Eric's Data Buffer Page

Basics

• A Page where User:Eric dumps links pre "putting them in the right place"
• A more orderly, open, and non "500 deep bookmark" method
• Also acts as a public form of Bookmarks/tabs, so that even pre-being posted in a site, others can see the information and even iterate/be inspired by it, rather than have it "sit on a shelf"
• Should be promptly emptied

On the note of Hydrogen Filling Stations

• That IRCO Link you posted has a NICE P2X DIAGRAM! (Or Rather H2X i guess?) (It did fail to mention Grey Hydrogen (And all the other confusing "colors" of hydrogen like Turquoise Hydrogen ie Methane Pyrolysis to Hydrogen and Carbon Black etc) (Also didn't mention the odd (especially when done with novel nuclear reactors, gas cooled pebble bed, liquid salt stuff, etc) , but potentially useful Thermochemical Hydrogen Generation ) but seriously though i HAD to comment on that
• One of the papers, i think it was the Electroosmotic or whatever one, that had a nice diagram of the different tech (Piston Pump, Diaphragm Pump (I'll have to read up on it, but it wasn't a Pneumatic Dual Acting Diaphragm Pump , but instead almost like a hydraulic piston/engine type thing with the cylinder head being a membrane that made up the actual hydrogen pump part.
• Anywho i was trying to hunt down the cost of those stations, typical "Contact for Details" type deal sadly (The Alibaba link can probably be resurrected, i just don't have time for that now, spending far too much time doing things that are barely important but still in the way myself) (You can by all sorts of things, especially industrial equipment type stuff, on alibaba)
• I need to reread up all the specifications for those tanks too, some wild pressures, at least for non-cryogenic. I know the tanks at welding had some sort of plug that would vent (or at least the acetylene did, it would vent and make a column of flame but not explode, i think Autogas vehicles are similar (Also not russian tanks have those ammunition blow out panels for a similar reason lol). So some plug like that and maybe a Aramid Shrapnel Cage? (Might be more of a pop than a fragment shooting explosion though)
• Either way little bit of link spam forming on that, dumping that, and all those thoughts on it here
  • [https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?referer=&httpsredir=1&article=1011&context=econrealestatefacpub 2015 Paper by University of Nebraska at Omaha Titled "Low-cost, T Low-cost, Transportable Hy table Hydrogen Fueling Station for Early FCEV ueling Station for Early FCEV

Adoption" ] (Low Cost...but assumes LH2 Supply Trucks/Ecosystem being commonplace (granted i don't know they may be already decently around for medical/lab and rockets maybe?)

• • 2023 Venair - What's the average cost (BOP) of a Hydrogen Fuel Station?
    • Only skimmed it because again rushing, but quote "It is estimated that at present the construction of a Hydrogen Refuelling Station in California costs around 1.5-2 million USD."
      • Granted citation needed for that to check, then also that is probably for something more gas station sized
  • DOE Hydrogen Program Record - Record: 21002 Date: 11/2/2020 - Title: Hydrogen Fueling Stations Cost

M-Disc Technicality Mess

• Supposedly most modern Blu-Rays use a similar technology called "Metal Ablative Recording Layer" or MABL
• This Article Titled "On The Great M-Disc vs. “Regular” Blu-Ray Debate - My attempt to get to the heart of the surprisingly fierce online debate as to which form of optical media storage is the best for long term offline archival storage covers it well
• This 2015 Blog Post does some digging as well
• Either way can't go wrong, don't be too snobby, and can always check+make a new copy, lasting ultra-long is irrelevant with this in mind to an extent

CD Pressing Stuff

• This is even more near irrelevant (Short of maybe making DIY/OS CD-Rs / DVD-RAM / Minidiscs / M-Discs and all that?) but the typical mold making process for "disc pressing" uses Etched Glass to make a Sputtered Thin Metal bit...which is Electroplated or rather Electroforming (Which i think is just the technical term for thick electroplating) to make a metal mold which is THEN used in the Injection Mold machine followed by the other steps (PC Disc Sputtered with Reflective Layer, Coating above that to prevent oxidation, also potentially an anti scratch layer, also "primer" for the label and/or ink on the non-data side)
• This 1997 Paper Titled "Precision manufacture of optical disc master stampers" mentions going from the etched glass (or rather some other ceramic in this case?) directly to the injection mold press. So saves time and reduces waste from electroplating baths to deal with
  • Thus essentially all that is needed *in theory* are:
    • Equipment for Photolithography and/or Ion Etching / Plasma Etching
    • A Spin Coater
    • An Injection Molding machine of some sorts
  • Granted having the high level Cleanroom may be the real limiting factor
• Either way thought that was neat and wanted to document it on-wiki

Magnetron Sputtering Stuff

• Was skimming the "cited by" in that above paper and saw these, no time to read them, but dumping the links here and with those people who have made DIY/OS Magnetron Sputtering setups
  • 2008 Paper Titled "Wide erosion nickel magnetron sputtering using an eccentrically rotating center magnet"
  • 2008 Paper Titled "Improved wide erosion nickel magnetron sputtering using an eccentrically rotating tilted center magnet"

Formic Acid + DFAFC Related P2X Stuff

• Besides the ones in this section's title, Microfluidic Fuel Cell (Which relates to Micropower , albeit for these the case seems to be Lab-on-a-Chip type stuff) is another term of interest mentioned in some of these papers
• Also "FUMATECH BWT GmbH" brand membranes were in one of those papers
• Pile of link spam, dumping it here before i get too derailed
• This was in regards to the EForFuel research project i found out about, and after some digging discussed with Scihouse Inc's "Journal Club"
• Link Spam:
  • A 2021 Paper Titled "Electrochemical conversion of CO2 to formic acid using a Sn based electrode: A critical review on the state-of-the-art technologies and their potential"

