Critical current density in advanced superconductors

Progress in Materials Science · 2025-05-26 · 23 citations

<p dir="ltr">This review paper delves into the concept of critical current density in high-temperature superconductors (HTS) across macroscopic, mesoscopic, and microscopic perspectives. Through this exploration, a comprehensive range of connections is unveiled aiming to foster advancements in the physics, materials science, and the engineering of applied superconductors. Beginning with the macroscopic interpretation of as a central material law, the review traces its development from C.P. Bean’…

Nitrate and phosphate removal by capacitive deionization using nanocellulose/polypyrrole electrodes

Chemical Engineering Science · 2024-09-10 · 8 citations

• The NC/PPy electrode exhibited a hydrophilic surface with various functionalities. • Binder-free NC/PPy electrodes were tested for the CDI in a single-pass mode. • NC/PPy electrodes show an affinity towards nitrate ions due to lower co–ions’ repulsion. • The asymmetric CDI cell was more energy and charge-efficient compared to the symmetric one. Capacitive deionization (CDI) is a desalination technology that shows promise for removing nitrate and phosphate ions. The main components of CDI cells…
