Operando Observation of (Bi)carbonate Precipitation during Electrochemical CO2 Reduction in Strongly Acidic Electrolytes

Corsin Battaglia, Nukorn Plainpan, Alessandro Senocrate

Precipitation of (bi)carbonate salts during the electrochemical CO2 reduction (CO2RR) has been identified as a major cause of degradation and one of the main challenges to be overcome before implementing this technology on the industrial scale. Recently, t ...

First paleoproteome study of fossil fish otoliths and the pristine preservation of the biomineral crystal host

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Jinming Guo

Otoliths are calcium carbonate components of the stato-acoustical organ responsible for hearing and maintenance of the body balance in teleost fish. During their formation, control over, e.g., morphology and carbonate polymorph is influenced by complex ins ...

Fine-scale dynamics of calcite precipitation in a large hardwater lake

Pascal Perolo

In hardwater lakes, calcite precipitation is an important yet poorly understood process in the lacustrine carbon cycle, in which catchment-derived alkalinity (Alk) is both transformed and translocated. While the physico-chemical conditions supporting the s ...

Hydration and durability of fast hardening binders incorporating supplementary cementitious materials

Sarra El Housseini

The use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) is widely considered the most promis-ing approach to reduce CO2 emissions relative to cement production. SCMs are not commonly present in binders used for special applications. On the other hand, due t ...

Method and system for producing a carbonate-containing species-rich, nitrogen-containing species-free solution

Lyesse Laloui, Dimitrios Terzis

A method for producing a carbonate-containing species-rich, nitrogen-containing species-free solution from a urea-rich solution is proposed. The method comprising the steps of: providing a first reservoir comprising a first mixture including urea and a cat ...

Experimental assessment of the hydro-mechanical behaviour of a shale caprock during CO2 injection

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Eleni Stavropoulou, Alberto Minardi, Taeheon Kim

The presented experimental study focuses on the hydro-mechanical characterisation of a shale caprock (Opalinus Clay) in contact with carbon dioxide. The objective of this paper, consists in the evaluation of the material's sealing capacity in terms of entr ...

Frictional behaviour of carbonate bearing faults at brittle-ductile transition

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Mathias Alexandre David Lebihain, Carolina Giorgetti, Francesco Figura

One of the most alarming recent findings in geo-science is the dramatic rise in the rate of humaninduced earthquakes in the past decade. This is due to the fluid injection or extraction in deep reservoirs for hydrocarbon production, wastewater and CO2 stor ...

Evolution of the rate-and-state frictional parameters of carbonate bearing faults at the brittle-ductile transition

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Mathias Alexandre David Lebihain, Carolina Giorgetti, Francesco Figura

The majority of the seismic events in the Mediterranean region are hosted in carbonate-bearing rocks at depths representative of the semi-brittle regime. Within this regime, a complex interplay between brittle (localized) and ductile (distributed) deformat ...

Integrating environmental variability to broaden the research on coral responses to future ocean conditions

Cristina Martin Olmos, Nils Rädecker

Our understanding of the response of reef-building corals to changes in their physical environment is largely based on laboratory experiments, analysis of long-term field data, and model projections. Experimental data provide unique insights into how organ ...

A modern scleractinian coral with a two-component calcite–aragonite skeleton

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

One of the most conserved traits in the evolution of biomineralizing organisms is the taxon-specific selection of skeletal minerals. All modern scleractinian corals are thought to produce skeletons exclusively of the calcium-carbonate polymorph aragonite. ...