  • A 2023 Paper Titled "Electrochemical CO2 conversion to formic acid using engineered enzymatic catalysts in a batch reactor"
    • Interesting coincidence, it shows one of the research partners was (or was from) Missouri State University, Springfield, MO, USA !
  • [https://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy22osti/80672.pdf A 2022 Paper Titled "High current density electroreduction of ­CO2 into formate with tin oxide nanospheres"

  • A 2015 Paper Titled "An improved alkaline direct formate paper microfluidic fuel cell"
  • A 2022 Paper Titled "A plant-like battery: a biodegradable power source ecodesigned for precision agriculture"
    • This uses some odd Organic Redox Flow Battery type chemistry if i understand correctly, This 2017 Paper Titled "Evaluation of Redox Chemistries for Single-Use Biodegradable Capillary Flow Batteries" goes into that a bit more
    • As per that second paper "Para-benzoquinone in Oxalic Acid and either Hydroquinone Sulfonic Acid or Ascorbic Acid in Potassium Hydroxide

are identified for the positive and negative half-cells, respectively, yielding a maximum discharge power density of 50 mW/cm2. A prototype capillary flow battery using the same redox chemistries demonstrates robust cell voltages above 1.0 V and maximum discharge power of 1.9 mW. These results show that practical primary battery performance can be achieved with biodegradable chemistries in a disposable device."

• • • Actually reading through that second paper right now, and not only is it great but it touches on Flow Batteries more broadly and references all sorts of other projects, going to add it to that page

  • An Energy News Network Article Titled "Midwest coalition pins hopes on federal funding for regional hydrogen hub - The Midwest Alliance for Clean Hydrogen says federal funding could launch a multi-faceted hydrogen boom in the Midwest."

Carbon Materials Related Stuff

• In discussing DFAFCs Chitosan was mentioned along with other Electrode Materials
• I mentioned Glassy Carbon aka Vitreous Carbon and was wondering how it was made
• Also Carbon Foam (Particularly my Carbon Foam Rigid Insulation idea) was mentioned and discussed
• As a potential way to avoid the issue of using food materials (ie wheat based bread) for non-food uses, (nano-) cellulose foams were mentioned:
• Some Papers on all that:
  • A 2012 Paper Titled "Cellulose nanowhisker foams by freeze casting"
  • A 2013 Paper Titled "Freeze-casting of cellulose nanowhisker foams prepared from a water-dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) binary mixture at low DMSO concentrations"
  • A 2023 Paper Titled "Unidirectional freeze casting of compressible metallic aerogel composed of freeze-dried cellulose nanofibers and silver nanowires" (Granted i doubt the widespread use of Metallic Aerogel especially by OSE, but heck it's open access!

  • Cellulose Nanofibrils/Xyloglucan Bio-Based Aerogels with Shape Recovery
  • A 2021 Paper Titled "Freeze-casting of highly porous cellulose-nanofiber-reinforced γ˗Al2O3 monoliths" (In the Journal "Open Ceramics" which seems to be an entire journal dedicated to Open Access Papers on ceramics!)
  • A 2015 Paper Titled "Analysis of a graphite foam–NaCl latent heat storage system for supercritical CO2 power cycles for concentrated solar power" (Salt, CO2, and Graphite Foam for 24/7 (-ish) solar thermal power!)

Smart Home and/or IOT Air Gapping Stuff

• "Parallel Network" seems to be a related concept
• Typical issue of Security vs Convenience
• Having the Separate Network, and be able to physically unplug (or some sort of Ethernet Cord Switch ) it into the WAN access may be a decent compromise
  • Although it being off/on depending on if you are there would be an indicator of sorts you probably wouldn't want to broadcast, at least in theory from a security snob point of view
• Link Spam:
  • https://cradlepoint.com/resources/blog/the-pros-and-cons-of-an-air-gapped-network-for-secure-iot-connectivity/
  • https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/cybersecurity-perspectives/the-air-gap-is-dead
  • OpenZiti (An Open Source Zero Trust Security Model Framework?) was mentioned in some forum posts
• Granted at the end of the day don't be dumb (leave default passwords active), be overly flashy (Gilded RGB Doorknobs) and stuff like that, and you are probably good. The whole "only need to be annoying to break into, not impenetrable" granted physical security and cybersecurity are all kinds of different due to automation/scale, and also i am not a cybersecurity expert. My point is essentially you don't have to be worrying about EMSEC Guidelines, but at the same time don't get your house burnt down due to a "Smart Outlet" being switched by a virus until it overheats.
• But yeah this has been something my brain has been thinking over, so i'd love to hear what you all think, especially any proper IT/Cybersecurity people!

