The genome of jojoba ( Simmondsia chinensis ): A taxonomically isolated species that directs wax ester accumulation in its seeds

Seeds of the desert shrub, jojoba ( Simmondsia chinensis ), are an abundant, renewable source of liquid wax esters, which are valued additives in cosmetic products and industrial lubricants. Jojoba is relegated to its own taxonomic family, and there is little genetic information available to elucidate its phylogeny. Here, we report the high-quality, 887-Mb genome of jojoba assembled into 26 chromosomes with 23,490 protein-coding genes. The jojoba genome has only the whole-genome triplication (γ) shared among eudicots and no recent duplications. These genomic resources coupled with extensive transcriptome, proteome, and lipidome data helped to define heterogeneous pathways and machinery for lipid synthesis and storage, provided missing evolutionary history information for this taxonomically segregated dioecious plant species, and will support efforts to improve the agronomic properties of jojoba.

Electroresponse of weak polyelectrolyte brushes

Abstract End-tethered polyelectrolytes are widely used to modify substrate properties, particularly for lubrication or wetting. External stimuli, such as pH, salt concentration, or an electric field, can induce profound structural responses in weak polyelectrolyte brushes, which can be utilized to further tune substrate properties. We study the structure and electroresponsiveness of weak polyacid brushes using an inhomogeneous theory that incorporates both electrostatic and chain connectivity correlations at the Debye–Hückel level. Our calculation shows that a weak polyacid brush swells under the application of a negative applied potential, in agreement with recent experimental observation. We rationalize this behavior using a scaling argument that accounts for the effect of the surface charge. We also show that the swelling behavior has a direct influence on the differential capacitance, which can be modulated by the solvent quality, pH, and salt concentration. Graphical Abstract

Data for Evaluation of 1,2-Diacyl-3-Acetyl Triacylglycerol Production in Yarrowia lipolytica

Plants produce many high-value oleochemical molecules. While oil-crop agriculture is performed at industrial scales, suitable land is not available to meet global oleochemical demand. Worse, establishing new oil-crop farms often comes with the environmental cost of tropical deforestation. The field of metabolic engineering offers tools to transplant oleochemical metabolism into tractable hosts while simultaneously providing access to molecules produced by non-agricultural plants. Here, we evaluate strategies for rewiring metabolism in the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to synthesize a foreign lipid, 3-acetyl-1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol (acTAG). Oils made up of acTAG have a reduced viscosity and melting point relative to traditional triacylglycerol oils making them attractive as low-grade diesels, lubricants, and emulsifiers. This manuscript describes a metabolic engineering study that established acTAG production at g/L scale, exploration of the impact of lipid bodies on acTAG titer, and a techno-economic analysis that establishes the performance benchmarks required for microbial acTAG production to be economically feasible.

Data for Catalyst and Reactor Design Considerations for Selective Production of Acids by Oxidative Cleavage of Alkenes with H2O2

Oxidative cleavage of alkenes and unsaturated fatty acids with hydrogen peroxide gives an efficient and sustainable process to obtain mono- and di-acids for polymers and lubricants with fewer safety risks and less environmental impact than processes that utilize ozone or other inorganic oxidizers (e.g., permanganate, dichromate, etc.). Guided by insight into the mechanisms for competing reaction pathways (i.e., epoxidation of alkene on W–(η2-O2) complexes vs. H2O2 decomposition) and the apparent kinetics derived from kinetic experiments, here, we postulate that W-based heterogeneous catalysts can provide high performance and stable operations at low H2O2 concentrations. Semi-batch reactors with continuous introduction of H2O2 solutions offer the means to maintain low H2O2 concentrations while providing sufficient quantities of H2O2 to satisfy the reaction stoichiometry. We derived simple kinetic model equations for the epoxidation, ring-opening, oxidative cleavage, and oxidation steps and fit theses equations to batch experimental data to obtain kinetic parameters. This kinetic model describes the concentration profiles of reactant, oxidant, and products well as shown by agreement with experimental data. Further predictions of the optimal H2O2 feed rate for semi-batch operation utilized by the proposed rate expressions and the reactor design equations suggest that low H2O2 feed rate increases selectivity towards oxidative cleavage products and selective use of H2O2 for oxidative cleavage pathway. Comparisons of oxidative cleavage of 4-octene in batch and semi-batch reactors show that semi-batch reactors with optimized molar feed rates of H2O2 increased oxidative cleavage product selectivities (76% to 99%; with an increase in butyric acid selectivity from 1% to 55%) and H2O2 selectivity (3% to 30%). In addition, semi-batch reaction conditions used avoid H2O2-mediated dissolution of W-atoms from the catalyst. Analysis of these findings suggest that solid oxide catalysts will be effective for continuous oxidative cleavage reactions if deployed within fixed-bed reactors that allow for distributed introduction of reactants and therefore low in situ concentrations of H2O2.

