Metrics for quantifying the efficiency of atmospheric CO 2 reduction by marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR)

Abstract Marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) is gaining interest as a tool to meet global climate goals. Because the response of the ocean–atmosphere system to mCDR takes years to centuries, modeling is required to assess the impact of mCDR on atmospheric CO 2 reduction. Here, we use a coupled ocean–atmosphere model to quantify the atmospheric CO 2 reduction in response to a CDR perturbation. We define two metrics to characterize the atmospheric CO 2 response to both instantaneous ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) and direct air capture (DAC): the cumulative additionality ( α ) measures the reduction in atmospheric CO 2 relative to the magnitude of the CDR perturbation, while the relative efficiency ( ϵ ) quantifies the cumulative additionality of mCDR relative to that of DAC. For DAC, α is 100% immediately following CDR deployment, but declines to roughly 50% by 100 years post-deployment as the ocean degasses CO 2 in response to the removal of carbon from the atmosphere. For instantaneous OAE, α is zero initially and reaches a maximum of 40%–90% several years to decades later, depending on regional CO 2 equilibration rates and ocean circulation processes. The global mean ϵ approaches 100% after 40 years, showing that instantaneous OAE is nearly as effective as DAC after several decades. However, there are significant geographic variations, with ϵ approaching 100% most rapidly in the low latitudes while ϵ stays well under 100% for decades to centuries near deep and intermediate water formation sites. These metrics provide a quantitative framework for evaluating sequestration timescales and carbon market valuation that can be applied to any mCDR strategy.

Optimization-Based Model Reduction Scheme for Renewable Energy Power Plants Using Standardized Testing Scenarios

This paper presents an optimization-based model reduction scheme for renewable energy (RE) power plants consisting of inverter-based resources (IBRs) operating in grid-following (GFL) or grid-forming (GFM) modes. More importantly, the datasets feeding the optimization-based model reduction scheme are generated and re-used through the standardized grid-interactive testing scenarios. Particularly, the proposed scheme makes use of the power plant point of common coupling (PCC) measurements of various quantities specified by standardized tests (e.g., voltage and frequency ride through) as per IEEE 2800, to estimate the parameters of the reduced-order model such that its dynamic performance aligns with the original detailed power plant model. The proposed model reduction approach does not require the parameters of individual IBRs and using standardized test data as input to the formulated optimization problem simplifies the reduced-order modelling scheme. Extensive case studies following standardized test scenarios verified the remarkable accuracy of the proposed approach.

Effects of Rolling Reduction on Critical Current Density and Microstructure of Bi-2212 Wires

Bi-2212 Rutherford cables have been fabricated into flat racetrack coils and canted-cosine-theta dipole magnets. The performance gap between the magnets made with Rutherford cables and the “short-sample-limit” is about 30%. To better understand the influence of Rutherford cable processing on the strand performance, we studied three Bi-2212 wires with filament architectures of 37 × 18 and 55 × 18 and diameters of 0.8 and 1.0 mm. To simulate the deformation caused by cabling process, the three wires were rolled with thickness reductions ranging from 10% to 30%. The aspect ratios of rolled strands are between 1.29 and 2.05. The low aspect-ratio wire is also an interesting form for fabricating solenoid coils with higher packing density. The round and rolled strands were heat-treated under 50 bar and with maximum heat treatment temperatures of 885.5 °C and 890.5 °C. The rolling deformation reduced filament size uniformity, resulting in filament merging in fully heat-treated wires. It was found that rolling reduction reduced wire critical current density (JE) by 16 to 18%, but the JE decrease saturated at 15 to 20% of the thickness reduction. It is believed that the reduced JE results from the filament merging caused by rolling and non-uniform shrinking during overpressure heat treatment.

