Thermodynamic quantities for the extraction process were calculated.     

Speciation and Structural Properties of Hydrothermal Solutions of Sodium and Potassium Sulfate Studied by Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Aqueous solutions of salts at elevated pressures and temperatures play a key role in geochemical processes and in applications of supercritical water in waste and biomass treatment, for which salt management is crucial for performance. A major question in predicting salt behavior in such processes is how different salts affect the phase equilibria. Herein, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are used to investigate molecular‐scale structures of solutions of sodium and/or potassium sulfate, which show contrasting macroscopic behavior. Solutions of Na?SO₄ exhibit a tendency towards forming large ionic clusters with increasing temperature, whereas solutions of K?SO₄ show significantly less clustering under equivalent conditions. In mixed systems (Na_xK_2?xSO₄), cluster formation is dramatically reduced with decreasing Na/(K+Na) ratio; this indicates a structure‐breaking role of K. MD results allow these phenomena to be related to the characteristics of electrostatic interactions between K⁺ and SO₄^2?, compared with the analogous Na⁺?SO₄^2? interactions. The results suggest a mechanism underlying the experimentally observed increasing solubility in ternary mixtures of solutions of Na?K?SO₄. Specifically, the propensity of sodium to associate with sulfate, versus that of potassium to break up the sodium–sulfate clusters, may affect the contrasting behavior of these salts. Thus, mutual salting‐in in ternary hydrothermal solutions of Na?K?SO₄ reflects the opposing, but complementary, natures of Na?SO₄ versus K?SO₄ interactions. The results also provide clues towards the reported liquid immiscibility in this ternary system.     

Enthalpies of mixing of some aqueous electrolytes at 373.15 K

The enthalpies of mixing of a variety of aqueous electrolytes at an ionic strength of 1.000 mol·kg^?1 have been measured at 373.15 K. The mixtures studied were LiBr + KBr, NaBr + KBr, KBr + (C₄H₉)₄NBr, NaCl + Na₂SO₄, NaCl + MgCl₂, MgSO₄ + Na₂SO₄, MgCl₂ + MgSO₄, NaCl + MgSO₄, and MgCl₂ + Na₂SO₄. In contrast to most previous enthalpies of mixing of alkali halides, the mixtures with multivalent ions studied here often have large temperature dependences. The results for the mixtures involving MgSO₄ are consistent with a higher degree of ion pairing as the temperature increases. The present measurements, together with Gibbs energies of mixing at 298.15 K, allow the calculation of Gibbs energies of mixing at the higher temperature. This appears to be the most accurate and convenient method available for determining Gibbs energies of mixing at high temperatures.     

A study of the mechanochemical synthesis of TlCl nanoparticles by the method of dilution with the final product

The kinetics of the solid-state mechanochemical synthesis of the nanosized product (TlCl) in the reaction 2NaCl + Tl₂SO₄ + zNa₂SO₄ = (z + 1)Na₂SO₄ + 2TlCl was studied experimentlaly. The method used was based on the dilution of the initial mixture of powdered reagents (2NaCl + Tl₂SO₄) with another exchange reaction product (Na₂SO₄) at the optimum theoretically estimated z value, z = z* = 11.25. Several special features of the development of this reaction were established. The parameters of the kinetic curve obtained for the mechanochemical synthesis of the desired product were compared with those of the kinetic curve determined theoretically for the model reaction KBr + TlCl + zKCl = (z + 1)KCl + TlBr with z = z ₁ ^* = 13.5. This allowed us to experimentally estimate the mass transfer coefficient in a mechanochemical reactor by mobile milling bodies. This estimate was obtained for the first time. The dynamics of changes in the size of desired product nanoparticles depending on the time of mechanochemical activation in an AGO-2 ball planetary mill was studied.     

Powder neutron diffraction of Tl2BeF4 at six temperatures from room temperature to 1.5 K

The structure of thallium fluoro­beryllate, Tl₂BeF₄, has been analysed by the Rietveld method on neutron diffraction patterns collected at 1.5, 50, 100, 150, 200 and 300 K, with the aim of detecting low‐temperature instabilities. Atomic parameters based on the isomorphic β‐K₂SO₄ crystal in the paraelectric phase were used as the starting model at room temperature; no evidence for any phase transition has been detected at lower temperature. The structure was determined in the ortho­rhom­bic space group Pnma. All the atoms (except one F atom) occupy sites with m symmetry. We have compared the structure with those of other compounds of the β‐K₂SO₄ family, at room temperature, in order to gain insight into their observed instabilities. The irregular coordination of the cations may indicate stereochemical activity of the Tl^I lone pair but does not indicate a possible structural instability.     

