Membrane distillation (MD) is a separation technology for many industries including desalination, pharmaceuticals, and food processing. However, MD technology readiness has not reached the required level to penetrate the desalination and water treatment market. One of the challenges to commercialization is the limited development and inaccurate assessment of MD-specific membranes. In fact, measuring the performance of MD membranes is challenging because it is dependent on process parameters, making it difficult to separate the individual influences of the process operating conditions and the membranes’ intrinsic properties. These shortcomings drive the need for a standardized methodology to compare and report membrane performance independently of the process parameters. In this work, we propose a standardized methodology for measuring the permeance of MD membranes using a reduced scale direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) setup. This methodology has the potential to streamline membrane assessment and support ongoing efforts in MD membrane development and process scale-up.

Rain cracking (hereinafter referred to as macrocracking) severely impacts the production of sweet cherry (Prunus avium). Calcium (Ca) sprays can reduce macrocracking, but the reported responses to Ca sprays are variable and inconsistent. The objective of this study was to establish the physiological mechanism through which Ca reduces macrocracking in sweet cherry fruit. Six spray applications of 50 mM CaCl2 had no effect on macrocracking (assessed using a standardized immersion assay) despite a 28% increase in the Ca-to-dry mass ratio. Similarly, during another experiment, there was no effect of up to nine Ca sprays on macrocracking, although the Ca-to-dry mass ratio increased as the number of applications increased. In contrast, CaCl2 spray applications during simulated rain (in a fog chamber) significantly reduced the proportion of macrocracked fruit. Additionally, immersion of fruit in CaCl2 decreased macrocracking in a concentration-dependent manner. Monitoring macrocrack extension using image analysis revealed that the rate of macrocrack extension decreased markedly as the CaCl2 concentration increased. This effect was significant at concentrations as low as 1 mM CaCl2. Decreased anthocyanin leakage, decreased epidermal cell wall swelling, and increased fruit skin stiffness and fracture force contributed to the decrease in macrocracking. There was no effect of CaCl2 on the cuticle deposition rate. Our results demonstrated that Ca decreased macrocracking when applied to a wet fruit surface either by spraying on wet fruit or by incubation in solutions containing CaCl2. Under these circumstances, Ca had direct access to the cell wall of an extending macrocrack. The mode of action of Ca in reducing macrocracking is primarily decreasing the rate of crack extension at the tip of a macrocrack.

[Display omitted] • DFT and MD studies the He separation performance of the C 9 N 4 membrane. • C 9 N 4 exhibits high He selectivity relative to other gases in a wide range of temperatures. • He permeance of C 9 N 4 is much higher than industrial production standard at 300 K. • MD simulations reveal the He separation process of C 9 N 4 should be operated below 500 K. Motivated by the design of high-performance membranes for helium (He) separation, the He separation properties of the C 9 N 4 membrane was systemically investigated via the combination of first-principles methods and molecular dynamics simulations. The gases (He, Ne, Ar, N 2 , O 2 , CO, CO 2 , and CH 4) are all weakly physisorbed on the C 9 N 4 membrane. The diffusion energy barrier for He is just 0.07 eV, but that of Ne, Ar, N 2 , O 2 , CO, CO 2 , and CH 4 molecules is 0.14, 0.87, 0.55, 0.27, 0.44, 0.65, and 1.45 eV, respectively. The C 9 N 4 monolayer exhibits ultra-high He selectivity relative to other gases in a wide temperature range. The He permeance of the C 9 N 4 membrane is 1.5 × 10
−3 mol·s−1 ·m−2 ·Pa−1 at room temperature, which is much higher than the acceptance value of industrial production standard. In addition, MD simulations reveal that the He separation process should be operated below 500 K so that can obtain the ultra-highly purified He gas via the C 9 N 4 membrane. It thus shows that the C 9 N 4 membrane has excellently high selectivity and permeance for He separation, and it is hopefully inspired experimentalists to realize the promising He separation membrane based on the C 9 N 4 monolayer.

A new approach to produce porous membranes with dense or porous top layer is proposed in this work by employing a solvent-free method. PMMA/MAM formulations were selected as a base material in order to create open-cell or close-cell structures by gas dissolution foaming employing CO2 as a blowing agent. Furthermore, by introducing the gas diffusion barrier approach to CO2 dissolution foaming, it is possible to control the thickness of the dense layer in both edges, obtaining defect-free membranes (i.e., completely dense without pin-holes). The effectiveness of nanocellular polymers as gas separation membranes was evaluated. In this way, the permeability, selectivity, and permeance were correlated to the cellular structure (open or close-cell) as well as to the dense layer thickness. Furthermore, the effective thickness of the selective layer has been calculated from gas permeability measurements, obtaining an accurate control of that parameter from the tunable cellular structure. Therefore, membranes composed of desired selective layer and a porous structure as a mechanical support are produced by a solvent-free methodology.