"Smart Home" Stuff

• I said it in some other edit somewhere, and my "take" is essentially short of accessibility benefits, which for those that need/can benefit from it is AMAZING, it is mostly a bit of a gimmick / "not worth it" (Cost, Cyber-Security Vulnerable, POTENTIALLY energy use)
  • The Energy Use one has me intrigued. In theory Lighting and potentially HVAC+Hot Water energy use could be reduced (Occupancy Sensor based lighting, HVAC/Hot Water off or modified when people are away etc), although this could be done with "dumb" Programmable Thermostats and Occupancy Sensor Light Switches / Outlet Timers etc
• ALL THAT ASIDE in looking into the Raspberry Pi NAS and all that most smart home things are adjacent, or if it is sort of a Home Server can also be run on the same device
  • Short of special non-wifi or Bluetooth Low Energy etc
• So here is going to be some link spam on all that:
  • Zigbee
  • Z-Wave
  • An Article by "The Verge" Titled "This wireless power startup says it can charge your phone using only radio waves"
    • Granted short of if using it to allow a VERY sealed case (ie you can pressure wash your phone), wireless charging for phones is a somewhat bad idea, iFixit had a good video on this
    • However for small devices such as IOT Water Leak Sensors and other devices that only use small amounts of power over a long time, a Supercapacitor and Antenna may be an interesting alternative from an Appropriate Materials / Sustainability aspect due to not needing piles more Li-Ion Batteries
      • Sodium-Ion Batteries may complicate this a bit, also Zinc-Air Batteries ("Button Batteries" / "Coin Cells" ) can probably be pretty "green" and short of having to swap them (like a smoke detector almost but more devices in that routine maintenance cycle), especially if recycled. Interesting either way
  • This was also interesting in that they mounted the charger on a Robot Vacuum type thing (one that does both would be optimal...MODULAR TIMEEEEE) making it so multiple transmitters aren't needed
    • Here are some newer articles on things that may be using similar tech
      • An Article by "ARS Technica" Titled "Upcoming smart home products wirelessly charge without cable or pad"
      • An Article by "CNET" Titled "Long-distance wireless charging could power your smart home"
• Automatic Battery Swap System for Home Robots
• Power and Battery Management Solutions for Smart Homes
• Interesting (F)OSS:
  • Volumio (Essentially makes a Raspberry Pi into a Chromecast Audio, or some fancy schmancy device with a screen that can get to audio snob levels of quality for half the price or so (Not locked to any service(s) either)
  • Homebox / KitchenOwl (An Shelf/Inventory Software, and Pantry Inventory+Grocery List+Recipe Builder Software
    • This may just be an appeal to my ADHD brain and all that, but it seems VERY useful
    • Between slapping a RFID Tag on everything and using IOT Buttons (Akin to Amazon Dash but without the Surveillance Capitalism ) (That and/or use your smartphone or some sort of in-pantry scanner) being able to know where "that thing" is, or how many cans of olives, or if you have that sauce at home etc would be nice at least for me.

New Terminology (And Standards) Hell Discovered: Sandpaper

• I know sandpaper, so you got your different "grits" and whatnot
  • HOWEVER are how does one write about it is it "Sandpaper Grits" or "Grit Levels" also what does a grit define
  • So supposedly there is the ANSI system which i know which has to do with dust traveling through different inch derived Mesh Sizes
    • There is also an ISO standard (which may differ from the Federation of European Producers of Abrasives or FEPA Standard), Sovie or rather now Russian/Some of Eastern Europe Lingering Standard, the JIS or Japanese Industrial Standards, and probably more!
  • Also aggressiveness of the abrasive, and the abrasice's Surface Roughness / the topology and charachteristics of the abrasive particles themselves are also other factors of importance
  • Granted you dear reader are probably just thinking "pass me the damn 120 Grit Sanding Block" to which i say fine, but also here are some links i found and will use later:
    • Wikipedia Page Table on Grit even wikipedia doesn't know!
    • Gritomatic - Grit Fundamentals (Seems like a knife sharpening material supplier? GREAT article + overview though)
    • ISO 6106:2013 Abrasive products Checking the grain size of superabrasives (The ISO Standard Mentioned, may be behind a paywall though )
    • A Mix of Article/Advertisement by 3M Titled "What Does "Grit" Mean? L2 Product Name (variable) Technical Talk What Does "Grit" Mean? Revision B, March 2020" (Latter part is borderline an ad, so along with the knife sharpening company Media Literacy and all that but 3m does cook one MEAN sandpaper, ngl )
• A Video by the YouTube Channel "New Mind" Titled "The Incredible Technology Behind Sandpaper" ( ~18 Minute Watch ]
  • This was what got the gears in my mind turning about this a while back, and is a GREAT watch, just thinking about surface roughness for that one page set me off on this rant
• But yeah rant on that bit is over

Alternatives to Raspberry Pi, Especially for NAS/Server Use

• Zimaboard / Zimacube (Seems to be similar levels of OS / OS Friendly,
  • An Article by "MakeUseOf" Titled "ZimaBoard vs. Raspberry Pi: Which Is Best for Your Self-Hosted Server Project?"
  • As per A Video by the YouTube Channel "Hardware Haven" Titled "I Wanted This NAS To Be Good... | ZimaCube Review" however it seems like they have done some shady false advertising, and also did the whole "established company using kickstarter"-thing, which i am unsure how i feel about
• Interesting regardless
• I also went a bit down the rabbit hole of Is the Raspberry Pi Fully Open Source and if not, is there a FOSH SBC
  • Short answer was Software/Firmware Open Source, Schematics/Chipset no (If i understand correctly, further digging required)
  • In terms of proper snob-certified FOSS SBCs it seems like there is some FPGA based thing (can't seem to find the link, crap)
  • Unsure on level of open-ness, but i Also found:
    • Libre Computer
      • A 2023 Article by "Liliputing" Titled "Libre Computer’s Cottonwood single-board PCs promise up to 2X the performance of a Raspberry Pi 4"
    • Journey SBC
    • OLinuXino - Industrial Linux SBC
    • Yuzuki Chameleon
    • Efabless' CLEAR
      • An Article by "Hackster . io" Titled "Efabless' CLEAR Is a Fully Open Source ASIC with Embedded FPGA and RISC-V Core, Now on GroupGets"
• This next one seems to be in the "Computer Case" category, but 45HomeLab (A Division of 45 Drives ) has a PC Case Looking thing with 15 Drive Bays

Archival Knowledge I Picked Up in Passing

• So i knew about Acid Free Paper and all that, but turns out fasteners can be an issue as well
• A lot of this is in the context of making a box and leaving it in the library with no checking on it etc, so the ol' check on it every year or so trick could probably make it irrelevant, still interesting though:
  • Even though they are natural latex (i think), Rubber Bands will decay and either become brittle or sticky, either way they supposedly stain paper+make recovery more difficult
  • Staples can Rust
• Finding Aids / the sort of crazyness of File/Table System design but with Physical Records and all the interesting types of boxes and whatnot
  • Hollinger Boxes / your standard "office box" are a thing but there are all sorts of other ones

