Synthesis of Spherical Carbonaceous Particles via Spray Drying from Coal-Based Precursors for Energy
A process has been developed to convert coal, or waste streams from coal processing (e.g., coal refuse) into graphite for use as anode in lithium-ion batteries.
When a magnetic field is applied to a type-II superconductor, it penetrates the superconductor in a thin cylindrical line known as a vortex line. Traditional methods to manipulate these vortices are limited in precision and affect a broad area.
Method for separating bulky solids from powders in an automated fashion. Powders are particularly challenging to work with in an automated workflow employing robots for chemical manipulation.
Standard stages for X-ray diffraction are designed to carry holders that are relatively large. This imposes a significant space constraint that can reduce the number of samples analyzed.
2,3-butanediol (BDO) is a chemical compound with many industrial uses, including as a biofuel precursor and an additive to aviation fuel. 2,3-BDO can be produced from biomass, making it a more sustainable fuel source, but it must be separated and purified before utilization.
In additive printing that utilizes multiple robotic agents to build, each agent, or “arm”, is currently limited to a prescribed path determined by the user.
This invention discusses the methodology to calibrating a multi-robot system with an arbitrary number of agents to obtain single coordinate frame with high accuracy.
