Summary on Grant Application Form
We aim to build on recent insights from fundamental sonoelectrochemistry to attempt three novel experiments in the areas of electrosynthesis and electroanalysis. In the former we seek to establish proof-of-concept in respect of (a) sono-cryoelectrochemical synthesis, and (b) surfactant free emulsion sono-electrosynthesis whereas in the latter we propose (c) a novel biphasic approach for the sonoelectroanalytical determination of metals and other species in ultra-dirty and/or passivating media (such as sewage, blood,..) in which traditional voltarnmetric measurements are impossible.
