Impact of feed variability on cesium removal with multiple actual waste samples from the Hanford site

Here, the Tank Side Cesium Removal (TSCR) system, under development by Washington River Protection Solutions (WRPS), will send initial low-activity Hanford waste tank supernate feeds to the Hanford Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant (WTP) Low-Activity Waste (LAW) Facility. In addition to entrained solids removal from the supernate, the primary goal of TSCR is to remove cesium-137 ( 137 Cs) by ion exchange, allowing contact handling of the liquid effluent product at WTP. Crystalline silicotitanate (CST) ion exchange media, manufactured by Honeywell UOP (product IONSIV™ R9140-B), was selected as the ion exchange media at TSCR. This lot of material was found to have superior performance in comparison to historic batches of CST. Ion exchange column and batch contact testing with supernate from Hanford tanks AP-105, AP-107 and AW-102 was performed to assess the impact of feed variability on system performance. These tests demonstrated that batch contact measurements provide a reasonable prediction of column capacities with some deviation in performance attributed to column dynamics. In addition, the variability in CST capacity for cesium in the various actual waste samples does not track with historical understanding of the competing cations, suggesting that tank waste samples contain other components that may significantly impact cesium loading.

A point defect model for nickel electrode structures

The Raman spectra for nickel electrode active mass indicate a single formula-unit crystallographic unit cell of the layered NiOOH-type. Empirical stoichiometric formulas require that extensive point defects, cation dopants and nickel vacancies, be incorporated on nickel sites. Structural differences between the alpha/gamma and beta/beta cycles, and the influence of cobalt addition on the structure will be discussed in terms of the point defect model. Other empirical data supporting the point defect model will be considered.

Controlling Cation-Cation Interactions in Uranyl Coordination Dimers by Varying the Length of the Dicarboxylate Linker

The chemistry of linear uranyl(V/VI) dioxo cations, [O yl –U–O yl ] +/2+ , is dominated by coordination of uranium in the equatorial plane. Effects of this constraint were evaluated by experiment and theory for gas-phase mixed-valence U V/VI coordination dimers in which uranyl moieties are linked by alkyl dicarboxylates, [(UO 2 + )(UO 2 2+ )(OOC-(CH 2 ) n-2 -COO 2– ) 2 ] – (n = 3–12). Faster O 2 -addition to dimers with short linkers n = 3 and 4, vs. n ≥ 5, suggests a structural difference. Computed structures with the shortest linkers have bridging dicarboxylates and nearly parallel, non-interacting uranyls. Longer linkers, n = 5–7, accommodate uranyl orientations with distinct U V –U VI end-on cation-cation interactions (CCIs), whereby Lewis base O yl from U V coordinates to the acid U VI , denoted as U V O yl ···U VI . The dimer structure for n = 8 has a U V –U VI side-on diamond-shape CCI, with U V O yl ···U VI and U VI O yl ···U V interactions. Addition of O 2 to the n = 4 and 5 dimers yields [(UO22+)2(OOC-(CH2)n-2-COO2–)2(O2–)]–, with U V oxidized to U VI and O 2 reduced to O 2 – . Whereas O 2 can associate to and oxidize the exposed U V center for dimers with n = 3 and 4, the more crowded U V site in the CCI structures inhibits O 2 addition. Finally, the results demonstrate rational structural control of uranyl-uranyl bonding and reactivity in small coordination complexes.