Discovery of AMPX Thermal Scattering Law Processing Issue for Solid Moderators

The 2020 edition of The International Criticality Safety Benchmark Evaluation Project (ICSBEP) Handbook includes a newly produced plastic-moderated evaluation, identified as PU-MET-MIXED-002 and referred to as PMM002. The 2021 edition should include another new plastic-moderated experiment, HEU-MET-THERM-004, referred to as HMT-004. These evaluations are of particular interest, as PMM-002 is moderated with polyethylene, and HMT-004 is moderated with polymethyl methacrylate (Lucite), allowing for investigation of the differences in the thermal scattering laws (TSLs) available for these materials. ENDF/B-VIII.0 includes newly produced data for 1 H-based scattering materials, including Lucite and yttrium hydride. Other available 1 H TSLs include polyethylene, light water, zirconium hydride. The unbound 1 H (free-gas) cross sections were also used. ENDF/B-VIII.0 also includes revisions made to the ENDF/B-VII.1 light water and polyethylene evaluations. Zirconium hydride was unchanged from ENDF/B-VII.1. As of this writing, there are no benchmarks included in the Verified, Archived Library of Inputs and Data (VALID) that are primarily moderated with any solid moderator, so validation that includes the PMM-002 and HMT-004 evaluations would expand the coverage to two new moderators. A study was undertaken at Oak Ridge National Laboratory with two purposes: to provide validation data based on systems that are primarily moderated with polyethylene and Lucite, and to demonstrate the reactivity changes that can result from use of different 1 H TSLs in these plastic-moderated systems. The first objective was mainly to test data and code for SCALE and AMPX, whereas the second objective was to provide useful data for practitioners on the potential variability of predicted $k_{eff}$ based on TSL changes. The use of an exactly correct TSL is often not possible given the materials involved (e.g., lubricants), but this study was intended to provide some indication of the magnitude of the changes among similar materials that can manifest through application of different TSLs in hydrogenous systems over a range of different neutron energy spectra. Unfortunately, the nominal $k_{eff}$ results exposed deviations between SCALE and Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP). Some of the results using different TSLs were also unexpected and difficult to explain. An investigation revealed a processing issue in AMPX that was caused by an ambiguous description of the data for incoherent elastic scattering in the ENDF manual. This issue is discussed in detail in a SCALE User Notification, and it affects some solid moderators, but it does not apply to 1 H bound in water. This issue highlights the importance of validating all TSLs used in safety analysis calculations. The remainder of this paper provides a more detailed examination of the results that triggered the investigation and a summary of the findings of that investigation.

Scale and Regionality of Nonelectric Markets for U.S. Nuclear Light Water Reactors

