New in EURAMET.QM-K3.2019 was the addition of the amount fraction oxygen to the programme. The key comparison reference values were obtained independently, using static gravimetry and appropriate corrections from purity analysis and are linked to those of CCQM-K3.2019. The key comparison results show equivalence between the measurement standards maintained by the participating national metrology institutes. The demonstrated equivalence can be used to underpin services related to automotive exhaust gases as well as generically through the flexible scheme ("track A").

T1 - Thermodynamic characterization of the (H2 + C3H8) system significant for the hydrogen economy: Experimental (p, rho, T) determination and equation-of-state modelling N2 - For the gradual introduction of hydrogen in the energy market, the study of the properties of mixtures of hydrogen with typical components of natural gas (NG) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is of great importance. This work aims to provide accurate experimental (p, rho, T) data for three hydrogen-propane mixtures with nominal compositions (amount of substance, mol/mol) of (0.95 H2 + 0.05 C3H8), (0.90 H2 + 0.10 C3H8), and (0.83 H2 + 0.17 C3H8), at temperatures of 250, 275, 300, 325, 350, and 375 K, and pressures up to 20 MPa. A single-sinker densimeter was used to determine the density of the mixtures. Experimental density data were compared to the densities calculated from two reference equations of state: the GERG-2008 and the AGA8-DC92. Relative deviations from the GERG-2008 EoS are systematically larger than those from the AGA8-DC92. They are within the ±0.5% band for the mixture with 5% of propane, but deviations are higher than 0.5% for the mixtures with 10% and 17% of propane, especially at low temperatures and high pressures. Finally, the sets of new experimental data have been processed by the application of two different statistical equations of state: the virial equation of state, through the second and third virial coefficients, B(T, x) and C(T, x), and the PC-SAFT equation of state.

T1 - Impact of hydrogen addition, up to 20 % (mol/mol), on the thermodynamic (p, ρ, T) properties of a reference high-calorific natural gas mixture with significant ethane and propane content N2 - Injecting hydrogen into the natural gas grid supports gradual decarbonization. To check the accuracy of equations of state for hydrogen-enriched natural gas mixtures, precise density data from well-characterized reference mixtures are essential. In a prior study, we provided experimental measurements for a natural gas constituted mainly of methane and for two derived hydrogen-enriched mixtures. In the present study, being the second and final part of our investigation, density measurements for a high-calorific natural gas with significant ethane and propane content, along with two hydrogen-enriched variants (10 and 20 mol-% hydrogen) are provided. The mixtures are gravimetrically prepared following ISO 6142-1. Density measurements, conducted with a single-sinker densimeter at temperatures from (260–350) K and pressures up to 20 MPa, are compared with three equations of state: AGA8-DC92, GERG-2008, and an improved GERG-2008. Results indicate that all models perform better for methane-dominant mixtures than for those containing heavier hydrocarbons.

T1 - Thermodynamic (p, ρ, T) characterization of a reference high-calorific natural gas mixture when hydrogen is added up to 20 % (mol/mol) N2 - The injection of hydrogen into the natural-gas grid is an alternative during the process of a gradual decarbonization of the heat and power supply. When dealing with hydrogen-enriched natural gas mixtures, the performance of the reference equations of state habitually used for natural gas should be validated by using high-precision experimental thermophysical data from multicomponent reference mixtures prepared with the lowest possible uncertainty in composition. In this work, we present experimental density data for an 11-compound high-calorific (hydrogen-free) natural gas mixture and for two derived hydrogen-enriched natural gas mixtures prepared by adding (10 and 20) mol-% of hydrogen to the original standard natural gas mixture. The three mixtures were prepared gravimetrically according to ISO 6142–1 for maximum precision in their composition and thus qualify for reference materials. A single-sinker densimeter was used to determine the density of the mixtures from (250–350) K and up to 20 MPa. The experimental density results of this work have been compared to the densities calculated by three different reference equations of state for natural gas related mixtures: the AGA8-DC92 EoS, the GERG-2008 EoS, and an improved version of the GERG-2008 EoS. While relative deviations of the experimental density data for the hydrogen-free natural gas mixture are always within the claimed uncertainty of the three considered equations of state, larger deviations can be observed for the hydrogen-enriched natural gas mixtures from any of the three equations of state, especially for the lowest temperature and the highest pressures.

