Electrochemical cleaning: An in-Situ method to reverse chromium poisoning in solid oxide fuel cell cathodes

Chromium poisoning is one of the primary factors that affect solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) durability. In this study, an electrochemical cleaning method has been employed to reverse the effects of chromium poisoning. Two cells were fabricated and poisoned under identical conditions by operating them at 800°C in the presence of a Cr source. Both poisoned cells exhibited a significant reduction in maximum power density and an increase in polarization resistance. One of the poisoned cells, designated as the baseline cell, was cooled to room temperature after poisoning. Microstructural observation of the baseline cell showed significant contamination of the cathode active layer by chromium oxide and (Cr,Mn) spinel deposits. The other poisoned cell was electrochemically cleaned for two hours under a mild electrolytic condition. As a result of the electrochemical cleaning process, the chromium oxide deposits were substantially removed leading to a significant reduction of Cr concentration in the cathode, especially at the cathode/electrolyte interface. Furthermore, a substantial fraction of the cell performance loss was also reversed. To the best of our knowledge, this is a first demonstration of reversing the effects of chromium poisoning using a rapid in-situ process.

Tuning working potential of silicon-phosphorus anode via microstructure control for high-energy lithium-ion batteries

The primary research on anode materials of lithium-ion batteries have been focused on increasing the specific capacity, while the working potential that is also closely related to the practical energy density of batteries has been paid much less attention. In this paper, starting from micrometer-sized silicon and black phosphorus, we have reported a high-energy silicon-phosphorus/carbon anode (denoted as mSPC) via a high-energy ball milling process, which demonstrates an average discharge working potential of 0.3 volts versus lithium, together with a high reversible capacity of > 2000 mAh/g, high initial coulombic efficiency of 84%, excellent cycle stability, and superior rate capability up to 15 A/g. Furthermore, in situ focused-ion-beam scanning electron microscopy reveals that the volume change of the mSPC anode during repeated (de) lithiation is effectively alleviated. In contrast, starting from nanometer-sized silicon, the resulted anode (denoted as nSPC) not only presents a lower reversible capacity (~1200 mAh/g), but also exhibits a higher charge/discharge working potential, leading to reduced energy density. Our results indicate the importance of composition/structure control in tailoring the working potential and specific capacity of alloying-type anodes towards high-energy lithium-ion batteries.

Advancements in conventional and 3D printed feed spacers in membrane modules

Plate & frame and spiral-wound modules are used for gas separation, pervaporation, reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, microfiltration, electro-dialysis, electro-deionization, membrane distillation and forward osmosis membrane processes. Feed channel spacers are an integral part of both module types – providing mechanical support for a cross-flow channel through the module and, in most cases, promoting mixing to enhance mass transfer to reduce concentration polarization and fouling. However, enhanced mass transfer comes at a cost of increased hydraulic pressure losses and stagnant zones wherever a spacer filament touches a membrane surface. Further, these stagnant zones exacerbate membrane fouling and make cleaning more difficult. Efforts to improve feed spacer performance largely focus on adjusting the chemistry or geometry of the spacer to mitigate these challenges. Additive manufacturing (i.e. 3D printing) offers new degrees of freedom in feed spacer design and production, which opens up a new area of research in membrane technology. This review critically assesses the peer-reviewed literature on conventional net- or mesh-style feed spacers in addition to various novel spacer geometries and chemistries produced via 3D printing. We further review and evaluate conventional spacer manufacturing methods and discuss advantages and disadvantages of 3D printed spacers.

