- In this study, the crystal structure and phase stability of gas atomized equiatomic AlCoCrFeNi powder was investigated. This alloy is usually described as a high entropy alloy forming a solid solution phase stabilized by a high mixing entropy. However, thermodynamic calculations show that the high entropy phase is stable only at very high temperatures close to the melting point and that a mixture of several phases are the most stable state at lower temperatures. This suggest that kinetic effects may influence the phase composition of atomized powder. The unique features of X-ray diffraction, neutron diffraction as well as transmission electron microscopy were used to study the atomic structure of the atomized powder in detail. The results show that the powder crystallises in an ordered B2 (CsCl-type) structure with a preferred site occupation of Al and Fe on the (1/2 1/2 1/2) position and Co and Ni on the (0 0 0) position. During heat-treatment of the powder, the B2 phase decomposes into fcc and sigma phases and the final phase composition is highly dependent on the heating rate. The effect of heat-treatment on the atomized powder was also investigated and revealed a significant phase transformation with e.g. the formation of sigma phase preferably at the surface of the powder particles. The phase content was also dependent on the size fraction of the powder particles. Sintering of green bodies made with different heat cycles showed that the phase composition of the starting material had a significant impact on the final phase composition and microstructure of the sintered components. The results illustrate the importance of well-defined powder materials for powder consolidation, especially additive manufacturing (binder jetting) of high entropy alloys.

- This study evaluates and compares the environmental impacts arising from the disposal of different carbonaceous sorbents used for wastewater treatment. Three different adsorption materials were considered, i.e. activated carbon, biochar and hydrochar, and three end-of-life management approaches, i.e. incineration, regeneration and landfilling. The highest overall environmental impact was of Carcinogenic effects and Freshwater Ecotoxicity due to emissions of heavy metals during production of all types of sorbents. The use of materials with higher adsorption capacities and regeneration of carbonaceous materials were considered and shown to be an efficient way for reducing the overall environmental impacts of the different adsorbents. The compensation of fossil fuel incineration by using recovered heat led to negative impacts in all categories. Recirculation of HTC process water reduced the impact on Freshwater Ecotoxicity and Eutrophication.
