The Molecular Design Basis for Hydrogen Storage in Clathrate Hydrates
We have tried extensively for a year to store hydrogen in clathrate hydrates and in semi hydrates but have been unsuccessful. Rather than continue to work on the fundamentals of a project that has yet to be proven to have significant potential and impact, we changed our focus to he development of novel materials that have potential applications in CO 2 sequestration and storage, and in catalysis. These have led to peer-reviewed publications and are described. These materials continue to be studied.
DOE Review of Requirements and Capabilities for Analyzing and Responding to Beyond Design Basis Events
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has established a rigorous nuclear safety regulatory infrastructure for the protection of workers, the public, and the environment. Part of this infrastructure includes processes for evaluating events to foster continuous improvement. In this spirit, DOE (including the National Nuclear Security Administration) took the following actions to review the safety of its nuclear facilities and identify opportunities for improvement in light of the March 2011 accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.

Supercritical CO2 Power Cycles Design Basis – Brayton Cycle Analysis - Update
Fundamental sCO2 cycle analyses. This is an ESPA/Noblis presentation of a study made to look at indirect sCO2 Brayton cycles using a generic heat source from a fundamental thermodynamic prospective. Included are overviews of factors impacting cycle configurations, heat sources and outlines of both indirect and direct Brayton Cycles. Sensitivity Analyses are performed on a number of items that include working fluids, cycle pressure ratios and pressures, turbine inlet temperatures, and turbomachinery efficiencies. The study includes testing various equation of state (EOS) to arrive at reasonable and accurate thermodynamic values for fluids in the critical point region. The results are presented in many summary plots to illustrate the findings to the reader. Additional discussion is available in a final report.
