Mathematical modeling of a slurry reactor for DME direct synthesis from syngas

In this paper,an axial dispersion mathematical model is developed to simulate a three-phase slurry bubble column reactor for direct synthesis of dimethyl ether(DME) from syngas.This large-scale reactor is modeled using mass and energy balances,catalyst sedimentation andsingle-bubble as well as two-bubbles class flow hydrodynamics.A comparison between the two hydrodynamic models through pilot plantexperimental data from the literature shows that heterogeneous two-bubbles flow model is in better agreement with the experimental data thanhomogeneous single-bubble gas flow model.Also,by investigating the heterogeneous gas flow and axial dispersion model for small bubblesas well as the large bubbles and slurry(i.e.including paraffins and the catalyst) phase,the temperature profile along the reactor is obtained.Acomparison between isothermal and non-isothermal reactors reveals no obvious performance difference between them.The optimum values ofreactor diameter and height were obtained at 7 m and 50 m,respectively.The effects of operating variables on the axial catalyst distribution,DME productivity and CO conversion are also investigated in this research.

Gastrennung mit Hilfe des Zirkulations-Diffusions-Verfahrens Teil I : Hochanreicherung von Gasen in Trennrohren mit natürlicher Zirkulation

Auf der Grundlage des Zirkulations-Diffusions-Prinzips wurden zwei Trennrohre für die Hochanreicherung von Gasen enytwickelt. Als Modellgasmischungen dienten H₂-N₂ Kr-CH₄ und Luft. Neben Wasserdampf wurden Methanol- und Äthaanoldämpfe als Treibmittel benutzt. Gute Trennungen wurden in einem nur 20 cm langen Rohr erzielt, dessen Trennspalt horizontal durch Lamellen in kleine Sektionen und durch ein Drahtdiaphragma vertikal in zwei Ringkammern geteilt wird. Drei Rohre dieses Typs wurden in einer rechteckigen Kaskadenanordnung getestet. Die Theorie des Transportes im Trennrohr sowie die Behandlung des hydrodynamischen Problems werden angegeben. Eine Anwendung des beschriebenen Trennrohres zur Isotopentrennung und zur Gashochanreicherung erscheint aussichtsreich.     

Reinvestigation of the ν2 + 2ν3 subband in the overtone icosad of 12CH4 using cavity ring-down (CRD) spectroscopy of a supersonic jet expansion

We report a detailed reinvestigation of the ν₂?+?2ν₃ combination band of methane ¹²CH₄ centred at (7510.3378?±?0.003)?cm^?1 ((225.154263?±?0.0001)?THz) within the icosad of the overtone absorption. A new experimental setup is described, allowing us to carry out cw-laser cavity ring-down spectroscopy (cw-CRDS) at instrumental resolution in the MHz range in seeded supersonic jet expansions down to rotational temperature of 7?K compared to previous cw-CRDS measurements in our group achieving about 50?K in expansions of neat CH₄. We provide a careful re-analysis on the basis of our new experimental results for the Q and R branch transitions including data obtained between about 7 and 300?K under various conditions. We resolve previously observed discrepancies of assignments and are able to present a definitive assignment for lines involving angular momentum quantum numbers up to J?=?4. The analysis of relative intensities in spectra taken at rotational and effective translational temperatures between about 50?K and less than 10?K indicate conservation of nuclear spin symmetry upon supersonic jet expansion, in agreement with previous results using other techniques and covering other spectral ranges.     

Surface reduction of freely floating smectic bubbles

Elongated freely floating smectic bubbles are observed during their relaxation to equilibrium sphere shape. Unlike soap bubbles that perform weakly damped oscillations into equilibrium, this relaxation is overdamped in smectics by internal structure reorganisation processes. The bubble area reduction of centimetre-sized freely floating bubbles with few nanometres film thickness is recorded with high-speed optical imaging in microgravity and analysed quantitatively. We find a nearly linear reduction of the film area with time, driven by capillary forces and inhibited by smectic layer reorganisations. Characteristic times are in the milliseconds range, with little correlation to the film thickness and bubble size. Instead, the homogeneity of the films and the number and sizes of islands of excess layers that spontaneously form on the films appear to have crucial influence on the dynamics. The efficiency of this process sets the time scale of the film area shrinkage. We discuss the limitations of a minimalistic model that captures smectic layer reorganisation processes.     

Crystal structures and luminescence of two cadmium(II) polymers constructed from aromatic polycarboxylate and bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methane ligands

Two new coordination compounds, {[Cd₂(btrm)(ip)₂(H₂O)₂]?·?2H₂O} _n (1) and {[Cd₂(btrm)(hip)₂(H₂O)₄]?·?3H₂O} _n (2) (btrm?=?bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methane, H₂ip?=?isophthalic acid, H₂hip?=?5-hydroxy isophthalic acid), have been synthesized and structurally characterized. Compound 1 is a 3-D network with CdSO₄ topology. Compound 2 contains 1-D ladder structures, which are interconnected by classical hydrogen-bonding interactions (O–H?···?O) to lead to 3-D supramolecular architectures. Luminescence was performed on 1 and 2, both of which showed strong fluorescent emissions in the solid state at room temperature.

Chemical behavior of ortho-hydroquinone-based bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane ligands in the presence of palladium(II) chloride

The synthesis, structural characterization, and coordination behavior of ditopic ortho-hydroquinone-based bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane ligands (ortho-(OH)₂C₆H₃-4-CHpz₂, ortho-(OH)₂C₆H₃-4-CH(3-Phpz)₂, and ortho-(OH)₂C₆H₃-4-CH(3-tBupz)₂) with pyrazole, 3-phenylpyrazole, and 3-tert-butylpyrazole as donors are described. The reaction of a soluble PdCl₂-source with ortho-(OH)₂C₆H₃-4-CHpz₂ in acetonitrile yielded the related square-planar N,N-coordinated Pd(II) dichloride complex, whereas treatment of ortho-(OH)₂C₆H₃-4-CH(3-Phpz)₂ or ortho-(OH)₂C₆H₃-4-CH(3-tBupz)₂ with PdCl₂ in acetonitrile resulted in degradation of these ligands. The Pd(II) complexes trans-(3-PhpzH)₂PdCl₂ and trans-(3-tBupzH)₂PdCl₂ were isolated and fully characterized including X-ray diffraction analyses.
