New power density record for fully green Triboelectric Nanogenerators (TENGs)

This article is part of a news series where we highlight the latest research from our Treesearch partners and within the Treesearch thematic research areas. Articles are published on a regular basis.    Triboelectric nanogenerators – so-called TENGs – have received increasing attention for their broad usage in energy harvesting devices as well as their […]

Bright possibility to extract hydrogen peroxide from lignin

By exposing the lignin in the pulp to daylight, a photocatalytic production of hydrogen peroxide takes place inside the pulp process. – This could mean a real simplification of the manufacturing process for bleached paper. You simply skip the step of adding hydrogen peroxide from the outside. Instead, the mass is exposed to light, explains […]
