High Energy Directly Pumped Ho:YLF Laser

The most commonly used crystal architecture to produce 2 micrometer laser is co-doping Ho and Tm into a single host crystal. In this method, the stored energy transfer from the Tm (3)F4 to the Ho (5)I7 manifold is not fast enough to warrant high efficiency for short pulse applications. By separating the Ho and the Tm ions and doping the Tm in YALO3 and the Ho in YLF, we were able to directly pump the Ho (5)I7 manifold with 1.94 micrometers. The Ho:YLF laser has produced 33 mJ at 2.062 micrometers with a quantum efficiency of 0.88. The performance of each laser will be presented.

A kinetic evaluation on NO 2 formation in the post-flame region of pressurized oxy-combustion process

Pressurized oxy-combustion is a promising technology that can significantly re-duce the energy penalty associated with first generation oxy-combustion for CO 2 capture in coal-fired power plants. However, higher pressure enhances the production of strong acid gases, including NO 2 and SO 3 , aggravating the corrosion threat during flue gas re-circulation. In the flame region, high temperature NO x exists mainly as NO, while conversion from NO to NO 2 happened in post-flame region. In this study, the conversion of NO → NO 2 has been kinetically evaluated under representative post-flame conditions of pressurized oxy-combustion after validating the mechanism (80 species and 464 reactions), which includes nitrogen and sulfur chemistry based on GRI-MECH 3.0. The effects of residence time, temperature, pressure, major species (O 2 /H 2 O), and minor or trace species (CO/SO x ) on NO 2 formation are studied. The calculation results show that when pressure is increased from 1 to 15 bar, NO 2 is increased from 1 to 60 ppm, and the acid dew point increases by over 80°C. Higher pressure and temperature greatly reduce the time required to reach equilibrium. With increasing pressure and decreasing temperature, O plays a much more important role than HO 2 in the oxidation of NO. A higher water vapor content accelerates NO 2 formation in all cases by providing more O and HO 2 radicals. The addition of CO or SO 2 also promotes the formation of NO 2 . The NO 2 formation in a pressurized oxy-combustion furnace can be over 10 times that of an atmospheric air-combustion furnace.

Recent advances in polymeric facilitated transport membranes for carbon dioxide separation and hydrogen purification

Membrane and membrane process have been widely considered as one of the best candidates for mitigating CO 2 emissions from the combustion or utilization of fossil fuels. Various amine-containing polymers constitute an important class of membranes, where the highly selective CO 2 transport is achieved by the facilitated transport mechanism. In this review, the amine–CO 2 chemistry is discussed in conjunction with the mechanism of the reaction-mediated CO 2 transport. A wide variety of amine-containing polymers are discussed based on two synthesis motifs: (a) polyamines with amino groups covalently bound to the polymer backbone and (b) small molecule amines embedded in a polymer matrix. This review concludes with the remarks on the facilitated transport membranes for post-combustion carbon capture (CO 2 /N 2 ) and hydrogen purification (CO 2 /H 2 ).

Hydrophobic Nanoconfinement Enhances CO 2 Conversion to H 2 CO 3

Understanding the formation of H 2 CO 3 in water from CO 2 is important in environmental and industrial processes. Although numerous investigations have studied this reaction, the conversion of CO 2 to H 2 CO 3 in nanopores, and how it differs from that in bulk water, has not been understood. We use ReaxFF metadynamics molecular simulations to demonstrate striking differences in the free energy of CO 2 conversion to H 2 CO 3 in bulk and nanoconfined aqueous environments. We find that nanoconfinement not only reduces the energy barrier but also reverses the reaction from endothermic in bulk water to exothermic in nanoconfined water. Also, charged intermediates are observed more often under nanoconfinement than in bulk water. Stronger solvation and more favorable proton transfer with increasing nanoconfinement enhance the thermodynamics and kinetics of the reaction. Here our results provide a detailed mechanistic understanding of an important step in the carbonation process, which depends intricately on confinement, surface chemistry, and CO 2 concentration.

Control of the Structural Charge Distribution and Hydration State upon Intercalation of CO 2 into Expansive Clay Interlayers

Numerous experimental investigations indicated that expansive clays such as montmorillonite can intercalate CO 2 preferentially into their interlayers and therefore potentially act as a material for CO 2 separation, capture, and storage. However, an understanding of the energy–structure relationship during the intercalation of CO 2 into clay interlayers remains elusive. Here, in this study, we use metadynamics molecular dynamics simulations to elucidate the energy landscape associated with CO 2 intercalation. Our free energy calculations indicate that CO 2 favorably partitions into nanoconfined water in clay interlayers from a gas phase, leading to an increase in the CO 2 /H 2 O ratio in clay interlayers as compared to that in bulk water. CO 2 molecules prefer to be located at the centers of charge-neutral hydrophobic siloxane rings, whereas interlayer spaces close to structural charges tend to avoid CO 2 intercalation. The structural charge distribution significantly affects the amount of CO 2 intercalated in the interlayers. These results provide a mechanistic understanding of CO 2 intercalation in clays for CO 2 separation, capture, and storage.
