Ruthenium is recovered from used nuclear fuel in an oxidizing environment by depositing the volatile RuO4 species onto a polymeric substrate.
The invention describes a configuration of dishwasher using thermoelectric heat pumps that can accomplish energy savings and enhanced drying performance.
This invention aims to develop a new feature for a heat pump water heater having a forced flow condenser, coupled with a mixing valve, and a new feature to maximize the first hour rating and provide quick response to hot water demand, comparable to a typical gas water heater.&
Develop an innovative refrigerator having a thermoelectric cooler cascaded with a regular refrigerator compression system. the TE cooler dedicatedly controls the temperature in a freezer compartment.
Lean-burn natural gas (NG) engines are a preferred choice for the hard-to-electrify sectors for higher efficiency and lower NOx emissions, but methane slip can be a challenge.
This work seeks to alter the interface condition through thermal history modification, deposition energy density, and interface surface preparation to prevent interface cracking.
Additive manufacturing (AM) enables the incremental buildup of monolithic components with a variety of materials, and material deposition locations.
Ceramic matrix composites are used in several industries, such as aerospace, for lightweight, high quality and high strength materials. But producing them is time consuming and often low quality.
Spherical powders applied to nuclear targetry for isotope production will allow for enhanced heat transfer properties, tailored thermal conductivity and minimize time required for target fabrication and post processing.
Buildings are energy intensive and contribute to carbon dioxide emissions while accounting for one-third of energy consumption worldwide. Heat pump technology can assist in electrification and decarbonization efforts.