Expanded Diversity of Microbial Groups Capable of Anaerobic Pyrite Reduction and Assimilation of Dissolution Products

Pyrite, the most abundant iron sulfide mineral in the Earth's crust, has traditionally been considered as a sink for iron and sulfur in the absence of oxygen. Recent research, however, has shown that anaerobic methanogenic archaea can reductively dissolve pyrite and assimilate its products as sources of iron and sulfur. This study explores whether other anaerobic bacteria, including fermentative, nitrate-, iron oxide-, fumarate-, and sulfate-respiring bacteria, can also reduce pyrite and use its dissolution products as sources of iron and sulfur. Results indicate that heterotrophic bacteria respiring fumarate or sulfate, or fermenting organic carbon, can reduce pyrite and assimilate released iron and sulfur. In contrast, nitrate- or iron oxide-respiring cells did not reduce pyrite, suggesting that microbial pyrite reduction is metabolism-specific. All strains capable of reducing pyrite could also use mackinawite as an iron and sulfur source. With the exception of fermentative Bacteroides, strains did not require direct contact with pyrite to reduce the mineral, indicating extracellular electron transfer via electron shuttles. These findings expand the known diversity of microbial groups capable of pyrite reduction and highlight the mineral's lability in various anaerobic environments, with potential implications for the biogeochemical cycles of iron, sulfur, carbon, and oxygen.

A comparison of ceramic and carbon-based reductants for vitrification of low-activity waste

Sucrose is the current baseline additive at the Hanford Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant in Washington, USA to control foaming during waste feed to glass transitions and the redox state of the glass melt. Alternative reductants are being investigated to alleviate strain on effluent treatment from toxic acetonitrile production from incomplete combustion of sucrose. This study evaluates ceramic additive options including B4C, B6Si, SiC and VB2 in simulated low-activity waste feed, as well as coke dust, probing the feed volume expansion during melting as well as the gas evolution. All alternative reductant options examined significantly reduced acetonitrile production, however there was variability in their effectiveness as foam-reducing agents. VB2 and coke at the appropriate ratios were similarly effective as sucrose in controlling both foam volume and glass redox state, but with considerably less acetonitrile production. B4C, B6Si and SiC showed more promising foam control and very little acetonitrile production, however all of the final glasses were over reduced, i.e., Fe2+/FeT = 0.5. These alternative reductant studies provide operational flexibility to the operation of the vitrification plant, as well as options for alternative raw materials in industrial glass melting.

Cooled Spray Technology for Particulate Reduction in a Heavy-Duty Engine

Cooled spray (CS) technology passively reduces particulate matter (PM) emissions from diesel engines compared to non-CS-equipped diesel engines. CS inserts are mounted near the injector nozzle and control mixing so that the fuel and air can premix while limiting combustion near fuel-rich zones, thereby reducing the formation of particulate matter. CS components contain no moving parts and could be installed as a retrofit or built into new engines. However, CS technology is early in its development, and further investigations are needed to understand the overall performance implications and practicality of the technology. In this paper, we investigate several important aspects of CS, providing a clearer picture of some challenges and potential benefits of CS. Two alignment techniques are used to characterize measurement ease and bias, namely, an optical alignment and spray-plug impact alignment. While the optical technique facilitates alignment more easily, a bias was measured between the optical and spray-plug techniques, suggesting the optical technique may have insufficient accuracy without additional corrections. We also evaluate the engine performance of a well-aligned and poorly aligned CS insert, compared to the baseline configuration. The poorly aligned insert shows slower combustion than the baseline and mixed overall performance. However, the well-aligned insert shows faster combustion than the baseline and PM emission reduction at most operating conditions, with some conditions showing PM reduction up to 80%. Furthermore, the results of this paper highlight the alignment challenges of CS technology as well as the potential PM reduction benefit of the technology.

