Mineralization of alkaline waste for CCUS

Ex-situ mineralization processes leverage the reaction of alkaline materials with CO 2 to form solid carbonate minerals for carbon capture, utilization, and storage. Annually, enough alkaline waste is generated to reduce global CO 2 emissions by a significant percentage via mineralization. However, while the reaction is thermodynamically favorable and occurs spontaneously, it is kinetically limited. Thus, a number of techniques have emerged to increase the efficiency of mineralization to achieve a scalable process. In this review, we discuss mineralization of waste streams with significant potential to scale to high levels of CO 2 sequestration. Focus is placed on the effect of operating parameters on carbonation kinetics and efficiency, methods, cost, and current scale of technologies.

Probing Sensitivity of Discharge Characteristics to Model Selection using Uncertainty Quantification in an aprotic Li-Oxygen Battery

Currently, there are several models in the literature, such as kinetic models, microstructural models, and mass transport models that describe a Li-air battery's discharge behavior. Many of these models are calibrated and tested at low current densities and cannot be easily transferred to high current densities. Even at low current densities, there is no quantitative method for a researcher to choose a reaction kinetic model such as classical Butler-Volmer and its derivatives, and modified Marcus-Hush-Chidsey, a resistance model for lithium peroxide such as electron transport via tunneling or linear resistivity, a surface coverage model (lithium peroxide growth) such as partial coverage or full coverage, and mass transport model (discussed in Ref. [1]). Also, it is time-consuming to test different models at high current density (1C) due to a lack of well-tested models and well-calibrated model parameters. For this presentation, we will develop an analytical model, which acts as a surrogate model for a sophisticated finite element model to predict discharge time and discharge voltage. Next, we use an uncertainty quantifying technique called reduced-order stochastic optimization [2, 3] to determine the uncertainty in model parameters for rate kinetics, lithium peroxide resistivity, and parasitic resistance. Finally, a finite element simulation is performed to determine the error introduced by the surrogate model and its influence on the uncertainty in the model parameters.

Amine Functionalized Electrospun Cellulose Nanofibers for Fluoride Adsorption from Drinking Water

In this study, we synthesized amine functionalized cellulose nanofiber based adsorbent for effective removal of dissolved fluoride ions from groundwater samples. Cellulose acetate was electrospun into nanofibers followed by deacetylation to yield cellulose nanofibers which were then treated with ethylenediamine to prepare amine functionalized cellulose fabric to be used as an adsorbent. As- synthesized adsorbent was first characterized by scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy for physiochemical characteristics. Fluoride adsorption studies were then carried out under batch mode to study the influence of various parameters on adsorption process. Amine functionalized cellulose nanofibrous mat was found to be effective with high adsorption efficiency for removal of fluoride ions from aqueous solution, even at low fluoride concentrations (< 5 mg L{sup −1}). Adsorption mechanism of fluoride onto prepared cellulose nanofibers based adsorbent was explained from the studies of isotherms, kinetic and thermodynamic parameters. Field studies conducted using this amine functionalized cellulose nanofibrous mat revealed the suitability and effectiveness of adsorbent for fluoride removal from contaminated groundwater.

Estimating Arrhenius parameters using temperature programmed molecular dynamics

Kinetic rates at different temperatures and the associated Arrhenius parameters, whenever Arrhenius law is obeyed, are efficiently estimated by applying maximum likelihood analysis to waiting times collected using the temperature programmed molecular dynamics method. When transitions involving many activated pathways are available in the dataset, their rates may be calculated using the same collection of waiting times. Arrhenius behaviour is ascertained by comparing rates at the sampled temperatures with ones from the Arrhenius expression. Three prototype systems with corrugated energy landscapes, namely, solvated alanine dipeptide, diffusion at the metal-solvent interphase, and lithium diffusion in silicon, are studied to highlight various aspects of the method. The method becomes particularly appealing when the Arrhenius parameters can be used to find rates at low temperatures where transitions are rare. Systematic coarse-graining of states can further extend the time scales accessible to the method. Good estimates for the rate parameters are obtained with 500-1000 waiting times.

