The sodiation mechanism of TiO2 anatase was thoroughly investigated via X-ray absorption spectroscopy under operando conditions. The data set was analysed via an innovative and smart approach based on chemometric tools that allows the unbiased and reliable extraction of the maximum amount of meaningful information. The resulting data analysis reveals that the electrochemical sodiation mechanism is mainly based on the reduction of Ti4+ to Ti3+, going along with the irreversible amorphisation of the pristine anatase structure. At least one semi-amorphous intermediate is formed during the first discharge, whose local structure resembles those obtained at the end of the charge.

The local structure of dilute CrCl<sub>3</sub> in a molten MgCl<sub>2</sub>:KCl salt was investigated by <i>in situ</i> x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) at temperatures from room temperature to 800<sup>o</sup>C. This constitutes the first experiment where dilute Cr speciation is explored in a molten chloride salt, ostensibly due to the compounding challenges arising from a low Cr concentration in a matrix of heavy absorbers at extreme temperatures. CrCl<sub>3</sub> was confirmed to be the stable species between 200 and 500<sup>o</sup>C, while mobility of metal ions at higher temperature (>700<sup>o</sup>C) prevented confirmation of the local structure.
