When water is split electrolytically, the result is typically hydrogen -- and 'useless' oxygen. Instead of oxygen, you can also produce hydrogen peroxide, which is required for many branches of ...

"My previous catalyst for this reaction used platinum, which is too expensive for decentralized water purification," said research engineer Samira Siahrostami. "The beautiful thing about our cheaper ...

The question of whether water can form hydrogen peroxide should be answered by thermodynamics (see C&EN, June 13, 2022, page 3). If a reaction is possible (spontaneous), then the change in the Gibbs ...

Hydrogen peroxide has become the compound of choice for gaseous biodecontamination in the pharmaceutical industry. As some processes operate at vapour concentrations below the dew point, to avoid ...