From genes to function: regulation, maturation, and evolution of cytochrome c nitrite reductase in nitrate reduction to ammonium

ABSTRACT The dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium pathway converts nitrate to ammonium, a vital reaction in the global nitrogen cycle. The second step of the pathway is performed by cytochromecnitrite reductase (NrfA), a soluble, periplasmic cytochrome responsible for the reduction of nitrite to ammonium. The pentaheme NrfA catalyzes this six-electron and eight-proton reduction of nitrite at a single active site with the help of its quinol oxidase partners. In this review, we discuss our current understanding of (i) the structure, homology, and evolution of both NrfA and its redox partners, (ii) the regulation of thenrfoperon, and (iii) the maturation of NrfA proteins via unique cytochrome maturation pathways.

Multi-technique characterization of iron reduction by an Antarctic Shewanella : an analog system for putative Martian biosignature identification

ABSTRACT Microbes from terrestrial extreme environments enable testing of biosignature production in conditions relevant to astrobiological targets. Mars, which was likely more conducive to life during early warmer and wetter epochs, has inspired missions that search for signs of early life in the surficial rock record, including mineral or organic biosignatures. Microbial iron reduction is a common and ancient metabolism that may have also operated on other rocky celestial bodies. To investigate biosignature production during iron reduction, aShewanellasp. (strain BF02_Schw) isolated from a subglacial discharge known as Blood Falls, Antarctica, was incubated with the electron acceptor ferrihydrite (Fh). Biosignatures associated with Fh reduction were identified using a suite of techniques currently utilized or proposed for Mars missions, including X-ray diffraction and infrared, Mössbauer, and Raman spectroscopy. The biotic origin of features was validated by transcriptional changes observed between treatments with and without Fh and comparison to killed controls. In live treatments, Fh was reduced to magnetite and goethite, both detected in Martian lacustrine basins. Several soluble and volatile metabolites were also detected, including riboflavin and dimethyl sulfide (DMS), which could be astrobiological indicators of active microbial processes. While none of the identified biosignatures individually would serve as definitive proof of life (past or present), detecting concomitant features associated with known terrestrial biotic processes would provide compelling rationale for more targeted life detection missions. Terrestrial extremophiles can support the exploration of astrobiologically relevant microbial processes, validation of life detection instrumentation, and potentially the discovery of new biomarkers. IMPORTANCE Culture-based experiments with terrestrial extremophiles can elucidate biosignatures that may be analogous to those produced under extraterrestrial conditions, and thus inform sampling and technology strategies for future missions. Here, we demonstrate the production of several biosignatures under iron-reducing conditions byShewanellasp. BF02_Schw, originally isolated from an Antarctic analog feature. These biosignatures could be detectable using flight-ready instrumentation. Growth experiments with terrestrial extremophiles can identify biosignatures measurable by current methodologies and inform the development and optimization of techniques for detecting extant or extinct life on other worlds.

Kinetic Model of HoxEFU reduction by NADH [SWR-26-087]

This repository is used to release code generated for manuscripts on the Photosynthetic Energy Transduction core program. This code simulates the reduction of HoxEFU by NADH. The electro transfer rate constants for the simulation are specified in the .csv files. The two .csv files correspond tot he two models described in Dawson et al. Cell. Rep. Phys. Sci. 2026. The code utilizes a chemical master equation, a set of differential equations, defining the time evolution of the oxidation and reduction kinetics of NAD+, NADH, a FMN flavin, and a set of iron sulfur clusters. The kinetics of HoxEFU reduction by NADH are evaluated by numerical integration of the chemical master equation using a variable-time-step Runge-Kutta algorithm.

Data for Wilson and Megonigal (2025), "Nitrate reduction across soils transitioning from coastal forest to wetland are hotspots for denitrification"

Sea level rise drives spatial migration of coastal ecosystems and can lead to the accelerated replacement of coastal forests with tidal wetlands. Soil biogeochemical cycles in steady-state upland and wetland ecosystems are well studied, but pathways and rates in rapidly changing ecosystems are largely unconstrained. Wilson and Megonigal (2025) performed a one-time sampling and a subsequent incubation experiment, and characterized the reduction of reactive nitrogen (N) via denitrification and dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonia. Sampling was done at four sites where coastal deciduous forest is undergoing ecosystem state change and becoming wetland throughout the Chesapeake Bay, USA. The COMPASS-FME project (http://compass.pnnl.gov) established the sites sampled in this study in 2022–2023.This dataset consists of:* Isotope-labeled incubation results comparing nitrate reduction rates across transects spanning upland, transition, and wetland; and* Ancillary porewater chemistry data.All files in this dataset are plain text, comma-separated value (CSV), and no special software is required to read them.

