Summary: The paper derives analytical solutions for cylindrical and hollow-cylindrical electrodes with reflective and transmissive boundaries using Laplace transformation techniques, as well as explicit equations for concentration profiles of a Cottrellian potential step experiment. These expressions are given in terms of infinite series involving Bessel functions, and it is shown that computing only a few terms of these series is sufficient for accurate calculation of the desired time-dependent mass-transfer function or current. This method renders the numerical inversion of Laplace transformations obsolete and provides a mathematical supplement to the recent theory.

Summary: The kinetic properties of Ni(II) in FLiNaK molten salt were investigated using various electrochemical techniques. The reduction of Ni(II) to Ni(s) was found to be a single step, two-electron transfer process. Diffusivity values were calculated using different equations and methodologies, with a range of 3.27 x 10(-7)-3.04 x 10(-6) cm(2) s(-1) and an activation energy of 62-104 kJ mol(-1). The variations in the estimated kinetic properties may be attributed to the assumptions made in the theoretical models regarding reversibility and unit activity during Ni metal deposition.

Summary: The electroactivity of Chlorophytum rhizospheric soil was demonstrated using imposed potential chronoamperometry and cyclic voltammetry, showing different current densities at various electrode polarizations. The potential + 0.155 V/SCE appeared to stimulate electrogenic bacteria activity, leading to the formation of electroactive biofilms by different bacterial strains in the rhizosphere. The soil composition of Chlorophytum rhizosphere, particularly the presence of Firmicutes and Proteobacteria, influenced the electroactivity and development of electroactive biofilms.

Summary: This study focused on identifying the best conditions and studying the effects of the operational variables on the integral valorization process of used coffee ground. The results showed that the best conditions for oil extraction were a drying time of 50 degrees C/12 h, ethanol as a solvent with a 12:1 solvent ratio (v/v), and 30 min of extraction time, resulting in the extraction of 0.4 g of oil per gram of spent coffee ground. For the preparation of activated carbon, the best conditions were an activating agent ratio of 1 g(AA)/g(S) and a carbonization temperature of 450 degrees C, resulting in a sorption capacity of 29 mg/g. Additionally, the study found that the extracted coffee oil had a high content of free fatty acids, suggesting the need for an additional purification process.

Summary: LiNixCoyMn1-x-yO2 (NCM) is a critical cathode material for lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles. The aging of cathode/electrolyte interfaces leads to capacity degradation and long-term cycle instability. A novel neural network model called ACGNet is developed to predict electrochemical stability windows of crystals, allowing for high-throughput screening of coating materials. LiPO3 is identified as a promising coating material with high oxidation voltage and low cost, which significantly improves the cycle stability of NCM batteries. This study demonstrates the accuracy and potential of machine learning in battery materials.

Summary: In this study, a bifunctional electrode host design consisting of carbon nanofibers implanted ordered porous Co-decorated Al2O3 supported on carbon nanotube film (CNTF) was proposed to address the shuttling effect of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) and dendrite formation of metal lithium anode in lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. The electrode exhibited excellent conductivity, efficient confinement of LiPSs, and catalytic conversion performance, resulting in high initial capacity and good capacity retention during cycling. As an anode, the electrode showed excellent Li+ diffusion performance and uniform lithium growth behavior, achieving a dendrite-free lithium electrode. The flexible pack cell assembled from these electrodes delivered a specific capacity of 972 mAh g(-1) with good capacity retention.
