The Journal of The Electrochemical Society is publishing a focus issue in connection with the Pulse and Reverse Pulse Electrolytic Processes 4: In Honor of EJ Taylor symposium at the 244th ECS Meeting.

This focus issue is in honor of Dr. E. Jennings (EJ) Taylor, a pioneer in the development of industrial applications of electrochemical deposition, surface finishing, and conversion technologies. Dr. Taylor has made significant contributions to the development and commercialization of industrial electrolytic processes, with a specific focus on pulse and pulse reverse electrolytic processes used to enhance a variety of electrochemical processes, coupled with the design and development of scalable, modular apparatus. Dr. Taylor founded Faraday Technology, Inc. in 1991, with a mission to change the focus of electrochemical technologies from the art of complex chemistries to the science of pulse and pulse reverse electric fields. He has been a leader in research into surface finishing technologies, including electrodeposition and electropolishing, as well as the development of electrochemical conversion, recycling, and decarbonization technologies. Dr. Taylor has received awards including the 2013 Presidential Green Chemistry Challenge award for electrodeposition of chrome coatings for wear applications, 2011 R&D 100 award for electrodeposition of Co-Mn alloy coating for solid oxide fuel cells as part of a team with DOE NETL, and 2007 Blum Scientific Achievement award of the National Association of Surface Finishers.

The Electrochemical Society (ECS) is continuing its search for candidates to serve as Editor-in-Chief (EIC) of ECS Advances (the journal, ECSA). (more…)

Spotlight on Kody D. Wolfe, Ardavan Zanganeh, Richard N. Arthur, Jason P. Trembly, and Damilola A. Daramola for their article, “Considerations for Electrochemical Phosphorus Precipitation: A Figures of Merit Approach.” Electrochemical phosphorus precipitation (EPP) from wastewater is a promising emerging technology for recovering valuable nutrients. While there are significant advantages of EPP compared to traditional phosphorus recovery, large gaps in reported performance exist between EPP and industrial methods. Consult the current issue of ECS Interface to learn what the authors believe is the key to closing these gaps.

The ECS Journal of Solid State Science and Technology is publishing a focus issue in connection with the 245th ECS Meeting Chemical Mechanical Polishing 17 symposium honoring Professor S .V. Babu, who celebrates his 80th birthday in 2024. This issue presents state of the art and reviews of approaches that will reduce the gap between our understanding of fundamentals and practice of CMP and should help accelerate beneficial changes in related hardware and consumables.

Prof. Babu has played an important role in advancing these domains through extensive research publications and patents, mentorship of 50 PhD students, and collaboration with the industry. He has contributed to various improvements in CMP processes, materials, and equipment for the last three decades. Prof. Babu edited the first focus issue on CMP in 2015 and the first (2016) and second editions (2022) of the book Advances in Chemical Mechanical Planarization. He received lifetime achievement awards from ICPT (International Conference on Planarization/CMP Technology) in Leuven, Belgium, and from Clarkson University, U.S., both in 2018, as well as several awards from IBM and Intel. Prof. Babu was the lead organizer of the International CMP conferences held in Lake Placid, U.S., for 22 years. (more…)

Spotlight on Matthew Liu and William Tarpeh for their contribution to The Electrochemical Society Interface summer issue: “Reports from the Frontier: Electrifying Chemical Transformations and Separations to Valorize Wastewater Nitrogen.”

The authors address “…treating nitrogen as a resource to recover rather than simply a pollutant to remove aligns with the US National Academy of Engineering’s call to manage the nitrogen cycle, a challenge central to chemical manufacturing and ecosystem protection.” (more…)

A hot topic and emerging technology in the scientific community is the development of biosensors for organ-on-chip (OOC) devices. As research on OOCs continues expanding, so does the pressing need to integrate novel sensing approaches beyond spectroscopic, enzymatic, and voltametric platforms. There is a concurrent and growing need for scholarly content that supports advances in disease model development, drug screening, toxicology, pathogenesis studies, efficacy testing, and virology. Help The Electrochemical Society disseminate content in this area by making us your home for publishing gold open-access content on biosensors for OOCs. Reviews, perspectives, methods, and research articles on this topic are welcome. Submit today!