Polyelectrolyte complex membranes (PECMs) were prepared by combining sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC) and gelatin (Ge) with variations in the Ge content in the NaCMC matrix. Characterization methods, such as infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), contact angle analysis (CA), and universal testing machines (UTM) were used to investigate the physicochemical studies of the prepared membranes. The pervaporation characteristics of membranes with Ge content were investigated using an azeotropic mixture of water and bioethanol. The obtained data revealed that the membrane with 15 mass% of Ge (M-3) showed a maximum flux of 7.8403 × 10−2 kg/m2·h with separation selectivity of 2917 at 30 °C. In particular, the total and water flux of PECMs are shown as very close to each other indicating that the fabricated membranes could be employed to successfully break the azeotropic point of water–bioethanol mixtures. Using temperature-dependent permeation and diffusion data, the Arrhenius activation parameters were calculated, and the obtained values of water permeation (Epw) were considerably smaller than bioethanol permeation (EpE). Developed membranes showed the positive heat of sorption (ΔHs), suggesting that Henry's sorption mode is predominant. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The data shared in this work represent aspects of the performance of reverse osmosis membranes during filtration. We present pressure, permeate flux, and solute rejection data gathered during cross-flow filtration experiments, which were used to (i) model water and solute permeation through the membranes and (ii) calculate concentration polarization moduli and a suite of transport properties, including water permeance, solute permeance, and water-solute selectivity. Membrane transport properties were calculated with the different approaches commonly used to simplify transport property calculations. Typical calculations of these transport properties often use simplifying assumptions (e.g., negligible concentration polarization and solute rejection close to 100%). However, the extent of the errors associated with using simplifying assumptions in this context were not previously known or quantified. This publication and corresponding dataset pertain to figures presented in the accompanying work (Armstrong et al., 2022) [1].

Accurate modeling of slotting and magnetic saturation effects has been two main challenges for analytical modeling of electric machines. In this article, first, different techniques such as sub‐domain (S‐D) model, winding function theory, magnetic equivalent circuit (MEC) model, and conformal mapping (CM) method are introduced to analytical model and analysis of electric machines. These techniques are also compared in terms of their accuracy, and computational complexity. Second, with respect to the comparison results, a new hybrid analytical model is presented for electromagnetic modeling of wound rotor induction motors, which consider the modeling accuracy of slotting and magnetic saturation effect, simultaneously. In this way, the air‐gap region is modeled by using S‐D model, and the iron parts are considered by using MEC model assisted by CMs. In final, the analytical results are verified by comparing with corresponding results obtained through finite element method and experiment set‐up.

A new and efficient analytical optimization methodology for the design of rotor features is developed and used in interior permanent magnet motors (IPM). The analytical methodology is based on an extended winding function theory to include the IPM rotor's primary and secondary reluctance paths and the non-homogeneous airgap of the rotor sculpt features. The shape and placement of the rotor features, derived from the analytical-based optimization process, show the improvement in torque average and torque ripple of the IPM machine at a fraction of computational effort. The analytical optimization results are validated with finite element analysis via an exhaustive search. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In Kenya, the mango (Mangifera indica L) cultivar 'Apple' is commercially important but it often suffers excessive russeting, which both compromises its appearance and impairs its postharvest performance. Together, these effects seriously reduce its market potential. Exposure to surface moisture is implicated in russeting of cv. 'Apple' mango. The objective was to establish the effect of bagging on russeting. Developing fruit were bagged at the onset of the exponential growth phase, using brown paper bags (Blue star®). Un-bagged fruit served as controls. The brown paper bags were selected because of their high permeance to water vapor. At harvest maturity, bagged fruit were larger, less russeted and had smaller lenticels than un-bagged control fruit. Staining with aqueous acridine orange in conjunction with fluorescence microscopy revealed numerous microcracks and larger lenticels on un-bagged control fruit but these were not evident on bagged fruit. Postharvest mass loss (principally water loss) of bagged fruit was lower than of un-bagged control fruit. In the un-bagged control fruit, the skin's water permeance increased as the russeted surface area increased (r2 = 0.88 **). Fruit skins were less permeable to water vapor than the brown paper bags. The brown paper bags contributed not more than 4.2 to 9.1% of the total in-series diffusion resistance of skin + bag. The masses of isolated cuticular membranes, and of dewaxed cuticular membranes, and of wax per unit surface area were higher for un-bagged control fruit than for bagged fruit. Bagged fruit were also greener and showed less blush. There was little difference in skin carotenoid content between bagged and un-bagged control fruit, but skin anthocyanin content was lower in bagged fruit. The rates of respiration and ethylene evolution of bagged fruit were lower than those of un-bagged control fruit. There were no differences between bagged and un-bagged control fruit in their organoleptic and nutritional properties including titratable acidity, total soluble sugars, sucrose, glucose, fructose, vitamin C and calcium content. In conclusion, bagging decreased russeting and increased postharvest performance of fruit of mango cv. 'Apple'. • Bagging increased fruit size and decreased cuticle thickness. • Bagging did not change background color, soluble solids or total acidity. • Bagging decreased anthocyanin content and blush area of the fruit surface. • Bagging reduced cuticular microcracking, russeting and postharvest water loss.

In this study, CuO nanoparticles and p-benzoquinone (p-BQ) were added to a polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) matrix to increase N2/CO2 selectivity. The added p-BQ allowed CuO to be distributed in a uniform size in the PVP/CuO composite membrane and the matrix to be flexible by forming the interaction with PVP. The surface modification of CuO by p-BQ and the well-dispersed size affected the increase in the separation performance. The PVP/CuO/p-BQ composite membranes showed an N2/CO2 selectivity of about 23.1 with N2 permeance of about 13.3 GPU, while the separation performance of PVP was not observed. The enhanced separation performance is attributable to the surface of CuO nanoparticles modified by p-BQ inducing CO2 molecules to be relatively slowly transported by the adsorption properties in the polymer matrix. The chemical properties and coordinative interaction for PVP/CuO/p-BQ composite membrane were measured by FT-IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, UV–vis, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy.

