AbstractAs a sequence of studies to evaluate the quantity of gas evolution from low/intermediate level waste repositories,hydrogen gas evoluted from corrosion of carbon steel in simulated repository environment was evaluated by laboratory experiments. The experimental results on the hydrogen gas evolution both in air purging condition simulated oxidizing environment and nitrogen purging condition simulated reducing environment, are summarized as follows.(1)Hydrogen gas evolution enough to analyze quantitavely by gas chromatography (>5ppm) has been recognized under almost all test conditions except reducing equilibrium cement water.(2)Effects of purging gas (air,nitrogen) on the hydrogen gas evolution and the corrosion rate calculated from weight loss were air purge > nitrogen purge. On the other hand, the contribution ratio of hydrogen evolution reaction in corrosion rate was nitrogen purge > air purge.(3)Effects of test solution on the hydrogen evolution rate were as fo11ows. • Air Purge :Equilibrium Bentonite Water ≈ Equilibrium Cement Water > Synthetic Sea Watert• N2 Purge:Synthetic Sea Water > Equilibrium Bentonite Water >> Equilibrium Cement Water(4)No distinct effect of crevice geometry of test specimen on hydrogen evolution rate was recognized. Only under the reducing equilibrium cement water, however, the increase of hydrogen evolution was confirmed after the immersion of several hundred hours.(5)Hydrogen evolution rates tended to decrease with testing time except in the reducing equilibrium cement water.(6)No distinct difference of hydrogen evolution rate between steels (SPHC, SPCC) was observed.

Pd-Au codeposits with different ratio of both metals were electrodeposited on carbon felt, characterized by scanning electron microscopy, and investigated as electrocatalysts towards hydrogen evolution reaction in neutral phosphate buffer solution. The quantities of the produced hydrogen gas with different electrocatalysts, estimated from data obtained by chronoamperometry, were confirmed by mass spectrometry analysis. The highest hydrogen evolution rate was achieved with the electrocatalysts, produced from electrolyte with equal Pd and Au content.

ABSTRACTHydrogen gas evolution from water dispersing nanoparticles induced by 60Co gamma-ray irradiation was studied. Nanoparticle of TiO2 with average size of 30 nm was examined. It was indicated that the hydrogen yields were affected significantly by pH of the dispersion. Difference in agglomeration could explain the difference in hydrogen yields. Reactions that enhance the hydrogen yields were discussed, and it was concluded that the radiolysis process is dominant in the total enhancement mechanism.

The formation and adsorption of bubbles on electrodes weaken the efficiency of gas evolution reactions such as the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) by hindering proton transfer and consuming nucleation energy.

Designing highly active and robust platinum-free electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction is vital for large-scale and efficient production of hydrogen through electrochemical water splitting. Here, we report nonprecious intermetallic Cu5Zr clusters that are in situ anchored on hierarchical nanoporous copper (NP Cu/Cu5Zr) for efficient hydrogen evolution in alkaline medium. By virtue of hydroxygenated zirconium atoms activating their nearby Cu-Cu bridge sites with appropriate hydrogen-binding energy, the Cu5Zr clusters have a high electrocatalytic activity toward the hydrogen evolution reaction. Associated with unique architecture featured with steady and bicontinuous nanoporous copper skeleton that facilitates electron transfer and electrolyte accessibility, the self-supported monolithic NP Cu/Cu5Zr electrodes boost violent hydrogen gas release, realizing ultrahigh current density of 500 mA cm-2 at a low potential of -280 mV versus reversible hydrogen electrode, with exceptional stability in 1 M KOH solution. The electrochemical properties outperform those of state-of-the-art nonprecious metal electrocatalysts and make them promising candidates as electrodes in water splitting devices.

Cobaloximes and their BF<sub>2</sub>-bridged analogues have emerged as promising non-noble metal catalysts for the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Herein we report the serendipitous discovery that double complex salts such as [Co(dmgh)<sub>2</sub>py<sub>2</sub>]<sup>+</sup>[Co(dmgBPh<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub>]<sup>-</sup> can be obtained in good yields by treatment of commercially available [Co(dmgh)<sub>2</sub>pyCl] with triarylboranes. A systematic study on the use of such double complex salts and their single salts with simple counterions as photocatalysts revealed HER activities comparable or superior to existing cobaloxime catalysts and suggests ample opportunities for this compound class in catalyst/photosensitizer dyads and immobilized architectures. Preliminary electrochemical and spectroscopic studies indicate that one key advantage of these charged cobalt complexes is that the reduction potentials as well as the electrostatic interaction with charged photosensitizers can be tuned.