Interplay of Open-Shell Spin-Coupling and Jahn–Teller Distortion in Benzene Radical Cation Probed by X-ray Spectroscopy

Here we report a theoretical investigation and elucidation of the X-ray absorption spectra of neutral benzene and of the benzene cation. The generation of the cation by multiphoton ultraviolet (UV) ionization and the measurement of the carbon K-edge spectra of both species using a table-top high-harmonic generation source are described in the companion experimental paper. We show that the 1sC → π transition serves as a sensitive signature of the transient cation formation, as it occurs outside of the spectral window of the parent neutral species. Moreover, the presence of the unpaired (spectator) electron in the π-subshell of the cation and the high symmetry of the system result in significant differences relative to neutral benzene in the spectral features associated with the 1sC → π* transitions. High-level calculations using equation-of-motion coupled-cluster theory provide the interpretation of the experimental spectra and insight into the electronic structure of benzene and its cation. The prominent split structure of the 1sC → π* band of the cation is attributed to the interplay between the coupling of the core → π* excitation with the unpaired electron in the π-subshell and the Jahn–Teller distortion. The calculations attribute most of the splitting (~1–1.2 eV) to the spin coupling, which is visible already at the Franck–Condon structure, and we estimate the additional splitting due to structural relaxation to be around ~0.1–0.2 eV. These results suggest that X-ray absorption with increased resolution might be able to disentangle electronic and structural aspects of the Jahn–Teller effect in the benzene cation.

Influence of Cation Size on the Local Atomic Structure and Electronic Properties of Ta Perovskite Oxynitrides

Partial anion substitution in transition metal oxides provides rich opportunities to control and tune physical and chemical properties, for example, combining the merits of oxides and nitrides. In addition, the possibility of resulting anion sublattice order provides a means to target polar and chiral structures based on a wide array of accessible structural archetypes by design. Here, in this work, we investigate the local structures of a family of perovskite tantalum oxynitrides—ATaO 2 N (A = Ba, Sr, and Ca)—using a combination of experimental and theoretical approaches including neutron total scattering, density functional theory (DFT), and ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations. We present the first experimental study of chemical short-range order (CSRO) in CaTaO 2 N, confirming local cis N ordering of the anion sub-lattice. Our systematic exploration of a local structure across the A cation size series (from the larger Ba to the smaller Ca) reveals a perovskite motif increasingly distorted with respect to long-range average structures. DFT and AIMD simulations support the observed trends. Overall, structures with cis ordering of the nitrogen anions in each TaO 4 N 2 octahedron are favored over those with trans ordering. With diminishing A cation size, local cis ordering and Ta off-centering play decreasing roles in overall lattice stability, overshadowed by the stabilizing effects of octahedral tilting. The influence of these factors on local dipole formation and frustrated dipole ordering are discussed.

NaGaS 2 - an Elusive Layered Compound with Dynamic Water Absorption and Wide-Ranging Ion Exchange Properties

Most ternary sulfides belonging to the MGaS 2 structure-type have been known for many years and are well-characterized. Surprisingly, there have been no reports of the NaGaS 2 composition, which contains Na, a monovalent cation slightly larger in size than Li, found in LiGaS 2 , a compound known for its non-linear optical properties. Herein we demonstrate for the first time that the unique reversible water absorption in NaGaS 2 has resulted in its absence from the literature due to the difficulties that one encounters when characterizing this compound by SC XRD. The layered structure of this compound coupled with uniquely easy migration of water molecules between the layers allows for ion exchange with 3d and 5f metal cations. We established that some cations, e.g. Ni 2+ , facilitate exfoliation of the layers, providing a facile synthetic route to a new class of 2D chalcogenide materials and, in addition, demonstrating that NaGaS 2 can readily uptake uranyl species from aqueous solutions.

Photodriven Ammonia Synthesis from Manganese Nitrides: Photophysics and Mechanistic Investigations

Ammonia synthesis from N,N,O,O-supported manganese(V) nitrides and 9,10-dihydroacridine using proton-coupled electron transfer and visible light irradiation in the absence of precious metal photocatalysts is described. While the reactivity of the nitride correlated with increased absorption of blue light, excited-state lifetimes determined by transient absorption were on the order of picoseconds. Furthermore, this eliminated excited-state manganese nitrides as responsible for bimolecular N–H bond formation. Spectroscopic measurements on the hydrogen source, dihydroacridine, demonstrated that photooxidation of 9,10-dihydroacridine was necessary for productive ammonia synthesis. Transient absorption and pulse radiolysis data for dihydroacridine provided evidence for the presence of intermediates with weak E–H bonds, including the dihydroacridinium radical cation and both isomers of the monohydroacridine radical, but notably these intermediates were unreactive toward hydrogen atom transfer and net N–H bond formation. Additional optimization of the reaction conditions using higher photon flux resulted in higher rates of the ammonia production from the manganese(V) nitrides due to increased activation of the dihydroacridine.

