Zia .......................................................................................... 54 ii Overview The Institute for Fundamental Research in Separation Science (IFFRISS) is dedicated to solving problems of crucial importance to the separations industry. In collaboration with Industrial Members, mathematical, computational, and experimental methods will be applied to understand the flow of complex fluids near and through porous media and to design new self-assembled materials enabling new separations processes and improved versions of current processes. These inherently complicated problems are central to filtration, chromatography, coalescence, and other separation and purification processes which are in turn essential for clean air, clean water, biopharmaceutical and integrated circuit production, petrochemical refining, industrial waste remediation and many other socially and industrially important applications. The need for improving separation processes is highlighted by the National Academy of Engineering1 list of 14 “Grand Challenges for Engineering in the 21st Century”, two of which are clean water and improved medicines. The goals of IFFRISS are to deliver value to our Industrial Members in the form of: • Predictive and practical product design tools for separation materials, processes, and equipment; • Novel materials for previously unattainable applications; • Continual improvement of Members’ understanding of, and ability to apply, new developments in the separations sciences; and • Newly graduated scientists and engineers educated for careers in separations and related industries. Open, precompetitive, research will be funded by pooled membership fees. It is anticipated this proof of industrial interest will eventually attract additional funding from government and other nonprofit agencies. The cost of each industrial membership is $50,000/year with a minimum three year commitment. Separation problems are complex but generally have not elicited a high level of academic interest. As a result, the technology has evolved relatively slowly and commercial equipment design remains excessively dependent on expensive and time consuming iterative testing. At the same time, problems in oil exploration, energy storage, medicine, and human physiology, for example, have spurred significant academic the study of porous media, complex fluids (e.g. colloidal, macromolecular, and polymer suspensions), and self-assembly methods for nanostructured materials. IFFRISS will apply and extend this research to solve problems for the separation industry. The Institute is housed within the Cornell University Center for Nanomaterials Engineering and Technology (CNET), a new open research laboratory in the College of Engineering. CNET is an 1 http://www.engineeringchallenges.org/cms/challenges.aspx 1 outcome of the large and continuing investment in complex fluid and self-assembled nanomaterials at Cornell and makes it possible for the Institute to conduct world class research supported by a modest investment in students, postdocs, and minor specific instrumentation. The majority of the Institute faculty are in residence at Cornell and have globally recognized expertise in modeling, measurement and visualization of complex fluid flows, and in design, fabrication, and visualization of nanoparticles, and self-assembled materials. IFFRISS has enlisted the support of Applied Mathematics faculty at Oxford University who have a long successful history of solving a broad range of industrial problems. Institute workshops based on their highly successful “Study Group” method will promote close collaboration between faculty and industrial members. In addition, to ensure the Institute remains on the leading edge of membrane technology, the institute has among its faculty two members of the National Academy of Engineering. Professor Georges Belfort at RPI is an internationally recognized expert in biomolecular separations and protein interactions. Professor Menachem Elimelech at Yale is an internationally recognized expert in advanced filtration technologies for potable water treatment. IFFRISS will achieve its goals through well targeted research projects and frequent interaction with Industrial Members. An initial set of mathematical and computational modeling as well as experimental visualization and characterization projects is described in this prospectus to give members a reasonable understanding of the vision for open, precompetitive research. The inaugural projects, from this list or not, will be selected in collaboration

    Energy Frontier Research Centers Technical Summaries September 2020 https://science.osti.gov/bes/efrc INTRODUCTION Since its inception in 2009, the U. S. Department of Energy’s Energy Frontier Research Center (EFRC) program has become an important research modality in the Department’s portfolio, enabling high impact research that addresses key scientific challenges for energy technologies. Funded by the Office of Science’s Basic Energy Sciences program, the EFRCs are located across the United States and are led by universities, national laboratories, and private research institutions. These multi-investigator, multi- disciplinary centers bring together world-class teams of researchers, often from multiple institutions, to tackle the toughest scientific challenges preventing advances in energy technologies. In 2009 five-year awards were made to 46 EFRCs, including 16 that were fully funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). An open recompetition of the program in 2014 resulted in four- year awards to 32 centers, 22 of which were renewals of existing EFRCs and 10 of which were new EFRCs. In 2016, DOE added 4 new four-year centers to accelerate the scientific breakthroughs needed to support the Department’s environmental management and nuclear cleanup mission. An open recompetition in 2018 resulted in 42 awards: 11 two-year extensions of existing EFRCs, 9 four-year renewals of existing EFRCs, and 22 four-year awards for new EFRCs. A targeted competition in environmental management, microelectronics, polymer upcycling, and quantum information science in 2020 resulted in 10 awards: 2 two-year extensions of existing EFRCs, 2 four-year renewals of existing EFRCs, and 6 four-year awards for new EFRCs.

Archer Professor School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Cornell University Nanoporous Hybrid Electrolytes for Lithium Metal Batteries Secondary batteries capable of reliably storing and delivering large amounts of electrical energy are key components in various contemporary and emerging technologies, such as electric vehicles, autonomous aircraft and advanced robotics. Batteries based on lithium metal anodes are understood to be among the most promising for achieving high specific elec- trochemical storage capacities and high cell voltages. Development of practical rechargeable lithium metal batteries (LMBs) remains a challenge, however, due to unstable electrodeposition of lithium and dendrite formation during repeated cycles of charge and discharge. Using a continuum transport model for lithium deposition in a binary electrolyte, I will show that electrodeposition at the lithium anode in a LMB can be stabilized through rational design of the electrolyte, salt, and anode/electrolyte interface. Building upon these ideas, the talk will explore structure, dynamics and electrochemical properties of novel nanoparticle salts and nanoporous hybrid electrolyte configurations that stabilize the lithium metal anode against dendritic electrodepo- sition and failure. Finally, I will show that application of these electrolyte/separator designs to full-cell LMBs lead to simple battery configurations that offer enhancements in storage capacity and cell lifetime relative to state-of-the-art lithium ion batteries. BioSketch: Lynden Archer is the William C. Hooey Director and Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and co-Director of the KAUST-Cornell Center for Energy and Sustainability at Cornell University.
