Performance of a Vapor-Fed Polybenzimidazole (PBI)-Based Direct Methanol Fuel Cell
(American Chemical Society, 2008)
A high-temperature vapor-fed direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) has been implemented using H3PO4-doped polybenzimidazole (PBI) as the electrolyte. The influence of the cell temperature, the methanol concentration, and the ...
Multiphysics Implementation of Electrokinetic Remediation Models for Natural Soils and Porewaters
(Elsevier, 2017)
Models of electrokinetic soil remediation systems have been developed significantly in recent decades. A wide range of physicochemical phenomena occurs in this type of process, which makes it difficult to capture all of ...
Scale-up on electrokinetic remediation: Engineering and technological parameters
(Elsevier, 2016-09)
This study analyses the effect of the scale-up of electrokinetic remediation (EKR) processes in natural soils. A procedure is proposed to prepare soils based on a compacting process to obtaining soils with similar moisture ...
Scale-up of the electrokinetic fence technology for the removal of pesticides: Part I: Some notes about the transport of inorganic species
(Elsevier, 2017)
This work describes the application electrokinetic fence technology to a soil polluted with herbicides in a large prototype containing 32 m3 of soil. It compares performance in this large facility with results previously ...
Removal of oxyfluorfen from spiked soils using electrokinetic fences
(Elsevier, 2016-07)
In this work, an accidental spill of Fluoxyl (commercial herbicide containing oxyfluorfen) is simulated in a pilot plant with a soil volume of 70 × 50 × 50 cm3. The transport of Fluoxyl obtained by the free diffusion of ...
Vanadium redox flow batteries for the storage of electricity produced in wind turbines
(Wiley, 2017-09-07)
In this work, accelerated degradation charge‐discharge tests have been applied to compare the performance of a bench‐scale vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB), when charged under galvanostatic conditions and under the highly ...
Electrokinetic flushing with surrounding electrode arrangements for the remediation of soils that are polluted with 2,4-D
(Elsevier, 2016-03)
This work aimed to evaluate electrokinetic soil flushing (EKSF) technologies for the removal of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) from spiked soils using an electrode configuration consisting of one cathode surrounded ...
Electroremediation of a natural soil polluted with phenanthrene in a pilot plant
(Elsevier, 2014-01)
In this work, a pilot plant with two rows of three electrodes in semipermeable electrolyte wells was used to study the electrokinetic treatment of a natural soil polluted with phenanthrene (PHE). The electrokinetic pilot ...
Electro-osmotic fluxes in multi-well electro-remediation processes
(Taylor &Francis, 2011)
In recent years, electrokinetic techniques on a laboratory scale have been studied but few applications have been assessed at full-scale. In this work, a mock-up plant with two rows of three electrodes positioned in ...
Electrocoagulation of the effluents from surfactant-aided soil-remediation processes
(Elsevier, 2012-09)
The work described here concerns the electrochemical coagulation of effluents obtained in a surfactant-aided soil-remediation processes, in which phenanthrene was extracted from a clay soil using a sodium dodecyl sulphate ...
