Researchers from Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) in Korea and Karlsruher Institute of Technology in Germany have developed a novel energy conversion and storage system using seawater as a cathode. Similarly, sodium has recently attracted attention as a replacement for lithium in alkali-metal-air batteries.

Flowchart of Molten Sodium Upgrading process. A new company, Field Upgrading (Calgary, Alberta), has been formed dedicated to developing and commercializing the Molten Sodium Upgrading (MSU) technology. When electricity is applied to the ceramic membrane, elemental sodium is extracted through the membrane and recycled to the process.

The thermochemical production of hydrogen and oxygen from water via a series of chemical reactions is of interest because it directly converts thermal energy into stored chemical energy (hydrogen and oxygen), and thus can take advantage of excess heat given off by other processes. —Xu et al.

On a planet aspiring to become carbon neutral, the once-stalwart coal power plant is an emerging anachronism. Such a conversion has never been done, but the report is another sign that the idea is gaining momentum—if with the slow steps of a baby needing decades to learn to walk. “A coal plants are planned to shutter by 2035.
