Transition Metal Oxides Anchored onto Heteroatom Doped Carbon Nanotubes as Efficient Bifunctional Catalysts for Rechargeable Zinc-Air Batteries
DownloadFall 2021
It is well known that renewable energy, e.g., wind and solar power, are intermittent energy sources. This means that energy storage devices are needed to store the energy for when it is needed. Currently Li-ion batteries are used as these energy storage devices, not only for alternative energy...

Two-Stage Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic Aggregation for the Flotation Separation of Fine and Ultrafine Minerals
DownloadSpring 2023
In mineral processing froth flotation is the most important technique to recover and separate different minerals. However, the flotation process deteriorates significantly with low efficiency and selectivity when mineral particles are smaller than 20 µm. Low flotation kinetics of fine hydrophobic...
