It finds enormous application as a bleaching agent in the pulp, paper, and textile industries, as well as in the cosmetics and medicinal fields and the food processing industry. It is also used as an oxygen source and as an oxidizing agent in the mining and electronic industries. Being environmentally and ecologically friendly finds use in a variety of applications related to the environment. Highly concentrated hydrogen peroxide also finds use as a propellant iin the transportation industry.

However, not all of the barrel could be converted to gasoline or jet fuels, or fuel oils. The remnants of the barrel, asphaltenes, petroleum pitch residue, had no commercial value and presented a disposable problem. Land fill was out of the question and use as a fuel was impractical (unlike coal-tar pitch). The delayed coker was developed to take care of growth in amounts of disposable pitch and the words ‘delayed coke’ were heard more frequently.

Energy Convers. Mang. 2010, 51, 30–32. An important point that is often ignored is that by the time the reversible potential for oxygen evolution is reached, an oxide layer has been formed on all metals. At more anodic potentials, where measurements can actually be conducted to follow the oxygen evolution, the oxide film may be several molecular layers thick. In other words, the OER never occurs on the bare metal surface.

These greenhouse gases kept the atmospheric and oceanic temperatures compatible with chemical reactions leading to molecules evolution, i.e., the creation of life. The oceanic plant forms took out the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and replace it with oxygen . These early plants became entrapped within the rocks and their remains are now identified as kerogens, and petroleum deposits and methane reservoirs. As the continents of earth moved over its surface the great rainforests were established, which provided the organic material that, after being chemically degraded and fossilised, is now recognizable as coal. Nature in the process of maturation of kerogen and coal, had, as the end product, graphitic material, which is the basis of all carbon forms, with the exception of crystalline diamond. About 15,000 years ago, petroleum and coal appeared making life very easy for modern man.

The CRR uses environmentally benign aqueous electrolytes, easily couples with electricity sources, and the reaction rate can be controlled easily by tuning the external bias (i.e., the overpotential). However, the currently known catalysts are very limited in terms of overpotential, selectivity, production rate, activity, and durability, hampering this process from becoming close to commercialization. In general, carbon-based electrodes are characterized by low cost production, high surface areas, a wide working potential window in many media, high electrocatalytic activities for different redox-active biochemical systems, and chemical inertness.

• In this context, the basic physical principles that govern electrochemical systems, including bulk electrochemistry and interfacial electrochemistry, have been intensively researched during the last two decades.
• Moreover, the field of carbon electrochemistry has experienced a robust development over the last decades with the emergence of the multidimensional carbon materials cited above.

The final catalysts consist of a combination of the active material with an inert carbon matrix, which substantially decreases the density of active sites for the four-electron pathway. Carbon anode refers to a broad family of essentially pure carbon, whose members can be tailored to vary widely in their strength, density, conductivity, pore structure, and crystalline development. These attributes contribute to their widespread applicability.
