BaTiO Functional Perovskite as Photocathode in Microbial Fuel Cells for Energy Production and Wastewater Treatment.

Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) provide new opportunities for the sustainable production of energy, converting organic matter into electricity through microorganisms. Moreover, MFCs play an important role in remediation of environmental pollutants from wastewater with power generation. This work focuses on the evaluation of ferroelectric perovskite materials as a new class of non-precious photocatalysts for MFC cathode construction.

Electrochemical Detection of Sulfadiazine by Sensors based on Chemically Modified Carbon Electrodes: A Review.

The consumption of medicines (usually pharmaceuticals and chemical health products) has increased in recent decades due to the demand for medicines for various diseases (headache, relapsing fever, dental absence, streptococcal infection, bronchitis, ear and eye infections). Instead, their overuse can lead to serious environmental damage. Sulfadiazine is one of the most often used antimicrobial medications for both human and veterinary therapy, yet its presence in the environment, even in low quantities, offers a potential concern as an emergency pollutant.