This study compares the performance of Raman and benchtop NMR process spectroscopy for determining the hydrogen amount fraction in gas mixtures. A setup was designed to integrate both techniques, enabling measurements of the same sample. Tests were conducted with gravimetrically prepared gas mixtures of reference quality ranging from 1.20 cmol/mol to 85.83 cmol/mol of hydrogen. The results demonstrate that Raman spectroscopy provides superior performance, with a minimal root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.22 cmol/mol and excellent linearity. In contrast, benchtop NMR spectroscopy faced challenges, such as overlapping peaks and longer measurement times, resulting in a higher RMSE of 0.71 cmol/mol. Raman spectroscopy proves to be particularly well-suited for practical applications due to its high accuracy and linearity. Meanwhile, benchtop NMR spectroscopy holds potential for future enhancements through ongoing technological advances, such as higher magnetic field strengths. In summary, the results from our study indicate that Raman spectroscopy is already a serviceable method for precise hydrogen quantification, whereas benchtop NMR spectroscopy can be attributed potential for future applications.

T1 - Speed of sound data and acoustic virial coefficients of two binary (N2 + H2) mixtures at temperatures between (260 and 350) K and at pressures between (0.5 and 20) MPa N2 - This work aims to address the technical concerns related to the thermodynamic characterization of gas mixtures blended with hydrogen for the implementation of hydrogen as a new energy vector. For this purpose, new experimental speed of sound measurements have been done in gaseous and supercritical phases of two binary mixtures of nitrogen and hydrogen using the most accurate technique available, i.e., the spherical acoustic resonator, yielding an experimental expanded (k = 2) uncertainty of only 220 parts in 106 (0.022%). The measurements cover the pressure range between (0.5 and 20) MPa, the temperature range between (260 and 350) K, and the composition range with a nominal mole percentage of hydrogen of (5 and 10) mol%, respectively. From the speed of sound data sets, thermophysical properties that are relevant for the characterization of the mixture, namely the second βa and third γa acoustic virial coefficients, are derived. These results are thoroughly compared and discussed with the established reference mixture models valid for mixtures of nitrogen and hydrogen, such as the AGA8-DC92 EoS, the GERG-2008 EoS, and the recently developed adaptation of the GERG-2008 EoS, here denoted GERG-H2_improved EoS. Special attention has been given to the effect of hydrogen concentration on those properties, showing that only the GERG-H2_improved EoS is consistent with the data sets within the experimental uncertainty in most measuring conditions.

T1 - Thermodynamic characterization of the (CO2+ O2) binary system for the development of models for CCS processes: Accurate experimental (p, rho, T) data and virial coefficients N2 - Continuing our study on (CO2 + O2) mixtures, this work reports new experimental (p, rho, T) data for two oxygen-rich mixtures with mole fractions x(O2) = (0.50 and 0.75) mol·mol−1, in the temperature range T = (250–375) K and pressure range p = (0.5–20) MPa, using a single-sinker densimeter. Experimental density data were compared to two well-established equation-of-state models: EOS-CG and GERG-2008. In the p, T-range investigated, the EOS-CG gave a better reproduction for the equimolar mixture (x(O2) = 0.5), whereas the GERG-2008 performed significantly better for the oxygen-rich mixture (x(O2) = 0.75). The EOS-CG generally overestimates the density, while the GERG-2008 underestimates it. This complete set of new experimental data, together with previous measurements, is used to calculate the virial coefficients B(T, x) and C(T, x), as well as the second interaction virial coefficient B12(T) for the (CO2+ O2) system.