This study assesses existing and potential industries that could conceivably be directly coupled to existing nuclear reactors. The goal is to identify the scale, location, and accessibility of the candidate industrial-product markets, as well as process feedstocks that are available near the plants to establish new industries. For example, CO 2 as a feedstock can be combined with H 2 to produce formic acid (FA), transportation fuels, and lubricants. These new plants can be entirely supported with the heat and electricity provided by a nearby NPP. The potential demand for nonelectric industrial products was assessed by documenting current and possible growth of nonelectricity product markets considered. This assessment used DOE- and industry-supported tools, data, and projections to capture regional industrial market opportunities. Electricity-capacity markets that reward large and reliable generators, such as NPPs, were considered because the electricity market will likely continue to be an important revenue source to NPPs. The key is to balance the needs of energy customers so as to optimize revenue for the affiliated energy customers or partners. In most cases, flexible plant energy delivery and power generation for the grid will require either energy storage or a stock of intermediate products to sustain the industrial customers when the NPP dispatches electricity to the grid. A diverse mix of temperate regions with operating NPPs around the U.S.—representing a variety of operating markets, local generation mix, and seasonal climates—were chosen for this market study. Both current and future market opportunities for candidate industrial-product markets surrounding these NPPs were studied. Figure 2 illustrates the regions chosen for this study. The success of developing nonelectric industrial-product markets as alternative revenue-generating sources for LWRs depends, not only on demand from growing existing markets, such as petroleum refining and NH 3 production, but also on the development of new markets such as light-duty (LD) and heavy-duty (HD) hydrogen FCEVs, synfuels, chemical production, biofuels, metal refining, injection of hydrogen into NG pipelines for gas power-generating units, FA, polymers, and close-coupled industrial heat applications, all of which can significantly increase demand relative to current levels while decarbonizing energy sectors. This study also presents a sample analysis of the economics of hydrogen production in an area of Minnesota, considering the capital and operating costs of a hydrogen plant as well as the local market demand for hydrogen. It includes some assumptions on electricity-grid pricing, showing how hydrogen could be integrated with an NPP and be competitive with the incumbent hydrogen-production process, steam methane reforming (SMR). The objectives of this study include: Provide U.S. NPP operators a robust sampling of the market demand location, scale, and accessibility (including storage and transportation) of the wide variety of industrial-product choices that can be produced using nuclear thermal energy and electricity proximate to a subset of U.S. NPPs to inform the industry of the potential opportunity; show examples and trade-off analyses of how U.S. LWR operators can access these markets, including storage and transportation of industrial products to their intended markets; and present a general analysis example for one industrial product (hydrogen) in one region (Minnesota area), including production, storage, and transportation, to show how nuclear-hybrid integrated energy systems (IESs) could access local markets and improve the profitability of an NPP.

Literature Review on the Theory and Measurement of Dry Sliding Friction of Metals

Understanding the friction behavior between two sliding bodies can inform the design of machines, processing of materials, and simulation of dynamic processes. Kinetic friction is a complex phenomenon that depends on a multitude of factors such as sliding velocity, normal force, contact area, surface roughness, material properties, lubrication conditions, and thermal effects. This literature review covers the major known effects of sliding velocity, normal load, and surface roughness on the measured kinetic friction coefficient in the context of microscopic friction phenomena. Classic macroscale friction models are reviewed to illustrate approaches for simulating friction behavior. Prominent experimental friction setups within the literature are discussed with respect to achievable velocity and pressure regimes. The background information gathered here will be used to inform experimental procedures and modeling strategies of the exploratory research (ER) project titled “Measurement of Dynamic Friction via Kolsky Bar” (20200418ER).

Enabling Lean and Stoichiometric Gasoline Direct Injection Engines through Mitigation of Nanoparticle Emissions

This project had the objective to efficiently reduce particulate mass (PM) and particulate number (PN) from lean and stoichiometric gasoline direction injection engines used in light duty vehicle applications. It also sought to use suspended particle instruments to measure the effective density, illustrating a pathway for new methods for accurately measuring soot mass at low concentration. The three-year effort took a systems level approach to evaluate fuel and lubricant impacts on GDI soot formation in lean and stoichiometric operation and to evaluate the impact of these factors on soot filtration aftertreatment in three-way catalyst-coated gasoline particulate filters (GPFs).

High Toughness Cermets for Molten Salt Pumps

Concentrated Solar Power plants using nitrate salts used cantilevered pump designs to avoid use of bearings in the 565°C salt; however, this necessitated the use of a sump that added additional cost, complexity, and thermal losses. Sump systems had their own complications, including risk of flooding the sump due to control issues either with level indicators or failures in the control valve responsible for filling the sump. Long-shafted pumps were developed and tested, and they outline the need to develop journal sleeves and bearings for new salt systems. Based on reports, pumps will need to be a vertical single- or multi-stage type, mounted to the roof of the molten salt tanks. Design and service for molten salt pumps above 550°C is relatively limited, and at temperatures up to 750°C there is no available design or service experience. Long-shaft pumps that extend to the bottom of the thermal energy storage tank will require bearing materials that are suitable to the given salt chemistry. Lubricity of proposed salts is unclear and need to be determined, especially for cold-tank pumps that require multi-stages for lifting the salt to the top of the tower. Materials, design, and maintenance are all major unknowns.

