Scientists from Tohoku University have made significant progress in improving the effectiveness of an electrochemical reaction that generates hydrogen peroxide, a key chemical used in industrial ...

The direct synthesis of hydrogen peroxide from hydrogen and oxygen represents a paradigm shift away from the centralised anthraquinone process towards decentralised, on-demand oxidant production. By ...

Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) packs so much chemical energy into a small space that it is powerful enough to fuel rockets. But this same ability to concentrate energy also makes hydrogen peroxide useful ...

Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) is a vital green oxidant with broad applications ranging from disinfection to chemical manufacturing. However, its industrial production remains heavily reliant on the ...

Ensuring that water is safe to use and consume can be a real chore, especially for those who live in impoverished areas without access to safe drinking water. Here is where researchers at Stanford ...

A sprinkling of magnetic nanoparticles is just enough to power up catalysts, so they can make hydrogen peroxide production more efficient. Researchers have achieved a breakthrough in improving the ...

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory and their collaborators have demonstrated ...

A photoelectrochemical device uses sunlight, water, and oxygen to produce hydrogen peroxide efficiently, stably, and at scalable rates without grid electricity. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Hydrogen peroxide ...

Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) is an industrially important chemical with versatile applications. However, the traditional method used to produce H 2 O 2 is energy intensive and produces significant ...

Photocatalytic production of hydrogen peroxide harnesses solar energy to convert water and dioxygen into H₂O₂ via sequential light-driven redox reactions. Central to this process are two ...

I was fascinated by the idea of jet packs when I was a kid. They were sci-fi magic, and the idea that you could strap into an oversized backpack wrapped in tinfoil and fly around was very enticing.