Corrosion Electrochemistry of Chromium in Molten FLiNaK Salt at 600 °C

The manuscript revisits the corrosion behavior of pure Cr in molten FLiNaK salt at 600 °C from the perspective of corrosion electrochemistry. In this work, the potential-dependent, rate-limiting charge-transfer, and salt film-mediated mass-transport controlled regimes of Cr corrosion in FLiNaK at 600 °C are investigated. The kinetic and thermodynamic parameters that limit electrodissolution and the consideration of grain orientation on these regimes are elucidated. At low Cr(III) concentrations, the corrosion process is governed by charge transfer control at low overpotentials and is crystal orientation dependent. However, when Cr(III) concentrations are high or when there is a high overpotential, the formation of a metal fluoride salt film on the Cr surface shifts the kinetic behavior to be governed by mass transport control at all anodic potentials with a surface morphology controlled by salt film deposition location and identity. Evan’s diagrams were developed to consolidate and elucidate these observations. These findings were supported by an examination of the post-corrosion microstructure, X-ray diffraction of solidified salts, and thermo-kinetics analysis in each corrosion regime.

Fundamentals of the Plasma Sail Concept: MHD and Kinetic Studies

The Mini-Magnetospheric Plasma Propulsion (M2P2), originally proposed by Winglee et al. [2000] predicts that a 15-km standoff distance (or 20-km cross-sectional dimension) of the magnetic bubble will provide for sufficient momentum transfer from the solar wind to accelerate a spacecraft to the unprecedented speeds of 50-80 km/s after an acceleration period of about three months. Such velocities will enable travel out of the solar system in period of about seven years-almost an order of magnitude improvement over present chemical based propulsion systems. However, for the parameters of the simulation of Winglee et al. [2000], a fluid model for the interaction of M2P2 with the solar wind is not valid. It is assumed in the MHD fluid model, normally applied to planetary magnetospheres, that the characteristic scale-size is much greater than the Larmor radius and ion skin depth of the solar wind. In the case of M2P2, the size of the magnetic bubble is actually less than or, comparable to, the scale of these characteristic parameters. Therefore, a kinetic approach, which addresses the small-scale physical mechanisms, must be used. We have adopted a two-component approach to determining a preliminary estimate of the momentum transfer to the plasma sail. The first component is a self-consistent MHD simulation of the small-scale expansion phase of the magnetic bubble. The fluid treatment is valid to roughly 5 km from the source and the steady-state MHD solution at the 5 km boundary was then used as initial conditions for the hybrid simulation. The hybrid simulations showed that the momentum transfer to the innermost regions of the plasma sail is negligible.

Structural transformation of dusty plasma crystal in dc discharge plasma by changing confinement ring bias

We report an experimental study of the structural transition of a stable complex plasma crystal to a solid-liquid phase coexistence by the controlled adjustment of the confinement potential, while keeping all other parameters constant. The experiments are carried out on a tabletop linear dusty plasma experimental device, which consists of a circular powered electrode and an extended grounded cathode plate. A stationary crystal of melamine formaldehyde particles is formed in a background of argon plasma inside a confining ring that is isolated from the cathode by a ceramic cover. The stable crystal structure breaks in the core region and transitions to a coexistent state by carefully changing the confining potential, thereby modifying the sheath structure. The transition is confirmed by evaluating the variation in different characteristic parameters such as the pair correlation function, local bond order parameter, and dust kinetic temperature as a function of confining bias potential. It is found that melting in the core is due to the onset of dust fluctuations in the layers beneath the topmost layer, which grow in amplitude as the confining bias potential is reduced below a threshold value. The present technique of changing confinement provides a unique feature to study structural transitions of plasma crystals without affecting the overall plasma parameters.

