Article Synopsis
- The study utilized rapid-scan electrochemical FT-IR spectroscopy to investigate the reduction of carbon monoxide (CO) to formate in a specific solution, focusing on the effects of electrolyte potential changes near a copper electrode.
- Key findings show that CO quickly converts to formate under mildly acidic conditions, while bicarbonate also reduces to formate but more slowly, and carbonate does not lead to formate production at all.
- The research also explored using pulsed electrolysis to enhance formate production rates; however, this method initially increased CO concentration but eventually caused electrode deactivation due to the formation of undesired copper carbonates.
Occupational exposure and indoor air quality monitoring in a composting facility.

The objective of this study was to investigate indoor air quality in a completely covered enclosure used for the aerobic composting of organic wastes originating from vegetable, fruit, and garden refuse. Samples of gases and vapors were taken in the ventilation exhaust ducts. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were collected on Tenax absorbent; after thermal desorption they were analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry.
