纤维素热裂解反应机理及中间产物生成过程模拟研究

基于改进的B-S机理模型，通过求解物料内部和气相空间两段反应过程，对纤维素热裂解过程中一些化合物(活性纤维素、左旋葡聚糖(LG)、乙醇醛、丙酮醇等组分)的生成和演变情况进行了模拟。结果发现,自由水的脱除过程使物料前期升温速率发生了下降，并未影响热解期间温度分布以及反应过程。热裂解过程中，由于一次反应的强烈吸热，物料在长时间内局限于中温范围，其内部各组分质量浓度分布的区别主要体现出一次反应竞争能力的强弱。物料厚度的增加使热裂解时间延长，并加剧物料内部的二次分解。左旋葡聚糖和其竞争产物乙醇醛的生成出现一个大量生成、快速逃逸的过程，相比于左旋葡聚糖，乙醇醛质量浓度的积累具有更快的速度，体现出较高温度下的竞争优势。对于小尺寸反应物，挥发分二次反应主要发生在气相空间，随着气相停留时间的增加，其二次分解的程度提高，该效果随辐射源温度的提高而加剧。相比于LG产率随反应时间的快速下降趋势，高温下生物油产率的降低略显缓和，其变化主要是组分分布的改变，即从大分子结构降解为小分子结构。

Unital affine semigroups

Affine semigroups are convex sets on which there exists an associative binary operation which is affine separately in either variable. They were introduced by Cohen and Collins in 1959. We look at examples of affine semigroups which are of interest to matrix and operator theory and we prove some new results on the extreme points and the absorbing elements of certain types of affine semigroups. Most notably we improve a result of Wendel that every invertible element in a compact affine semigroup is extreme by extending this result to linearly bounded affine semigroups.     

Constructing and evaluating alternative frames of discernment

We construct alternative frames of discernment from input belief functions. We assume that the core of each belief function is a subset of a so far unconstructed frame of discernment. The alternative frames are constructed as different cross products of unions of different cores. With the frames constructed the belief functions are combined for each alternative frame. The appropriateness of each frame is evaluated in two ways: (i) we measure the aggregated uncertainty (an entropy measure) of the combined belief functions for that frame to find if the belief functions are interacting in interesting ways, (ii) we measure the conflict in Dempster’s rule when combining the belief functions to make sure they do not exhibit too much internal conflict. A small frame typically yields a small aggregated uncertainty but a large conflict, and vice versa. The most appropriate frame of discernment is that which minimizes a probabilistic sum of the conflict and a normalized aggregated uncertainty of all combined belief functions for that frame of discernment.     

Formation of tryptanthrin compounds upon Oxone-induced dimerization of indole-3-carbaldehydes

Tryptanthrin is a natural product with numerous important pharmacological properties. Tryptanthrin and its analogs are commonly prepared by condensation of isatoic anhydride and isatin. In this Letter we investigate the formation of tryptanthrin derivatives upon Oxone-induced oxidative dimerization of indole-3-carbaldehydes.     

Fluorescence Signal Enhancement Using Double Pass Cell Configurations

Abstract

A simple and reproducible method for increasing the sensitivity of fluorescence measurements by a factor of 2.0–2.5 is presented. Data are presented to explain: the deviation from the expected theoretical increase in sensitivity of 4.0; wavelength dependency and subsequent problems arising from enhanced inner filtering effects.     

Estimation of the solubility product of hydrocalumite–hydroxide,a layered double hydroxide with the formula of [Ca2Al(OH)6]OH·nH2O

From aqueous NaOH/Ca(OH)₂/NaAl(OH)₄ mixtures, after allowing short reaction times we observed the precipitation of Ca(OH)₂(s) at lower, and a mixture of Ca(OH)₂(s) and a layered double hydroxide, hydrocalumite (HC) at higher aluminate concentrations. From the maximum aluminate concentration, at which the equilibrium solid phase is still portlandite (i.e., further increase in the aluminate concentration results in HC appearing in the precipitate beside the portlandite), the concentration based solubility products of two polymorphs of HC with the formula of [Ca₂Al(OH)₆]OH·nH₂O (differing in n) has been estimated and was found to be log L_HC=−11.4 at 25 °C and −12.1 at 75 °C, respectively (where L_HC=[Ca²⁺]²[Al(OH)₄⁻][OH⁻]³) and at constant ionic strength (I=1 M NaCl). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first published estimate for the solubility product of hydrocalumite. Additionally, from the composition obtained for NaOH/Ca(OH)₂/NaAl(OH)₄ mother liquors in equilibrium with Ca(OH)₂(s), attempts were made to extract the formation constant of the ion pair CaAl(OH)₄⁺. It was found, that the effects caused by the supposed formation of this solution species are too small to be reliably determined, which allowed an upper estimate for its formation constant, K, to be suggested in the temperature range of 25–75 °C (K<200 and 40 M⁻¹ at 25 and 75 °C, respectively).
