Hessel et al., p467-478. Sustainability through green processing - LCA and cost analysis for novel process windows, such as using microwaves for heating and reactive ionic liquids to replace solvents, intensify micro and milli process technologies.
DOI: 10.1039/b810396h
Fornasiero et al., p. 501-509. The use of supported bimetallic CuNi systems can significantly enhance catalysts stability with respect to monometallic systems promising better performance in hydrogen production through steam reforming reactions.
DOI: 10.1039/b816259j
Chen et al., p360-363. Sodium amidoborane (NaNH2BH3) was synthesized through chemical reaction between NaH (or NaNH2) and NH3BH3 in THF. As a newly developed material for hydrogen storage it evolves 7.5 wt% hydrogen at 91 °C and converts to NaH and BN.

deMello et al., p300-309. The electric field plays a crucial role in promoting free carrier generation in many organic solar cells.
DOI: 10.1039/B813134C
Lubitz et al., p15-31. The cover picture schematically depicts light capture and charge separation in a leaf (natural photosynthesis) or a photovoltaic device coupled to catalytic processes that lead to water oxidation (O2 and H+) and proton reduction generating molecular hydrogen. The catalytic centers are shown for water oxidase and iron-iron hydrogenase.
