according to circumstance of kerman sarcheshmeh cooper complex that its anode slime is mainly consisted of cu, ag, au, pb and se. in this work, recovery of silver from anode slime and subsequent synthesis of silver nanoparticles from leaching solution was made. silver was separated from anode slime by using of hno3 and hcl. x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (xrf) was used to characterize anode sl...

The mechanism of energy conversion in a direct glycerol fuel cell (DGFC) is governed by the anode supported heterogeneous steps of glycerol electro-oxidation. In aerated alkaline electrolytes, glycerol also participates in a base catalyzed process, which can release certain species mixing with the anode catalyzed surface products. As a result, selective probing of the surface catalytic reaction...

In this study, the electrooxidative carbon nanotube (CNT) filtration of sorptive methyl orange (MO) and non-sorptive ferrocyanide was investigated by both experiment and numerical simulation. The two-dimensional numerical model includes target molecule; mass transport, adsorption, and electron transfer and product desorption. For MO, the model was calibrated with experimental reaction rates fro...

Cell surface proteins are internalized into the cell through endocytosis and either degraded within lysosomes or recycled back to the plasma membrane. While perturbations in endosomal internalization are known to modulate renal function, it is not known whether similar alterations in recycling affect renal function. Rififylin is a known regulator of endocytic recycling with E3 ubiquitin protein...

Direct urea/hydrogen peroxide fuel cells (DUHP-FCs) can produce electrical energy by recycling urea-rich wastewater. This study expands the commerciality of DUHP-FC removing precious metals from their design. Nickel nanorod/nickel foam (NNR/NF) was fabricated using hydrothermal treatment to be used as anode, and Prussian blue coating deposited potentiostatic electrodeposition onto hydrophilic c...

A new method for extracting the series resistance and thermal resistance of a Schottky diode is presented. The method avoids the inaccuracies caused by the temperature dependence of the saturation current and ideality factor. These are a major concern for traditional extraction methods, especially when the diode under test has a submicrometer anode diameter and is significantly heated up by the...

Here we reported the use of electropolymerization to achieve the transformation of aqueous hydroquinone to solid-phase polyhydroquinone (PHQ) with pseudocapacitive characteristics, and the application of this redox-active product to shuttle electron transfer in the anode system of a microbial fuel cell (MFC). The microscopic and spectroscopic results showed that the treatment of the graphite fe...

The challenges brought on by the increasing complexity of electronic products, and the criticality of the materials these devices contain, present an opportunity for maximizing the economic and societal benefits derived from recovery and recycling. Small appliances and computer devices (SACD), including mobile phones, contain significant amounts of precious metals including gold and platinum, t...

The use of recycling techniques in pavement construction offers significant benefits of resource conservation and emission reduction. While the environmental benefits are generally considered as business expenses, a new trend is to turn sustainable construction into profit. By generating financial revenue via carbon trading mechanism, asphalt producers and road builders can compensate their sus...