Kinetics and Mechanisms of Calcite Reactions with Saline Waters

Project Description: The general objective of the proposed research is to determine the kinetics and mechanisms of calcite reactions with saline waters over a wide range of saline water composition, pCO 2 , and modest ranges in T and P. This will be accomplished by studying both reaction rates and solubility from changes in solution chemistry, and making nanoscale observations of calcite precipitate surface morphology and composition at the micro-to-nano-scale to provide an understanding of controlling reaction mechanisms and pathways. The specific objectives necessary to reach the general objective are: a) determination of how pCO 2 , Ca 2+ , ionic strength and “foreign” ions influence reaction rates; and b) investigate the influence of these parameters on apparent kinetic solubility from dissolution and precipitation reactions. This information will clearly be central to the construction of reliable reaction-transport models to predict reservoir and formation response to increased CO 2 in saline waters. This program was initially collaborative with John Morse at Texas A&M, however his passing shortly after the beginning of this program resulted in abbreviated research time and effort. Summary of Results: Early studies using electron microscopy and spectroscopy indicated that carbonate precipitation from natural seawater (NSW) conditions onto aragonite substrates was mediated by a surface amorphous calcium carbonate layer. It was hypothesized that this ACC layer (observed after < 5days reaction time) was responsible for the abnormal reaction kinetics and also served as a metastable seed layer for growth of epitaxial aragonite. Further studies of the ACC formation mechanism indicated a strong dependence on the Mg concentration in solution. Subsequent studies at shorter times (10 hrs) on calcite substrates and in a wide range of supersaturation conditions did not indicate any ACC layer. Instead, an epitaxial layer by layer growth mechanism was confirmed by grazing incidence X-ray diffraction, µ-Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and electron diffraction. Extended time studies out to 45 days confirmed the epitaxial relationship of the overgrowth layer with the substrate. Under NSW conditions, overgrowths were found to have ~0.4 to 0.8 nm / hr growth rates and accommodating 4 at% Mg, resulting in a highly strained overgrowth layer. Following the initial layer by layer growth mechanism, the growth changes to Stranski-Krastanov type after a critical thickness of approximately 100 nm.

The role of collisional energy transfer in the thermal and prompt dissociation of 1-methyl allyl

Collisional energy transfer plays a pivotal role in a-priori calculations of the pressure-dependent rate constants obtained from a master equation. However, accurate determinations of collisional energy transfer parameters are rare and so most kinetic studies rely on best-fits of these parameters to experimental measurements (if available) or estimates guided from literature studies. In this work, we have quantified the effect of the uncertainty in energy transfer parameters on the thermal and prompt dissociation kinetics of a resonance stabilized radical, 1-methyl allyl (1MA), of relevance to the combustion of 1- and 2-butene isomers. Simulations using literature kinetics models were performed to assess the impact of these uncertainties on flame propagation and speciation data in laminar flames of 1- and 2-butene. Analyses of the uncertainty propagated by the energy transfer parameters for 1MA dissociation to the flame simulations, in particular the laminar flame speed, indicate an intricate coupling between the kinetics of 1MA dissociation (chain propagation) and its reaction with H-atoms (chain-termination). Ab-initio based theoretical calculations were also performed to obtain pressure-dependent kinetics for the reaction of 1MA with H-atoms. Lastly, theoretically calculated energy transfer parameters were used to best characterize the kinetics and branching between the chain propagating 1MA dissociation and the chain-terminating reaction 1MA + H.

Fine-tuning the release of molecular guests from mesoporous silicas by controlling the orientation and mobility of surface phenyl substituents

Phenyl-functionalized mesoporous silica materials were used to explore the effect of non-covalent interactions on the release of Ibuprofen into simulated body fluid. Variations in orientation and conformational mobility of the surface phenyl groups were introduced by selecting different structural precursors: a rigid upright orientation was obtained using phenyl groups directly bound to surface Si atoms (Ph-MSN), mobile groups were produced by using ethylene linkers to connect phenyl groups to the surface (PhEt-MSN), and groups co-planar to the surface were obtained by synthesizing a phenylene-bridged periodic mesoporous organosilica (Ph-PMO). The Ibuprofen release profiles from these materials and non-functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) were analyzed using an adsorption-diffusion model. The model provided kinetic and thermodynamic parameters that evidenced fundamental differences in drug-surface interactions between the materials. All phenyl-bearing materials show lower Ibuprofen initial release rates than bare MSN. The conformationally locked Ph-MSN and Ph-PMO have stronger interactions with the drug (negative ΔG of adsorption) than the flexible PhEt-MSN and bare MSN (positive ΔG of adsorption). These differences in strength of adsorption are consistent with differences between interaction geometries obtained from DFT calculations. B3LYP-D3-optimized models show that π-π interactions contribute more to drug adsorption than H-bonding with silanol groups. Here, the results suggest that the type and geometry of interactions control the kinetics and extent of drug release, and should therefore serve as a guide to design new drug delivery systems with precise release behaviors customized to any desired target.