DAMN errr rather Dam...Stuff

• Practical Engineering (YouTube Channel) made this video titled "How Fish Survive Hydro Turbines" ( ~20 Minute Watch ) and it DID mention Eel Ladders and misc things along that (and supposedly this is the next series of sorts after all the railway stuff)
  • I was commenting on all that and referenced something i heard on NPR about controlled/simulated floods which helped Sediment travel past the dam, and thus helped sandbars and all sorts of deposition of the eroded sediment caused stuff downriver
  • I grabbed the link for someoen who asked today, here is the link An NPR Segment from "All Things Considered" Titled "Drought puts a stop to artificial floods that have helped restore habitat which aired at OCTOBER 13, 20224:54 PM ET
• There is some smithsonian article on a similar note here: A 2015 Smithsonian Magazine Article Titled "Here’s Why Scientists Want to Flood the Grand Canyon Without sediment flowing through the canyon, it loses sandbars vital to the river ecosystem"
• As per this quote from the first npr bit, it supposedly has been done since the 90s:
  • " There's kind of some calm areas. And the back of the eddy is kind of tucked in behind the sandbars, called backwaters or return channels, that are a critical habitat for a bunch of the native aquatic species.

SEVIGNY: That includes four endangered native fish. In the '90s, Federal river managers started to experiment with artificial floods, ramping up the water released from the dam over several days. These floods are small compared to what used to come down the river but four or five times higher than typical dam releases. It worked."

Printing Stuff

• Not going to let myself go too far this rabbit hole, have to get things done today, BUT:
  • Interesting Link Spam:
    • The Wikipedia Page on Inkjet Technology
    • The Wikipedia Page on Continous Ink Systems
    • The Wikipedia Page on Supertank Printers
    • The Wikipedia Page on Dye-Sublimation Printing
• I saw those Handheld Inkjet Printers a while back and they are definitely slick for packaging, also can make temporary tattoos if i remember correctly which was neat, (i could even use them for your events at a swim meet lol, kids these days, back in MAH day we had to use sharpie markers, all those young wippersnappers lol, would overkill as hell but could be cool, better than my shaky hands)
• There is a channel on YouTube where someone is documenting their development of a Continuous Inkjet printer. I forget if it was for Binder Jetting 3D Printing / something akin to Polyjet , or for marking, although it could do both i suppose if it turns out to work well enough
• The bit on Dye Sublimation (As opposed to Inkjet Printers and Laser Printers ) is that they make way better photo prints supposedly
• Those Polaroid Instant Film things have been all the rage recently, but i love my Digital Photography workflow and *not having to worry about film* (those disposable film cameras were the worst as a kid, "oh boy time to take a picture of that, let me just knob doesn't twist anymore WHELP" spoiled these days i guess)
  • SO i was looking into if there are any mobile / at least very small (ie laptop or smaller / kind of Shoebox sized, not a giant box (like a high quality home / classroom printer) or dedicated tower (like an office printer)
  • Then i learned that inkjets aren't all that great
  • Anyhow Cannon has this line called the "Selphy"
    • The Page for the Selphy CP1500 Model has a Comparison vs the smaller one
    • They also have some ZINK Paper based one, but that's not my interest at least
  • My Main Concerns are
    • Ink Cost, and can other sizes of paper / finishes be used (ie can it only run with dye sublimation compatible paper, or can cut out sections of cheap A4 Printer Paper etc work in a pinch?) (if the answer is no it needs the specific paper, then paper cost is an aspect as well)
    • Reliability / Right to Repair friendly-ness (All great until it breaks and/or they no longer make the product
  • My Dream one would (maybe via a "passthrough slot" that could flip up if need be) do 16x9, 21x9, and other "widescreen" formats, square formats, and your standard Polaroid/Instax/Selphy aspect ratio prints, so it can just do *anything*
    • Could be neat to *maybe* do document prints in a pinch, but would be tiny so impractical and goofy, also probably more expensive ink vs a cheap inkjet
• Just dumping all this on-here for any other nerds, now i gotta get back to the important stuff lol

Carpet Stuff

• This whole rabbit hole was started by me looking for the "proper" term for that "Low Pile/High Traffic/"Commercial" Carpet"
• Also Carpet Padding Versus Carpet Cushion
• I didn't find a good answer to that (granted no need to be snobby as long as the point gets across lol), BUT i found all sorts of other interesting stuff
• Not too useful for now, but especially if i go into an edit rampage on the Threadwork Construction Set or something this would be tangentially related
• Wikipedia mainly has stuff on Persian Rugs and all that, sadly not too much on modern technical stuff
  • Some Neat Pages Though:
    • Knotted-pile carpet / Knots Density
    • Rug hooking
    • Carpet Tiles
    • Also on a note related to threadwork overall Chenille Fabric / Chenille Yarn
• Granted it's a Company so need to be cognizant of a conflict of interest and so on, but Home Depot had

this very good article on the basics

• Now just link spam
  • Carpet Land Online - The Benefits Of Carpet Tiles
  • An Archived 1975 NYT Article Titled "New Carpeting Standards Set In F. H. A. Guaranteed Housing"
    • I saw the "FHA Certified" rating without explanation, turns out it is basically making it so contractors can't use absolute garbage materials to prevent some of that issue, pretty neat
  • Healthier Choice - Carpet Padding Versus Carpet Cushion. There’s a difference.
    • Basically just an advertisement' so keep that in mind, but basically describes the differences between using essentially a solid sheet of new Memory Foam / PU Foam vs Rebonded Foam etc
  • Rubpad USA - Carpet Pads vs Carpet Padding: Which One Should You Get? (Might just be referring to those anti-slip mats for rugs?)
  • Carpet Cave - Carpet Padding 101 Absorbing the Abuse
  • Pelltier Rug Co - The Three Types of Carpet Installation (Direct Glue Down, "Double Glue Down" which glujes the underlayment first, and Stretch In Carpet Installation]

DJI Drone Genealogy Stuff

• An Article by the Blog "Dr Drone" Titled "Timeline of DJI Drones"