Assessing the Impacts of CO 2 Reduction and Utilization Technologies on Regional Freshwater Resources

This work, a product of the Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO)-supported multi-lab CO 2 Reduction and Upgrading for e-Fuels Consortium (CO 2 RUe), focuses on advanced research and development and cross-cutting evaluation of environmental, economic, and social sustainability for CO 2 reduction and upgrading for fuels and chemicals. The Consortium develops and de-risks advanced technologies that use renewable electricity to convert CO 2 into e-fuels and commodity chemicals. One key aspect of environmental sustainability consideration is water resources. This report summarizes a three-year study that analyzed the impacts of water consumption in select CO 2 reduction and utilization technologies in two future scenarios using a pair of water indices—water availability index and water stress footprint. The analyses also account for projected electricity grid mixes and their water withdrawal and water consumption demand in grid regions. The work identifies drivers, challenges, and critical areas in water sustainability, along with valuable insights into technological and regional factors. The study also explores the potential of using non-traditional water resources to reduce water stress and increase availability. These findings are intended to support industry stakeholders and BETO with the knowledge needed for informed decision-making, contributing to strategies to mitigate risks associated with the implementation of CO 2 utilization technologies.

Data-Driven Supervised Dimension Reduction for Scientific Discovery (LDRD QTI Report)

This report summarizes the findings of a four months FY24 Advanced Science & Technology (AS&T) LDRD Quick Targeted Investigation (QTI) project focused on the exploration of supervised dimension reduction approaches based on autoencoders. Autoencoders have been extensively employed in literature for unsupervised learning tasks, however, their use for supervised regression tasks, which are common within scientific applications, has been limited. Motivated by linear dimension reduction strategies like Active Subspaces and Adaptive Basis, we explored the possibility of employing autoencoders to discover a non-linear manifold able to represent the original function in fewer dimensions. In this report, we discuss a neural network architecture and we perform a numerical campaign on several problems ranging from simple two-dimensional functions to a model problem for magnetohydrodynamics in five dimensions. In our preliminary results, we show that the proposed approach is found to be superior to linear dimension reduction strategies in representing the target function even with a single latent variable.

Probing the Sustainable Reduction of CO 2 , N 2 and NO 3 to Fuels and Chemicals using Non-Traditional Porphyrinoid Catalysts