Ultrafast pre-solvated dodecane hole capture and subsequent damage of used nuclear fuel extraction ligands DEHBA, DEH i BA, HONTA, CMPO, HEH[EHP] and TBP

Here, two classes of used nuclear fuel (UNF) extraction ligands, amide (DEHBA, DEH i BA, HONTA) and organophosphorus (CMPO, HEH[EHP], TBP), were selected to study radiation induced damage at picosecond to nanosecond timescale using electron pulse radiolysis in n-dodecane (DD) and supported by quantum chemical calculations. Spectra after radiolysis of 200 mM extraction ligands were recorded in DD/0.3 M DCM. Absorption peaks at 365, 365, 400 and 387 nm in case of DEHBA, DEH i BA, HONTA and CMPO respectively are assigned to triplet excited states. Additional absorption peaks at 420, 460 and 600 nm of DEHBA, DEH i BA and HONTA respectively were identified as due to ligand radical cations. A concentration dependent absorption peak at 600 nm in the case of CMPO was observed and assigned due to a combination of CMPO˙ + , (CMPO) 2 ˙ + and possibly a radical degradation product of CMPO. Weak absorption peaks at 650 and 550 nm in case of HEH[EHP] and TBP were observed and tentatively assigned to their radical cations. A two-component DD˙ + decay in the presence of ligands was observed due to different ligand oxidation mechanisms: ultrafast capture of pre-solvated DD holes and diffusive capture of solvated DD holes. At high extraction ligand concentrations (>100 mM), the majority of DD holes were captured via the ultrafast pre-solvated pathway in <10 ps with C 37 values of 389, 401, 270, 374, 458 and 340 mM for DEHBA, DEHiBA, HONTA, CMPO, HEH[EHP] and TBP respectively. Following ultrafast capture, the remainder of DD holes became solvated and were captured with k = (2.32 ± 0.13), (1.78 ± 0.12), (1.38 ± 0.2), (0.98 ± 0.081), (1.09 ± 0.08) and (1.77 ± 0.046) × 10 10 for DEHBA, DEH i BA, HONTA, CMPO, HEH[EHP] and TBP respectively. Subsequent hole transfer from the extraction ligands˙ + to the low IP solute tri-p-tolylamine (TTA) showed only 4–16% hole transfer, most likely indicating ligand˙ + degradation in 0.9–4.6 ns.

Soil Carbon Dynamics Following Land Use Changes and Conversion to Oil Palm Plantations in Tropical Lowlands Inferred From Radiocarbon

We measured the 14C and 13C isotopic values of soil organic carbon in mineral soil from lowland tropical forests to provide insight into how quickly carbon is turning over in the soil following conversion of primary forests to oil palm plantations. In addition to areas converted to oil palm plantations in Peru, Indonesia, and Cameroon, we examine pastures and secondary forests in Peru as a comparison to the carbon cycling processes operating in the oil palm plantations.This dataset includes radiocarbon (Δ14C) and stable carbon (δ13C) isotopes of soil organic carbon in mineral soils from natural lowland forests and oil palm plantations in Peru, Indonesia, and Cameroon. We additionally examine plots of secondary forests following agricultural use and pastures on cleared natural forest in Peru. In addition to isotopic data, this dataset includes soil carbon and nitrogen concentrations and stock, soil texture (percent sand, silt, and clay), pH, ECEC (effective cation exchange capacity), base saturation, and bulk density. Soils were sampled in 4 depth increments to 100 cm depth.This dataset supports the publication Finstad et al., 2020. Finstad, K., van Straaten, O., Veldkamp, E., & McFarlane, K. (2020).