Solubility in K+-Na+-Mg 4 2− aqueous solution at T = 298.15 K

In the salt solubility predictions for K⁺-Na⁺-Mg ₄ ^2? aqueous solution the treatment of thermodynamic data of three-component systems at T = 298.15 K involved the application of the Extended Pitzer’s ion-interaction model for the pure and mixed electrolyte solutions and criteria of phase equilibrium. Osmotic coefficients data of three-component systems were revised according to recently published parameters of the solutions NaCl(aq) and KCl(aq) that served as reference standards in isopiestic measurements. Parameters of the extended ion-interaction model of K₂SO₄(aq) are determined by treatment of experimental and predicted values of osmotic coefficient in supersaturated region obtained by the Zdanovskii-Stokes-Robinson rule. Results of salt solubility prediction were compared to experimental solubility data from literature. The agreement between calculated and experimental solubility data in the systems K₂SO₄ + MgSO₄ + H₂O, Na₂SO₄ + MgSO₄ + H₂O, and Na₂SO₄ + K₂SO₄ + H₂O at T = 298.15 K, was excellent.

Its value at the temperature of fusion 1224 K was 70 ± 4 kJ mol⁻¹.

Mechanochemical Synthesis of Nanoparticles by a Dilution Method: Determination of the Particle Mixing Coefficient in a Ball Mill

Experimental study of the kinetics of mechanosynthesis of TlCl nanoparticles in the reaction 2NaCl + Tl₂SO₄ + zNa₂SO₄ = = (z + 1)Na₂SO₄ + 2TlCl with z = z^*₁ = z^* = 11.25 and comparison of kinetic parameters for this reaction with those determined theoretically for the model reaction KBr + TlCl + zKCl = (z + 1)KCl + TlBr with z = z^*₁ = 13.5 made it possible to estimate the mass transfer (mixing of particles) coefficient in a mechanochemical reactor by the mobile milling tools.     

Nd3+ and Am3+ ion interactions with sulfate ion and their influence on NdPO4(c) solubility

The effects of Nd(III)/Am(III) complexation with sulfate were studied by 1) re-examining existing data for the Am–SO₄ system using more, advanced aqueous electrolyte models valid to high concentration to obtain reliable thermodynamic data for SO ₄ ^2– complexes or ion interactions with Nd³⁺ and Am³⁺ and 2) conducting experimental solubility studies of NdPO₄(c), an analog phase of AmPO ₄ (c), a possibly important phase in high level nuclear wastes, in the presence of SO ₄ ^2– to test the newly developed thermodynamic model and show the possible influence of sulfate in a repository environment. The data showed that the increase in the solubility of NdPO ₄ (c) resulted primarily from the increase in ionic strength. Slightly higher observed Nd concentrations in the presence of sulfate, as compared with concentrations predicted at the experimental ionic strengths, resulted from the weak complexes or ion interactions involving Nd ³⁺ –SO ₄ ^2– . The Pitzer ion interaction parameters, applicable to 0.5m sulfate, were obtained for Am ³⁺ –SO ₄ ^2– from a reinterpretation of known solvent extraction data. These parameters are also consistent with literature data for Am ³⁺ /Na⁺ exchange and solvent extraction in the presence of sulfate. When used for the analogous Nd ³⁺ –SO ₄ ^2– system to predict NdPO ₄ (c) solubility in the presence of sulfate, they provided excellent agreement between the predicted and the observed solubilities, indicating that they can be reliably used to determine Nd ³⁺ or Am ³⁺ ion interactions with SO ₄ ^2– in all ground waters where SO ₄ ^2– is less than 0.5m     

The Solubility of Sodium Sulfate and the Reduction of Aqueous Sulfate by Magnetite under Near-Critical Conditions

The solubility of Na₂SO₄ (s) (thenardite) and the interactions between magnetiteand aqueous Na₂SO₄ near the critical point of water have been determined in azirconium-alloy flow reactor at temperatures 350°C t 375°C and isobaricpressures 190 p 305 bar. The experimental solubility data are describedwell as a function of temperature and solvent density ₁ byln x(Na₂SO₄, aq.) = –10.47 – 27550/T +(4805/T) ln ₁.The interaction between magnetite and Na₂SO₄ (aq.) was examined from 250 to370°C at molalities near the saturation composition of Na₂SO₄ (s). While no solidreaction products were observed, HS^– (aq.) was observed to form above 350°Cby sulfate reduction, as a product of the reaction8 Fe₃O₄(s) + Na₂SO₄ (aq.) + H₂O(l)= 12 Fe₂O₃ (s) + NaHS (aq.) + NaOH (aq.).The reduction reaction appears to be controlled by surface reaction kinetics, ata level well below the equilibrium molality of HS^– (aq.). Metallic iron reactedwith Na₂SO₄ (aq.) in a similar fashion at temperatures above 350°C, to yieldhigher molalities of HS^– (aq.).     