Uncovering the Relationship between Aging and Cycling on Lithium Metal Battery Self-Discharge

Lithium metal is considered the “holy grail” material to replace typical Li-ion anodes due to the absence of a host structure coupled with a high theoretical capacity. The absence of a host structure results in large volumetric changes when lithium is electrodeposited/dissolved, making the lithium prone to stranding and parasitic reactions with the electrolyte. Lithium research is focused on enabling highly reversible lithium electrodeposition/dissolution, which is important to achieving long cycle life. Understanding the various mechanisms of self-discharge is also critical for realizing practical lithium metal batteries but is often overlooked. In contrast to previous work, it is shown here that self-discharge via galvanic corrosion is negligible, particularly when lithium is cycled to relevant capacities. Rather, the continued electrochemical cycling of lithium metal results in self-discharge when periodic rest is applied during cycling. The extent of self-discharge can be controlled by increasing the capacity of plated lithium, tuning electrolyte chemistry, incorporating regular rest, or introducing lithiophilic materials. Finally, the Coulombic losses that occur during periodic rest are largely reversible, suggesting that the dominant self-discharge mechanism in this work is not an irreversible chemical process but rather a morphological process.

Quadrupole topological photonic crystals

Quadrupole topological phases, exhibiting protected boundary states that are themselves topological insulators of lower dimensions, have recently been of great interest. Extensions of these ideas from current tight binding models to continuum theories for realistic materials require the identification of quantized invariants describing the bulk quadrupole order. Here we identify the analog of quadrupole order in Maxwell’s equations for a gyromagnetic photonic crystal (PhC) through a double-band-inversion process. The quadrupole moment is quantized by the simultaneous presence of crystalline symmetry and broken time-reversal symmetry, which is confirmed using three independent methods: analysis of symmetry eigenvalues, numerical calculations of the nested Wannier bands and the expectation value of the quadrupole operator. Furthermore, we reveal the boundary manifestations of quadrupole phases as quantized edge polarizations and fractional corner charges. The latter are the consequence of a filling anomaly of energy bands as first predicted in electronic systems.

First (p,n) reaction measurement in inverse kinematics with SECAR

Nucleosynthesis in the νp-process occurs in regions of slightly proton-rich nuclei in the neutrino-driven wind of core-collapse supernovae. The process proceeds via a sequence of (p,γ) and (n,p) reactions, and depending on the conditions, may produce elements between Ni and Sn. Recent studies show that a few key (n,p) reactions regulate the efficiency of the neutrino-p process (νp-process). We performed a study of one of such (n,p) reactions via the measurement of the reverse (p,n) in inverse kinematics with SECAR at NSCL/FRIB.Such proton-induced reaction measurements are particularly challenging, as the recoils and the unreacted projectiles have nearly identical masses. An appropriate separation level can be achieved with SECAR, and along with the incoincidence detection of neutrons these measurements become attainable. The preparation of the SECAR system for accommodating its first (p,n) reaction measurement, including the development of alternative ion beam optics, and the setup of the in-coincidence neutron detection, along with discussion on preliminary results from the p(58Fe,n)58Co reaction measurement are presented and discussed.

Experimental Study of Instabilities in Hydrogen-Air Fueled Rotating Detonation Combustion Presentation

Conventional gas turbine engines rely on an idealized constant pressure combustion process that in reality produces a pressure decrease as a result of viscous and other non-reversible losses. An alternative approach is rotating detonation combustion (RDC) which is a form of pressure gain combustion in which one or more detonation waves propagate an annular channel resulting in an increase in pressure across, subsequently providing greater work availability compared to deflagration ultimately leading to opportunities for greater thermodynamic efficiency when used in gas turbine engines that conventionally relies on constant. Modern gas turbine engines often rely on pre-mixed reactants to limit NOx emissions, although this may result in greater susceptibility to instabilities such as flashback and thermoacoustic oscillation, particularly for applications that utilize hydrogen as the fuel. Research in RDC has focused on non-premixed reactants thus limiting the occurrence of flashback, and high frequency detonation wave propagation (kHz) may interfere with the occurrence of thermoacoustic oscillations. Thermal NOx emissions are controlled through rapid combustion and sudden expansion of the working fluid. Although RDC may not be susceptible to instabilities encountered in conventional state of the art gas turbine engine combustion, there may be other mechanisms occurring that support instabilities that could be detrimental to performance.

