The so-called chlor-iron process combines two known electrochemical methods. One reduces iron oxide into iron in a sodium hydroxide electrolyte. The other is the well-known chlor-alkali process ...

New experiments and supercomputer computations have revealed that iron oxide undergoes a new kind of transition under deep Earth conditions. It is a component of the second most abundant mineral ...

Space is a challenging environment for semiconductors, but researchers have shown that a specific type of memristor (the hafnium oxide memristor, to be exact) actually reacts quite usefully when ...

Producing iron by electrolysis rather than conventional smelting could prevent the emission of a billion tonnes of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every year. So concludes Donald Sadoway, a ...

can be stored compactly in iron by converting rust (iron oxide) into iron. The iron can later serve as fuel, when energy is needed. The iron oxide resulting from the combustion is collected and ...

Previously, Kempler and colleagues used this process to convert solutions containing solid iron(III) oxide particles and sodium hydroxide directly into elemental iron at temperatures around 176 to 194 ...