Exposure to surface moisture triggers cuticular microcracking of the fruit skin. In mango fruit cv. apple, microcracking compromises postharvest performance by increasing moisture loss and infections with pathogens. This study reports the effects of exposing the fruit’s skin to surface moisture on the incidence of microcracking and on water vapor permeance. Microcracking was quantified microscopically following infiltration with a fluorescent tracer. Water mass loss was determined gravimetrically. Moisture exposure increased cuticular microcracking and permeance. During moisture exposure, permeance increased over the first 4 d, remained constant up to approximately 8 d, then decreased for longer exposure times. Fruit development followed a sigmoid growth pattern. The growth rate peaked approximately 103 days after full bloom. This coincided with the peak in moisture-induced microcracking. There were no increases in water vapor permeance or in microcracking in control fruit that remained dry. When experimental moisture exposure was terminated, microcracking and water vapor permeance decreased. This suggests a repair process restoring the barrier properties of the fruit skin. Histological analyses reveal a periderm forms in the hypodermis beneath a microcrack. Our study demonstrates that surface moisture induces microcracking in mango cv. apple that increases the skin’s water vapor permeance and induces russeting.

BACKGROUND: Many organic solvents form difficult‐to‐separate mixtures with water and have an affinity for water, making drying a potential reuse prerequisite. Pervaporation (PV) and vapor permeation (VP) membrane technologies hold promise for energy‐efficient solvent drying. Several water‐selective membrane materials are commercially available, but performance data is limited, particularly for two recently commercialized membrane materials: chabazite (CHA) and T‐type zeolites. In this work, commercial‐grade samples of CHA and T‐type membranes, along with a NaA zeolite membrane, were evaluated for the removal of water from ethanol. RESULTS: The CHA sample had the highest initial PV water permeance (6820 GPU) and water permselectivity (3430) with 5 wt% water in ethanol at 50 °C. Initial NaA membrane performance was slightly lower (6060 GPU and 3260), while the T‐type membrane had the lowest initial permeance and selectivity (4260 GPU and 1090). Performance declined over time, most notably for the NaA membrane, for which water permeance fell over 50% through 39 days of testing. The T‐type membrane exhibited the steadiest PV water permeance, but the most variable ethanol permeance. CONCLUSION: The PV performance of the three membranes largely overlapped the predicted range for T‐type membranes. That performance generally exceeds the anticipated ethanol drying performance of non‐zeolitic PV membranes but is less than that predicted for NaA and CHA membranes. The present CHA membrane results, along with other recent reports, refine earlier predictions of the ethanol dehydration performance of that type of zeolite. The changing performance with time should be understood to properly design a solvent dehydration system. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry (SCI).

CHEMICAL vapor deposition , *SILICA - Abstract
With the aim of developing thermally/hydrothermally stable silica membranes for H 2 separation, dimethoxydimethylsilane-derived silica membranes were prepared via chemical vapor deposition (CVD) at various temperatures. This process employed a substrate having an intermediate layer with a gallium-loaded γ-alumina coating that had been calcined at 1073 K. The data demonstrate that this intermediate layer was itself thermally stable at 1073 K and hydrothermally stable at 973 K. A systematic evaluation of membrane performances under thermal/hydrothermal conditions confirmed that membranes prepared at 973 K were more stable than those fabricated at 873 K under dry conditions. In addition, the loss in H 2 permeance under hydrothermal conditions was lower in the case that the CVD temperature was 973 K. Hence, to ensure stability, the temperature at which such membranes are employed should be lower than the CVD processing temperature. Kazuki Akamatsu et al. [Display omitted] • Intermediate layer made by calcination at 1073 K was (hydro)thermally stable. • DMDMS-derived membrane prepared via CVD at 973 K was thermally stable even at 973 K. • That prepared at 973 K was more hydrothermally stable than that prepared at 873 K. • CVD temperature should be higher than the usage temperature to ensure the stability.

The electromagnetic noise generated by the Maxwell radial pressure is a well-known consequence. In this paper, we present an analytical tool that allows air gap spatio-temporal pressures to be obtained from the radial flux density created by surface permanent magnet synchronous machines with concentrated winding (SPMSM). This tool based on winding function, a global air-gap permeance analytical model and total magnetomotive force product, determines the analytical air-gap spatio temporal and spectral radial pressure.We will see step-by-step their impacts in generating noise process. Also two predictive methods will be presented to determine the origin of the lows radial pressure orders noise sources. The interest lies in keeping results very quickly and appropriate in order to identify the low order electromagnetic noise origin. Then through an inverse approach using an iterative loop a new winding function is proposed in order to minimize radial force low order previously identified and chosen.