Benchmarking magnetised three-wave coupling for laser backscattering: analytic solutions and kinetic simulations

Understanding magnetised laser–plasma interactions is important for controlling magneto-inertial fusion experiments and developing magnetically assisted radiation and particle sources. For nanosecond pulses at non-relativistic intensities, interactions are dominated by coherent three-wave interactions, whose nonlinear coupling coefficients became known only recently when waves propagate at oblique angles with the magnetic field. In this paper, backscattering coupling coefficients predicted by warm-fluid theory are benchmarked using particle-in-cell simulations in one spatial dimension, and excellent agreements are found for a wide range of plasma temperatures, magnetic field strengths and laser propagation angles, when the interactions are mediated by electron-dominant hybrid waves. Systematic comparisons between theory and simulations are made possible by a rigorous protocol. On the theory side, the initial boundary value problem of linearised three-wave equations is solved, and the transient-time solutions allow the effects of growth and damping to be distinguished. On the simulation side, parameters are carefully chosen and calibration runs are performed to ensure that comparisons are well controlled. Fitting simulation data to analytical solutions yields numerical growth rates that match theory predictions within error bars. Although warm-fluid theory is found to be valid for a wide parameter range, genuine kinetic effects have also been observed.

A wide range experimental study and further development of a kinetic model describing propane oxidation

This work presents an experimental and kinetic modeling study of propane oxidation. Ignition delay times of propane were measured in a high-pressure shock tube and in rapid compression machines in the temperature range 689 - 1700 K at equivalence ratios of 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 in 'air', for a wide range of pressures from 20 to 90 bar. CO and H 2 O mole fraction profiles for propane oxidation were measured in a shock tube behind reflected shock waves in the temperature range 1370-1840 K at equivalence ratios of 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 and at a pressure of approximately 1.3 atm. Moreover, propane oxidation was studied using a jet-stirred reactor coupled to a synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet photoionization mass spectrometer at low temperatures in the range 565 - 690 K and at a pressure of 1 atm. Further, this wide range of experimental datasets for propane oxidation was used to reoptimize and update our previous kinetic mechanisms, AramcoMech3.0 and NUIGMech1.1. In the current mechanism, NUIGMech1.3, the thermo-chemical parameters of all species relevant to low-temperature propane oxidation chemistry, including propyl-peroxyl, hydroperoxyl-propyl, hydroperoxyl-propyl-peroxyl, and carbonyl-hydroperoxide radicals, are updated based on newly calculated values at the CCSD(T)-F12/TZ-F12//B2PLYPD3/TZ///B2PLYP-D3/TZ level of theory. The improvements made in the thermochemical values and in the kinetic parameters for the low-temperature propane oxidation reactions in NUIGMech1.3 result in better model agreement with the new IDTs and speciation data, including carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, propene, acetaldehyde and various minor products such as ethylene, acetic acid, acrolein as well as various hydroperoxide and cyclic ether species.

Chemical Modeling of the Capture of Radioiodine Species

Iodine is a common fission product resulting from the transmutation of uranium fuel in nuclear power reactors. The short-lived radioactive isotope, 131 I, with a half-life of around eight days, would be a particular health concern if released into the environment. Capture materials, such as activated carbon, are used routinely in nuclear power plants and medical isotope production facilities to remove this hazard during normal operations to reduce emissions to acceptable levels. Iodine, unlike other common fission products such as noble gases, is challenging because of the wide range of molecular forms and oxidation states (from +VII in IF 7 to -I in iodide) that it displays, which can interconvert both in the gas phase and in the solution phase for example. The work in this project is focused on three computational tasks. In the first, we consider the binding of iodine-containing molecules of varying oxidation states to the major component of activated carbon – pristine graphene-like sheets. The second task focused on molecular binding and possible chemical transformations resulting from the reaction of molecular iodine with chemical functional groups on the edge of the graphene sheets or surface defects in the sheet itself. The final task was associated with radiolytic breakdown of 131 I to 131 Xe in iodine containing molecules and investigated the resulting molecular fragmentation process both in the gas phase and on the graphene-like surface. For each of the tasks, the intent was to learn about the thermodynamics and kinetics of the chemical transformations and use the calculations to provide parameters for input into kinetic models describing these processes for interpretation of experimental data in future work.

Laser-to-proton conversion efficiency studies for proton fast ignition

We assess the conversion efficiency from intense picosecond laser pulses to multi-MeV ion beams for a wide range of laser and target parameters, using 2D kinetic particle-in-cell simulations. Scalings are addressed in a quasi-one-dimensional geometry, leaving out beam divergence. Then, we study the conversion efficiency into a narrow spatial band along the laser axis for flat and hemispherical targets in large-scale 2D simulations. Combining these findings allows us to calculate the energy requirements for ignition of a compressed ICF target with an intense proton beam in a fast-ignition scenario.

