Steel bars used in pre-stressed concrete structures are constantly subjected to tensile stress, and some steel bars have been reported to fracture due to hydrogen embrittlement. It is important to know the hydrogen embrittlement behavior in steel bars to prevent fracture.

Cathodic charging in a solution containing ammonium thiocyanate (NH4SCN) is commonly used to absorb hydrogen into a specimen in accelerated hydrogen embrittlement tests. However, the temperature dependence of hydrogen content in a specimen absorbed by cathodic charging in a solution containing NH4SCN has not been clarified. In this study, we evaluated the temperature dependence of saturated hydrogen content Cs by thermal desorption analysis, and it was found that Cs decreased as the temperature increased at a cathodic current density ic of 5 and 10 A/m2 and increased as the temperature increased at a ic of 100 A/m2. We also analyzed the hydrogen evolution reaction by fitting cathodic polarization curves, and it was found that the equilibrium constant of the hydrogen absorption-adsorption reaction K was almost constant regardless of temperature, while the changes in surface hydrogen coverage θ were in good agreement with the changes in Cs. Therefore, the changes in Cs can be explained as mainly due to the changes in θ.

The production of heavy oil or bitumen depends upon continuous steam injection to fluidize the oil in the formation. Most of the boilers used in steam generation to enhance oil production are gas-powered once-through-steam-generation (OTSG), because OTSG’s can tolerate hard water and are relatively easy to maintain. Since an approximate 80% of feedwater is vaporized in a single pass, silica/silicate scales could form in the OTSG boiler if the silica content in the feedwater is not well controlled.

The effect of CO2 concentration in the atmosphere on temperature has been known for a long time. Although an increase in CO2 concentration has been observed since the 1960s, a clear change in trend of global temperature increase can be observed from around the 1990s. CCS (Carbon Capture and Storage) is a mature technology available to reduce emissions from large scale fossil-based energy and industry sources. Sufficient geological storage is available for these sources. Mitigation of CO2 emissions via CCS has been identified as crucial to limit global warming.3 In recent years a significant increase in CCS projects have been proposed and initiated.

In 1984 the US EPA issued a Request for Proposals to select a provider to privatize the approval of products and components used in water distribution systems across the United States.  A team which was led by NSF International and included the American Water Works Association Research Foundation, the Association of State Drinking Water Administrators, the Conference of State Health and Environmental Managers, and the American Water Works Association was awarded the contract to develop the standard. In 1988, NSF/ANSI 61: Drinking Water System Components ― Health Effects was published as a result of the work of this team.  This standard established minimum requirements for the control of potential adverse human health effects from products that contact drinking water and has been updated regularly since then to add testing criteria for additional contaminants and product types.