19. Peel Russeting in ‘Apple’ Mango (Mangifera indica L.): Characterization, Mechanisms and Management
- Abstract
The aesthetic value and marketability of table fruits are greatly reduced by russeting, a disorder that severely affects the ‘Apple’ mango (Mangifera indica L.) cultivar in Kenya. Despite its prevalence, the underlying mechanisms and prevention strategies for russeting in mangoes are unknown. To address this gap in knowledge, this project aimed to: (1) review existing literature on russeting, (2) characterize the disorder in ‘Apple’ mango, (3) identify its mechanistic basis in comparison to a non-russet susceptible cultivar, (4) investigate the role of moisture and (5) lenticels on russeting, and (6) develop strategies to prevent the disorder. To achieve these objectives, russeting was quantified in ‘Apple’ mango within fruit and in different geographic locations in Kenya. Fruit skins and cuticles from russet susceptible ‘Apple’ and russet tolerant ‘Tommy Atkins’ mangoes were examined during fruit development, and cuticular strain was partitioned into its reversible and irreversible components. Mechanical properties of isolated cuticles from both cultivars were tested. The role of moisture in microcrack development and russeting was studied by partially wetting the fruit surface. Lenticels were characterized microscopically across cultivars and locations. Field studies were also conducted to establish the effect of pre-harvest bagging on russeting and postharvest performance. The results showed that russeting in ‘Apple’ mango increased with fruit development particularly in the stem end region. Russeting was triggered by rainfall and low temperature. The skin’s permeance to water vapor was larger in russeted than in non-russeted skin. The cuticle of ‘Apple’ mango was thinner than that of ‘Tommy Atkins’. Strains released on excision and isolation and wax extraction were higher in ‘Apple’ than in ‘Tommy Atkins’. Stiffness, fracture force, and strain at fracture were consistently lower in ‘Apple’ than in ‘Tommy Atkins’. Surface wetness induced microcracking and increas

21. Fabrication of battery separator by coating with sulfonated cellulose nanofibrils on kraft paper and inkjet paper substrates : Tillverkning av batteriseparator genom bestrykning med sulfonerad cellulosananofibriller på kraft papper och bläckstråle papper substrat
- Abstract
Modified nanocellulose have distinctive qualities and have drawn a lot of interest from a variety of fields. It is a natural, sustainable product that is manufactured from plant-based materials like wood and other renewable resources. It is also biodegradable. It is a possible material for battery separators because of its great mechanical strength, flexibility, and ability to create a stable and consistent membrane.

- Abstract
Modified nanocellulose have distinctive qualities and have drawn a lot of interest from a variety of fields. It is a natural, sustainable product that is manufactured from plant-based materials like wood and other renewable resources. It is also biodegradable. It is a possible material for battery separators because of its great mechanical strength, flexibility, and ability to create a stable and consistent membrane.

Membrane methods exhibit great potential for application in radioactive liquid waste treatment. In this work, we prepared a reduced graphene oxide using the amino-hydrothermal method (AH-rGO) that exhibited effective rejection rates of 99.9% for CoCl2, ZnCl2, NiCl2, and radionuclide 60Co solutions with an ultrahigh water permeance of >71.9 L m−2 h−1 bar−1. The thickness of the AH-rGO membranes affects the water permeance, as the membrane with a thickness of ≈250 nm has the highest water permeance of up to 125.1 L m−2 h−1 bar−1 with the corresponding rejection rate of 86.8%. Importantly, this is the most permeable membrane with a satisfactory level of the rejection rate for typical radioactive ions of Co2+, Zn2+, and Ni2+. Moreover, the AH-rGO membranes presented excellent stability. These findings demonstrate the potential of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) membranes for radioactive liquid waste treatment.

Polymer hollow fibre membranes are becoming more and more used for gas separation. In this work, asymmetric hollow fibre membranes were prepared by a phase inversion technique with three commonly used commercial polymers: polyethersulfone (PES), polyetherimide (Ultem® 1000), and polyimides (Matrimid® 5218). The effect of spinning parameters (composition of the dope and bore solution, bore flow rate, air gap distance, temperature of the spinneret and coagulation bath, as well as take-up speed) on the membrane morphology and gas permeation properties was investigated. The membrane separation performances were characterized in terms of gas transport properties (perméance/selectivity) for different gases (H2, CO2, O2, N2, CH4) to relate this information with their morphology studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Furthermore, dense flat membranes from the same materials were prepared by solvent casting to investigate the relationships between the gas separation performance and membrane configuration (hollow fibers vs. compact flat membrane). Finally, a comparison between the apparent skin layer thickness from O2 permeability/permeance and SEM image gave good agreement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It is known that permanent magnet vernier machine has multiple flux field harmonics which can produce stable torque. However, some flux field harmonics would create torque that undermines the torque output. Such as the 6slots26poles split-tooth PMVM here, of which modulated flux field outputs torque while fundamental flux field undermines torque output. In this paper, a 26poles PMVM with coding-shaped tooth is proposed. The coding-shaped tooth can introduce permeance harmonics with specific phase and amplitude, thus modulating flux fields that all output torque. Air-gap permeance harmonics of the proposed and the regular split-tooth PMVM are obtained via FEA. Based on MMF-permeance model, flux fields of two machines and their contributions to average torque are investigated, proving that the proposed machine has multiple flux fields that all output torque. By optimizing geometry of coding-shaped tooth, the proposed machine obtains largest average torque and smallest torque ripple simultaneously. Electromagnetic performances of the optimized machines are studied in semi-analytical way and FEA. It is proved that with same overall size, PM usage and copper loss, the proposed machine achieves 30% larger torque density, 86% smaller cogging torque and 62% lower torque ripple than its counterpart. Finally, a 16Nm (rated)prototype is built and tested.

