How Solvent Mediates the Catalytic Fate of 2-Methoxyphenol in Hydrodeoxygenation Catalysis?

Kinetic and isotopic assessments combined with theoretical calculations shed light on the mechanistic differences in terms of the number of hydrogen addition steps and the electronic charges of reactive hydrogen in the catalytic sequence leading to the Ar−OCH 3 scission of 2-methoxyphenol occurring at various interfaces of vapor−Ru, cyclohexane−Ru, and water−Ru. At vapor−Ru and cyclohexane−Ru interfaces, the initial hydrogen adatom (H*) additions on the phenyl ring disrupt its aromaticity, as a step required to occur before kinetically relevant Ar−OCH 3 scission on an ensemble of Ru sites. The number of H* addition events prerequisite to the formation of the kinetically relevant Ar−OCH 3 scission transition state, however, is larger at the cyclohexane−Ru interface than those at the vapor−Ru and water−Ru interfaces. The preferential solvation of 2-methoxyphenol derived reaction precursors and H* weakens their adsorption on Ru sites, which leads to a decrease in the activation barrier for the third H* addition step and in turn a larger number of H* additions. At the water−Ru interface, water as a polar protic solvent promotes the Ar−OCH 3 scission by enabling a mechanistically distinct catalytic route an adjacent water molecule from the solvent layer assists with the intramolecular proton shuttling from the hydroxyl group (−OH) to the vicinal methoxy group (−OCH 3 ) of 2-methoxyphenol, evolving a highly charged transition state that is further stabilized by the water solvent layer, thereby leading to Ar−OCH 3 scission rate constants that are much higher than those at the vapor−Ru interface and, when comparing at the same H 2 chemical potential, higher Ar−OCH 3 scission turnovers. Furthermore, these distinct mechanistic details of the Ar−OCH 3 scission at various reaction interfaces, inferred from experiment and theory, illustrate how a solvent either solvates reaction intermediates and transition states or directly participates in the formation of kinetically relevant transition states, leading to changes in the free energy landscape, thus rewriting the catalytic fates in hydrodeoxygenation reactions.

Ligation of Single-Site Ruthenium within Perovskite Oxides for Efficient Conversion of Thermodynamically Stable Molecules

Ru cation ligation in SrTiO 3 perovskite and their migration to the surface through exsolution are investigated for the dry reforming of methane (DRM), a chemistry that requires activation of two thermodynamically stable molecules, CH 4 and CO 2 . Compared to a supported 1 wt % Ru/SrTiO 3 benchmark, doped and exsolved Ru-SrTiO 3 demonstrate ≥3× higher CH 4 turnover rates (873 K), with isolated, ligated Ru exhibiting higher reactivity. Reactor studies assert that CH 4 and CO 2 activation are both kinetically relevant for CH 4 turnover rates on exsolved Ru-SrTiO 3 , unlike for supported Ru systems, where H-abstraction from CH 4 is the sole kinetically relevant step. As such, exsolved and doped Ru architectures are responsive toward co-reactant activation strategies, with their consequent reaction networks showing marked departures from those established for supported Ru catalysts. In situ spectroscopy and kinetic analyses propose distinct sensitivity toward CO 2 on Ru-SrTiO 3 systems, where higher CH4 turnover rates result from O-assisted C─H bond activation pathways. These pathways occur on paired Ru-oxygen vacancy sites that are inherent to the perovskite structure and are not readily accessible on supported Ru catalysts. Here, CO 2 is activated on oxygen vacancies directly adjacent to Ru active sites, which facilitates CH 4 C─H bond activation through a surface methoxy intermediate. The high reactivity of Ru-SrTiO 3 systems enables stable CH 4 turnover rates at milder reaction temperatures (673 K), conditions under which the supported counterpart, Ru/SrTiO 3 , is inactive. Overall, this work demonstrates that ligation of catalytically active cations in perovskite oxides facilitates site engineering toward atom-efficient activation of thermodynamically stable feedstocks.

Values of Recovered Uranium from HALEU Used Nuclear Fuels (Rev. 1)

The value of the recovered uranium (RU) from high assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU) used nuclear fuels was evaluated. Three utilizations of the recovered uranium were considered in this study, which include the cases that RU is used as a fissile material of nuclear fuel, RU is reused in the original advanced reactor after reenrichment, and RU is reused in conventional light water reactors after down-blending. In this study, the RU values were identified by comparing the cost of making a unit mass of fuel with RU versus the fuel cost with the equivalent fresh enriched uranium (EU). A series of bounding analyses for calculating the fuel costs were conducted using several selected reactor types, which include microreactors, advanced thermal reactors, and fast reactors having a burnup of 2 – 165 GWd/t (with residual U-235 content in discharged fuels of 0.8 - 19.6%). This study concludes that RU having a residual U-235 content higher than ~7% would cost less than the fresh EU. The affordability increases as the residual U-235 content in RU increases. For instance, the fuel cost with RU having the residual U-235 content of 19.6% is about 85% cheaper than the fuel cost with the equivalent fresh EU. This study observed that reusing RU after reenrichment in the original microreactor is impractical because the U-235 content in the re-enriched RU fuel would need to be higher than the limit for low-enriched uranium (<20%) to provide the same burnup performance due to parasitic absorption from U-236. It is noted that this study focused on the recovery of uranium only, and the value of other fissile materials (such as Pu) in the used nuclear fuel was not considered even though those are bred significantly in fast reactors. In addition, the impacts of uncertainties in the cost data and the value of RU of TRISO fuels were not evaluated in this study due to the limited information on the cost data uncertainties and the separation cost from TRISO fuels.