Functional magnetic microspheres

Functional magnetic particles are formed by dissolving a mucopolysaccharide such as chitosan in acidified aqueous solution containing a mixture of ferrous chloride and ferric chloride. As the pH of the solution is raised magnetite is formed in situ in the solution by raising the pH. The dissolved chitosan is a polyelectrolyte and forms micelles surrounding the granules at pH of 8-9. The chitosan precipitates on the granules to form microspheres containing the magnetic granules. On addition of the microspheres to waste aqueous streams containing dissolved ions, the hydroxyl and amine functionality of the chitosan forms chelates binding heavy metal cations such as lead, copper, and mercury and the chelates in turn bind anions such as nitrate, fluoride, phosphate and borate.

Supramolecular Effects of Alkyl Sulfonates in Silver Nanocrystal Synthesis

While cationic surfactants such as hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) are ubiquitous in the synthesis of noble metal nanocrystals, anionic surfactants are rarely used. This work explores the addition of sodium alkyl sulfonates with chain lengths ranging from one to eight carbons to a silver nanoplatelet reaction. Short-chain sulfonates comprised of one to four carbons show little effect on the nanocrystal synthesis, but alkyl sulfonates comprised of five or more carbons at concentrations above 1 mM have a pronounced effect on the absorbance of the nanocrystals, causing a blueshift in the wavelength of maximum absorbance (λ max ) from approximately 800 to 400 nm as the sulfonate concentration is increased to 7 mM. Higher concentrations of sulfonate result in a subsequent red-shift of the peak. Investigation into the possible formation mechanisms responsible for this synthetic control revealed the absence of sulfonate micelles under the reaction conditions. Instead, we hypothesize that sulfonate bilayers are nucleated around the silver nanocrystals at concentrations below the critical micelle concentration and interact with either the citrate ligands or the silver surface to influence nanocrystal morphology, and thus absorbance. Strikingly, the addition of long-chain alkyl sulfonates to already-synthesized nanocrystals results in similar changes to the nanocrystal absorbance that occur within seconds, providing further support for the proposal that these effects are related to the surface chemistry of the nanocrystals, which appear to be highly dynamic.

Remote chirality transfer in low-dimensional hybrid metal halide semiconductors

In hybrid metal halide perovskites, chiroptical properties typically arise from structural symmetry breaking by incorporating a chiral A-site organic cation within the structure, which may limit the compositional space. Here we demonstrate highly efficient remote chirality transfer where chirality is imposed on an otherwise achiral hybrid metal halide semiconductor by a proximal chiral molecule that is not interspersed as part of the structure yet leads to large circular dichroism dissymmetry factors (g CD ) of up to 10-2. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the transfer of stereochemical information from the chiral proximal molecule to the inorganic framework is mediated by selective interaction with divalent metal cations. Anchoring of the chiral molecule induces a centro-asymmetric distortion, which is discernible up to four inorganic layers into the metal halide lattice. Additionally, this concept is broadly applicable to low-dimensional hybrid metal halides with various dimensionalities (1D and 2D) allowing independent control of the composition and degree of chirality.

