Vital work is being carried out across engineering to ensure the net-zero commitments as laid out in the Paris agreement are met. Due to increased government investment, carbon capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS) has become key to achieving these commitments, with some industries only able to decarbonise through CCUS, such as concrete or fertiliser production. Carbon capture has also moved away from vertically integrated systems, with single emitters having dedicated downstream transport and storage sites, to larger systems gathering CO2 with a shared transport and storage infrastructure.

Development And Application Of A Thermochemical Database (MSTDB-TC) To Modeling Corrosion In Molten Salt Reactors

Accurate representations of the thermochemistry and phase equilibria of relevant molten salt constituents and their aggregate behavior are critical to the development, design, operation, and licensing of any molten salt reactor (MSR). This need is currently being addressed by the creation of a dedicated, high quality/validated MSR thermochemical database, the Molten Salt Thermal Properties Database-Thermochemical (MSTDB-TC). MSTDB-TC is being populated with prioritized models and values for vapor species, and liquid and crystalline phases of chloride and fluoride fuel and coolant salts with relevant fission product and transuranic elements, and more recently with corrosion-relevant systems with chromium, iron, and nickel. Multi-cation crystalline and melt solution models are being incorporated, including newly developed relations as necessary, to obtain real system behavior.

Geothermal power holds immense potential as a renewable energy source with low emissions utilizing the Earth's natural heat to generate electricity. With growing concerns over climate change and the need for sustainable energy alternatives, geothermal power can provide energy independence, economic benefits, and versatility. Mineral scaling has been recognized as a major hindrance in seamless geothermal operations due to the harsh and diverse operating conditions, which can cause significant issues resulting in higher operating costs while reducing energy production's efficiency and overall economic feasibility. Therefore, there is a growing need for a tool that can help in designing preventive and remedial strategies against mineral scaling and, in effect, ensure seamless operation while reducing costs associated with equipment failure. A few of the most commonly occurring scales in geothermal operations across different regions are amorphous silica (SiO2), metal silicates, and calcite (CaCO3). Formulating an effective theoretical framework to identify the critical conditions and characteristics of scaling solids is imperative in devising preventive and/or remedial measures. This multi-faceted problem requires the simultaneous modeling of solution thermodynamics and kinetics. In this work, we propose a novel modeling scheme through the incorporation of the classical nucleation theory (CNT) with the Mixed-Solvent Electrolyte (MSE) thermodynamic model. While MSE assesses scaling risk based on the effective evaluation of the solution chemistry, CNT provides kinetic information, i.e., an estimate of induction time, based on the continuum thermodynamics treatment of clusters. This work focuses on applying the novel theoretical approach in providing accurate thermodynamic modeling of the scales and subsequent applications of the kinetic modeling in deriving remedial techniques. The theoretical framework aims to provide a consistent approach for testing various what-if scenarios and aid in making the best operational solution in the development of flow assurance.
