Application of Sm0.8Sr0.2Fe1-xCoxO3-δ (x = 0.2, 0.5, 0.8) perovskite for the oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline media
(Springer, 2019)A new type of perovskite, i.e. Sm0.8Sr0.2Fe0.8Co0.2O3-δ (SSFC1), Sm0.8Sr0.2Fe0.5Co0.5O3-δ (SSFC2), and Sm0.8Sr0.2Fe0.2Co0.8O3-δ (SSFC3) were (i) synthesised by employing a sol gel method with subsequent calcination at 1000 ... -
Co-sputtered PtxPdyAlz thin film electrocatalysts for the production of hydrogen via SO2(aq) electro-oxidation
(Springer, 2016)A co-sputtered PtxPdyAlz ternary system was investigated for potential use as anode catalyst for the electro-oxidation of aqueous sulphur dioxide (SO2), a key reaction in the hybrid sulphur (HyS) process for splitting water ... -
Electrocatalytic activity of sputtered Pt and Pt3Pd2 thin films for SO2(aq) electro-oxidation
(North-West University, 2018)The ever growing demand for energy and worldwide focus on global warming have dictated the course of research in energy production for the past couple of decades, with much emphasis placed on the need for clean and renewable ... -
Investigating sputtered thin film Pt-containing electrocatalysts for SO2(aq) electro-oxidation
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2016)Environmental concerns, social, economic and political pressure, and new technologies are the main factors driving change in energy systems around the globe. Human life and development are inevitably dependent on energy ... -
Silver/nickel oxide (Ag/NiO) nanocomposites produced via a citrate sol-gel route as electrocatalyst for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) in alkaline medium
(Springer, 2018)A series of Ag/NiO nanocomposite electrocatalysts, with a general molecular formula of Ag x Ni1 − xO, was synthesised employing the citrate sol-gel route and tested for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in 0.1 M KOH ... -
SO2 - an indirect source of energy
(SAIMM, 2013)Global sulphur dioxide (SO ) emissions peaked around the mid- 1970s, after which they declined. However, with the growth of specifically China, emissions are on the rise again. In 2008, global anthropogenic SO emissions ... -
Synthesis and evaluation of (NiZnxCry)O electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction
(North-West University (South Africa), 2021)Stored energy, as a result of the conversion of renewable resources has resulted in extensive research and development efforts towards water electrolysis. Alkaline water electrolysis, in combination with renewable energy ...
