A new type of cell (Hydrostatic horizontal cell (HHC)) developed for continuous electroplating of strip is described. The cell consists of upper frame, lower frame, upper anode, lower anode, liquid baffle, conductive roll, backup roll, edge mask and its control system etc. The upper and lower hydrostatic cavities are located at the middle of the cell. The HHC adopts an innovative operating principle to generate strong capability of using hydrostatic pressure to grip the strip and to correct the strip twist. It thereby remarkably decreases the running space height and the deviation-from-center error of the strip in the cell. It originally builds up the horizontal spray of electrolyte to both directions at the center of the cell. Consequently the gas exhausting ability of the cell and the electroplating efficiency are improved. The cell has improved overall technical performances over conventional horizontal cells, and it is capable to effectively prevent short circuiting between the strip and the anodes. In general, the advantages of HHC include stable operation, excellent coating quality, high current density, low power consumption, and simple as well as compact equipment.

AbstractExtreme Devices has fabricated and tested gated CVD diamond microtip arrays for use as cold cathodes in a variety of high power, high temperature, and high radiation applications. The uses for these devices include direct replacement of hot filament cathodes, microwave amplifiers, spaceborne sensors, and other areas requiring devices that provide high current output and that will function in harsh environments. The basic architecture of the device including an overview of the method for obtaining the self-aligned gated diamond microtip array is presented. Key developments for these robust devices include low electron extraction fields (3 V/μm), high current density output (>75A/cm2), stable operation for long periods of time, and operation in severe (high pressure) conditions. The gated cathodes offer low turn-on voltages (22 V) and appear to be well suited to a number of applications.

Bio- Fuel Cell is promising technology to overcome global issue. However, there are many problems in Bio-fuel cell using organism catalyst because research of this type of fuel cell is started in only few years. Purpose of this research is to obtain high electric power using new type of electrode in Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC). Firstly, three types of electrodes were prepared. Those are (1) painted CNT (Carbon Nanotube) by Ag paste, (2) only Ag paste (without CNT) and (3) bare carbon thin plate. MFC with CNT painted (2) electrode generated high current density and high power in MFC, but its E.M.F (Electromotive Force) was decreased. When CNT painting was applied only to anode, high current and power densities were attained without reducing E.M.F.

The galvanostatic dissolution of mercury from the surface of glassy carbon into a thiocyanate solution proceeds in accord with theoretical assumptions, as manifested by the constant product of the dissolution current and transition time. Under certain relations between the amount of oxidised mercury and concentration of thiocyanate at the electrode surface, however, a small part of the mercury dissolves at more positive potentials than correspond to the Nernst equation. This dissolution can be accompanied by potential oscillations. The anomalous behaviour is elucidated by the concept about coverage of a certain part of mercury with a film of sparingly soluble compounds of SCN- ions with mercury. This film is formed at the end of the galvanostatic dissolution on certain places of the electrode surface covered with mercury droplets, where SCN- ions are much exhausted as a result of a high current density.