Modeling HIV-1 Within-Host Dynamics After Passive Infusion of the Broadly Neutralizing Antibody VRC01

VRC01 is a broadly neutralizing antibody that targets the CD4 binding site of HIV-1 gp120. Passive administration of VRC01 in humans has assessed the safety and the effect on plasma viremia of this monoclonal antibody (mAb) in a phase 1 clinical trial. After VRC01 infusion, the plasma viral load in most of the participants was reduced but had particular dynamics not observed during antiretroviral therapy. In this paper, we introduce different mathematical models to explain the observed dynamics and fit them to the plasma viral load data. Based on the fitting results we argue that a model containing reversible Ab binding to virions and clearance of virus-VRC01 complexes by a two-step process that includes (1) saturable capture followed by (2) internalization/degradation by phagocytes, best explains the data. This model predicts that VRC01 may enhance the clearance of Ab-virus complexes, explaining the initial viral decay observed immediately after antibody infusion in some participants. Because Ab-virus complexes are assumed to be unable to infect cells, i.e., contain neutralized virus, the model predicts a longer-term viral decay consistent with that observed in the VRC01 treated participants. By assuming a homogeneous viral population sensitive to VRC01, the model provides good fits to all of the participant data. However, the fits are improved by assuming that there were two populations of virus, one more susceptible to antibody-mediated neutralization than the other.

An illustration of the complexity of continent formation

It was pointed out that a consensus may be emerging in crustal growth models, considering the clustering of most growth curves and their uncertainties. Curves most distant from this clustering represent models involving extensive recycling of continental material back into the mantle, but the author wondered if geochemical signatures for this would be recognizable considering the lack of evidence from seismic tomography for discrete mantle reservoirs, and the likelihood of core-mantle interaction based on recent high pressure experiments. Unreactivated Archean rocks represent only 2 percent of present continental area, and the author was uncomfortable about basing inferences on what the early Earth was like on such a small amount of information. He feels that the hypothesis of continental assembly that needs testing is that of banging together of island arcs, such as in Indonesia today. As an example of how complex this process can be, the author described the geology of the Caribbean arc system, which shows evidence for reversals of subduction polarity, numerous collisional events, and substantial strike-slip movements. It seemed unlikely to the author that Archean examples would have been less complicated.

Calibration Test Set for a Phase-Comparison Digital Tracker

An apparatus that generates four signals at a frequency of 7.1 GHz having precisely controlled relative phases and equal amplitudes has been designed and built. This apparatus is intended mainly for use in computer-controlled automated calibration and testing of a phase-comparison digital tracker (PCDT) that measures the relative phases of replicas of the same X-band signal received by four antenna elements in an array. (The relative direction of incidence of the signal on the array is then computed from the relative phases.) The present apparatus can also be used to generate precisely phased signals for steering a beam transmitted from a phased antenna array. The apparatus (see figure) includes a 7.1-GHz signal generator, the output of which is fed to a four-way splitter. Each of the four splitter outputs is attenuated by 10 dB and fed as input to a vector modulator, wherein DC bias voltages are used to control the in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) signal components. The bias voltages are generated by digital-to-analog- converter circuits on a control board that receives its digital control input from a computer running a LabVIEW program. The outputs of the vector modulators are further attenuated by 10 dB, then presented at high-grade radio-frequency connectors. The attenuation reduces the effects of changing mismatch and reflections. The apparatus was calibrated in a process in which the bias voltages were first stepped through all possible IQ settings. Then in a reverse interpolation performed by use of MATLAB software, a lookup table containing 3,600 IQ settings, representing equal amplitude and phase increments of 0.1 , was created for each vector modulator. During operation of the apparatus, these lookup tables are used in calibrating the PCDT.

