green Hydrogen

Green hydrogen could greatly aid the global shift to sustainable energy and net-zero emissions economies. The global movement to realise hydrogen’s long-standing potential as a clean energy source is gaining unparalleled momentum. Future energy can be clean, safe, and reasonably priced with the help of hydrogen.

If driven by renewable energy, the electrolysers used to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen can produce hydrogen without emitting any greenhouse gases. This type of hydrogen production is commonly referred to as green hydrogen.

What Equipment to Use for Fermentation Monitoring

Fermentation is, arguably, one of the oldest forms of biotechnology: humans have exploited the metabolic power of yeast and other naturally occurring microorganisms to produce alcoholic drinks, bread, and other fermented foodstuffs for thousands of years.

Fermentation still plays a vital role in human development. Definitions of what exactly constitutes “fermentation” vary – but, broadly speaking, the term refers to any metabolic processing carried out by microbes to create products useful to humans. Today, industrial fermentation is used to produce a huge range of products including foodstuffs, commodity chemicals, bioethanol fuel, and agricultural feed.
