A redox reaction can be defined as a phenomenon in which there exists an exchange of electrons between two different species [61]. On the one hand, species that losse electrons are called oxidized species. On the other hand, species that win electrons are the reduced ones. The gain or ...
The commercially available technology for ozone generation is based on the corona discharge process, which involves the application of a high voltage discharge in a cooled/dried gaseous phase containing oxygen (O2 or air). The fundamental processes leading to ozone generation during the silent ...
Reduction-oxidation (redox) reactions, where the exchange of electrons from one compound to another occurs within the same reaction, are critical to cellular life. They are required for multiple biological processes from metabolism to enzymic function. These potent reactions carry risk, with dysregulate...
Co-bioconversion of coal and anaerobic digestion sludge is a process that involves the simultaneous treatment of coal and sludge using microbial activity to produce methane-rich gas for energy harvest. This process has the potential to provide an innovative approach to managing these two waste materia...
Our molecular design involves synthesis of the resorcinarene 119 containing multiple switchable DtBHP phenol groups in order to stabilize different oxidation states (Fig. 2a). There are two important aspects of 1: first, it can be selectively benzylated at 1,3-catechol groups20 (2), due to ...
However, endogenous BR positively regulated the expression and activity of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase. Dwarf overexpression enhanced the activity of dehydroascorbate reductase and glutathione reductase, leading to a reduced redox status, whereas BR deficiency had the contrasting effects. In addition, BR ...
This latter area is the most futuristic, and excites the greatest public reaction. This report will primarily focus on the risks of manufactured Nanoparticles and nanofibres, because this area of nanotechnology should achieve volume production in the near term and it is also the aspect that raises...
The existing total phosphorus analysis procedure involves performing the pretreatment of the sample under high-temperature (>120 °C) and high-pressure (>1.1 kg/cm−2) conditions in order to achieve the oxidative decomposition of the phosphorus. In addition, there are disadvantages, such as the...
But we can also be the natural ambassadors for field science, tailoring expeditions to the needs of scientists and giving them a much-needed voice." Solvay corporate citizenship in action — At Solvay, we have always been driven by our conviction that science holds the key to solving ...
In a redox reaction, the reduction of one entity is always balanced by the oxidation of another. The entities are called a redox pair. The redox reaction changes the oxidation state of both entities. In some cases, the oxidized entity undergoes another reaction to acquire another electron. ...