This paper proposes an improved analytical model for fractional-slot concentrated-winding (FSCW) spoke-type permanent magnet (STPM) machines, where the impact of slotting on magnetomotive force (MMF) is elaborately considered. Firstly, the deficiency of the existing MMF-permeance model using Carters coefficient is discussed. It is found that adopting Carters coefficient will cause considerable prediction errors in flux density, especially for machines with a small equivalent airgap and considerable PM-MMF fluctuation. Secondly, an improved analytical model is proposed based on the relative permeance function and a simplified magnetic circuit model (MCM). The proposed model enables to predict common electromagnetic performance, such as PM flux density and back electromotive force (EMF) with more accuracy. Moreover, the radial forces exerted on the stator teeth can be predicted precisely as well, which is conducive to further vibration analysis. Both the experimental and finite element analysis (FEA) results indicate that the proposed model can enhance the characterization capability of slotting effect and improve performance prediction accuracy.

Poor modeling of air-gap is the main defect of conventional magnetic equivalent circuit (CMEC) model for performance analysis of electric machines. This paper presents an improved magnetic equivalent circuit (IMEC) which considers all components of air-gap permeance such as the mutual permeances between stator and rotor teeth, and the leakage permeances between adjacent stator teeth and adjacent rotor teeth in the air-gap. Since the conformal mapping (CM) method can accurately take into account the air-gap region, IMEC gets help from the CM method for calculating the air-gap permeance components. Therefore, the obtained model is a hybrid analytical model, which can accurately take into account the magnetic saturation in iron parts by using the CMEC, and the real paths of fringing flux, leakage flux, and the main flux in the air-gap by using the CM method. For a typical wound rotor induction motor, the accuracy of the results obtained by IMEC is verified by comparing them with the corresponding results determined through CMEC, improved conformal mapping (ICM), finite element method (FEM), and the experiment results.

The article presents a novel design of the axial active magnetic bearing with six poles. An analytical magnetic bearing model was developed to provide the axial magnetic induction distribution in 3D. The model utilizes magnetic vector potential formulation and Schwarz-Christoffel mapping. The paper covers in-depth deliberations on the end effect influence and the conjugate complex permeance function. Numerical model and simulations were provided in 3D mode with support of COMSOL Multiphysics software. The six pole axial active magnetic bearing was manufactured and investigated experimentally. Identification of the magnetic field distribution was carried out with a single axis magnetic induction sensor using custom automatic field scanner. High convergence of the modeling results and experimental research was demonstrated. The main advantage of the proposed analytical method is significantly shorter computation time compared to the numerical one that is useful from the modeling and controller study point of view. The configuration, modeling, simulation and experimental investigation results are well illustrated for the better overview.

In the present work, the high-temperature and long-term hydrothermal stability of novel polyPOSS-imide membranes for high-temperature hydrogen separation is investigated. The polyPOSS-imide membranes are found to exhibit an appropriate stability up to 300 °C. Above this temperature the membrane selectivity rapidly decreases, which is seemingly related to changes in the molecular structure coupled to silanol condensation forming siloxane groups. Surprisingly, the exposure of the membrane to temperatures of up to 300 °C even increases the H2 permeance together with the selective feature of the polyPOSS-imide layer. Subsequently, the long-term hydrothermal stability of the polyPOSS-imide membranes was investigated over a period of close to 1000 h at 250 °C exposing the membrane to 10 mol% steam in the feed. An increase in H2/CH4 selectivity was observed upon water addition, and even though a minor drop was noticed over time during the hydrothermal operation, the selectivity exceeds the initial selectivity obtained in the dry feed atmosphere. After the removal of steam from the feed the performance returns to its original state prior to the exposure to any steam showing an appropriate steam stability of the polyPOSS-imide membranes. A conceptual process design and assessment was performed for application of these membranes involving a combination of carbon reuse and electrification of the steel making process with co-production of hydrogen. The results indicate a CO2 avoidance of 14%. The CO2 reduction achieved using renewable electricity in the proposed scheme is a factor 2.76 higher compared to a situation where the same renewable electricity would be fed in the electricity grid.

Summary: High cost and complex fabrication process of inorganic membranes and lower position of pristine polymeric membranes in the Robeson upper bound curve urged the researchers to develop mixed matrix membranes (MMMs). Cellulose acetate being most commercially used polymer, dominates the market of CO2 separation mainly because of low cost and environmental friendly resource. In the present study, MMMs consists of amine functionalized zeolitic imidazolate framework (NH2‐ZIF‐8) and cellulose triacetate were fabricated for the first time. NH2‐ZIF‐8 was used as a filler because the pore size of ZIF‐8 is between the kinetic diameter of separating gases (CO2 and CH4). Moreover, NH2 group attached on the surface of ZIF‐8 has affinity with condensable gases like CO2. Morphology, crystallinity, tensile strength and functional groups of fabricated membranes were investigated using different analytical techniques. Results revealed that the increase of feed pressure has increased CO2 permeability and decreased permselectivity. However, improvements in gas separation performance were observed with the addition of nanofiller. Best position in Robeson's upper bound curve at 4 bar was obtained with 10 wt% loading with CO2 permeability and CO2/CH4 permselectivity of 218 barrer and 13.84, respectively. The improvement in the gas separation performance with loading is attributed to the increased diffusion coefficients as well as solubility coefficients, which was increased to 33% and 3.8%, respectively.

