The study of electron beam flue gas treatment for coal-fired thermal plant in Japan

The fundamental research work with simulated coal-fired flue gas was performed in JAERI to get basic data for electron beam treatment of flue gas from thermal power plants in Japan. The standard condition of the experiments was set to be the same as that of next large scale pilot test in Nagoya. The concentrations of NO_x and SO_x were 225 ppm and 800 ppm, respectively. The temperature of the system was 65°C. The effect of multiple irradiation was observed for NO_x removal. The target SO_x and NO_x removals (94% and 80%, respectively) with low NH₃ leakage (less than 10 ppm) were achieved at 9 kGy irradiation with 0.9 NH₃ stoichiometry during 7 hours continuous operation. The facility for the pilot plant (12,000 Nm³/hr) has just built at the site of Shin-Nagoya power plant of Chubu Electric Power Company and will be started in full operation in November 1992.     

煤中氯在亚临界水条件下的变迁

运用半连续反应装置对山西吴家坪煤和四川华蓥山煤中氯在亚临界水条件下的脱除规律及形态变化进行了研究。考察了反应温度和压力对氯脱除率的影响；同时还运用化学提取法对原煤及残渣中氯的形态进行了研究。研究结果表明,随着反应温度的升高，煤中氯的脱除率也增加，在410℃、15MPa、60min、水流量为580mL/h时，吴家坪煤中氯的脱除率为84.6%，华蓥山煤中氯的脱除率为72.4%。吴家坪煤中氯在15MPa时的脱除率最大。华蓥山煤中氯主要以有机氯的形态存在，而吴家坪煤中氯有8%为离子可交换态的无机氯，其余为有机结合的氯；在亚临界水萃取煤的过程中，离子交换态结合的有机氯比共价键结合的有机氯更容易挥发,有机氯要首先转化为无机氯然后再逸出。     

利用H2与金属氧化物的选择性反应从CO中除H2

研究了一些氧化物的H2－TPR及CO－TPR行为,结果发现,Co3O4／Al2O3,NiO／SiO2,NiO和Pd／NiO的H2－TPR温度要低于它们的CO－TPR温度,特别是Pd／NiO样品,它的H2－TPR温度为598K,而其CO－TPR温度高达949K,差别为351K,因此有可能利用Pd／NiO在一定温度下选择性地与CO中的H2反应而将其除去. 实验结果表明,Pd／NiO可在603K及4000h-1的条件下从H2（0.34％）,CO（50％）和N2（余）的混合气中选择性地除去90％以上的H2,吸氢容量为每克样品55mL标准态H2.

烟气中多环芳烃吸附脱除的研究

针对热电厂烟气中排放的多环芳烃（PAHs）污染物，在实验室规模上研究了六种吸附剂对烟气中典型的PAHs, 如萘（Nap）、芴（Flu）、菲（Phe）的吸附脱除行为。考察了吸附剂结构特征与Nap，Flu，Phe高温脱除的相关性，并对煤质活性炭（AC-1）在160 ℃～200 ℃下的吸附等温线进行了研究。结果表明，吸附剂对PAHs的吸附能力与其结构参数中BET表面积和微孔体积具有紧密相关性，而与中孔体积没有明显关系；活性炭表现出很好的脱除烟气中PAHs的作用；吸附剂对PAHs的吸附能力随着PAHs的质量分数增大而增大，随吸附温度的增加而减小；随着PAHs的碳原子数和芳环数增加，其在吸附剂上的吸附能力也增强。     

Protection of immobilized sulfhydryl groups against autooxidation by alterations in their microenvironment

Immobilized sulfhydryl groups were prepared by partial thiolation of NH₂-glass beads. The microenvironment of the immobilized SH groups was varied by different chemical modifications of neighboring NH₂ groups. Introduction of a strong charge in the surroundings of immobilized sulfhydryls results in their dramatic stabilization against autooxidation. This effect is due to the salting of O₂ from the surface microlayer of the thiolated beads.     

Synthesis of Nonracemic 9-(1-Methoxycarbonylethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazole

A new approach has been proposed to the synthesis of indole derivatives containing a chiral substituent at the nitrogen atom, comprizing Fischer indolization of phenylhydrazines with a chiral substituent at the -nitrogen atom. The initial hydrazines were obtained by the alkylation (Mitsunobu reaction applying optically active esters of lactic acid) of anilines containing an electron-accepting substituent at the amino group. Subsequent removal of the activating acceptor grouping was realized by nitrosation of the chiral secondary aniline followed by reduction of the corresponding N-nitroso compound.

Shape analysis based critical Eotvos numbers for buoyancy induced partial detachment of oil drops from hydrophilic surfaces

Removal of oil drops from solid surfaces immersed in an aqueous medium is of interest in many applications. It has been shown that drop shape analysis can be used to predict conditions at which the stability limit of a lighter than water oil drop on a solid surface immersed in an aqueous bath is reached (Adv. Colloid Interface Sci. 98 (2002) 265). However the above analysis is restricted to cases where the contact angle made by the drop is below 90degrees and when the surface conditions result in a 'pinned' contact line. In this paper, it is shown that drop shape analysis can be used to predict the critical conditions at which drop stability limit is reached for drop contact angles of 90degrees and above, which is encountered with 'hydrophilic' surfaces. This critical condition can predict the occurrence of partial oil drop detachment, before complete removal due to 'roll-up', which occurs when the hydrophilic surface is adequately smooth which prevents 'pinning' of the contact line. The critical conditions at which partial drop detachment occurs can also be approximately predicted from simple force balances. It has been shown (Adv. Colloid Interface Sci. 98 (2002) 265) that for contact angles less than 90degrees, the critical limit based on shape analysis appears to resolve the differences that arise due to alternate expressions for capillary retention force. This paper shows that even for contact angles above 90degrees, the critical conditions predicted from the shape analysis resolves the differences in the predictions from the alternate force balances. Drop shape analysis used in this paper is based on the 'Arc-length' form of Young-Laplace or 'drop shape' equation, which is different from the 'Y vs X' form of the above equation that is used in Adv. Colloid Interface Sci. 98 (2002) 265. The above drop shape equation is solved by a fourth order Runge-Kutta technique and it is shown that for angles less than 90degrees, the two forms of the drop shape equation, predict almost identical values of the critical Eotvos number. This paper highlights the competing effects of interfacial tension lowering induced drop instability and 'roll-up', a term that is used to describe the retraction of the contact line of an oil drop on a surface, in being the primary c ause for drop detachment.
