“…The polymerization methods, ZN and metallocene, produce iPP with slight variation. ZN-catalyzed iPP do not have uniformly distributed irregularities, rather they have highly isotactic blocks, defect-rich segments, and syndiotactic segments . Isotactic ZN PP can be considered a mixture of different chains, and most commercial ZN iPP contain short atactic chains .…”

“…Isotactic ZN PP can be considered a mixture of different chains, and most commercial ZN iPP contain short atactic chains . Metallocene-catalyzed PP stereo defects are dependent on the catalyst symmetry, and their distribution is homogeneous . Metallocene-catalyzed iPP has a narrower molecular weight distribution than ZN-catalyzed systems.…”

The current severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) pandemic has highlighted the need for personal protective equipment, specifically filtering facepiece respirators like N95 masks. While it is common knowledge that polypropylene (PP) is the industry standard material for filtration media, trial and error is often required to identify suitable commercial precursors for filtration media production. This work aims to identify differences between several commercial grades of PP and demonstrate the development of N95 filtration media with the intent that the industry partners can pivot and help address N95 shortages. Three commercial grades of high melt flow index PP were melt blown at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and broadly characterized by several methods including differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and neutron scattering. Despite the apparent similarities (high melt flow and isotacticity) between PP feedstocks, the application of corona charging and charge enhancing additives improve each material to widely varying degrees. From the analysis performed here, the most differentiating factor appears to be related to crystallization of the polymer and the resulting electret formation. Materials with higher crystallization onset temperatures, slower crystallization rates, and larger number of crystallites form a stronger electret and are more effective at filtration.

“…Additionally, prosumers can contribute in subsidizing distributed flexibility in the energy market by managing their electricity consumption and production schedules to achieve a decentralized storage system. This aids in improving prosumer roles towards contributing to the transformation from conventional to flexible energy systems in achieving sustainability energy sharing process (van der Burgt et al, 2015). Thus, prosumers create value to the developing energy system, as they play vital role in the energy value chain by contributing towards innovation, value creation and energy market flexibility (Nikolaidis et al, 2019).…”

Smart city has emerged as a universal term for the pervasive utilization of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) deployed to provide value-added services to citizens based on data generated from sectors such as energy, mobility, etc. However, current approaches are faced with interoperability as a challenging issue in processing big-data. Therefore, this study explores the role of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for managing real-time, online, and historical energy data in the context of residential buildings and Electric Vehicles (EVs). Moreover, a layered architecture that employs APIs in big data is developed for district energy management towards providing energy information intelligence and support decision making on energy sustainability in facilitating prosumption operations. Practically, the layered architecture collects energy data and provides data to prosumers who are citizens that produce, consume, share, and sell energy generated from renewable sources such as solar and wind to better improve energy prosumption in smart grid.

With view to the high share of the transport sector in total energy consumption, e-mobility should play an important role within the transition of the energy systems. Policymakers in several countries consider electric vehicles (EV) as an alternative to fossil-fueled vehicles. In order to allow for the development of EV, the charging infrastructure has to be set up at locations with high charging potential, identified by means of various criteria such as demand density or trip length. Many methodologies for locating charging stations (CS) have been developed in the last few years. First, this paper presents a broad overview of publications in the domain of CS localization. A classification scheme is proposed regarding modeling theory and empirical application; further on, models are analyzed, distinguishing between users, route or destination centricity of the approaches and outcomes. In a second step, studies in the field of explicit spatial location planning are reviewed in more detail, that is, in terms of their target criteria and the specialization of underlying analytical processes. One divergence of these approaches lies in the varying level of spatial planning, which could be crucial depending on the planning requirements. It is striking that almost all CS locating concepts are proposed for urban areas. Other constraints, such as the lack of extensive empirical EV traffic data for a better understanding of the driving behavior, are identified. This paper provides an overview of the CS models, a classification approach especially considering the problem's spatial dimension, and derives perspectives for further research. ARTICLE HISTORY