Producción Científica, A new approach to produce porous membranes with dense or porous top layer is proposed in this work by employing a solvent-free method. PMMA/MAM formulations were selected as a base material in order to create open-cell or close-cell structures by gas dissolution foaming employing CO2 as a blowing agent. Furthermore, by introducing the gas diffusion barrier approach to CO2 dissolution foaming, it is possible to control the thickness of the dense layer in both edges, obtaining defect-free membranes (i.e., completely dense without pin-holes). The effectiveness of nanocellular polymers as gas separation membranes was evaluated. In this way, the permeability, selectivity, and permeance were correlated to the cellular structure (open or close-cell) as well as to the dense layer thickness. Furthermore, the effective thickness of the selective layer has been calculated from gas permeability measurements, obtaining an accurate control of that parameter from the tunable cellular structure. Therefore, membranes composed of desired selective layer and a porous structure as a mechanical support are produced by a solvent-free methodology., Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (PRE2019-088820), EU NextGenerationEU/ PRTR program (PLEC2021-007705), FEDER (UE) (RTI2018 - 098749-B-I00, RTI2018 - 097367-A-I00, PID2021-127108OB-I00, PID2019-109403RB-C21/AEI/10.13039/501100011033, TED2021-13 0965B-I00 y PDC2022-133391- I00), Junta de Castilla y León and EU-FEDER program (CLU-2019-04 and VA202P20)

[Display omitted] • Double-layer PES/Pebax-Fe 3 O 4 membranes were fabricated by simultaneous co-casting. • A variable magnetic field (H = 0–5000 Oe) was applied during the fabrication of membranes. • Thick superparamegnetic channels with root-like structure were created on the surface. • O 2 and N 2 permeances of PES/Pebax membranes increased as a function of magnetic field. • O 2 /N 2 ideal selectivity of PES/Pebax-Fe 3 O 4 membrane improved by 40% under H = 4000 Oe. For industrial purposes and current challenges facing the world, the selective separation of oxygen and nitrogen gases from the air by polymer mixed matrix membranes is crucial. Due to the diamagnetic nature of water molecules used in the fabrication of the polymer membranes, the magnetic field (H) may affect the resulting separation performance. Here, using a simultaneous co-casting method, empty and superparamagnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticle-filled double-layer polyethersulfone (PES)/Pebax®1657 mixed matrix membranes are fabricated under different external magnetic field intensities in the range of H = 0–5000 Oe. The O 2 and N 2 permeances of the PES/Pebax® membranes are found to increase with increasing the magnetic field intensity, arising from an enhancement in the polymer chain mobility. The Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles form thick root-like superparamagnetic channels on the double-layer PES/Pebax® surface at a magnetic field intensity of 4000 Oe, resulting in an O 2 / N 2 ideal selectivity of 3.59 at a feed gas pressure of 10 bar. This indicates an improvement of 40% in the selectivity compared to a single-layer Pebax® membrane filled with Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, a method for the improvement of the calculation accuracy of the distributed parameter model (DPM) of electromagnetic devices is proposed based on the kriging basis function predictive identification program (PIP). Kriging is mainly an optimal interpolation method which uses spatial self-covariance, and takes a polynomial as the basis function. The accuracy of the kriging-based surrogate model can be improved by adjusting the related functions and hyperparameters. Based on the DPM of a solenoid valve, there exist certain errors in the estimation. They can be summarized as follows: Firstly, the estimation error of magnetic flux leakage (MFL) permeance is caused directly by the deviation of the magnetic flux tube due to the segmented magnetic field line. Secondly, the estimation error of soft magnetic resistance because of the nonlinearity of the permeability of soft magnetic material leads to the change of soft magnetic resistance alongside the magnetic flux. In this paper, an improved kriging error correction method is applied to modify the leak permeance and soft magnetic resistance calculation. The kriging basis function is adjusted to adapt to the data curve of the MFL permeance error data. The calculated MFL permeance data are compared with the error variation data to select the appropriate basis function. To improve the computational efficiency, the PIP is proposed to select the appropriate basis function. The modified MFL permeance data and soft magnetic resistance are substituted into the DPM for improving the computational accuracy and efficiency of the solenoid valve.

The thin wobble motors that are required to hold rating shafts employ an electropermanent magnet. This turns the holding force on and off by applying a momentary electrical pulse. To design the magnet devices without the need for finite element analyses, a theoretical force model is necessary for predicting the attractive force. In this paper, first, a force model is derived by estimating the permeance around the air gap. A magnetic circuit is constructed, employing a relatively simple method to build the model in clouding leakage flux. Thus, the basic structure and driving principle are also presented. Next, an analytical force model is constructed on the basis of distribution parameter analysis between the stator and the rotating shaft. The design of the electromagnet core and the control method are presented. Finally, a prototype model of the motor that is 30 mm in diameter and 7 mm in thick is fabricated. The two models are verified by comparing the results of FEM with the results of the experiments. They can properly predict the attractive force, so the thin wobble motor with holding force can be applied in portable electric equipment.

