How do things interact in an energy system? Do we understand the interfaces and links between component parts of our energy system? How are we structuring our policies to allow for resilient planning? How can interactions between markets and policy be better understood? Innovative ideas and solutions will be discussed in order to analyse and assess possible options for implementation. Outcomes will be published to provide recommendations for policy and decision makers. Innovative ideas and solutions will be discussed in order to analyse and assess possi

Chemical-Looping Combustion for Carbon Capture

International Review of chemical Engineering (Italian journal to publish review papers in chemical Engineering)-paper size must be not more than 15 pages  (impact factor of 5.96) Korean Journal of Chemical Engineering (impact factor 1.059) Research status from University of newcastle, Australia for integrated Chemical-Looping Air Separation(ICLAS) with dual circulated fluidised beds(490-micro-gas chromatograph for online analysis of flue gas) Bench scale set-up for Chemical-Looping Air separation (CLAS) Metals are extracted from their ores For example, copper will displace silver from its compounds, because it is higher up in the reactivity series.                                           copper + silver nitrate    silver + copper nitrate Iron cannot displace magnesium from its compounds because it is less reactive than magnesium. The position of a metal in the reactivity series can be used to predict how a metal could be extracted from a compound.Many ores contain a m

Ceramic Protective Coatings

Image
Ultramet applies protective coatings to carbon/carbon and ceramic matrix composites, graphite, refractory metals, and super alloys for operation in severe environments. Low temperature deposition  ( lessthan 752oF or 400oC) is possible to accommodate components with low melting points.   Advantages High temperature oxidation protection for refractory metal- and carbon-based components Deposition at temperatures as low as 10% of the melting point of the coating material No porosity (fully dense) Availability in various metal carbides, oxides, nitrides, and borides High emissivity Thermal protection Applicability to intricate shapes and textured surfaces Applications Engine and airframe components Fiber interface coatings Thermal protection system components             Oxyacetylene torch testing showing oxidation stability of carbide-coated carbon/carbon specimen Refractory Carbides Hard, wear-resistant, chemically inert, chemically resistant, and nearl

Carbides - carbon

Image
Carbides are a class of compounds composed of carbon and an electro positive atom Titanium Carbide Lattice structure of titanium carbide KEY POINTS Carbides are generally formed at high temperatures (> 1500 °C). Carbides are generally quite stable and exhibit high melting points. Carbides can be classified as salt-like, interstitial, and covalent.. In chemistry, carbides are compounds composed of  carbon  and less-electronegative elements (Figure 1). They are usually distinguished by their chemical bonding. They are generally prepared from metals or  metal  oxides at high temperatures (1500 °C or higher) by combining the metal with carbon. Carbides are used in key industrial applications, and their naming is not systematic. Saline Carbides Salt-like (saline) carbides are composed of the highly electropositive atoms, such as the alkali, alkali earth, and  group -III metals, mixed with carbon.  Aluminum forms carbides, but other elements from group XIII do not.