High-Temperature Reaction Kinetics of the e aq – and HO 2 • Radicals with Iron(II) Ions in Aqueous Solutions

Pulsed electron radiolysis was used to determine the chemical reaction kinetics and Arrhenius parameters for iron(II) reactions in aqueous solutions under irradiation. The second-order Fe 2+ reactions with the hydrated electron (e aq – ) and the perhydroxyl radical (HO 2 • ), arising from water radiolysis, were measured to high temperatures using custom-built flow-through cells with a multichannel optical detection system. The reaction with the HO 2 • radical was found to proceed via the formation of a metal-ion adduct species, Fe 2+ –HO 2 • . Additionally, the adduct’s molar extinction coefficient and its first-order decay rate coefficients are reported.

CaMn 0.9 Ti 0.1 O 3 based redox catalysts for chemical looping – Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane: Effects of Na 2 MoO 4 promoter and degree of reduction on the reaction kinetics

Reduction kinetics and stability of 20 wt% Na 2 MoO 4 -promoted CaMn 0.9 Ti 0.1 O 3 were investigated for its applications in Chemical Looping – Oxidative Dehydrogenation (CL-ODH) of ethane, a potential alternative for ethylene production with higher efficiency and lower emissions. Here, the present work reports a kinetics model and parameters for a Na 2 MoO 4 -promoted, Ti-doped CaMnO 3 (CaMn 0.9 Ti 0.1 O 3 ) redox catalyst under H 2 and C 2 H 4 . A first-order reaction model provides the best fit for the reduction of Na 2 MoO 4 /CaMn 0.9 Ti 0.1 O 3 under H 2 , while the C 2 H 4 reduction is well described by an Avrami–Erofe’ev model. The activation energy for C 2 H 4 oxidation is approximately three times higher than that for H 2 conversion, showing that the activation of C 2 H 4 is significantly more difficult on the surface of the redox catalyst. The reduction rate of Na 2 MoO 4 /CaMn 0.9 Ti 0.1 O 3 under H 2 at 750 °C is more than two orders of magnitude greater than that under C 2 H 4 , while the reduction rate of unpromoted CaMn 0.9 Ti 0.1 O 3 is comparable under H 2 and C 2 H 4 , showing that the addition of Na 2 MoO 4 effectively suppresses C 2 H 4 combustion relative to H 2 oxidation. The kinetics results for Na 2 MoO 4 /CaMn 0.9 Ti 0.1 O 3 confirm its excellent selectivity towards hydrogen combustion, making it a promising candidate under CL-ODH. Additionally, the stability of the CaMn 0.9 Ti 0.1 O 3 @ Na 2 MoO 4 core-shell structure, which was the underlying reason for the excellent selectivity, was examined under both shallow and deep reductions. It was determined that deep reduction of the redox catalyst, e.g. higher than 80% solid conversion, would lead to loss of sodium and hence to decreased selectivity for hydrogen combustion. In contrast, the core-shell structure was well-maintained, exhibiting excellent performance after 50 redox cycles when deep reduction of the redox catalyst was avoided. This study offers a basis for both the CL-ODH reactor design and redox catalyst optimizations.

Mitigation of Molten Salt Corrosion

The desire to increase the peak operational temperature of Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) plants to lower the levelized cost of CSP-derived electricity, has led to consideration of an earth-abundant, low-cost, thermally-stable, molten MgCl 2 -KCl-NaCl (40-40-20 mole%) salt for high-temperature thermal energy storage and heat transfer. The reliable, long-term containment of such a molten salt is challenging, however, due to the corrosion of cost-effective, high-temperature structural metal alloys in this salt (particularly if this salt is contaminated with oxygen-bearing species). This project has been focused on: i) development of equipment for evaluating corrosion kinetics in molten chlorides under well-controlled thermal, fluid dynamic, and atmospheric conditions at CSP-relevant temperatures, ii) use of such equipment to evaluate the influence of forced convection on corrosion kinetics (to determine the role of liquid phase diffusion on such corrosion), and iii) identifying a corrosion-mitigation strategy that can be industrially applied to achieve a projected annual corrosion ≤30 μm at CSP-relevant temperatures. The overall goals of this project have been: i) to understand the rate-limiting step(s) and associated kinetic laws governing corrosion in molten chlorides at 750°C, ii) to determine key operational parameters affecting the corrosion kinetics in molten salts, and iii) to demonstrate the tailoring of such parameters to appreciably reduce such corrosion.