Absorption,desorption and interaction of SO2 with the binary system tetraethylene glycol + dimethyl sulfoxide

The gas-liquid equilibrium (GLE) data were determined for the mixture SO₂ + N₂ in the binary system of tetraethylene glycol (TeEG) + dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at T = 298.15–313.15 K and p = 123.15 kPa with the SO₂ partial pressures of 0.4–150 Pa. From GLE data, Henry’s law constants (HLCs) were obtained. When the SO₂ concentration in the gas phase was designed at y_SO2 = 500 ppmv, the SO₂ solubility in the binary system is located in a minimum of 9.36 mol m^?3 in TeEG and a maximum of 80.34 mol m^?3 in DMSO. The SO₂ absorption process was reversible from the five absorption–desorption cycles, and the solvents could repeat utilisation without obvious loss of absorption capacity and the homologous SO₂ desorption efficiency was nearby 98.7%. Furthermore, the spectral consequences illustrated that H-bonding was formed among TeEG, DMSO and SO₂.     

The Cloud Point Behaviors and the Liquid–Liquid Equilibrium of L31—Inorganic Sodium Salt Aqueous Two-Phase Systems

The cloud point (CP) of triblock-copolymer L31 aqueous solution was determined with salting-out salts (Na₂SO₄/Na₂CO₃/NaF/NaCl/NaBr). The results show that all these salts can decrease the CP of L31 aqueous solution and form aqueous two-phase system (ATPS). With increasing concentrations of Na₂SO₄ and Na₂CO₃, an obvious phase inversion could be observed and phase inversion points were found. This was mainly due to the change in density, the salt-rich phase shifted from the top phase to the bottom phase. Meanwhile, the liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) data for L31-Na₂SO₄/Na₂CO₃/NaF/NaCl/NaBr ATPSs were measured at 288.15 K. The salt ability to decrease the CP and to induce the phase separation is as follows: Na₂SO₄?>?Na₂CO₃, NaF?>?NaCl?>?NaBr. Finally, the order of anions that reduced the CP and caused phase separation was obtained as follows: SO₄^2? >CO₃^2?, F^??>?Cl^??>?Br^?.     

Structural evolution of Na0.5K0.5NbO3 at high temperatures

Changes in structure and dielectric properties at elevated temperatures have been investigated on single-crystals of sodium potassium niobate, Na_0.5K_0.5NbO₃, grown by the flux method. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies revealed that the crystals underwent orthorhombic-tetragonal and tetragonal-cubic phase transitions at 465 and 671 K during heating and 446 and 666 K during cooling, respectively. Both transitions were accompanied by volumetric discontinuities of collapse upon heating and expansion upon cooling, suggesting that the transitions were of the first order. The coordination numbers of an Nb showed a decreasing tendency with decreasing temperature, i.e., 6 in cubic, 5+1 in tetragonal and 4+2 in orthorhombic. An Na atom occupied a slightly different position from the K atom in 12-fold coordination, resulting in fewer coordination numbers of 8+4 in cubic and tetragonal and 7+5 in orthorhombic. The spontaneous polarisation (P_s) estimated from the atom positions and formal charges were approximately 0.29 C m⁻² in orthorhombic and 0.18 C m⁻² in tetragonal. The contribution of the alkaline oxide components to P_s was estimated to be approximately 15% in both ferroelectric forms. The temperature-induced transitions were also confirmed through the dielectric constant and dielectric loss at various frequencies and the differential scanning calorimetry.

Radiation induced stabilization of unusual oxidation states in Tl (I) Ln (III) (SO4)2.4H2O (Ln=Sm,Eu and Nd): EPR investigations

Double sulfates of thallium and lanthanides form an interesting series of compounds with first fractional crystallization leading to the formation of tetrahydrated double sulfates. The radiation induced defects including changes in the oxidation states were studied by carrying out EPR investigations of -irradiated Tl (I) Ln (III) (SO₄)₂.4H₂O (Ln=Sm, Eu and Nd) compounds. The important finding of these investigations is the formation of a radiation-induced paramagnetic center Tl²⁺ simultaneously with that of Eu²⁺, revealing their intrinsic association. Similar formation of Tl²⁺ was not observed in other rare earth salts, implying that the stability of the half-filled electronic configuration of Eu²⁺ may be responsible for the stabilization of Tl²⁺. Their relaxation back to Eu³⁺ and Tl⁺ simultaneously at 255 K gives further confirmation of their association and suggests that the matrix intrinsically does not favor the stabilization of Eu²⁺ as reported in a number of other matrices. The hyperfine coupling constant for Tl²⁺ was calculated using the Breit-Rabi equation and was found to be 80 GHz.