Controlling Structural, Electronic, and Energy Flow Dynamics of Catalytic Processes through Tailored Nanostructures

MoS 2 (molybdenum disulfide) is a highly-versatile catalyst material for support of numerous reactions from hydrodesulfurization and denitrogenation to the focus of this renewal proposal: hydrogenation of CO/CO 2 towards (higher) alcohols. At the same time, MoS 2 is a non-toxic, environmentally-benign and rather inert material- which under ambient conditions for some time has served as a lubricant and, more recently, as next-generation electronic material. The apparent contrast between inertness and stability in ambient, and catalytic activity under reactive conditions is puzzling and calls for a synergistic theoretical and experimental investigation with the long-term objective of enabling the rational design of MoS 2 -based catalysts for alcohol-formation reactions by providing a microscopic understanding of the environmental factors that determines site activity and selectivity. Our research project seeks answers to the questions (a) what conformation does MoS 2 adopt under reaction conditions (as opposed to that under ultrahigh vacuum and low temperatures)?; (b) what reaction pathways exist on such a material?; (c) how can the local environment of the active sites be manipulated so as to make MoS 2 an efficient catalyst for production of higher alcohol from syngas? In particular, research strategies will explore how the basal plane composed of sulfur atoms can be activated so as to exhibit a reactivity of its own, by addressing three research targets and building on extensive preliminary and enabling work: (1) vacancies and vacancy aggregates on the basal plane; (2) non-local catalyst transformation through alkali doping, hydrogenation and phase transition; (3) fabrication of a metal-nanoparticle-activated MoS 2 system, in which particle anchoring, reactive sites and pathways as well as selectivity are controlled by design, as an example of predictive development of a catalyst material,. All strategies are directed to improve the efficacy of the key reactive sites and selectivity of chemical pathways by design, to replace the inefficient methodology of trial and error in catalyst development. This research project represents a synergistic combination of computational guidance, foundational surface-science-based experiments and validation under reactive conditions that aims at transformative new insights into the working of MoS 2 -based hydrogenation-catalysts, a topic squarely at the center of the interest of DOE BES. Guided and led by Talat Rahman, a computational physicist, this project will apply density functional theory to understand structure, reaction pathways and chemical potentials associated with MoS 2 -based CO/CO 2 hydrogenation, augmented by kinetic Monte Carlo methods for reaction rates and prefactors as well as ab-initio molecular dynamics for evaluation of thermal stability. Complementary experimental input and validation will originate from co-PI Ludwig Bartels, a physical chemist and materials scientist, whose group focuses on local imaging and preparation of MoS 2 materials, from co-PI Peter Dowben, an experimental physicist, whose group is expert in the spectroscopy of occupied and unoccupied electronic states, and from senior collaborator Michael White of Brookhaven National Laboratory, whose group generates high-resolution electronic and activity information on size-selected well-defined metal chalcogenide clusters. This collaborative effort will enable a comprehensive understanding of the correlation of structural integrity and catalytic activity of MoS 2 in forms ranging from extended films to individual particles with known geometries and binding sites. Alcohol formation from syngas is a rapidly emerging application that has great potential through facile, economic, and decentralized biomass gasification. CO 2 activation is one of the most pressing concerns of our time: increasing CO 2 levels in the atmosphere change the climate and expose the globe to environmental transformations with the potential for enormous economic and societal impact. We will investigate CO/CO 2 hydrogenation via an interdisciplinary research collaboration with established synergy – one that, in accordance with the mission of the DOE, involves accredited Hispanic-Serving Institutions and that, through student exchange with international collaborators and National Labs, will directly benefit a broad spectrum of communities and generate human resources in sciences essential to their future.

Pseudo-Hot-Isostatic Pressing (P-HIP)

Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory developed a technology to produce high performance ceramic or metal with a combination of major key properties such as versatile-complicated shape, high density, uniform density distribution, and minimal amounts of starting material. The novel pseudo-hot-isostatic-pressing (P-HIP) uses graphite or boron nitride flakes as the stress transmission media to transmit stress instead of the conventional solid graphite punch. The graphite and boron nitride flakes are solid lubricants and can slide among one another to re-distribute the stress from high stress concentration area to the low stress concentration areas, resulting in a self-stress-relief action. This innovative P-HIP enables the manufacturing of complicated shapes with near-net-shape capability while minimizing the energy used and reducing waste. This is a revolutionary breakthrough to the ceramics and powder metallurgy industries.

