Scientists have determined the structure of a new material with potential to be used in solar energy, batteries, and splitting water to produce hydrogen. The physical properties and crystal structures of most tellurate materials were only discovered during the last two decades, but they have tantalizing properties. For example, they respond to light in a way very similar to current solar materials. “This could be one material for all applications,” says University of Oulu scientist Dr. Harishchandra Singh. “But they are new and very little is known in the literature. We are am trying to explore all its unexplored and hidden properties.” Identifying the structure of new materials is often the first step to unlocking their potential for applications. The international team, led by Matthias Weil (Technische Universität Wien / Vienna University of Technology) and Dr. Singh, successfully created a single crystal of a metal tellurate compound, making it possible to precisely define its structure with better accuracy than ever before. The pair used the Canadian Light Source (CLS) to understand how the material works under real world conditions. A longtime user of the facility, Singh knew that the Brockhouse beamline could help confirm the structural details they had uncovered. Their results, published in the journal Materials Advances, overturn what was previously thought to be the structure of metal compounds. “With the results that we are publishing here, one can think of using these metal tellurate compounds for a practical application in future in a solar cell and also in water splitting to produce hydrogen.” Singh hopes to keep working on and discovering new uses for these fascinating materials. “I feel really excited to be part of discovering a new material which is useful for our current scenario, especially solving global issues like climate change,” says Singh. Lead author Weil shares that excitement. "I am always amazed that a closer look at a material can explain special properties and thus enables practical applications, which is particularly true for the family of metal tellurate," he says. https://bit.ly/3U53bsF #advancedmaterials #functionalmaterials #MetalTellurates

⚡🌐 Interested in understanding the #land use of #windenergy? 🌐⚡ We applied a #machinelearning model to 15,871 #windturbines and the associated #infrastructure in 318 wind farms to quantify the #land area associated with wind energy in the U.S. portion of the #WesternInterconnection. Turns out the application of power density without accounting for co-use of land (e.g., agriculture) can provide misleading results. Our analysis provides a consistent method by which dispersed infrastructure (e.g., wind and natural gas-fired power) can be compared. The work was led by ETAPA postdoc Tao Dai in collaboration with a great team: Shuwen (Ivy) Zheng, Yinong Sun, Yifan Zhao, and Jeya Maria Jose Valanarasu and Vishal Patel. Excellent work, Tao et al!

📢 New Publication: Black goes green: single-step solvent exchange for sol-gel synthesis of carbon spherogels as high-performance supercapacitor electrodes   🔬 Just online now at the Royal Society of Chemistry journal "Energy Advances", we present a novel and eco-friendly method for creating carbon spherogels using a sol-gel process. These spherogels are promising electrochemical materials, as demonstrated in our work, particularly for supercapacitors. This work is part of our larger research journey to explore the full potential of hollow-core spherical carbon particles, aka carbon spherogels, conceptualized and pioneered by Michael Elsaesser at Paris Lodron Universität Salzburg. If you have never heard about carbon spherogels before... make sure to check out the carbon spherogel website: https://lnkd.in/dTsgKTMg   💡 Highlights: Introduction of a more environmentally friendly sol-gel synthesis method. Creation of carbon spherogels with adjustable wall thicknesses. Utilization of a single-step solvent exchange process, significantly reducing time and cost. Preservation of high specific surface area with less than 20% loss compared to traditionally dried counterparts. Achievement of specific surface areas between 2300–3600 m²/g after physical activation. Promising electrochemical performance for aqueous supercapacitors (1 M KOH) of up to 204 F/g.   👏 A huge thank you to our team and collaborators for their hard work: Miralem Salihovic, Emmanuel Pameté, Stefanie Arnold, Irena Sulejmani, Theresa Bartschmid, Nicola Hüsing, Gerhard Fritz-Popovski, Chaochao Dun, Jeffrey J.

🎉🏆 We are thrilled to announce Isabell Bagemihl as the winner of the Best TU Delft e-Refinery Paper Award of 2023! Notably, Isabell's remarkable work has not only earned her the Best Paper Award of e-Refinery Institute, but also a nomination for the Best Climate Action and Energy Paper 2023. On Tuesday, March 19th, she will compete with other finalists to earn the title of TU Delft Best Energy Paper 2023! 🔬𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐛𝐨𝐧 𝐜𝐲𝐜𝐥𝐞: 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐥𝐚𝐛-𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐯𝐢𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 The burning, refining or processing of fossil fuels leads to CO2 emissions, thereby contributing to climate change. Low-temperature electrochemical conversion can do exactly the opposite: converting waste CO2 to much needed base and fine chemicals, thereby helping to make fossil fuels a thing of the past. This technology has already been demonstrated at lab-scale. But when it comes to assessing economic viability at factory-scale, techno-economic studies incorrectly assume that performance variables (such as energy efficiency or reaction product specificity) can be tuned independently of each other. Isabell Bagemihl developed a multi-scale model – from reaction channel to full-scale process – for assessing reactor design for electrochemical CO2 reduction from a techno-economic perspective. Specifically considering the performance interdependencies, it yields performance targets that are actually achievable in current electrolyser designs. She demonstrated her model for a single reaction (CO2 to ethylene) but it can be readily adapted to many more. Increasing the understanding from lab-scale to economic impact, her research may help guide future fundamental electrolyses research, bringing a closed carbon cycle ever closer.

The creative process of innovation and the nurturing of innovative thinking in my students is something that derives me much pleasure and having just learned of the Biomimicry Institute , I would like to take a moment to appreciate the extraordinary designs and Engineering solutions that Mother Nature , has bestowed upon us. From the intricate patterns of a butterfly's wings to the awe-inspiring strength of spider silk, the natural world is a treasure trove of inspiration for human technology and design. Biomimicry, the practice of emulating nature's designs and processes to solve human challenges, is a testament to the brilliance of the natural world. By studying and imitating the forms, processes, and systems found in nature, we can be inspired to create sustainable and efficient solutions to a wide range of problems. Whether it's drawing from the self-cleaning abilities of lotus leaves for innovative surface coatings, or mimicking the aerodynamics of birds for more efficient wind turbines, the potential for biomimicry is boundless. By embracing the lessons of the natural world, we can revolutionize industries, advance sustainability, and unleash our creativity in unprecedented ways. To engineers seasoned and new be inspired by Mother Nature's remarkable designs, and harness the power of biomimicry to shape a more sustainable and harmonious future. #Biomimicry #Innovation #Sustainability #MotherNature Be inspired by following the link below to see how biomimicry can support in solving #globalgrandchallenges in #sustainabletransport #agriculture #health #energysecurity and more.