This article proposes an accurate and computationally efficient hybrid analytical (HA) model for the air-gap magnetic field computation of asymmetric-stator-pole flux reversal permanent magnet machine, which can provide a thorough insight into the working mechanism by taking the slotting effects into account. The proposed HA model combines the subdomain method and Schwarz–Christoffel (SC) transformation, which can account for the stator and rotor slotting effects, respectively. The subdomain method is first employed to predict the air-gap magnetic field considering the rotor slotting effect by converting the machine geometry to a slotless stator model. Afterward, a complex relative permeance function is obtained by the SC transformation, in which the stator slotting effect is taken into account. Finally, the complete air-gap magnetic field distribution of the machine can be efficiently predicted by the proposed HA analytical model. The effectiveness of the proposed HA model is verified by both finite-element analyses and experimental results.

A current transformer (CT) is a preferred device to harvest power in the high-voltage utility grid to power monitoring equipment. Widespread CT use is foreseen in future smart grid deployment. The most common CT use involves a laminated transformer iron split core installation around a high-voltage cable with a particular number of turns to power a load or burden. Less common is a gapless core installation to improve reliability and prevent CT degradation by avoiding gap corrosion. Even laminated high resistivity cores still suffer from eddy current loss. The goal is to design a core able to deliver the desired power at optimum number of turns, minimized dimensions, and minimal loss. This article focuses on the core permeance as a complex parameter, on core size, losses or efficiency, load impedance optimization, flux level, power factor performance, and the relationship between these parameters. A similar size split core shows reduced loss compared to a gapless core. Lossy cores can still operate relatively efficiently at low flux levels indicating that the load current should preferably approach the short circuit current. Notwithstanding nanocrystalline and ferrite material advantages, silicon-doped laminated iron remains the preferred choice for 50/60 Hz inductive power harvesting. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Hydrogen purification using palladium (Pd) membrane technology has been seen as a potential solution for producing pure hydrogen form hydrogen-rich gas. Compared to traditional practices of operating the permeate side of the membrane at atmospheric pressure, in this study, a vacuum is applied. The effects of various vacuum degrees applied to the permeate side of the Pd membrane are investigated and compared to the results under normal operation without a vacuum. The feed gas used for experiments consists of a mixture of hydrogen (70 vol%) and nitrogen (30 vol%). Three membrane operating temperatures (320, 350, and 380 °C), four pressure differences (2, 3, 4, and 5 atm) across the membrane, and four vacuum degrees (−15, −30, −45, and −53 kPa) applied to the permeate side are considered. For the three operating temperatures, the best improvements in the performance of hydrogen permeation are at 320 and 350 °C when a −53 kPa vacuum is applied, resulting in 79.4% and 79.1% improvements, respectively, compared to normal operations. Increasing temperatures leads to an increase in H 2 permeation both with and without a vacuum; however, best performances of H 2 permeation are observed in cases without a vacuum. Image 1 • A vacuum pressure greatly influences H 2 permeation compared to normal operating conditions. • A lower vacuum has a more significant effect on the improvement of H 2 permeation. • Vacuum conditions posed improves H 2 permeation up to 79% at 320 °C and 350 °C. • Increasing the H 2 partial pressure difference deteriorates the concentration polarization. • Vacuums aid in diminishing the concentration polarization on the membrane surface.

- Abstract
This paper presents a comparative study on the design, modelling, electromagnetic analysis based on finite-element software, fabrication and experiment on rectangular flat (148 g) and C-shaped (148 g) levitation prototypes based on steel plates. No mechanical restrainer has been used in the transverse direction for the levitation. This aspect of the work is an improvement over existing work reported in the published literature. The entire set-up has been designed, fabricated, analytically investigated and experimentally evaluated and verified. The finite-element model (FEM) has been derived using standard commercial package(s). The analytical model has been obtained using specific permeance concepts following Robert Pohl’s method. Excellent correlation between the predicted and experimental results is a highlight of the work. The stability against transverse mechanical perturbation has also been investigated. Control system design and implementation is successfully done. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, an analytical method (AM) based on the air-gap magnetomotive force (MMF) permeance model is proposed to predict the nonlinear instantaneous torque of switched reluctance machines (SRMs). The analytical expression of the air-gap MMF is first obtained from the winding function and current profile, while the air-gap magnetic permeance considering the double-sided slotting effects is also derived. Then, the nonsaturated field distribution along the air-gap circumference is presented based on which the instantaneous torque can be calculated from the Lorentz force law. Furthermore, the model is enhanced with a saturation distribution factor to include the nonlinear characteristics. The proposed method is free from preliminary data or empirical coefficient and benefits from the simplified model and solution. The AM will be validated by the two-dimensional finite-element method based on four SRMs with different structures. Moreover, an SRM prototype is manufactured for experimental verification.