Visual hydrogen detector with variable reversibilty

Methods, processes and compositions are provided for a visual or chemochromic hydrogen-detector with variable or tunable reversible color change. The working temperature range for the hydrogen detector is from minus 100.degree. C. to plus 500.degree. C. A hydrogen-sensitive pigment, including, but not limited to, oxides, hydroxides and polyoxo-compounds of tungsten, molybdenum, vanadium, chromium and combinations thereof, is combined with nano-sized metal activator particles and preferably, coated on a porous or woven substrate. In the presence of hydrogen, the composition rapidly changes its color from white or light-gray or light-tan to dark gray, navy-blue or black depending on the exposure time and hydrogen concentration in the medium. After hydrogen exposure ceases, the original color of the hydrogen-sensitive pigment is restored, and the visual hydrogen detector can be used repeatedly. By changing the composition of the hydrogen-sensitive pigment, the time required for its complete regeneration is varied from a few seconds to several days.

Electrochemically Enhanced Carbonate Precipitation into Building Materials: A Scalable Carbon Sequestration Strategy

Decarbonization goals across hard-to-abate industries have prompted an urgent need for advanced carbon capture and storage technologies. Sequestering CO2 into carbonate minerals is a scalable method of carbon management with the ability to produce value-added carbon negative materials from waste streams for the construction industry. Waste streams rich in Ca and Mg such as nickel mine tailings, iron/steel slag, and reverse osmosis brines can store 7.6 Mt CO2/year as minerals. Additionally, CO2 mineralization in acid-neutralization processes currently present in industrial waste treatment can eliminate associated CO2 emissions of lime processing by improving process circularity. The carbonate minerals formed from these waste sources are valuable as components of carbon-negative concrete, which have the potential to sequester 1.8 billion Mt of CO2/year. Electrochemical means of CO2 mineralization improves the kinetics of the thermodynamically favorable mineralization process, lessening or eliminating the high energy requirements of traditional methods. Here, we investigate benchtop scale electrochemical CO2 mineralization of alkaline mining waste, highlighting the effects of key constituents in mining waste on the mineralization process.

Heteroatom anchoring to enhance electrochemical reversibility for high-voltage P2-type oxide cathodes of sodium-ion batteries

P2-type cathode has received extensive attention due to its faster Na+ diffusion and a high theoretical capacity in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, undesirable phase transformations have induced dramatic capacity decay of SIBs during the cycling process. In this study, heteroatom anchoring through Cu/Mg dual doping is introduced into P2-type Na 0.67 Ni 0.33 Mn 0.67 O 2 cathode to enhance high-voltage electrochemical reversibility and modulate interfacial Na + kinetics. Further, the as-prepared Na 0.67 Ni 0.23 Mg 0.05 Cu 0.05 Mn 0.67 O 2 exhibits an outstanding capacity retention (83.4% after 2000 cycles at 10C) and rate performance (73 mAh g -1 at 10C, accounting for 58.7% of that at 0.1 C) over the voltage range of 2.5–4.4 V. Intensive explorations further manifest that the modified mechanism of dual-ion doping strategy is attributed to the synergistic coupling effect of a substantial change in Na occupancy distribution and an increase in oxygen vacancy buffer. Thus, the optimized cathode expedites Na + diffusion and reduces detrimental phase transformation, which favors high-rate performance and long-term cycling stability. This study develops a route to rationally design high-voltage cathode materials for SIBs.