2/26/2024

• A Jam Bar was in one of my tabs, don't know why, was maybe tied to me looking into what tools were needed for dissasembling+cleaning that Single Cylinder Diesel Engine pre-running it (was done due to their poor quality control etc in the factories ( Iron Triangle and all that, has to be cheap somehow)
  • The weeks/months back i was looking into all that i also was looking into Impact Wrenches (Specifically Cordless Electric Impact Wrenches ) and Torque Wrenches
  • There were a few reviews of them, a few Multi-Fuel Capability tests using not just Fossil Diesel , but also Biodiesel , WVO , PPO , and even WMO although unless if used for an emergency need, Waste Lubricating Oil Recycling is heavily preferable as Base Oils are complex to make "from scratch" yet the process for recycling is basically filtration, Fractional Distillation and *maybe* some additives/blending with some new (to make up for Thermal Decomposition i'd imagine, there is some engineer out there who has a whole channel on niche lubrication and grease science in all the additives/applications)

• Energy . gov "How Gas Turbine Power Plants Work - Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management"
• Mitsubiri Power - Combustor Technologies Supporting Stable Operation Gas Turbines
  • Shows use of the term by industry + good information
• The YouTube Channel "Engelbrecht GmbH"
  • The have This Great Playlist made up of their videos titled "Gas Turbines" (7x 10-20 minute very high quality videos of a general overview, future outlook, then the whole history of Gas Turbine Power Plants
    • Also on a more relevant note, the playlist "Gas Turbine Combustors" (which hasd 4x 10-20 Minute Videos) This goes over the original Single Burner Silo Gas Turbine Combustors (Although for more Throttle Range / Multi-Fuel Capability nozzles can be arranged in different rings around a core pilot flame etc) which is also what most DIY Jet Engines seem to use (although they use a more aviation-like inline combustor rather than the Gas Turbine based Countercurrent Heat Exchanger with the Air Intake and exhaust type design mentioned that were often used
    • They also cover how issues with NOx Emissions and Particulate Matter have pushed the designs towards Premixed Flame Combustors using natural gas, and colder flames
    • Dry Low-NOx etc
    • Also all sorts of engineering grade technical stuff on flame stability and all sorts of great info
  • Maximum Expander Turbine (Inlet) Temperature is another major concern, both from preventing engine rich combustion / other damage, but also efficiency (All the Optimal Cycle Efficiency and all that)
• The YouTube Channel "AgentJayZ" is pretty good as well (~15 Years and 700+ Videos), although more aviation focused and from a mechanic's perspective

Biomass Briquette Stuff

• https://solidbiofuels.com/pini-kay-briquettes/ - Solid Biofuels dot com - "Pini Kay Briquettes"
• Could the CEB press do these?
• I was looking at making Paper Briquettes or something akin to Pulp Molding since recently the MSW company for my area quit taking "non-valuable recycling"; granted makes sense to an extent, and this may have meant they were just doing the Enron esque shipping it all over the place for speculating on bale cost etc, then china banned importing all that and the market crashed
  • BUT i do hate landfills
  • I was then looking into Dioxins and whatnot, and granted it wouldn't be horrible, but it is probably best short of the occasional campfire to leave it to proper incinerators/Waste to Energy plants or even ( *shudder* ) Florida's Dear Bioreactor Landfills
  • Still sucks though, so that was my train of thought going into this
  • Some decent designs out there, plus a few low pressure manual presses online, amazon even, but yeah lots of work (+Investment) for small benefit (without a Rocket Mass Heater , TEG Stove , or Gasifier and generator setup etc so yeah

Ionic Liquids

• I don't know much about them (yet), that starts getting into proper chemistry university class level stuff, but they may be worth a look
• One of the Coal Upgrading papers mentioned Imidazole based Ionic Liquid as a solvent of sorts (Comparing that to the misc recent Green Chemistry Solvents) is another good thing to look into related to all this
• Also related to batteries, fuel cells, and whatnot (makes sense, Electrochemistry and all that, but i think this was more of a permanent thing)
• Either way wanted to get this out of my brain/chrome tabs and onto the wiki so there it is lol

Misc

• A 2020 Study Titled "Experimental investigation of axisymmetric, turbulent, annular jets discharged through the nozzle of the SPP1980 SpraySyn burner under isothermal and reacting conditions" (Found this when digging for gas turbine combustor nozzle papers, seems to be some sort of torch/nozzle for Flame Spectroscopy ?
• Waste Heat Recovery Unit / Heat Recovery Boiler vs Heat Recovery Steam Generator

    • Mentions a "longwall changeover" as per
      • https://ro.uow.edu.au/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1216&context=coal this
    • That is when they stop one "run", disassemble, and move the equipment to the next section
• Stuff such as this
• https://boyuecarbon.en.made-in-china.com/product/lZAtogFKfLad/China-Ultra-Pure-Coal-Granular-Activated-Carbon-for-Gold-Recovery.html
• Described and sold like activated carbon, but also uses the terms coal, so either translation error/lax terminology, or actual coal derived?
• Some Inline Air Duct Carbon Filter mentioned activated australian coal or something which started me down this rabbit hole if i remember correctly
  • Was looking into these when i was plotting an Exhaust Scrubber for a Laser Cutter (and probably the 3d printer as well for good measure)

Gas Turbine Stuff

• Bit of Terminology Hell on what to call the part of a Gas Turbine or Jet Engine that the combustion happens in, Combustor and Burner are used it seems?
• Either way the bit after the Air Intake and Compressor where the Fuel and Air Burn
• In digging into UCC there were some papers on design for Can Style Annular Combustors that used aerosolized (or was it a Slurry Fuel ? ) UCC Dust
• "Combustion Chamber" -> Combustor makes more sense, leave "Burner" for things like the Babington Burner and things for (Non Waste Heat Recovery Boiler ) Boilers

and Fired Process Fluid Heaters etc

• Still useful to use for digging for papers potentially

2/15/2024

• "Stone Facade" was the wrong term i heard for "Stone Veneer / Stone Cladding" so i also made redirects on the Wikipedia Side upon finding that out
  • In doing so i also found:

