In this paper, clean energy generation from hazardous materials by a nanostructured biophotofuel cell was studied. Specifically, electrodeposition of polyaniline on TiO2 nanotube as photoelectrochemical anode for a sodium sulfide fuel cell was performed. The photoelectrochemical response of the TiO2 nanotube capped by polyaniline nanoparticles was studied in UV and visible light illumination using sodium sulfide as the electrolyte. The polyaniline was added onto the top end of the nanotube via electrochemical deposition from 0.1 M aniline (C6H7N) in 1 M HCl solution. Polyaniline nanoparticle/TiO2 nanotube was made into an anode and put into 0.5 M sodium sulfide solution for photoelectrochemical response tests under both visible and ultraviolet light irradiation. The photoelectrochemical anode shows good photo-catalytic property, as evidenced by the open circuit potential changes when the illumination conditions were changed. Its response to ultraviolet light is much stronger than to visible light. It is also found that the higher the temperature of the sodium sulfide solution, the weaker the photo-catalytic response of the anode.

Sulfide Solution

Questions asked by several people about our sodium sulfide testing of paint for lead1 make us feel we might wisely add several words of caution about the stability of the prepared solution. Sodium sulfide solutions deteriorate fairly rapidly with age, especially on exposure to air. For this reason, it is suggested that people using the procedure check the odor of the sodium sulfide solution tlley are using, to make sure the odor of hydrogen sulfide is detectable.

The sulfide-silver method of Timm has been a widely used histochemical technique to demonstrate the presence of heavy metals in biological tissue, particularly in the central nervous system. However, the use of this method or its several modifications results in less than optimal morphological preservation and requires embedding the tissue in paraffin or freezing it and cutting it directly onto slides with a cryostat. These procedures can decrease the sensitivity and limit the application of other histochemical procedures, particularly when experiments necessitate processing large specimens or reaction procedures require techniques using free-floating sections. A perfusion-fixation protocol is described that yields sufficient fixation to cut whole frozen blocks of tissue with a sliding microtome, permits the use of free-floating sections, and allows the concurrent demonstration of horseradish peroxidase and acetylcholinesterase histochemistry without loss of sensitivity. The method consists of a short initial exposure to a sodium sulfide solution followed by a prolonged exposure to a combined sulfide-aldehyde fixative solution.