For the last several decades, numerous strategies have been proposed to be able to interconvert electricity and commodity fuels for transportation and other applications. Even as solar and wind energy become more widely available, these renewable energy sources are not always available where the population is most dense or during peak times of energy demand. One plausible solution to the issue of electricity storage and transport is to use electricity to drive the formation of high-energy compounds and chemical fuels. As a result, the electrochemical conversion of CO 2 into chemical fuels has received major attention as a multi-pronged approach for electricity coversion, storage, and transport. Similar strategies are also attractive for conversion of N 2 and NO x into value added compounds such as ammonia. Metalloporphyrin and metallocorrole complexes are comprised of aromatic tetrapyrrole scaffolds and have been extensively studied as homogeneous catalysts for critical catalytic processes like the electrochemical CO 2 reduction reaction (eCO 2 RR) to generate CO as feedstock for the Fischer–Tropsch process to generate a variety of hydrocarbons as chemical fuels. Despite their significance and impact, efficiently driving such catalytic reduction processes is challenging for multiple reasons. Such processes require multiple-electron transfer events, as opposed to single-electron redox chemistry that forms high-energy singly-reduced intermediates. In addition, these electron transfer events must be coupled to proton-transfer steps and avoid application of high overpotentials where proton (H + ) reduction to generate H 2 (as well as other side-reactions) can lower the selectivity and energy efficiency of the eCO 2 RR process. Certain Fe(III) aromatic tetrapyrroles (e.g., porphyrins and corroles) have been reported to overcome these challenges, but are often difficult to synthesize and modify, and have a tendency to support single-electron redox chemistry at the metal as opposed to multielectron redox involving the ligand and metal in concert. Other families of tetrapyrroles in which all four meso-carbons are reduced (i.e., sp 3 -hybridized) are also known in the literature. These non-aromatic tetrapyrroles are known as porphyrinogens and support multi-electron redox chemistry which has been elaborated by several groups, prompting researchers to consider whether these scaffolds may improve the kinetics and efficiencies of multi-electron steps attendant to activation of thermodynamically stable small-molecule substrates such as CO 2 , N 2 , NO 3 − , and NO 2 − . Although porphyrinogens support multi-electron redox properties, the four sp 3 -hybridized meso-carbons inherent to the tetrapyrrole core completely disrupt π-conjugation between pyrrolic units, which compromises the photochemical properties of porphyrinogens in comparison to that of traditional porphyrinoids. Moreover, the highly reducing nature of porphyrinogens predisposes these platforms to extreme air and water sensitivity. Accordingly, such metalated porphyrinogens are often pyrophoric and/or incompatible with many common organic solvents (CH 2 Cl 2 , CHCl 3 , CH 3 CN, EtOAc, etc.). Hence, reports of efficient small-molecule activation or catalysis supported by porphyrinogens have been limited. To overcome the instability of porphyrinogens while retaining the scaffold’s attractive multi-electron redox properties, we have directed attention to establishing less-well studied groups of non-aromatic tetrapyrroles (i.e., phlorins, biladienes, and isocorroles). These non-traditional tetrapyrroles each contain just a single sp 3 -hybridized meso-carbon, which ablates the platforms aromaticity but still provides an extended π-framework. In addition to developing innovative platforms that may be used to sustainably generate value-added chemicals, fuels, and ammonia via either photo- or electrocatalytic approaches our work also has significantly broadened our understanding of how to prepare and modulate the properties of non-aromatic tetrapyrroles for other applications. Our efforts entailed a synergistic partnership and active collaborations with Drs. David C. Grills and Mehmed Z. Ertem (both of Brookhaven National Lab) to better characterize isocorroles (and related non-aromatic tetrapyrroles) using a variety of advanced spectroscopic and theoretical methods. Our combined efforts have shown that the combination of properties that isocorroles (and related tetrapyrroles) provide results in good chemical stability paired with unique redox and photochemical characteristics that are not typically supported by simple and/or unadorned aromatic tetrapyrroles. Beside redox chemistry, the photochemistry of isocorroles and other non-aromatic tetrapyrroles containing one sp 3 -hybridized meso-carbon is also appealing due to their absorption in the long-visible to near-IR regions, which are essential for photocatalysis and related applications that benefit from direct excitation at these wavelengths. The results reported vastly improve our understanding of non-aromatic tetrapyrrole synthesis, properties and utility for activation of small molecule substrates such as O 2 and CO 2 in the presence of weak cationic organic acids.

