The decomposition of ozone, photosensitised by chlorine, has been the subject of numerous investigations, and it would appear from recent work that the kinetics of this reaction are by no means so ...

As a result of work on the photochemical chlorine-ozone reaction carried out at King's College, London, 1 experiments have been in progress on the bromine-ozone reaction in the hope of explaining the ...

Scientists from the N.M. Emanuel Institute of Biochemical Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IBHF RAS), together with colleagues from the Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, NUST MISIS ...

For the first time, scientists in Germany have successfully measured in the ozone layer the chlorine compound ClOOCl, which plays an important role in stratospheric ozone depletion. Doubts in the ...

Mario Molina, who shared the 1995 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for work on understanding the formation and decomposition of ozone in the stratosphere, died Oct. 7 at his home in Mexico City. He was 77.

In the May episode of our Physics World Stories podcast, Andrew Glester is in conversation with the Nobel laureate Mario Molina. The Mexican researcher shared the 1995 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his ...

This paper presents a mathematical model which enables the semi-quantification of ozone (O3) detoxification, based upon the direct reaction of the pollutant with ascorbate (ASC) located in the aqueous ...

Cottonwood saplings were exposed to ozone or charcoal-filtered air in a closed chamber. After leaf abscission, decomposition of individual leaf discs was measured in containers of stream water.

The Hydrens team of researchers developed a numerical model that estimates the ozone concentration needed to meet the disinfection criteria. To do this, it takes into account the geometry and volume ...
