Electrochemical Denitrification and Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Ethylbenzene over N-doped Mesoporous Carbon

For an environment-friendly removal of nitrates by using nanoparticles as electrochemical catalysts, researchers from the Adam Slabon group at Stockholm University have investigated metal-free alternatives in the form of carbon materials which are selectively doped at the graphene edges. This carbon material can replace nanoparticles and as such eliminate completely nanoparticle exposure to the environment.
