Air toxics from heavy oil production and consumption (open access)

Air toxics from heavy oil production and consumption

This report assesses the potential impact of recent Federal and state regulations for airborne toxic substances on the production and consumption of heavy fuel oils. Emissions of nickel from heavy oil production in California are considered in some detail, in conjunction with California state regulations for toxic emissions. Although the use of thermal energy from heavy crude oils could in theory be impacted by toxic air pollution regulations, recent trends towards the use of natural gas for the required extraction energy appear to provide substantial relief, in addition to reducing emissions of criteria air pollutants. However, the consumption of residual fuel oils containing toxic metals could result in higher population exposures to these substances and their attendant risks may be worthy of more detailed analysis.

[Letter from Park Chambers, Tim Doud, and Lawrence Steger to Sterling Houston - December 22, 1992]

Letter from Park Chambers, Tim Doud, and Lawrence Steger of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago to Sterling Houston, prominent San Antonio playwright. They write to thank him for allowing them to house his documentation. It appears that Mr. Houston's contribution was helpful to an exhibition titled Private/Public. The School of the Art Institute played a seemingly large role in the exhibit as well.

Measurement of local void fraction in a ribbed annulus (open access)

Measurement of local void fraction in a ribbed annulus

The computer code FLOWTRAN-TF is used to analyze hypothetical hydraulic accidents for the nuclear reactor at the Savannah River Site. During a hypothetical Large Break Loss-of-Coolant Accident (LOCA), reactor assemblies would contain a two-phase mixture of air and water which flows downward. Reactor assemblies consist of nested, ribbed annuli. Longitudinal ribs divide each annulus into four subchannels. For accident conditions, air and water can flow past ribs from one subchannel to another. For FLOWTRAN-TF to compute the size of those flows, it is necessary to know the local void fraction in the region of the rib. Measurements have previously been made of length-average void fraction in a ribbed annulus. However, no direct measurements were available of local void fraction. Due to the lack of data, a test was designed to measure local void fraction at the rib. One question addressed by the test was whether void fraction at the rib is solely a function of azimuthal-average void fraction or a function of additional variables such as pressure boundary conditions. This report provides a discussion of this test.

Silica Membranes for Hydrogen Separation From Coal Gas (open access)

Silica Membranes for Hydrogen Separation From Coal Gas

The project objectives are (1) to explore new silylation reagents and reaction conditions with the purpose of reducing the thickness and increasing the permeance of silica membranes, (2) to delineate mechanism and kinetics of silica deposition, (3) to measure the permeability of silica layers at different extents of deposition and (4) to mathematically model the relationship of permeability and membrane structure. Study of the literature has suggested the use of certain ultrafast silylation reagents for the purpose of achieving thinner deposit layers and, hence, increase membrane permeance. The silylation reagents available commercially are suitable for grafting only one molecule per silanol ([minus]OH) group on the solid surface. The silylation reagents needed for our purposes must contain hydrolyzable groups such that the [minus]OH groups can be regenerated and the reaction continued to build a multilayer deposit. During the reporting period we have started to explore the synthesis of silylation reagents suitable for multilayer formation. A systematic series of kinetic experiments were carried out using a thermogravimetric analysis system (TGA) to measure the reaction rate of SiCl[sub 4] with surface [minus]OH groups, the rate of H[sub 2]O with surface chloride groups and the rates of condensation reactions between two [minus]OH groups and …
