Impacts of refining Canadian partially upgraded bitumen: Fluid catalytic cracking

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract In this study, we examine the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) performance of vacuum gas oil (VGO) from partially upgraded bitumen (PUB), a novel refinery feedstock from Canadian bitumen. FCC experiments were conducted in a lab‐scale FCC unit with VGOs from two different PUBs prepared using thermal cracking and solvent deasphalting, along with ...

Temperature‐Dependent Kinetics of Plasma‐Based CO2 Conversion: Interplay of Electron‐Driven and Thermal‐Driven Chemistry

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The transformation of CO2 into chemical building blocks is essential for a net‐zero energy future. Plasma‐chemical processing offers promising potential to achieve this. Here, we explore a temperature‐dependent plasma‐chemical reaction mechanism, revealing a shift from electron‐driven to thermal‐driven CO2 conversion regimes.

Purification of Li2CO3 Obtained through Pyrometallurgical Treatment of NMC Black Mass from Electric Vehicle Batteries

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
Lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) obtained from the black mass of recycled lithium batteries is dissolved in water under controlled conditions to remove lithium fluoride (LiF), which is present at a concentration of 3.08 % by weight. The dissolution is carried out at temperatures below 10 °C, and it has been demonstrated that lower temperatures result in ...

Structural Properties of Yukawa One‐Component Plasmas Revisited

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACTYukawa one‐component plasmas are fully described in terms of the Coulomb coupling parameter Γ$$ \Gamma $$ and the screening parameter κ$$ \kappa $$. One of their remarkable properties is the existence of lines of constant effective coupling, Γeff(Γ,κ)$$ {\Gamma}_{\mathrm{eff}}\left(\Gamma, \kappa \right) $$, along which their short‐range ...

An Estimation of the Heat Load Distribution on the Divertor Target Using the CSD Model

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Handling the heat load on the divertor target is a critical issue in the design of fusion reactors. Estimating the heat load, supported by computationally efficient simulations with varying design parameters, provides valuable input to high‐level design discussions and the development of design guidelines.

Coupling Fluid Neutrals to Gyrokinetic Plasma Dynamics for Edge and SOL Turbulence Simulations

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate modeling of turbulent transport in magnetic confinement fusion devices requires extending first‐principles gyrokinetic simulations from the core to the edge and scrape‐off layer (SOL), where additional physics—particularly plasma–neutrals interactions—must be included.

Edge Fluid Turbulence Simulations of Stellarators With GRILLIX

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The edge fluid turbulence code GRILLIX has recently been extended from axisymmetric tokamak geometries to support 3D stellarator configurations. Following successful proof‐of‐principle simulations published in Stegmeir et al., we present here a comprehensive simulation of the Wendelstein 7‐AS stellarator.

Implementation of the E×B and Grad‐B Drift in the EMC3 Code and Verification Using the Method of Manufactured Solutions

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective management of particle and power exhaust is essential for fusion reactor operation, requiring accurate 3D modeling of divertor physics. The EMC3 code is a well‐established Monte Carlo tool for plasma transport in stellarator edge regions, but until now lacked E×B$$ E\times B $$ and diamagnetic drifts.

Effect of Magnetic Islands on Neoclassical Heat Diffusivity in a Global Tokamak Simulation

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) alter magnetic field topology via island formation and can modify core transport in toroidal fusion devices. Using the global gyrokinetic particle‐in‐cell code XGC‐S, originally developed for stellarator geometries, we quantify how island topology affects neoclassical heat transport in a circular tokamak ...
