Rio de Janeiro – RJ – Brazil, ZIP 219141-915. (Submitted: June 1, 2016; Revised: March 20, 2017; Accepted: April 5, 2017) Abstract - In order to inhibit natural gas hydrate formation, monoethyleneglycol (MEG) is usually injected into producing well heads. The MEG regeneration process is continuously performed at the platform. Scaling problems usually occur due to the presence of chlorides and carbonates. This work presents salt solubility data for the aqueous system with strontium carbonate, MEG and carbon dioxide. A specific analytical method was developed. Thus, experimental data for strontium carbonate (SrCO3) solubility at various carbon dioxide pressures are reported. Solubilities of SrCO3 in water were measured from 760 to 1610 mmHg at 278.15. 288.15. 298.15 and 323.15 K. For the mixed solvent (ms) conditions, solubilities were measured at 298.15 K and four isobars, i.e., 760, 1210, 1410 and 1520 mmHg. Experimental data were correlated and demonstrated to be accurate for thermodynamic modeling and process simulation.

  • Nanoscale Effects of Strontium on Calcite Growth: a Baseline for Understanding Biomineralization in the Absence of Vital Effects
    Nanoscale Effects of Strontium on Calcite Growth: A Baseline for Understanding Biomineralization in the Absence of Vital Effects Darren Scott Wilson Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Geological Sciences Patricia M. Dove, Chair J. Donald Rimstidt James. J. De Yoreo May 8, 2003 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Biomineralization, Calcite, Strontium, Growth, Atomic Force Microscopy Copyright 2003, Darren Scott Wilson Nanoscale Effects of Strontium on Calcite Growth: A Baseline for Understanding Biomineralization in the Absence of Vital Effects Darren Scott Wilson (ABSTRACT) This study uses in situ atomic force microscopy (AFM) to directly observe the atomic scale effects of Sr on the monomolecular layer growth of abiotic calcite. These insights are coupled with quantitative measurements of the kinetics and thermodynamics of growth to determine the direction-specific effects of Sr on the positive and negative surface coordination environments that characterize calcite step edges. Low concentrations of strontium enhance calcite growth rate through changes in kinetics. A new conceptual model is introduced to explain this behavior. Higher concentrations of strontium inhibit and ultimately stop calcite growth by a step blocking mechanism. The critical supersaturation required to initiate growth (s*) increases with increasing levels of strontium. At higher supersaturations, strontium causes growth rates to increase to levels greater than those for the pure system. The step blocking model proposed by Cabrera and Vermilyea in 1958 does not predict the experimental data reported in this study because the dependence of s* upon strontium concentration is not the same for all supersaturations.

  • Investigation Into Sro/Srco3 for High Temperature Thermochemical Energy Storage
    Solar Energy 160 (2018) 85–93 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Solar Energy journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/solener Investigation into SrO/SrCO3 for high temperature thermochemical energy T storage ⁎ Elham Bagherisereshki1, Justin Tran1, Fuqiong Lei, Nick AuYeung School of Chemical, Biological, and Environmental Engineering, Oregon State University, Corvallis, OR 97331, USA ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Global energy needs are continuously increasing while fossil fuels remain an uncertain resource. With a growing Solar thermochemistry population and increasing demand for energy, alternative energy is being pursued to power the future. Solar thermochemical Concentrated solar power (CSP) is a promising method of converting solar energy into electricity and works in Solar thermochemical energy storage conjunction with thermal energy storage (TES) to allow for power generation beyond on-sun hours. One method Carbonation cycles of TES is thermochemical energy storage (TCES), which is based on storing chemical energy via reversible reactions. An SrO/SrCO3 carbonation cycle offers high temperature heat (ca. 1200 °C), leading to higher effi- ciencies. The carbonation reaction was further investigated to determine the effects of particle size, temperature, partial pressure of CO2, and heat treatment temperature. Unfortunately, high temperatures cause materials to sinter, resulting in a decrease in reactivity over multiple cycles. The use of an inert diluent may help to inhibit sintering by acting as a physical barrier between the particles. Stored energy density of SrO/SrCO3 systems supported by CaSO4 and Sr3(PO4)2 was investigated for multiple cycles of 1150 °C exothermic carbonation followed by 1235 °C decomposition. At 25 and 50 wt%, Sr3(PO4), stable energy densities of roughly 500 ± 0.05 kJ/kg are achieved.