    • [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panel_edge_staining
    • [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-skin_facade
• I can't seem to find it, but when looking into Ionizing Radiation Shielding to look for the right term to put on that Wall Coverings page internal links bit (I ended up using Fixed Permanent Wall Radiation Shielding (Not as snobby as i would want but without the ionizing radation clarification it got waaaaaaaaaaaay more search results so is probably the better term) i found some interesting things:
  • https://www.nuclear-shields.com/radiation-shielding/lead-shielding.html "Nuclear Shields - Lead Shielding" (All sorts of Examples)
  • https://marshield.com/pre-fab-lead-lined-wall-panels/ "MarShield - X-Ray E-Z Shielding Wall Panels"
• Also i can't seem to find it, but i remember seeing some plastic that somehow was a damn good radiation shield (it was either that or a neutron moderator)
• Either way it was wild to see, but also exciting from an Appropriate Materials perspective, and Lead Free Solution (All though worse case scenario, Beryllium works if i remember correctly)
• Pile of Wikipedia Pages i met along the way:
  • Demron
  • Vectran
  • Nomex
  • UHMWPE (It may have been Polyethylene as it adsorbs it to crosslink?)
  • Aramid
  • Polybenzimidazole fiber
• I think there was one with some sort of page on "amount of material needed to stop x" or it was "electron cross section of misc materials" or something along those lines, tell me if u find it before me! (Also an opportunity for Marcin to rack the brain for old Memories of University Study Cards or something lol), granted more pressing matters hence me dropping all this on here
• "Hardyboard" and "Permabase" are Cement Board i think, but may be worth documenting/checking the wiki for (taking up tabs (and more importantly RAM) though!)

2/13/2024

• Misc Chemicals i Had in Open Tabs but Partially Forget Why:
  • Triethylamine
  • Furfuryl alcohol
  • Hexane
  • Dibutyl ether
  • Isobutylene
  • UHMWPE / Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene
  • Xylidine
• Portal Axles (A thing that actually gives you more Ground Clearance (ie not going to scrape the transmission and differential on some things as easily, not just Ride Height (ie make (commuter...) truck tall but still have the same ground clearance) )
  • Found them when looking into CTIS (either that or odd Planetary Gearboxes and Cyclodial Gearboxes (Sidenote found a new on the other day, made a YT Playlist on it, need to document on-wiki) and all that; seem pretty neat: A Video by the YouTube Channel "Mick Tighe 4x4 & Outdoors" Titled "Get to Know: Marks 4WD Portal Axles (p3.)" ( ~1 Minute Watch )

2/11/2024

• I can't seem to find if i put it On-Wiki (May just be on the discord a while back, or still in my personal horde), but i saw an article a while back on "Eternal Spare Parts" or "Spare Parts for Life" something along those lines
• Essentially was usage of Digital Twinning / a Parts Library and Digital Fabrication (Especially 3D Printing ) to make needing to have Warehouses full of Spare Parts (Or molds for them etc) obsolete
  • This would also mean that a car wouldn't become so old that spare parts are hard to find, think old Honda Accord or a Miata, but not only are there a pile of OEM Spare Parts, or Third Party Replacement Parts / Third Party Modification Kits but Files for Digitally Fabricatable Parts as long as the internet is alive and/or there is a copy of those files on some format somewhere
  • All i can find for now is this link: https://www.forbes.com/sites/oliverwyman/2017/03/06/3d-printing-is-already-starting-to-threaten-the-traditional-spare-parts-supply-chain/?sh=3c45e3362646 Article by Forbes 3D Printing Is Already Starting To Threaten The Traditional Spare Parts Supply Chain - 2017
• Is there a category page that isn't the Category for Parts Library that all major CAD Pages / Assembly Files for misc projects, such as the page to be put? (If not i'll add them to the parts library one for now; i think new people/people digging for a file being able to "browse" through all the CAD Files, aspecially assembly for major products would be of use)
• Heard about a "Jam Saw" / "Jam Cutter" mentioned as an older/niche power tool for woodworking, not too much online documentation it seems?

On the Availability of Carbide/Diamond Blades for Recipricating Saws and/or Cordless Bandsaws

• Not sure on band saws due to their flexibility, but recipricating saws should be somewhat straightforward
• Unsure on Diamond etc, but the Milwaukee NITRUS CARBIDE™ Blades are the way to go for Oscillating Tools (Can cut through nearly anything, so nail won't destroy your wood blade etc, also just versitile)
  • Can't seem to find what it is made of, just promotional bs
  • Can probably find a more objective source (Like Project Farm etc), but asking around on jobsites it was the way to go (especially one of the Light Demo/Framer/Drywaller guys said so)
• Unsure how it compares to Diablo Carbide Options
• Link mentioning these, and some other interesting things like coated fastners: https://protoolinnovationawards.com/winners/2023-pro-tool-innovation-awards/accessories/

• I can't seem to find the video on abrasives where Bob Moffatt met with an abrasives manufacturer/expert
• Unless i'm misremembering and this is the video: A Video by thew YouTube Channel "Lets Weld Something" Titled "Abrasives with Grinder Al!"
• Main notes are:
• Neat Abbreviation for Abrasive Selection: ATM: Application (What are you trying to do) Tool (What size grinder / other type of tool) Metal (Is it Mild Steel or something like Aluminum that can clogg the abrasive
• Mentioned different abrasives, Aluminum Oxide , Zirconium Oxide , and some unnamed Ceramic
  • One of them must have been the same material for that 3M Purple Sandpaper, i forgot if i documented it on-wiki yet, basically the grains fracture when dull so it "resharpens" until it's a small stub so lasts real long, also done on a mesh disk so it can extract most if not all the dust, saw some of the sandpaper/sanding block form on a jobsite, unsure if it's the same, although i think diablo is selling a washable mesh based sanding block now?
• The video i am thinking of mentioned how the abrasives work/can be clogged. It also mentioned the risk of mixing metals (you can make a sort of accidental thermite if i remember correctly).
• It also mentioned an Encapsulated Wire Wheel whichg supposedly had the same function, but less likely to launch old wires around and/or last longer
• Also Variable Speed Grinders are supposedly better as Flap Disks like lower RPMs

