FIB-tomography data of Ni-YSZ anodes for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC): Comparison of pristine and degraded materials (before/after redox cycling)

Contents: This dataset contains 3D image stacks acquired with FIB-tomography from Ni-YSZ cermet anodes for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC). The data was collected from three different Ni-YSZ anodes (fine-, medium- and coarse-grained). Each of these anodes was investigated first in pristine state (after sintering and reduction) and then also in degraded state (after exposure to 8 redox cycles). The 6 tomographs are then presented as stacks of 2D-tiff-images in 2 different versions: as gray-scale images (raw data) and as segmented images (Ni=white, YSZ=gray and pores=black). In total this gives 12 image stacks. Further details, such as the voxel resolutions and image window sizes are listed in the downloadable excel file (2_3D_Data_Info.xlsx).   Scientific Context: The microstructures of the cermet anodes were investigated for the purpose of optimizing the anode performance, which depends on effective transport properties (i.e. conductivity of ions in YSZ and of electrons in Ni, as well as diffusivity of fuel/gas in the pores). Furthermore the anode performance also depends on the catalytic/electrochemical activity (i.e. Ni-surface area and three phase boundary length TPBL). The microstructure characteristics have a strong influence on effective properties, electrochemical activity and associated anode performance. Furthermore, microstructure degradation (e.g. by Ni-coarsening) may lead to performance loss over time. Hence, the investigations focus on a fundamental, quentitative understanding of the relationships between microstructure characteristics and effective properties. The study reveals quantitative descriptions of all relevant microstructure characteristics (porosity, tortuosity, constrictivity, surface/interface areas, TPBL) and of the corresponding effective transport porperties (electric and ionic.conductivities). The corresponding anode performance was characterized by impedance spectroscopy. The quantitative results of the microstructure investigation were published in: Pecho et al 2015a (doi:10.3390/ma8095265), Pecho et al 2015b (doi:10.3390/ma8105370), Holzer et al 2013 (doi: 10.1016/j.jpowsour.2013.05.047), Holzer et al 2011a (doi: 10.1016/j.jpowsour.2010.08.017) and Holzer et al 2011b (doi: 10.1016/j.jpowsour.2010.08.006).

Impact of Freeze-thaw Cycles on Coatings Applied to the Surface of Alkali-activated Materials

This paper focuses on the possibility of applying selected types of coatings (synthetic and epoxy) on the surface of alkali-activated materials based on finely ground granulated blast furnace slag with an admixture of cement by-pass dust and silica fly ash. Admixtures represent 30% of the binder component (15% fly ash, 15% cement by-pass dust). The mixture is activated with anhydrous disodium metasilicate. The samples were categorized into two series samples stored in water and samples wrapped in foil. Following this, the surface of these two series was modified by two methods, namely brushing with a steel brush and roughening with a diamond wheel. The properties related to the adhesion of the coating to the surface were mainly investigated before and after 100 freeze-thaw cycles. The cross-cut method and pull-off test for adhesion determined the adhesion. The cross-cut test found that the synthetic coating was less susceptible to surface modification than the epoxy coating. The samples were exposed to 100 freeze-thaw cycles. Then, the cross-cut method was applied to the coated roughened surface and the results of this test were classified into category 3. During the determination of the adhesion of the coatings by the pull-off test on the roughened surface for both methods of sample storage, the character of breakage for the synthetic coating was of the cohesive type, thus it was the tensile strength of the materials, while for the epoxy coating, it was the adhesive breakage, thus it was the adhesion between the surface and the coating.

Supporting material: Prospective life-cycle assessment of sustainable alternatives for road freight transport

This study investigates decarbonization pathways for the road freight transport sector by evaluating three alternatives to conventional diesel trucks: trucks powered by biofuels, battery electric trucks, and fuel cell trucks with hydrogen. A prospective life cycle assessment of these options is conducted under two policy scenarios for decarbonization across 12 distinct regions over the century. Employing a cradle-to-grave approach, the assessment covers activities from fuel and electricity production to the end-of-life of truck components. Findings reveal that, in eight of the 12 regions examined, an early transition to battery electric trucks could increase life-cycle greenhouse gas emissions by up to 70% by 2030 compared to the continued use of conventional diesel trucks, underscoring the significance of liquid fuels for short to medium-term decarbonization. However, in the long term, as electricity mixes and hydrogen production are decarbonized, battery electric trucks and hydrogen fuel cell trucks emerge as superior alternatives in all regions, emitting, at least, 29% less greenhouse gases than trucks powered by biofuels, and 45% less than diesel trucks. The optimal transition from conventional diesel trucks to trucks powered by biofuels and, subsequently, to battery electric trucks and/or hydrogen could avoid 134-204 Gt CO2-eq worldwide and prevent a temperature rise of 0.22-0.33°C compared to the diesel-based scenario. This emphasizes the crucial role of appropriate policies for the timely transformation of the road freight transport sector.

