Abstract: Methods for forming a function-infused feed material for a three-dimensional printing technique, methods for manufacturing an additive-infused three-dimensional printed object, and vehicles including additive manufactured components are provided. An exemplary method for forming a function-infused feed material for a three-dimensional printing technique includes solubilizing a functional additive into a medium. Further, the method includes contacting a three-dimensional printing feed material with the medium to infuse the functional additive into the three-dimensional printing feed material to form the function-infused feed material.

Abstract: Stable, aqueous solutions of chlorine dioxide and methods for producing stable, aqueous solutions of chlorine dioxide are disclosed. Generally, the chlorine dioxide solutions of the invention are aqueous solutions containing about 1000 ppm by weight or less of total impurities and/or 10 ppm or less of manganese and iron combined. The aqueous chlorine dioxide solutions are storage stable for at least 90 days at 25° C. and maintain at least 75% of the initial chlorine dioxide concentration. Methods of preparing, using and transporting the chlorine dioxide solutions are also disclosed.

Abstract: Measuring the real corrosion risk that organosulfur compounds present in refinery operations is simplified by first measuring the total sulfur content of a sample of a hydrocarbon material. The sample is then combined with a specific quantity of high surface area iron powder at a temperature representative of the highest temperature anticipated in a refining process for a period of time, such as one hour. The solid phase is then removed, and the total sulfur content is again measured. The difference between the before and after represents the total reactive sulfur of the hydrocarbon material. The hydrocarbon material is then blended with other hydrocarbon materials to create a stream that can be optimized to utilize the maximum volume of the lowest cost feedstock while managing the corrosion risk to the refinery equipment and piping.

Abstract: Cellulose and hemicellulose from biomass can be broken down to C6 and C5 sugars and further converted to corresponding sugar alcohols. It is now found that a new catalyst, MoS2, is active for the hydrogenation of sugar alcohols to hydrocarbons. Combining the technologies listed above allows us to convert the cellulose/hemicellulose to liquid hydrocarbons.

Abstract: New methods are disclosed for decontaminating surfaces and enclosures that avoid problems such as salt deposits, corrosion and condensation that accompany the use of known methods. The methods involve the use of chlorine dioxide solutions prepared by passing dilute chlorine gas over solid granular sodium chlorite to produce chlorine dioxide gas which is then collected to form a solution with very low levels of impurities. The chlorine dioxide gas can be introduced into an enclosure and used to disinfect a portion of the contents of the enclosure.