An Na/TM-site Mg substituted P2-Na 2/3 [Fe 1/3 Mg 1/12 Mn 7/12 ]O 2 cathode with extremely high capacity for sodium-ion batteries

The anionic redox reaction (ARR) has become a hot topic in battery research due to its ability to provide high energy density. Nevertheless, there are still many issues in Na-based layered oxides with the ARR, such as large voltage hysteresis, lattice oxygen loss, irreversible structural changes, and cation migration in the TM layer, resulting in structural collapse and poor electrochemical performance. Herein, a series of Na 2/3 [Fe 1/3 Mg x Mn 2/3–x ]O 2 cathodes are synthesized using a traditional solid-state reaction method. The effectiveness of Mg substitution amounts and site occupancy in regulating the reversibility of the ARR has been explored using various experimental techniques. Surprisingly, the well-designed Na/TM-site Mg substituted P2-Na 2/3 [Fe 1/3 Mg 1/12 Mn 7/12 ]O 2 exhibits an extremely high initial reversible capacity of ~253.21 mA h g –1 , equivalent to ~0.94 e – transfer, which is contributed by both cationic and anionic redox reactions as confirmed by hard X-ray absorption spectroscopy (hXAS) and soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy (sXAS) analyses. In addition, the improved cycling and high-rate performance of the P2-Na 2/3 [Fe 1/3 Mg 1/12 Mn 7/12 ]O 2 are achieved by a well-maintained crystal structure and the highly reversible anionic redox reaction of O 2– /O n– . Finally, these in-depth studies provide crucial knowledge for the development and understanding of cathode materials with a highly reversible ARR for low-cost and high-energy sodium-ion batteries.

Short- to Intermediate-Range Structure, Transport, and Thermophysical Properties of LiF–NaF–ZrF4 Molten Salts

LiF–NaF–ZrF 4 multicomponent molten salts are identified as promising candidates for coolant salts in molten salt reactors and advanced high-temperature reactors. This study focused on low-melting point salt compositions of interest: 38LiF–51NaF–11ZrF 4 , 42LiF–29NaF–29ZrF 4 , and 26LiF–37NaF–37ZrF 4 . Ab-initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) calculations were performed and compared with available experimental data to assess the ability of rigid ion models (RIM) to reproduce short- to intermediate-range structure, transport, and thermophysical properties of the LiF–NaF–ZrF 4 salt mixtures. It is found that as ZrF 4 mol% increases, the average cation–anion coordination number (CN) of monovalent cations (Li + , Na + ) obtained from RIM calculations decreases, while multivalent Zr 4+ CN varied from 15% to 19% in comparison to corresponding AIMD values. In addition, RIM is found to predict the existence of 7, 8, and 9 coordinated fluorozirconate complexes, while AIMD and the available experimental data showed an occurrence of 6, 7, and 8 coordinated complexes in the melt. The intermediate-range structure analysis revealed that while the RIM parameters are able to reproduce a local structure for lower ZrF 4 mol% salts such as in 38LiF–51NaF–11ZrF 4 , an extensive fluorozirconate network formation is observed in RIM simulations for higher ZrF 4 mol% compositions. The network generated by RIM parameters is found to be mainly connected by “corner-sharing” fluorozirconate complexes as opposed to both “edge-sharing” and “corner-sharing” connectively portrayed by AIMD. It is found that a close agreement between AIMD and the RIM salt structure for the 11-mol% ZrF 4 salt resulted in good agreement in the calculated Zr diffusivities and the viscosity values. However, due to the inaccurate short- to intermediate-range structure prediction by RIM for higher ZrF 4 mol% compositions, thermophysical properties such as densities and heat capacity differ by up to 26% and 27%, respectively, upon comparison with AIMD and experimental values. Also, the network-dominated properties such as diffusion coefficients and viscosities differed by up to two and three orders of magnitude, respectively. This study signifies the importance of accurate salt structure generation for an accurate prediction of transport and thermophysical properties of multicomponent molten salts.

Simulated infrared emission spectra of highly excited polyatomic molecules: a detailed model of the PAH-UIR hypothesis

A detailed description of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)/unidentified infrared band (UIR) mechanism is presented in which experimental spectral bandshape functions are used to simulate IR emission spectra for individual molecules. These spectra are additively superimposed to produce a conglomerate spectrum representative of a family of PAH molecules. Ab initio vibrational frequencies and intensities for nine PAHs (neutral and cationic) as large as ovalene are used in conjunction with measured bandshape and temperature-dependent redshift data to simulate the UIR bands. The calculated spectra of cations provide a closer match to the UIRs than do those of the neutrals. However, the PAH cations used in the simulations fail to reproduce the details of the UIR emission spectra. The discrepancies are potentially alleviated if both larger PAHs and a greater number of PAHs were included in the simulation.

