Vapor pressure,speciation, and chemical activities in highly concentrated sodium borate solutions at 277 and 317°C

The system H₂O-B₂O₃-Na₂O has been studied experimentally at 277 and 317°C. The activities of water and boric acid have been determined at mole ratios Na/B from 0 to 1.5, and total dissolved solids 3 to 80 weight percent. The activity of boric acid has been fitted to within experimental error using a speciation model with eight complex species. This model is consistent with the model previously published by Mesmer et al. The electrolyte properties of the liquid are modeled using the Pitzer-Simonson model of very concentrated electrolyte solutions. The calculated values of water activity agree with experiment, and the activity of NaOH and pOH have also been calculated. The potassium borate system also was briefly studied at 317°C, and is adequately described by a model with five complex species. The potassium borate liquid is more alkaline at K/B= 1 than a sodium borate liquid at the same mole ratio, but pOH in the two systems is the same at lower mole ratios.     

Effect of the composition of nickel-containing composites based on stabilised zirconia on catalytic activity in methane steam conversion

A study was carried out on the composition and nature of the stabilizing additive on the activity of nickel-containing composites based on zirconia in the methane steam conversion. The methane conversions were 91–99% on Ni/ZrO₂(Y, Sc, Ce) at 700–800 °C.     

Strategies to enhance the enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated softwood with high residual lignin content

Pretreatment of Douglas-fir by steam explosion produces a substrate containing approx 43% lignin. Two strategies were investigated for reducing the effect of this residual lignin on enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose: mild alkali extraction and protein addition. Extraction with cold 1% NaOH reduced the lignin content by only approx 7%, but cellulose to glucose conversion was enhanced by about 30%. Before alkali extraction, addition of exogenous protein resulted in a significant improvement in cellulose hydrolysis, but this protein effect was substantially diminished after alkali treatment. Lignin appears to reduce cellulose hydrolysis by two distinct mechanisms: by forming a physical barrier that prevents enzyme access and by non-productively binding cellulolytic enzymes. Cold alkali appears to selectively remove a fraction of lignin from steam-exploded Douglas-fir with high affinity for protein. Corresponding data for mixed softwood pretreated by organosolv extraction indicates that the relative importance of the two mechanisms by which residual lignin affects hydrolysis is different according to the pre- and post-treatment method used.     

Gas chromatographic determination of residual hydrazine and morpholine in boiler feed water and steam condensates

Summary Hydrazine, an oxygen scavenger in boiler water, was derivatised to the corresponding acetone azine and determined at the ng ml^–1 level by gas chromatography. Morpholine, a corrosion inhibitor used in steam boilers, was estimated either directly (if >2.0 g ml^–1) or by quantitative preconcentration (0.1 ng – 2.0 g ml^–1). To obtain symmetrical peaks for these amines, the column packing was coated with KOH. Use of a nitrogen-specific detector improved accuracy of estimation of hydrazine and morpholine, giving a RSD of 1.9–3.6%. Chromatographic analysis of these amines in boiler feed water and steam condensate samples collected from boilers servicing a petroleum refinery is described. Environmental safety regulations calls for monitoring of hydrazine and the methods developed can easily be adapted for this purpose.     

Simultaneous distillation-extraction and dynamic headspace methods in the gas chromatographic analysis of Parmesan cheese volatiles

Summary Dynamic headspace and simultaneous steam distillation-extraction techniques were used to isolate volatile components of Parmesan cheese. Identification of the substances was carried out by GC and GC-MS; 110 compounds were identified in the samples obtained using the headspace technique, 105 in the extracts; among them, about 50 compounds were isolated with both procedures. Mass spectral data showed evidence for a number of newly reported compounds such as 3-(methylthio)propanal, -tetradecalactone, 9-tetra-decenoic and 9-hexadecenoic acids. Mass spectra of some compounds are discussed and a comparison between the results obtained with the two sampling methods is given.     

稀土添加剂对烃类水蒸汽重整镍催化剂性能的影响——水蒸汽吸附的TPD研究

用程序升温脱附技术,研究了添加稀土的烃类水蒸汽重整催化剂(Ni/α-Al_2O_3)对水蒸汽的吸附性能,同未加稀土的镍催化剂作了对比。结果表明,加有稀土的镍催化剂对水蒸汽的吸附能力主要是稀土的贡献。还原态催化剂对水蒸汽的吸附量比相应的氧化态多1.4倍。发现催化剂对水蒸汽的吸附能力不仅取决于浸渍方式,而且同稀土含量有关。当稀土含量较多时,催化剂表面上呈现出三个能量不同的吸附位。稀土含量少于1.3%时。对提高催化剂吸附水蒸汽的能力已作用不大。含稀土的镍催化剂吸附水蒸汽的能力大,正是其抗结炭性能耐硫性能好的原因。     

CuZnAl水滑石衍生催化剂上甲醇水蒸气重整制氢Ⅲ.合成水滑石用金属盐的影响

采用共沉淀法,用不同金属盐为Cu源和Zn源合成了一系列CuZnAl水滑石,以此为前体经600℃焙烧后制得相应催化剂.用硝酸盐和醋酸盐合成的水滑石结晶度高,其衍生催化剂比表面积大、Cu的分散性好且易于还原;而用硫酸盐和盐酸盐合成的水滑石结晶度差,其衍生催化剂比表面积小、Cu的分散性差且不易还原.反应评价结果显示,用硝酸盐和醋酸盐制得的催化剂活性高、反应稳定性好;而用硫酸盐和盐酸盐制得的催化剂由于低的Cu表面积以及S和Cl的毒化作用而几乎无催化活性.在醋酸盐制备的催化剂上,产物干气中CO的浓度明显较低,在250℃和WHSV=3.28 h-1的条件下约为0.03%~0.04%,仅为硝酸盐所制催化剂上CO浓度的1/5;在210℃和WHSV=0.5 h-1的条件下,该催化剂上甲醇几乎完全转化,同时CO浓度降至约0.005%.N2O滴定、CO2程序升温脱附和程序升温还原结果显示,用醋酸盐和硝酸盐制备的催化剂具有极相近的Cu表面积和表面碱性,但前者CuO的还原峰温较后者低近70℃,归因于ZnO与CuO间的强相互作用,这是催化剂具有良好选择性的可能原因.     

Ni-Cu双金属催化剂上乙醇水蒸气重整制氢研究—制备方法对催化性能的影响

我们采用分步浸渍法和共浸渍法制备了一系列的Ni-Cu/mSiO₂催化剂.运用XRD、N₂吸附-脱附、H₂-TPR、SEM、TG-DTG等表征手段对催化剂反应前后的物理化学性质进行分析,催化剂对乙醇水蒸气重整（ESR）反应的催化性能通过常压固定床反应器进行评价.结果表明：催化剂的催化性能与载体上的活性组分分散有关,而活性金属的分散性与制备方法有关.共浸渍法制备的催化剂Ni₁₄-Cu/mSiO₂活性组分分散度较高,抗积碳能力与稳定性更好.在质量空速为2.7 h^-1,水醇摩尔比为9,反应温度为550℃的条件下进行稳定性测试,催化剂Ni₁₄-Cu/mSiO₂测试25 h没有出现失活现象,乙醇转化率保持在100%,H₂的选择性保持在70%以上,反应后的积碳含量仅为5.52%.
