Technologist in Residence for Advanced Manufacturing and Materials in Unconventional Oil and Gas Equipment and Infrastructure

The DOE Technologist in Residence (TIR) program pairs a senior technical staff member from a National Laboratory (Lab Technologist), and a senior technical staff member(s) from a clean energy manufacturing company or consortium of companies (Industry Technologist). Each technologist may represent single or multiple national laboratories, or single or multiple companies. These pairs of Lab and industry technologists work together for a period of 18 to 24 months to accomplish several goals: 1) Identify the participating company’s (or companies’) technical priorities and challenges, and the resources and capabilities in DOE’s National Laboratories that may be highly suitable to address them; 2) Propose collaborative R&D efforts to develop science-based solutions to the company’s (or companies’) most strategic scientific, technological, and business issues; and 3) Develop a general framework agreement and begin developing specific scopes of work for the proposed collaborative R&D efforts. The proposed R&D will then take place outside of the program and will not use TIR program funds. Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and Pioneer Natural Resources were awarded a TIR project by DOE in late 2016 and the CRADA component of the project was initiated in 2017. This report describes work performed under the CRADA agreement between 2017 and 2020.

Manufacturability Advancement of Low-Temperature Titanium Electroplating Methods

Three tasks were proposed for this work. All three were completed. The tasks were as follows: Task 1: A larger plating system will be purchased for process scale-up. TiF 3 will be tested as the metal precursor in an effort to reduce water sensitivity of the process. Task 2: Ti on steel samples will be created at PNNL and shipped to Atlas Technologies. Atlas Technologies will diffusion bond the samples to aluminum and test the bond strength. The results will be reported to PNNL. Task 3: Investigation into DOE mission relevant Ti and Zr alloys and demonstration on larger scale work pieces.

Summary: Nuclear Energy Critical Material Waste Reduction and Supply Chain Solutions Enabled by Advanced Manufacturing

In September 2020, the U.S. government issued an executive order to address the threat to the domestic supply chain from its reliance on critical minerals (CMs) from foreign competitors and to support the domestic mining and processing industry. A national strategy on CMs with impact on the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) vision for 2021–2031 was developed. This vision embraces science and technology to re-establish U.S. competitiveness in the CM and material supply chains by (a) scientific innovation and technologies to ensure resilient and secure CMs and maintain a domestic material supply chain, (b) building a long-term minerals and materials innovation ecosystem to foster new capabilities to mitigate CM supply chain challenges, (c) increasing private sector adoption for sustaining the domestic CM supply chain, and (d) coordinating with international partners and federal agencies to diversify global supply chains and ensure the adoption of best practices for sustainable mining and processing (DOE 2021).