T1 - Eco-friendly synthesis of recyclable mesoporous zinc ferrite@reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite for efficient photocatalytic dye degradation under solar radiation N2 - Zinc ferrite and graphene composites have attracted considerable attention in wastewater treatment. In this work, a magnetically separable mesoporous composite of ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles (NPs) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was prepared through a simple and eco-friendly method with pure water as solvent and without the need for subsequent thermal treatment. Uniformly dispersed ZnFe2O4 NPs on the surface of rGO sheets exhibited good crystallinity and a large BET specific surface area. These factors contributed to good photocatalytic performance of the composite for the degradation of methylene blue (MB) under simulated solar-light radiation, increased adsorptivity, increased separation efficiency of the photo-excited charges on the surface of the catalyst, and broadened light-absorption range of the composite. Efficient interfacial interaction between the ZnFe2O4 NPs and rGO sheets resulted in synergistic effects. The magnetically separable ZnFe2O4@rGO nanocomposite proved an efficient and stable catalyst in three consecutive photodegradation cycles for MB dye in aqueous solution under solar radiation. In addition, the synthesis method proposed in this study could be scaled-up easily due to the simplicity of the process, the lack of a toxic reagent, and the use of low temperatures.

T1 - Important Developments in the History of Ionic Liquids from Academic Curiosity to Commercial Processes and Products N2 - Twenty years ago, research involving ionic liquids was a minor field of interest, and only a few chemists and even fewer engineers were interested in salts with melting points near room temperature. In April 2000, the first NATO advanced research workshop on ionic liquids was held in Heraklion, Crete. The conference was the first international meeting devoted to ionic liquids and attracted most of the active researchers at that time. Following that meeting, activity in the field began to flourish and the first books and international conferences devoted to ionic liquids began to appear. By the end of 2018, more than 80,000 scientific papers had been published, and 17,000 patents were applied for in the field of ionic liquids! This book provides an overview of the current and emerging industrial applications of ionic liquids covering the core processes and products, the practical implementation and technical challenges involved, and the potential future directions for Research and development. The individual chapters were written by leading scientists in the field from industry and academia to address specific processes and products that are or will be soon commercialized. Examples include the use of a chloroaluminate ionic liquid as a next-generation alkylation catalyst to a new class of capillary gas chromatography (GC) columns with stationary phases based on ionic liquids. Over the past twenty years, there has been a growing realization that ionic liquids have moved from being mere academic curiosities to having genuine applications in fields as wide-ranging as advanced materials, biotechnology, catalysis, pharmaceuticals, renewable fuels, and sustainable energy. There are many optimistic indications that ionic liquids are on their way to becoming a commercial success story. This first book on “Commercial Applications of Ionic Liquids” provides over 50 applications that are either at the pilot scale or have been commercialized, which indicates that an exciting new chapter in the field of ionic liquids is about to begin!

T1 - Self-templated hollow nanospheres of B-site engineered non-stoichiometric perovskite for supercapacitive energy storage via anion-intercalation mechanism N2 - The continual increase in energy demand and inconsistent supply have attracted attention towards sustainable energy storage/conversion devices, such as electrochemical capacitors with high energy densities and power densities. Perovskite oxides have received significant attention as anion-intercalation electrode materials for electrochemical capacitors. In this study, hollow nanospheres of nonstoichiometric cubic perovskite fluorides, KNi1-xCoxF3-delta (x = 0.2; delta = 0.33) (KNCF-0.2) have been synthesized using a localized Ostwald ripening. The electrochemical performance of the non-stoichiometric perovskite has been studied in an aqueous 3 M KOH electrolyte to categorically investigate the fluorine-vacancy-mediated charge storage capabilities. High capacities up to 198.55 mA h g-1 or 714.8 C g-1 (equivalent to 1435 F g-1) have been obtained through oxygen anion-intercalation mechanism (peroxide pathway, O-). The results have been validated using ICP (inductively coupled Plasma mass spectrometry) analysis and cyclic voltammetry. An asymmetric supercapacitor device has been fabricated by coupling KNCF-0.2 with activated carbon to deliver a high energy density of 40 W h kg-1 as well as excellent cycling stability of 98 % for 10,000 cycles. The special attributes of hollow-spherical, non-stoichiometric perovskite (KNCF-0.2) have exhibited immense promise for their usability as anion-intercalation type electrodes in supercapacitors.