Computational flow modeling of triply periodic minimal surfaces as feed channel spacers in ultra-high pressure reverse osmosis applications

Triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS) are a special class of mathematical surfaces characterized by a high surface area-to-volume ratio. They have generated considerable interest in fields such as acoustics, heat transfer, and membrane-based filtration processes. This study evaluates the performance of four different TPMS designs—Schoen Gyroid, Schoen Crossed Layers of Parallels (CLP), Schoen Transverse Crossed Layers of Parallels (tCLP), and Schwarz-Primitive—when used as feed channel spacers under ultra-high pressure reverse osmosis (UHPRO) conditions, at approximately 200 bar. Our experimentally validated computational fluid dynamics model reveal different flow patterns within the feed channels for each of the four TPMS designs, leading to varying hydrodynamic and permeation properties. Under the simulated UHPRO conditions, the Gyroid and tCLP designs yield up to a 23% increase in average permeate velocity and a 14% reduction in average membrane-surface concentration relative to a non-woven spacer of the same porosity. Furthermore, the enhanced performance comes with an increased feed channel pressure drop, although it only constitutes less than 4% of the operating pressure when extrapolated for a meter-long membrane module. Additionally, the study analyzes the effects of varying inlet velocity and spacer porosity on membrane performance. Overall, this research provides valuable insights into the potential use of TPMS spacers in UHPRO applications.

Legionella metaeffector MavL reverses ubiquitin ADP-ribosylation via a conserved arginine-specific macrodomain

ADP-ribosylation is a reversible post-translational modification involved in various cellular activities. Removal of ADP-ribosylation requires (ADP-ribosyl)hydrolases, with macrodomain enzymes being a major family in this category. The pathogen Legionella pneumophila mediates atypical ubiquitination of host targets using the SidE effector family in a process that involves ubiquitin ADP-ribosylation on arginine 42 as an obligatory step. Here, we show that the Legionella macrodomain effector MavL regulates this pathway by reversing the arginine ADP-ribosylation, likely to minimize potential detrimental effects caused by the modified ubiquitin. We determine the crystal structure of ADP-ribose-bound MavL, providing structural insights into recognition of the ADP-ribosyl group and catalytic mechanism of its removal. Further analyses reveal DUF4804 as a class of MavL-like macrodomain enzymes whose representative members show unique selectivity for mono-ADP-ribosylated arginine residue in synthetic substrates. We find such enzymes are also present in eukaryotes, as exemplified by two previously uncharacterized (ADP-ribosyl)hydrolases in Drosophila melanogaster . Crystal structures of several proteins in this class provide insights into arginine specificity and a shared mode of ADP-ribose interaction distinct from previously characterized macrodomains. Collectively, our study reveals a new regulatory layer of SidE-catalyzed ubiquitination and expands the current understanding of macrodomain enzymes.

Electrodepositing Textured Sn Film as a Highly Reversible Anode for Aqueous Batteries

Electrodepositing metal materials in large capacity, at low potential, and with high reversibility serves as the foundation for any aqueous rechargeable battery chemistry to realize the promises of high energy, low cost, and high safety. However, such a foundation is not solid because of the natural tendency of metals to form irregular, nonplanar, and often dendritic morphologies during electrochemical crystallization, which is further amplified in an acidic environment due to the faster kinetics of the coupled proton and mass-transport processes between hydrated metal ions and free metal atoms. As a typical representative, tin metal (Sn 0 ) has potential to achieve high energy in acidic batteries, but its nonuniform large-particle morphology, obtained from traditional electrodeposition, leads to dead Sn 0 formation and deteriorating reversibility, accompanied by the sustained hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and active Sn 0 loss. Here, in this study, we report quaternary onium salts as effective interfacial cocations that, via selective adsorption, steadily texturize Sn 0 deposition along the (211) plane, which is intrinsically inert to the HER, thus regulating the film deposition process by favoring the formation of planar Sn 0 film. Such Sn 0 film brings exceptional reversibility in acidic electrolytes, which translates into sustained cycling stability at applicable areal capacities in both anode-half cells (similar to 1500 deposition/dissolution cycles at 5 mAh cm -2 ) and full cells (350 charge/discharge cycles at 5 mAh cm -2 ). Textured electrodeposition with intrinsic HER-suppression capability provides a universal solution for diverse metal anode materials in rechargeable energy-dense aqueous batteries.
