Contaminants can be released to the stream from the bed by previous pollution events. The releasing contaminants may cause secondary pollution for a river, which impacts the river’s eco-environmental condition. By means of laboratory experiments and numeri ...
We present a generally applicable computational framework for the efficient and accurate characterization of molecular structural patterns and acid properties in an explicit solvent using H2O2 and CH3SO3H in phenol as an example. To address the challenges ...
Under common processing conditions, both dilute and complex concentrated alloys are often realized as random alloys, with no correlation in the occupancy of lattice sites by the constituent atom types. The current thesis primary addresses two problems in r ...
Clearwater Mesa Uames Ross Island, northeast Antarctic Peninsula) provides a unique opportunity to study solute dynamics and geochemical weathering in the pristine lacustrine systems of a high latitude environment. In order to determine major controls on t ...
Supercritical (SC) fluid technologies are well-established methods in modern green chemical synthesis. Using SC fluids as solvents instead of traditional liquids gives benefits of higher diffusivity and lower viscosity, which allows mass transfer intensifi ...
Investigating molecular excitations with femtosecond time resolution is of pivotal importance to understand the out-of-equilibrium processes taking place in molecular systems upon light absorption. The photochemistry of solvated species is heavily determin ...
Ni-rich layered oxides are promising positive electrodes for fulfillment of government and industry targets for lithium-ion-battery-operated electric mobility purposes. Apart from ongoing research focusing on their design and material production, advanced ...
The association between carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and polymers to afford functional composites has been attributed to enthalpic interactions, neglecting the entropic depletion effect, in which bound solvents are released during the association process. Here, ...
Limestone calcined clay cements (LC3) are blended cements that combine clinker, limestone, calcined clay and gypsum. The availability of the materials required to produce LC3 and the good performance that it achieves, makes LC3 suitable as a sustainable re ...
