A Flexible Fuel Ultra-low NOx Process Burner
SBC: CLEARSIGN TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION Topic: C5421cIndustrial heating processes are a significant contribution to global carbon emissions. There is an urgent need to reduce these emissions by decarbonizing such processes. While transitioning to hydrogen-based fuels is a promising solution, there are no existing process burners that can operate with 100% hydrogen and still comply with strict NOx emission requirements. To tackle this challenge, Clea ...

A resilient PV solar plant with enhanced grid reliability services and integrated multi-MW EV-charging infrastructure for 2x faster and 50% lower cost implementation
SBC: StoredgeAI LLC Topic: C5615fWe propose a fundamentally new balance of plant (BOP) architecture for a PV solar system integrated with battery storage and heavy-duty EV fleet charging infrastructure. These PV solar systems are 1- 10s of MW in size, with a 2 to 4-hour battery and several MWs of EV charging electronics. Usually known as microgrids, these integrated PV systems connect to the bulk power systems, providing resilien ...

Dual functional reactor for direct air capture of carbon dioxide and production of oxygenated hydrocarbons in one pot
SBC: MOLECULE WORKS INCORPORATED Topic: C5625bThere are a few major challenges associated with direct air capture (DAC) of carbon dioxide, including 1) lowering capture costs and 2) disposal or usage of the captured carbon dioxide. On the other hand, converting carbon dioxide with renewable electricity into useful products and/or fuels has been hindered by the problems of 1) high costs and 2) availability of carbon dioxide. A new technology - ...

Cost Effective Real-Time Flare Gas Characterization for Optimizing Methane Destruction Efficiency
SBC: NARION CORPORATION Topic: C5627aThe oil and gas industry relies on flaring to reduce the venting of methane into our atmosphere. Currently, without a cost-effective method to capture and utilize these gases, flaring is the most environmentally friendly method for abating greenhouse gasses. When operated properly, flares are assumed to be 98% efficient at burning methane. Recent studies have shown that in reality, flaring operati ...

FeaturePrint: Computer Vision for Pebble Bed Reactors' Material, Control, and Accounting
SBC: ALITHEON INC Topic: C5640nC56-40n-272712The limiting factor in previous imaging approaches to material, control, and accounting of pebbles going through pebble bed reactors was the ability to reliably identify hundreds of thousands of unique pebbles in a short time. Moreover, the secondary approach of identifying types of pebbles does support fresh fuel loading by distinguishing fuel pebbles from moderator pebbles, but sti ...