Cost-effective porous alumina-mullite ceramic membrane supports were prepared from mixtures of different alumina/silica (Al 2 O 3 /SiO 2) ratios of coarse α-alumina micro-powder and colloidal silica (CS). The effects of sintering temperature, Al 2 O 3 /SiO 2 ratio and cornstarch content on the crystalline phase evolution, microstructures, porosity, bending strength, pore size distribution and permeance of the ceramic membrane supports were systematically investigated. The results showed that the increase in sintering temperature was beneficial to the mullite formation and the bending strength. However, it was adverse to the improvement of porosity and the pore size distribution which have positive correlation with the permeance of the supports. The increases in Al 2 O 3 /SiO 2 ratio and cornstarch were favourable to the mullite formation, improvement of porosity, pore size distribution and morphology of the supports, but were unfavourable to the bending strength. A high-performance porous alumina-mullite ceramic support with suitable porosity (50.5%) and pore size (3.1 μm), sufficient mechanical strength (49.7 MPa) and high permeances was successfully synthesized by optimizing the sintering temperature, Al 2 O 3 /SiO 2 ratio and cornstarch content. Moreover, the proposed simple method shows much potential for the preparation of high-performance porous alumina-mullite ceramic membrane supports. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Plasma enhancement gases (PEGs) (such as: N 2 , Ne, Ar and other inert gases) are injected into the plasma of several tokamaks in order to reduce the power load over the plasma facing components. The exhaust gas in the tokamak demonstration reactor (DEMO) consists of more than 90% of unburned fuel gas (D and T) and the remaining part will be He, PEGs and impurities. In DEMO reactor it is foreseen to recover the fuel gas and PEGs. For this purpose in this study a carbon molecular sieve (CMS) membrane and its precursor substrate have been tested at a permeation apparatus built at ENEA Casaccia laboratories. Single gas permeances for H 2 , He, N 2 and Ar were measured with a pressure drop across the membranes between 10 Pa up to 140 kPa at room temperature, 144 °C and 250 °C. We found that H 2 to N 2 selectivity at 250°C is equal to 47.68 while for H 2 to Ar is equal to 35.05. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The exhaust gas in the tokamak demonstration reactor (DEMO) consists of more than 90% of unburned fuel gas (D and T) and the remaining part will be He, PEGs and impurities. In DEMO reactor it is foreseen to recover the fuel gas and PEGs. The research focuses to remove the He from fuel gas and PEGs from fusion reactor. For this purpose, six commercial ceramic membranes have been tested at a permeation apparatus built at ENEA Casaccia laboratories. Single gas permeances for H 2 , He, Ar and air were measured with a pressure drop across the membranes between 10 Pa up to 100 kPa at room temperature. The selectivities found are low except for the 0.5 nm pore size membranes. The membranes have been supplied by Ceramiques Tecniques et Industrielles (CTI SA, France). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Membrane-based separation is an appealing solution to mitigate CO2 emission sustainably due to its energy efficiency and environmental friendliness. Attributed to its excellent separation endowed by nanomaterial incorporation, nanocomposite membrane is rigorously developed. This study explored the feasibility of boron nitride (BN) embedment and changes to formation mechanism of ultrathin selective layer of thin film nanocomposite (TFN) are investigated. The effects of amine-functionalization on nanosheet-polymer interaction and CO2 separation performance are also identified. Participation of nanosheets during interfacial polymerization reduced the crosslinking of selective layer, hence, improved TFN permeance while the formation of contorted diffusion paths by the nanosheets favors transport of small gases. Amine-functionalization enhanced the nanosheet-polymer interaction and elevated the membrane affinity towards CO2 which led to enhanced CO2 selectivity. The best TFN prepared in this study exhibited 37% and 20% increment in permeability and selectivity, respectively with respect to neat thin film composite (TFC). It is found that the CO2 separation performance of BN incorporated TFN is on par with many non-porous nanosheet-incorporated TFNs reported in literatures. The transport and barrier effects of BN and functionalized BN are discussed in detail to provide further insights into the development of commercially attractive CO2 selective TFN membranes.

In the present study, the effects of relative humidity on filtrating coal-fired fly ash with hydrophobic poly tetra fluoroethylene (PTFE) membranes were investigated. The intergranular force of particulate matter at different RH conditions was measured by analyzing the critical angle between particles. Effects of humidity (from 30% to 70%) on filtration pressure drop and membrane fouling conditions were characterized. It was found the membrane showed optimal filtration resistance of 530 Pa at RH of 60% and the gas permeance can be maintained at 1440 m3·m−2·h−1·kPa−1. Moreover, to optimize the operation parameters for this filtration system, effects of fly ash concentration, diameter, membrane pore size, and gas velocities were systematically investigated.

Variable flux memory machine (VFMM) is considered a promising solution for traction drives due to their distinctive merits of globally high efficiency over an extended operating range. However, the variable flux property of the low-coercive-force (LCF) permanent magnet (PM) together with an interior hybrid magnet rotor structure brings great challenges for the magnetic field modeling of VFMM. To address the above issues, this article proposes a new hybrid field analytical method for a recently developed hybrid-magnetic-circuit VFMM (HMC-VFMM), which combines the magnetic equivalent circuit (MEC) solution, the Schwarz–Christoffel (SC) transformation, and the subdomain model. First, the remanences of LCF PMs subject to different $d$ -axis magnetizing currents are determined by the MEC model, in which the nonlinear magnetic reluctances are calculated by the finite element (FE) model. Subsequently, the air-gap flux density distributions of the slotless stator model under different magnetization states (MSs) are predicted by adopting the open-circuit MEC model. Afterward, the relative permeance function is obtained by using SC transformation considering the stator slotting effect. Then, the no-load flux density distributions of the machine under different MSs are predicted by the proposed method. Besides, a subdomain model taking into account the armature reaction is employed to further obtain the torque characteristic of the machine. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by both FE simulations and test results.
