This lecture note provides an exposure into electrochemistry
with all its facets, ranging from the fundamentals like redox reactions and
Faraday's laws to advanced concepts in industrial electrochemistry. Topics range
from equilibrium electrochemistry to electrochemical cells, and from energy
conversion and storage systems like batteries and fuel cells, analytical methods
and sensors, to corrosion protection. The applications of electrochemistry are
also brought into display, be it in the fields of energy storage, corrosion
processes, or latest technologies. Anyone looking to learn about the
electrochemical basis of energy systems and environmental processes will find
this resource indispensable.
This book
makes a deep dive into the physical principles underlying electrochemical
processes, mainly focusing on the electrical double layer (EDL), solute
transport, and electrokinetics. In this text, there is coverage of models that
describe the EDL, such as the Gouy-Chapman-Stern model, and extends into more
complex phenomena such as combined mass transport and chemical reactions,
reverse osmosis, and electrodialysis. It also goes into the physics of
electrochemical systems at the microscopic level, both non-Faradaic and Faradaic
processes. The book applies to fields like bioelectrochemistry and environmental
chemistry and even briefly discusses some experimental methods and numerical
modeling used in electrochemical research.
This book describes a description of electrophoresis-a method that
separates charged particles in a fluid influenced by an electric field. It
elaborates on the principles behind this method and various applications.
Innovations are also given an account to provide insight into how this method
can be used for practical applications such as the application of
electrophoresis in biochemistry, molecular biology, and analytical chemistry.
This book covers electrophoresis in different methods, such as classic and
modern types, from development to its future application. The reader of the book
can acquire practical information on electrophoresis, with more and more
application in scientific studies today.
This series of lectures deals with
great detail about advanced electrochemical concepts like both Faradaic and non-Faradaic
processes, mass transfer controlled reactions, and electrochemical
thermodynamics. Issues deal with the Butler-Volmer model for electrode kinetics,
liquid junction potentials, and selective electrodes. The note also deals with
the techniques that include sampled current voltammetry and cyclic voltammetry,
and thus one can analyze the quasireversible and irreversible electrode
reactions. This resource is appropriate for more advanced students and
researchers aiming to dive deeper into electrochemical processes and techniques
of analysis.
