Abstract:

The APASUPER project deals with preparation, characterization and testing supported metal oxides to be used as sorbent materials in separation processes carried out under supercritical water (scH2O) conditions. The one-step preparation method (continuous scH2O impregnation of metal oxides on carbon) is here presented as novelty. It will be developed by combining the available knowledge with the very recent information on the coexistence of gas- and liquid-like phases, observable when scH2O interacts with porous carbon (Maxim et al. Nat. Comms. 2019). The project has both an exploratory and an inter-disciplinary character and aims to be the first step towards long-term collaboration between the Institute of Physical Chemistry, Romania (host) and Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland (main partner). During the research stages at the Swiss partner, cutting-edge research will be performed at PSI’s large-scale facilities using neutron/synchrotron radiation. In this way, the project will contribute to spread the excellence within Europe by bringing the scH2O science to the attention of the Romanian research community. The materials prepared, characterized and tested during this project might contribute to the implementation at large-scale of the promising scH2O technologies, which can in turn help to achieve the 6th (clean water and sanitation) and the 7th (affordable and clean energy) Sustainable Development Goals on UN’s new 2030 agenda.