Displacement time series from Foamquake and Gelquake in single- and double asperity configurations: Supplementary material to "Scaled seismotectonic models of megathrust seismic cycles through the lens of dynamical system theory"

This dataset includes displacement data from 4 experiments performed with Foamquake and Gelquake (Mastella et al. 2022, Corbi et al., 2013), two scaled seismotectonic models reproducing the megathrust seismic cycle running at the Laboratory of Experimental Tectonics LET (Univ. Roma Tre). These models enable the generation of hundreds of quasi-periodic cycles of stress accumulation and sudden release through the spontaneous nucleation of frictional instabilities within one or many analog seismic asperities. Models are monitored by the means of a high-resolution top-view monitoring camera acquiring images at 7.5 and 50 frames per second for Gelquake and Foamquake, respectively. This dataset has been created with particle image velocimetry (PIV, using MatPIV (Sveen 2004)) through the cross-correlation between consecutive images. The PIV provides us with velocity field time series. These are integrated to obtain displacement time series. From the whole model surface, in each experiment we selected data from a cross-section striking parallel to the trench and located at the downdip center of the asperities. Cross sections are discretized in 28 and 29 target points in Gelquake and Foamquake, respectively.  Displacement time series have been normalized to zero mean and unit variance to ensure the same level of magnitude for comparison between different experiments. Linear and second order polynomial trends have been removed to make the stick-slip confined in a given range and avoid non-stationary behavior. Time series data are not passed through filters (e.g., smoothing or moving average). Filename informs about the nature of the analog upper plate (i.e., foam and gel) and geometrical configuration of asperities (i.e., mono and twin). Together with individual files for each experiment, this dataset includes a Matlab script (i.e., all_timeseries.m) that allows visualization of displacement time series from individual target points.  This dataset is supplementary to the paper in SEISMICA "Scaled seismotectonic models of megathrust seismic cycles through the lens of dynamical system theory” by Corbi et al. (2024), where detailed descriptions of models and experimental results can be found.

Supplementary materials for: Use and detection of a vitamin B1 degradation product yields new views of the marine B1 cycle and plankton metabolite exchange

Vitamin B1 (thiamin) is a vital nutrient for most cells in nature including marine plankton. Early and recent experiments show that B1 degradation products instead of B1 can support the growth of marine bacterioplankton and phytoplankton. However, the use and occurrence of some degradation products remain uninvestigated – namely N-formyl-4-amino-5-aminomethyl-2-methylpyrimidine (FAMP) – which has been a focus of plant oxidative stress research. We investigated the relevance of FAMP in the ocean. Experiments and global ocean meta-omic data indicate that eukaryotic phytoplankton, including picoeukaryotes and harmful algal bloom species, use FAMP while bacterioplankton appear more likely to use deformylated FAMP, 4-amino-5-aminomethyl-2-methylpyrimidine (AmMP). Measurements of FAMP in seawater and biomass revealed that it occurs at picomolar concentrations in the surface ocean, heterotrophic bacterial cultures produce FAMP in the dark – indicating non-photodegradation of B1 by cells, and B1-requiring (auxotrophic) picoeukaryotic phytoplankton produce intracellular FAMP. Our results require an expansion of thinking about vitamin degradation in the sea, but also the marine B1 cycle – where it is now crucial to consider a new B1-related compound pool (FAMP) – as well as generation (dark degradation – likely via oxidation), turnover (plankton uptake), and exchange of the compound within networks of plankton.

Social life cycle sustainability assessment of dried tomato products based on material and process selection through multi-criteria decision making

<h3>BACKGROUND</h3> Tomatoes are a significant product of the Mediterranean region and a crucial component of the Mediterranean diet. The formulation of dried tomato products enriched with proteins and bioactive compounds could be a strategic approach to promote adherence to the Mediterranean diet. Six different novel tomato products were analyzed using different protein enrichment sources (pea proteins and leaf proteins) and drying technologies (hot-air dryer, microwave vacuum dryer, and conventional dryer). The novelty of this approach lies in combining product-specific criteria with global societal factors across their life cycles. Using 21 criteria and an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) survey of experts, the social sustainability score for each product was determined through a multi-criteria assessment. <h3>RESULTS</h3> The tomato product's life cycles have minimal regional impacts on unemployment, access to drinking water, sanitation, or excessive working hours. However, they affect discrimination, migrant labor, children's education, and access to hospital beds significantly. The study identified nutritional quality as the top criterion, with the most sustainable design being a tomato bar enriched with pea protein and processed using microwave vacuum drying. <h3>CONCLUSION</h3> The study revealed that integrating sensory and nutrient compounds into social sustainability assessments improves food sustainability and provides a practical roadmap for social life cycle assessments of food products. It emphasized the importance of considering global social issues when reformulating Mediterranean products to ensure long-term adherence to the Mediterranean diet. Incorporating social factors into sustainability scores can also enhance the effectiveness of product information for conscious customers. © 2024 The Author(s). Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd on behalf of Society of Chemical Industry.