A Zero-Emission Process for Direct Reduction of Iron by Hydrogen Plasma in a Rotary Kiln Reactor

This project’s goal was to demonstrate a hydrogen plasma (H-plasma)-rotary kiln process for reducing iron ore to iron as part of the steel manufacturing process. The H-plasma provides a greater thermodynamic driving force for reducing iron ores than thermal processes such as the DRI process, enabling lower reaction temperatures. We estimated that our process technology can reduce energy consumption by 45% compared to the blast furnace process and ~15% compared to the DRI process. Steel manufacturing produces about 1.8 tons of CO2/ton of steel with iron ore reduction accounting for about one-third of the CO2 produced in the overall manufacturing process. We estimated our process has the potential to reduce GHG emissions from ironmaking by 35% with today’s grid and by up to 88% with a future low-carbon grid while being cost competitive with the current blast furnace route. We demonstrated reduction of hematite and magnetite rich materials at temperatures from 600 to 800°C. We achieved 90-95% metallization on 100 gr samples in batch reduction experiments in the H-plasma rotary kiln furnace at 600-650°C. Attempts to perform tests in a continuous operation mode identified problems with the ore feed mechanism. We identified solutions but there was not time nor budget to correct these for this project

Reaction Diffusion Modelling of 3D Pillar Electrodes in Single-Catalyst CO 2 Reduction Cascades

Effective electrochemical CO 2 reduction to liquid fuels requires that the local catalytic environment facilitates the desired reactivity, yet a microscopic understanding of this environment is difficult to achieve from experiment alone. In this work, a 3D reaction-diffusion model was developed to explore the effects of electrode surface area and local geometry on the performance of a heterogeneous catalyst that performs a two-step CO 2 reduction cascade reaction to CO and then CH 3 OH under aqueous conditions. Kinetic parameters for the model were inspired by experimental results using a cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) catalyst. Three-dimensional architectures composed of arrays of square pillars with varying dimensions and either smooth or periodically modulated surfaces were tested, revealing the extent to which geometry modulates the performance of the cascade reactions. Although structural variations modulate local concentration gradients, we find that electrochemically active surface area predominantly governs the overall cascade reaction. Moreover, the results suggest that supersaturation of CO, with concentrations up to ten-fold higher than the equilibrium solubility limit, might be critical for more efficient conversion to CH 3 OH. For any given geometry, the spatially averaged ratio of [CO] to [CO 2 ] is dictated by the electrochemically active surface area and determines the yield of CH 3 OH. For a fixed surface area, geometries that spatially confine the electrolyte yield moderate local [CO] to [CO 2 ] ratios within small volumes. In contrast, less confining geometries result in a broader distribution of local ratios spread over larger volumes, with both configurations yielding the same spatially averaged [CO] to [CO 2 ] ratio. These insights provide valuable design principles—highlighting the critical importance of surface area and possibly CO supersaturation—for engineering advanced electrode architectures that leverage intermediate trapping and CO supersaturation to enhance overall performance in tandem CO 2 reduction systems.

Biomass Resources and Emission Reduction Potential of Agricultural and Livestock Residues in Mainland China from 2013 to 2022

Controlling carbon emissions is a global goal, and China is actively implementing carbon reduction measures. As a major agricultural nation, China has considerable potential for developing agricultural residues as renewable and environmentally friendly biomass energy. In this study, we obtained data on crop yields, crop-to-grain ratios, and livestock excretion coefficients to calculate the biomass resources of agricultural and livestock residues in Chinese provinces from 2013 to 2022. Crop residue biomass resources showed a distribution pattern with higher levels in the north than in the south and the east than in the west. Henan and Heilongjiang provinces consistently had the highest resource levels, exceeding 35 million tons annually for 10 years. The biomass resources from livestock residues were relatively abundant in Sichuan, Henan, Yunnan, Shandong, Hunan, and Inner Mongolia. Inner Mongolia, Sichuan, Shandong, and Henan had the greatest potential for CO2 emission reductions, primarily located in regions abundant in biomass resources and with high traditional energy consumption levels. ArcGIS was used to apply natural break classification to categorize the potential for emission reductions from agricultural and livestock residues across China from 2013 to 2022 into five classes. Based on factors such as crop planting area and livestock numbers, the spatiotemporal distribution of factors influencing the quantity of biomass resources was examined using Geographically and Temporally Weighted Regression. A tailored and integrated approach should be used for biomass, and the development of biomass energy should be promoted through policy support and technological innovation.