Development of High Temperature (>700°C) molten Salt Pump Technology for Gen3 Solar Power Tower Systems

Generation 3 Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) Systems require thermal energy storage that can efficiently receive solar heat and deliver it to a working fluid at temperatures greater than 700°C. For liquid systems, the thermal transfer fluid must be phase stable over large temperature ranges. High temperature molten salts meet this criteria, but are difficult liquids to handle. The high heat and salt content can be very corrosive to several different materials that are wetted by the liquid salt. For power tower collectors, the molten salt must be pumped under high pressure to the top of the collector tower. These pumps have impellers and shafts as part of their rotating elements, and under load, require bearings to control shaft movement while rotating. These high temperature pumps require submerged bearings, and thus bearing materials that can withstand the temperature and molten salt contact over long periods of time. This is essential for keeping pump maintenance costs low, and downtime to a minimum. Long running bearing materials is an enabling technology for integrated liquid systems in Generation 3 CSP Systems. Keeping costs low and systems reliable are critical for the broad adoption of Gen 3 CSP Systems. Hayward Tyler, Inc (HTI) proposed development of journal bearing materials for use in vertical pumps designed for pumping high temperature molten salt on both the hot and cold sides of the solar power tower. To complete this objective, HTI utilized the testing capabilities of Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and High Temperature System Design (HTSD). Materials would first be selected for static corrosion testing, then downselected for tribological testing. Successful tribologically tested materials would then be downselected for use in additional test regimes. Ten samples were selected for static corrosion testing. Three passed the static testing regime. Two of these materials were downselected for ball material in tribological testing against three metallic alloys: Sintered Y2O3 Partially Stabilized Zirconia YTZP and Silicon Nitride, Grade 147-31N. HTI also proposed collecting data from a thorough bearing test regime using a test rig designed and built as part of this project, and also a conceptual design for a high temperature molten salt vertical pump. HTI withdrew from the project prior to completion of this work and this report reflects only the work completed prior to withdrawal. The completed work produced two papers, one manuscript submitted for publication, and one paper published in the journal Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells. The papers are: “Tribological behavior of ceramic-alloy bearing contacts in molten salt lubrication for concentrating solar power” and “Material Selection and Corrosion Studies Of Candidate Bearing Materials For Use In Molten Chloride Salt."

Adrian Portales Coop Internship Report

Using the thesis of W.R. Nolan (cite) as a guide, Cobalt Iron (CoFe) powders were reacted with 0.1 wt.% and 0.2 wt.% phosphoric acid in a 20:1 ratio of acetone to phosphoric acid. The powders were then dried at room temperature. The resulting phosphate coated CoFe was then mixed with 0.75 wt.% of the lubricant N,N' ethylene bis-stearamide (trade name: Acrawax C) and hot pressed to form a consolidated soft magnetic material referred to as CoFeP. With an avenue of synthesis for CoFeP determined, a proper amount of stock was synthesized for continuous “brick” production. While under current optimization, these 1x1 mm magnetic bricks will ultimately be placed and secured along the inside wall of each MK Magnetics transformer core by an appropriate CoFeP dispersed epoxy. As of now each brick has been produced though a pressing and annealing process via square 2x2 cm die. Before a brick is made a pressure calculation is run to ensure the dies maximum operating pressure is not exceeded. Figure 1. ensures the user’s safety by showing that the tons-on-ram required for a 2x2 cm square die to reach 760 MPa is below the point of die failure.

Tritium Producing Burnable Absorber Rod (TPBAR) Cutterhead Test Report

The Tritium Extraction Facility (TEF) Target Rod Preparation (TRP) Tritium Producing Burnable Absorber Rod (TPBAR) Cutterhead is a specialized remote tubing cutter used to breach TPBARs (approximately 0.381 inch outside diameter x 0.336 inch inside diameter 316 stainless steel tubing). The cutterhead was originally designed by an external engineering firm - RTS Wright Industries. The bearing housing and drive plate, the main drive components, are designed to be fabricated from Nitronic 60, an anti-galling stainless steel, and coated with Dicronite® (Tungsten Disulfide) lubricating coating. These parts have galled after a limited number of cycles, damaging the fine 3.25-32 UN threads which drive the system. In some cases, destructive sectioning is required to remove the failed parts from the cutterhead. Cutterheads have been fabricated by multiple machine shops, with some cutterheads failing very quickly and some lasting more than 1,000 cuts. In 2019, Emery Corporation, now Toner Machining Technologies (TMT) was contracted to fabricate four (4) new complete sets of cutterheads. The newly fabricated cutterheads have not been able to pass the required acceptance test without the bearing housing and drive plate threads galling. TMT has tried multiple sets of Nitronic 60 bearing housing and drive plates; all have galled after less than 10 cuts.