Unconventional Anomalous Hall Effect Driven by Self‐Intercalation in Covalent 2D Magnet Cr 2 Te 3

Covalent 2D magnets such as Cr 2 Te 3 , which feature self-intercalated magnetic cations located between monolayers of transition-metal dichalcogenide material, offer a unique platform for controlling magnetic order and spin texture, enabling new potential applications for spintronic devices. Here, it is demonstrated that the unconventional anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in Cr 2 Te 3 , characterized by additional humps and dips near the coercive field in AHE hysteresis, originates from an intrinsic mechanism dictated by the self-intercalation. This mechanism is distinctly different from previously proposed mechanisms such as topological Hall effect, or two-channel AHE arising from spatial inhomogeneities. Crucially, multiple Weyl-like nodes emerge in the electronic band structure due to strong spin-orbit coupling, whose positions relative to the Fermi level is sensitively modulated by the canting angles of the self-intercalated Cr cations. These nodes contribute strongly to the Berry curvature and AHE conductivity. This component competes with the contribution from bands that are less affected by the self-intercalation, resulting in a sign change in AHE with temperature and the emergence of additional humps and dips. The findings provide compelling evidence for the intrinsic origin of the unconventional AHE in Cr 2 Te 3 and further establish self-intercalation as a control knob for engineering AHE in complex magnets.

Synergetic Effect of Aluminum Oxide and Organic Halide Salts on Two‐Dimensional Perovskite Layer Formation and Stability Enhancement of Perovskite Solar Cells

Long-chain organic halide salts are widely used in perovskite-based optoelectronic devices for surface passivation owing to their capability to interact with the surface defects of perovskites. Here, aluminum oxide (AlO x ) is introduced via atomic layer deposition onto octylammonium iodide (OAI) to exploit the benefits of organic halide salts without generating undesired defects. The devices incorporating AlO x on OAI-treated perovskite (OAI/AlO x ) show enhancement in both device performance and photo-stability compared to those with only treatment. A diffusion of aluminum from AlO x into the perovskite through surface characterization contributes to a uniform photo-generated carrier transport in both the surface and the bulk of the perovskite absorber. In addition, it is revealed that light-induced two-dimensional perovskite formation on OAI/AlO x . This may be ascribed to preventing the loss of OA cations due to the presence of AlO x , leading to a decrease in the number of iodine anions which suppresses the light-induced degradation of corresponding devices. Consequently, the devices show over 24% efficiency and retain their efficiency over 1000 hours under continuous light illumination.

Structural deformation and host–guest properties of doubly-reduced cycloparaphenylenes, [ n ]CPPs 2– ( n = 6, 8, 10, and 12)

Chemical reduction of several cycloparaphenylenes (CPPs) ranging in size from [8]CPP to [12]CPP has been investigated with potassium metal in THF. The X-ray diffraction characterization of the resulting doubly-reduced [n]CPPs provided a unique series of carbon nanohoops with increasing dimensions and core flexibility for the first comprehensive structural analysis. The consequences of electron acquisition by a [n]CPP core have been analyzed in comparison with the neutral parents. The addition of two electrons to the cyclic carbon framework of [n]CPPs leads to the characteristic elliptic core distortion and facilitates the internal encapsulation of sizable cationic guests. Molecular and solid-state structure changes, alkali metal binding and unique size-dependent host abilities of the [n]CPP 2– series with n = 6–12 are discussed. This in-depth analysis opens new perspectives in supramolecular chemistry of [n]CPPs and promotes their applications in size-selective guest encapsulation and chemical separation.
