Acord 1-26 hot, dry well, Roosevelt Hot Springs hot dry rock prospect, Utah

Description: The Acord 1-26 well is a hot, dry well peripheral to the Roosevelt Hot Springs known geothermal resource area (KGRA) in southwestern Utah. The bottom-hole temperature in this 3854-m-deep well is 230/sup 0/C, and the thermal gradient is 54/sup 0/C/km. The basal 685 m, comprised of biotite monzonite and quartz schist and gneiss, is a likely hot, dry rock (HDR) prospect. The hole was drilled in a structural low within the Milford Valley graben and is separated from the Roosevelt KGRA to the east b… more

Active metasomatism in the Cerro Prieto geothermal system, Baja California, Mexico: a telescoped low pressure/temperature metamorphic facies series

Description: In the Cerro Prieto geothermal field, carbonate-cemented, quartzofeldspathic sediments of the Colorado River delta are being actively metasomatized into calc-silicate metamorphic rocks by reaction with alkali chloride brines between 200/sup 0/ and 370/sup 0/C, low fluid and lithostatic pressures, and low oxygen fugacities. Petrologic investigations of drill cores and cutting from over 50 wells in this field identified a prograde series of calc-silicate mineral zones which include as index miner… more

Alkali depletion and ion-beam mixing in glasses

Description: Ion-implantation-induced alkali depletion in simple alkali-silicate glasses (12M/sub 2/O.88SiO/sub 2/) has been studied for implantations at room temperature and near 77K. Results are consistent with a mechanism for alkali removal, by heavy ion bombardment, based on radiation-enhanced migration and preferential removal of alkali from the outermost layers. Similar results were obtained for mixed-alkali glasses ((12-x)Cs/sub 2/.O.xM/sub 2/O.88SiO/sub 2/) where, in addition, a mixed-alkali effect … more

Alumina/silica multilayer coatings for excimer lasers

Description: The coating parameter that most strongly influences optical damage resistance is the choice of materials used to produce a component. During the course of testing of hundreds of ultraviolet reflectors involving 12 different material combinations, multilayer stacks of Al/sub 2/O/sub 3//SiO/sub 2/ have demonstrated a superior ability to resist laser-induced damage. Further, damage thresholds for these coatings are at least twice as high as for reflectors composed of other materials. In particular… more

Application of NDE methods to green ceramics: initial results

Description: The effectiveness of microradiography, ultrasonic methods, unclear magnetic resonance, and neutron radiography was assessed for the nondestructive evaluation of green (unfired) ceramics. The application of microradiography to ceramics is reviewed, and preliminary experiments with a commercial microradiography unit are described. Conventional ultrasonic techniques are difficult to apply to flaw detection green ceramics because of the high attenuation, fragility, and couplant-absorbing properties… more

CaO interaction in the staged combustion of coal

Description: The LIMB (limestone injection multi-stage burner) process offers special potential for reducing NO/sub x/ and SO/sub x/ by at least 50 percent in coal combustion. This is to be accomplished by adding limestone with fuel and/or air in a low NO/sub x/ burner. This program has been directed to defining the chemistry and kinetics necessary to optimize sulfur capture in LIMB combustion. More specifically, this program has attempted to clarify the role of calcium sulfide in LIMB chemistry. When limes… more

Catalytic gasification studies in a pressurized fluid-bed unit

Description: The purpose of the project is to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of producing specific gas products via the catalytic gasification of biomass. This report presents the results of research conducted from October 1980 to November 1982. In the laboratory scale studis, active catalysts were developed for generation of synthesis gases from wood by steam gasification. A trimetallic catalyst, Ni-Co-Mo on silica-alumina doped with 2 wt % Na, was found to retain activity indefinitely for… more

CO/sub 2/-silica geothermometer for low temperature geothermal resource assessment, with application to resources in the Safford Basin, Arizona

Description: This study investigates silica-water reactions in low-temperature geothermal water in areas near Safford, southeastern Arizona, and derives a pCO2 correction for conductive silica geothermometers. Use and limitations of the technique are also discussed. Data collection, interpretation approach, and basic geochemistry, as it applies to this study, are outlined. In addition, the geology, thermal regime, geohydrology, and gross geochemistry of the Safford area are reviewed. Finally, geothermal pot… more

Comparison of the characteristics of graphites irradiated at 600 and 900/sup 0/C

Description: Graphite for the reflector in the pebble-bed High-Temperature Reactor in the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) requires exceptional irradiation resistance for economic viability. The candidate graphites are being irradiated in the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) at Oak Ridge to assess their irradiation life expectancy. This assessment is based upon dimensional stability, elastic constants from sonic testing, electrical resistivity from eddy-current testing, coefficient of thermal expansion, an… more
