The 70Th Southeastern Regional Meeting of the American Chemical Society The 70th Southeastern Regional Meeting of the American Chemical Society October 31 - November 3, 2018 Augusta, GA Program 70th Southeastern Regional Meeting of the American Chemical Society Augusta Marriott at the Convention Center October 31 - November 3, 2018 Hosted by the ACS-Savannah River Section 2 SERMACS 2018 “Security Tomorrow Through Inovation Today” Augusta Marriott at the Convention Center, Augusta, Georgia General Co-Chairs’ Welcome On behalf of the Savannah River Section and the 2018 organizing committee, we want to welcome you to the 70th South- eastern Regional Meeting of the American Chemical Society (SERMACS 2018). With over 1140 abstracts, 46 exhibitors, and 34 graduate schools, this year’s meeting is definitely “Linking Chemistry in the Southeast” – to quote from our 2006 theme. Those of you visiting the Central Savannah River Area (CSRA) for the first time will find many exciting activities to explore. We have tried to promote the colloquialism that is the hallmark of regional meetings through a number of special events where you can meet and network amongst your colleagues from throughout the southeast, the nation, and 13 countries. Please join us for the ACS Division of Professional Relations (PROF) sponsored Trick-or-Treat Networking Reception in the Olmstead B Exposition Hall, for the National Historic Chemical Landmark (NHCL) Dedication and Reception at the SRS Heritage Museum in Aiken, SC, or the Fermentation Chemistry Social at the Savannah River Brewing Company, where you can dine at local Food Trucks, drink local brew, enjoy a tour of the brewery, and play some games. There are a number of new features at this year’s meeting. First, there have been some technology improvements since the last time we hosted SERMACS in Augusta. The technical abstracts are now available for download from our website rather than being distributed on a thumb drive as they were in 2006. The entire meeting program is now available via the ACS Meet- ings App for your smart phone or tablet, and this method of distribution saves over 100,000 printed pages of paper. A PDF copy of the program is still available on the website for you to download to your computer, tablet, or phone. We are also promoting some green initiatives. Presenters, panelists, and presiders received an Al water bottle to fill at the hotel’s water stations, and we have attempted to limit the number of disposable water bottles distributed during the meeting at receptions and events. Be sure to check out the “Green Corner” in the main conference area. Please join us in congratulating this year’s award recipients of the Stanley C. Israel Regional Award for Advancing Diversity in the Chemical Sciences, the E. Ann Nalley Regional Award for Volunteer Service, and the Southeastern Regional Award for Excellence in High School Teaching at the Awards Luncheon, where you will enjoy a terrific hot meal and learn about ACS His- tory from our luncheon speaker. Twenty recipients of our Undergraduate Diversity Travel Grants will be recognized along with our 50/60/70 ACS members at the Diversity in Science Luncheon, and hear a presentation on “Breaking Diversity Boundaries through Self-Awareness”. As with any major technical meeting, this year’s SERMACS would not have been possible without the generous support of our sponsors and vendors. In particular we would like to thank our Platinum Sponsor, the Savannah River National Laboratory op- erated by Savannah River Nuclear Solutions, LLC, and our four Gold Sponsors, Eastman Chemical, AmbioPharm, the ACS Division of Professional Relations, and the ACS Office of the President. Please visit this year’s Exposition and thank the vendors for their time and expense in helping to promote regional meetings. The 2018 Organizing Committee has worked tirelessly to bring this meeting to you. Many of them have been at this activity for over four years, but all have given countless hours, taken time from their families and friends, and worked late into the night to ensure this is the best Southeastern Regional Meeting possible. To all of them, we say thank you. And to all of you we say welcome, enjoy the meeting! Christopher J. Bannochie, Ph.D. Tad Whiteside, Ph.D. General Co-Chair General Co-Chair Councilor, Savannah River Section 3 SERMACS 2018 “Security Tomorrow Through Inovation Today” Augusta Marriott at the Convention Center, Augusta, Georgia American Chemical Society 1155 SIXTEENTH STREET, N.W. OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT WASHINGTON, D.C. 20036 Phone 202-872-4461 Peter K. Dorhout, Ph.D. Fax 202-872-6338 President-Elect, 2017 President, 2018 Immediate Past President, 2019 October 31, 2018 Dear Southeastern Regional Meeting of ACS participants, On behalf of all the members of the American Chemical Society, I am happy to welcome all of you to the beautiful city of Augusta, Georgia for the 2018 Southeastern Regional Meeting of ACS. The meeting’s theme is “Securing Tomorrow through Innovation Today” with symposia focusing on analytical, biological, medicinal, organic, nanomaterial, nuclear, and physical chemistry. Symposia highlights include both the “Putting Science to Work at SRNL”, exploring the multidisciplinary work being conducted at the Savannah River National Laboratory and “Pu-238 Production & Use” focusing on the research and discoveries associated with the Savannah River Site’s designation as a National Historic Chemical Landmark. The Cope Scholar Symposium will honor the career of M. G. Finn of the Georgia Institute of Technology and will be paired with programming on organic synthesis tools. Plenary speakers include Alan Marshall of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory Ion Cyclotron Resonance Facility and Florida State University, Cato Laurencin of the University of Connecticut School of Medicine, Jillian Buriak of the University of Alberta, and Dale Ensor of Tennessee Tech University. ACS on Campus will offer workshops on using SciFinder, preparing manuscripts, and taking advantage of ACS resources. The ACS Leadership Development System is conducting workshops titled “Leading Change” and “Coaching & Feedback.” Four ACS Career Pathways courses will cover choosing a career path and topics in developing networking and interviewing skills. Please take advantage of sessions to help you in your chemistry career, both precollege and undergraduate programming. Also, be sure to stop by the exhibition to meet with company representatives and learn about the latest products on the market. You will find plenty of opportunities to network, socialize, and share your science with colleagues throughout the Awards Luncheon and multiple luncheons. I want to express my special thanks to the SERMACS general chairs, Chris Bannochie and Tad Whiteside, and to our hosts at the Savannah River Local Section for their hard work and dedication to create a great experience here in lovely Augusta. Have a wonderful and safe SERMACS 2018! Sincerely, Peter K.

Thermal energy storage (TES) systems correct the mismatch between the solar supply and the power demand. TES makes it possible to meet the intermediate load profile with dispatchable power, a benefit that has a high value to power utilities and that gives concentrating solar power (CSP) technology an edge over photovoltaic and wind power. Hence, TES is a key technology for solar thermal energy utilization with growing present and future importance. This chapter focuses on material aspects of alkali nitrate salts. They include thermal properties, thermal decomposition processes, steel corrosion issues and phase diagrams of multicomponent salt systems. In addition, two CSP applications using molten nitrate salts as sensible and latent TES are discussed. Keywords: nitrates, nitrites, phase change materials (PCM), corrosion, heat transfer fluids, thermophysical properties, thermal decomposition, phase diagrams, multicomponent salt systems. 1 Chapter 20 in “Molten Salts Chemistry: From Lab To Applications”, edited by Lantelme, F.

In this context, MgO is a promising solid CO2 sorbent, as the energy penalty sorbent regeneration is comparatively small, but it requires the addition of promoters, typically alkali metal nitrates, to yield acceptable kinetics.