Prismatic vs Cylendrical vs Pouch Battery Cells

• This is probably deserving of it's own page, but Dewalt recently swapped to pouch for their latest "Power Stack" Batteries
  • TLDR: Is more Specific Amp Hours
  • My Concerns are Longevity?
• The Chevy Volt used Prismatic if i remember correctly\
• Also odd bit tripping me up is "prismatic pouch" vs "prismatic can" cells might be different? I thought prismatic was it's own distinct category
• They all work at the end of the day, just different trade offs and i don't know enough yet, and have other priorities

"CoolBot" Stuff

• A Company that makes something adjacent to the Freezer to Refrigerator Conversion project
• It takes a standard Window Mounted Air Conditioner (And maybe a Mini-Split Air Conditioner and uses it to run a DIY Walk-in Freezer (Or Walk-in Refrigerator ? " Cool Room " may be the more generic term?)
• It seems to be a common choice on various homesteading channels and such
• I'm just a bit taken back by the price tag, need to see how adaptable the Freezer to Refrigerator Conversion Controller is, may be a cheap OS Hit!
• Also potential for Cold Chain stuff is intruiging

• https://www.yinfor.com/2012/01/hdmi_vs_component_vs_composite.html
  • On what analog video format is best
  • Main takeaway is: "For video quality, from best to worst are:

Component > S-Video > Composite > Coaxial"

• Also this was a while ago, but there is a neat FPGA based Analog to Digital Video Converter
  • Aimed mainly at the Vintage Gaming Community, as things designed for CRT Displays don't transfer to Pixel Based Systems well and have various artefacts
  • The device can fix those/tweak all sorts of things, yet also has negligable latency
  • Quite Pricy though :(

• Stuff on Shantytown Fires, the Risk of Them Happening + Spread Speed / Lethality
  • Haven't looked too much into this, have anecdotal evidence, and some English Language news articles, may need to dig further to get proper local news coverage, and may even need to use local news in local language through "Translate Tab" etc, could also potentially ask around a bit

• In the context of the Photonic Radiative Cooling i was thinking of something i saw a while back and thought i had on-wiki
  • It was discussing the issue of Water Usage for Solar Plants/Farms
  • It mentioned "Wet" Condensers (Ie Cooling Towers and Spray Ponds ) and how dry condensers are too expensive/complex etc
    • Granted it hasn't been around long enough to estimate durability, or done any Accelerated Aging tests etc (also the potential issue of microplastic pollution with the current formulation), but this technology may make that far more viable!
  • Either way grabbing that article + related papers on the concept is a good idea for another time where i have more time

  • The main bit i was going to say somewhere/was thinking about was the "layers" of Self Sealing Fuel Tanks / How that has changed with time
    • Originally it was Fuel-Vulcanized Rubber-Crepe Rubber (Or some similar "goop")-Vulcanized (Or at least cured/processed, ie not "raw") Rubber-(Optional Abrasion Resistant Cloth)
    • I need to get a better picture of specifics
    • Also this is heavily intertwined with Latex Processing so those could be fit into the same day/rabbit hole adventure sometime in the future, as the whole Dandelion Latex project is interesting and quite useful seeming (although short of Aircraft Tires i am unsure on if Latex is Obsolete to Synthetic Elastomers and whatnot)
• Tangential Flow Filtration / Cross Flow Filtration

• Organocatalysis
  • Organic Molecules as Catalysts
  • I don't know to what degree this is a thing, what durability they have, and it may be a leading edge emerging technology (was one of the recent nobel prizes iirc)
  • Along with Solid Acids and Organic Redox Flow Batteries though is i n t e r e s t i n g as Platnum Group Metals / Rare Earth Metals are one of those annoying limits of Battery/Fuel Cell/Catalytic Reactor Production ESPECIALLY from a small scale perspective, mineral reserves are misleading so that isn't too much of an issue
• The concept of a Gear Cloner
  • Akin to a Template Lathe but in a Gear Cutter
  • Get your calipers, measure the gear's parallel to shaft axial thickness, then grab a "blank" that thick
  • Put it in the machine, trace existing (broken) gear with a sylus (or just have a scan workflow, perhaps Rotoscope in Inkscape
  • Machine cuts you a new gear and you are good to go
  • I've been wanting one of these due to fixing things around the house only for them to have broken teeth on the gears, or the shaft no longer fitting right, no set screw mechanism in cheap crap etc, granted did find the source for one of the small gears in non-1 metric ton form)
  • Cloning with a Silicone Mold and either Silicone/Epoxy/PU Casting can work too
• "Depleted Zinc Oxide" / Zinc Injection in regards to Boiler Feedwater Treatment
  • It may be nuclear industry specific, but it had to do with corrosion somehow, similar to how the chromium works in stainless steel, that level of chemistry stuff

