As the Lincoln Reflecting Pool turned green with algae, officials are now using chemicals to fix it.

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 ...

Gallon jugs of hydrogen peroxide were dumped into the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. But will that fix the green algae?

A new study has put a remarkable and unexpected chemical genesis on more solid footing. Back in 2019, Stanford University researchers and colleagues revealed the surprising discovery that hydrogen ...

It has been 14 years since the overhaul of the Washington D.C., reflecting pool was finished. It was the first time in 90 ...

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 ...

Photocatalytic production of hydrogen peroxide harnesses solar energy to convert water and dioxygen into H₂O₂ via sequential light-driven redox reactions. Central to this process are two ...

H 2 O 2 is a widely used green chemical with important applications in environmental remediation, disinfection, and chemical synthesis. The conventional anthraquinone process, although industrially ...

Ensuring that water is safe to use and consume can be a real chore, especially for those who live in impoverished areas without access to safe drinking water. Here is where researchers at Stanford ...
