Gas Separation Membranes with Atom-Thick Nanopores: The Potential of Nanoporous Single-Layer Graphene

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Kuang-Jung Hsu, Cédric Karel J Van Goethem, Luis Francisco Villalobos Vazquez de la Parra, Deepu Joseph Babu

Gas separation is one of the most important industrial processes and is poised to take a larger role in the transition to renewable energy, e.g., carbon capture and hydrogen purification. Conventional gas separation processes involving cryogenic distillati ...

Persistence of the isotopic signature of pentavalent uranium in magnetite

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Barbora Bártová, Zezhen Pan

Uranium isotopic signatures can be harnessed to monitor the reductive remediation of subsurface contamination or to reconstruct paleo-redox environments. However, the mechanistic underpinnings of the isotope fractionation associated with U reduction remain ...

Endogenous O-17 Dynamic Nuclear Polarization of Gd-Doped CeO2 from 100 to 370 K

David Lyndon Emsley, Snaedis Björgvinsdóttir, Moreno Lelli, Michael Allan Hope, Georges Guévork Jean-Jacques Menzildjian, Bowen Zhang, Zhuoran Wang

O-17 NMR is an invaluable tool to study the structure and dynamics of oxide materials but remains challenging to apply in many systems. Even with isotopic enrichment, studies of samples with low masses and/or concentrations of the active species, such as t ...

Systematic investigations of uranium carbide composites oxidation from micro- to nano-scale: Application to waste disposal

Nhât-Tân Vuong

The production of radioisotope beams at the ISOLDE (Isotope Separator OnLine DEvice) facility at CERN is achieved by irradiating target materials (e.g. uranium carbides and metal foils) with protons. The materials are usually operated at temperatures above ...

Etching nanopores in single-layer graphene with a sub-angstrom resolution in molecular sieving

Shiqi Huang

Single-layer graphene (SLG) membranes, hosting molecular-sieving nanopores have been regarded as the ultimate gas separation membranes, attributing to the fact that they are the thinnest possible molecular barrier. However, the expected attractive performa ...

Effect of fuel isotope mass on q-profile formation in JET hybrid plasmas

Matteo Fontana

The initial current ramp phase of JET hybrid plasmas is used to optimise the target q-profile for main heating to allow access to high beta and avoid MHD instabilities. Mixed protium-deuterium experiments, carried out at JET since the installation of the b ...

Quantification of surface composition and segregation on AuAg bimetallic nanoparticles by MALDI MS

Francesco Stellacci, Zhi Luo, Suiyang Liao

In this work we show that it is possible to use MALDI-TOF as a tool to quantify the atomic composition and to describe the phase segragation of the surface of ligand-coated, bimetallic AuAg nanoparticles. Our investigation shows that AuAg nanoparticles of ...

The Impact of Surfactants on the Inertial Separation of Bubbles in Microfluidic Electrolyzers

Demetri Psaltis, Seyyed Mohammad Hosseini Hashemi, Pooria Hadikhani

Improving the throughput of electrochemical reactions such as water electrolysis is an ongoing effort. In a membrane-less electrolyzer, product separation can be achieved via controlled two-phase flows within the electrochemical flow cells. In this case, i ...

Isotope dependence of energy, momentum and particle confinement in tokamaks

Henri Weisen, Michele Marin, Yann Camenen, Javier García Hernández

The isotope dependence of plasma transport will have a significant impact on the performance of future D-T experiments in JET and ITER and eventually on the fusion gain and economics of future reactors. In preparation for future D-T operation on JET, dedic ...
