Acid mine drainage wastewater photoelectrolysis for hydrogen fuel generation: Preliminary results
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "International Journal of Energy Research"
DOI: 10.1002/er.5862
Abstract: Acid mine drainage (AMD) occurs when sulfide composite materials are exposed to oxygen gas, water, and microorganisms present in the environment. An alternative for the treatment of this residual water is the generation of hydrogen… read more here.