• I found this a while back, but don't have enough content (or understanding for that matter!) to make a page on it, so i'll leave it here for now:
  • Mixed Conducting Membranes (Seems almost like a PEM but for ions, typically Oxygen, so one can make an Oxy-Fuel Combustion based power plant without needing an Atmosphere Separation Unit ?
    • Links on this Topic:
      • NETL "9.1.1. CARBON DIOXIDE CAPTURE APPROACHES"
      • 7.3.1. "CO-PRODUCING H2 WITH CURRENT IGCC TECHNOLOGY"
        • I encountered the terms "Ion Transport Membranes" and "Ceramic Autothermal Reactor" in this diagram under "Oxygen Supply" which lead to me looking into this
      • Encyclopedia of Membranes - Mixed Conducting Membranes
      • "Process Design Characteristics of Syngas (CO/H2) Separation Using Composite Membrane"
      • "Novel cycles for power generation with CO2 capture using OMCM technology"
      • "Mixed ionic-electronic conducting (MIEC) membranes for thermochemical reduction of CO2: A review"
      • "Development of a Novel Oxygen Supply Process and its Integration with an Oxy-Fuel Coal-Fired Boiler"
      • "Roadmap for Sustainable Mixed Ionic-Electronic Conducting Membranes"
      • Calcium titanate was connected somehow, might have been a related mineral compared to Natural vs Synthetic Zeolite
• This is along the lines of Dilbit / Synbit / Fuel Oil , but this is a study i found a while back and documenting here. I came across it when looking into Fuel Storage / Fuel Settling etc:
  • A 2022 Study Titled "Comparative Study of Light Cycle Oil and Naphthalene as an Adequate Additive to Improve the Stability of Marine Fuels"
• Some Stuff on Surface Treatment :
  • I was originally looking into Diamond Like Carbon (and/or full on Monocrystaline Chemical Vapor Deposition formed diamond) due to the high heat conductivity, low friction, and high strength (although ability to be scratched =/= ability to be shattered/fractured i'd assume, so i'm intrigued about that
  • Either way in looking up that i came across this video ( "Why Do NASCAR Teams Use This Technology? | Calico DLC Coatings [TECH TALK" by "High Performance Academy" ] ~14 Minute Watch) where someone was discussing it's Automotive Applications
    • In the comments, someone mentioned:
      • "WPC and Deep Cryogenic Processing. You DCT first then WPC.. and applying Ceramic Coatings and Thermal dispersants to the correct areas does some amazing things"
  • WPC was some sort of super secret Shot Peening but with powder, as per This Motor Trend Article, "Shot Peening & WPC Treatment - Special Treatment, Part 1 - Tech"
• In terms of Deep Cryogenic Treatment (DCT), i found these articles posted on Thermal Processing Magazine's Website:
  • Deep Cryogenic Treatment - By Frederick J. (Rick) Diekman -April 5, 2013 - DCT is a very important process to the gear making industry. If done correctly, it can increase product durability and reduce tooling costs.
  • Take Another Look at Deep Cryogenic Treatment - By Frederick Diekman -January 15, 2020 - Research being done on this process is showing that it can be advantageous to creating longer-lasting products and tools that cost less.
• High-frequency impact treatment was a needlegun / tatoo gun like alternative to "Peening" with a Chipping Hammer used for Weld Treatment post-weld in the field that may be worth a look
  • I did remember when Welding Cast Iron you had to Peen it with the chipping hammer to prevent cracking, supposedly a very difficult to weld material nonetheless

Misc Good Products

• Will probably make these industry standards for the respective pages/projects if/when they are made:
• EcoTank ET-3830 Wireless Color All-in-One Cartridge-Free Supertank Printer with Scan, Copy, Auto 2-sided Printing and Ethernet
  • One of those printers with a vat, rather than cartridge system, makes it much less of a Monopoly, so cheaper, and also may allow for using your own Open Source Ink and/or doing crazy stuff like Bio-Printing or PBJ Printing
• Keurig K-Duo Plus Coffee Maker, Single Serve and 12-Cup Carafe Drip Coffee Brewer, Compatible with K-Cup Pods and Ground Coffee, Black
  • Can use single service pods (preferably the diy refillable ones, and not the Plastic Waste Generating Nightmare Ones...), or full coffee filters for a full pot
  • Also the water container is removable so you can just hold it under the sink or refrigerator water dispenser and be done
  • Bit pricy, but it is built like a tank and get it on a sale at some local place probably
    • {{{Or just Reverse Engineer and Make the Ultimate Open Source Drip Coffee Maker (Let alone the Open Source Super-Automatic Espresso Machine ...}}}
  • Main downside is it doesn't have a separate Hot Water Spout, so anything other than coffee (tea, or running it empty for hot water) has a weak coffee taste added to it
    • {{{Again all the more reason to hack one and/or reverse engineer one!}}}
• Any of the Shark Lift-Away Vacuums
  • Very modular; you can ditch the handle and base if you are just walking around Vacuum Dusting etc
  • Now if only i could have a Ryobi 40v Battery slot onto it!

Misc Coatings/Sealants Etc

  • HoldTight 102 / HoldTight 102 Salt Remover / Flash Rust Inhibitor
  • Applied Temporary Rust Preventative (A4320)
  • PR-100 Rust Inhibitor
  • Axxanol™ Anti-Corrosion Oils (Seems to be Modern Version of WD-40 and Cosmoline ; some of them aren't Water Soluable? )
  • ACF-50 (Seems like a modernized version of WD-40 with the addition of Corrosion Inhibitors
    • AIRCRAFT MATERIALS FOR CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL: A QUALIFIED PRODUCTS LIST - FAA 1993
    • A 2021 Article by "BikeSocial" Titled "Best rust inhibitor | How to prevent corrosion on your motorcycle" (They did some decently scientific Corrosion Testing with a time lapse, also did a "stickyness test" utilizing sand) (I'll Add the videos later, only the summary page for now, also an Open Source Sample Corrosion Resistance Testing Apperatus would be really neat to automate the process + make banks of them for larger groups (most tests have done 1 coupon per variable, 3 or even 5 would be better)

• Trichloroethylene / Dense Non-Aqueous Phase Liquids
• Uroshiol
• Chain extender (This may have been what i was thinking in terms of the chemical that can "revive" degraded plastics, that and/or it's just a non-electron gun (or was it partical accelerator?) route to UHMWPE )
