Assessment of the 3430 Building Filtered Exhaust Stack Sampling Probe Location: Stack Verification Following Fan and Air Blender Additions

The velocity uniformity and flow angle results from the 3430 stack verification tests, performed in April 2023, demonstrated that the CFD model results may be used to support the qualification of the stack sampling location. The measured velocity uniformity verification test result was 2.1 %COV. This value is well within the uniformity criterion, which is that the velocity uniformity be =20 %COV. Additionally, this value is well within the criterion that the actual stack measurement must be within 5% of the surrogate stack (i.e., CFD modeled stack); in this case the CFD modeled average result of 2.85 %COV for the nominal operating range of 22,800 cfm to 62,400 cfm. Additionally, the measured average flow angle at the 3430 stack monitor location was 5.6 degrees. The result is =20 degrees, so the criterion is met.

EPCAPE Pier Filters Field Campaign Report

The focus of the Eastern Pacific Cloud Aerosol Precipitation Experiment (EPCAPE) is to characterize the extent, radiative properties, aerosol interactions, and precipitation characteristics of stratocumulus clouds in the Eastern Pacific across all four seasons at a coastal location, the Scripps Pier and the Scripps Mt. Soledad sites in La Jolla, California. An important enhancement to this study will be the collection of simultaneous in-cloud aerosol and droplet measurements to investigate the differences in these cloud properties during regional polluted and clean marine conditions.

Nano Filters for Selective Metal Capture (CRADA Final Report)

As part of the Cyclotron Road program, Sunchem investigated novel nanoporous materials and their metal extraction performance in both batch and dynamic continuous flow operations. The proposed project developed novel nanoporous materials for selective metal extraction from complex industrial mixtures. The technical objectives were to synthesize and characterize the nanoporous materials, structure the nanoporous materials with binders along with structuring techniques and evaluate its performance in both a batch and dynamic continuous flow operation. The nanoporous material was structured through a disc granulation method to obtain particles in the size range of 250 to 500 micron diameter. This structured material was packed into a continuous flow column which achieved up to 48 wt% of gold capture. This work aimed to address the key technical risk of the materials’ capability to be employed in an industrial operation with competitive performance compared to other adsorbents.
