Advancing the Green Transition: Gaining Insight into Electrochemical Reactions
The world is in the midst of a green transition, and electrochemical reactions are playing an important role. A new insight into these reactions, recently published in the journal Nature Communications, is advancing our understanding of how these processes work and could lead to more efficient and cost-effective ways of using them.
The research, conducted by a team of scientists from the Universities of Copenhagen and Leiden, shows that electrochemical reactions are governed by the way in which atoms and molecules interact with each other. By understanding the forces that drive these reactions, the researchers have been able to identify the most efficient pathways for the transfer of electrons. This insight could be used to design reactions that are more efficient than ever before, leading to a more sustainable and cost-effective green transition.
