ESTIMATION OF ACTIVATED ENERGY OF DESORPTION OF n-HEXANE ON ACTIVATED CARBONS BY TPD TECHNIQUE

1. INTRODUCTION In some cities of China, cancer and breath system diseases caused by the pollution of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have been obviously increasing. The VOCs includes BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene), aldehydes, cresol, phenol, acetic acid, polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which have long-term human health implications. Emission of the VOCs has threatened the health of people seriously [1,2]. The pollution of the VOCs mostly hails from…     

ACTIVATION ENERGY OF DESORPTION OF DIBENZOFURAN ON ACTIVATED CARBONS

1. INTRODUCTION With the development of municipalization in China, more and more cities are challenged by the problem of how to dispose of the dramatically increased municipal waste. Generally, most of municipal solid waste is landfilled or dumped openly in the suburbs. It causes not only land waste, but also serious environment pollution. In order to solve efficiently the environment pollution caused by municipal solid waste, incineration technique was introduced in some big cities such…

A REVIEW OF OXYGEN-CONTAINING SURFACE GROUPS AND SURFACE MODIFICATION OF ACTIVATED CARBON

1. INTRODUCTION Activated carbons (ACs) have been widely used as adsorbents in environmental protection, e.g. removing organic or inorganic pollutants from liquid effluents and voltaic organic compounds (VOCs) from polluted air. It has been well known that the adsorptive capacity of ACs is not only determined by its textural properties (e.g. specific surface area, pore size distribution, pore volume), but also related to its surface chemistry. Many studies have demonstrated that the ad…     

PREPARATION OF ACTIVATED CARBON FIBER AND THEIR XENON ADSORPTION PROPERTIES（Ⅲ）-ADSORPTION ON MODIFIED ACTIVATED CARBON FIBER

Structures of a series of activated carbon fibers were modified by impregnating them withorganic and inorganic materials such as Methylene blue(Mb)、 p-nitrophenol (PNP)、 NaCl or byoxidizing with KMnO4 or HNO3. The influence of pore filling or chemical treatment on their xenonadsorption properties was studied. The experimental results show that Mb and PNP filling ofactivated carbon fibers result in the decrease of xenon adsorption capacities of these treated ACFs,which is due to the decrease of their surface area and micro-pore volume. However, the adsorptioncapacity increases greatly with oxidizing treatment of activated carbon fibers by 7mol/L HNO3.     

KINETICS OF DEPOSITION OF METAL IONS TO ACTIVATED CARBON FIBERS（ACFs)WITH FLUIDIZATION

The diffusion and mass transfer, reaction, integration and growth processes of the metalions on the activated carbon fibers (ACFs) are discussed. Based on the diffusion film theory, thediiffusion and the integration model are developed to describe the deposition processes of metal ionsfrom the solution to ACFs in the fiuidized beds. The model of heat transfer of this process isestablished to expound the important role-played in deposition processes by the influence of thereaction heat released at ACFs surface and the non-uniform temperature distribution caused byhydrodynamics.

PREPARATION OF POLY （LACTIC ACID） THROUGH THIONYL CHLORIDE ACTIVATED POLYCONDENSATION

A two-step process was used to synthesize the high molecular weight poly (lactic acid) using thionyl chloride as an activator for the polycondensation of prepolymer of lactic acid.The products were characterized by GPC,DSC and 1H-NMR.Poly(L-lactic acid)(PLLA) with molecular weight Mw:32875 was obtained when thionyl chloride was used.while low molecular weight PLLA MW:7350 was yielded without thionyl chloride.Effects of the concentration of thionyl chloride,polymerization time and bases on the molecular weight of poly(lactic acid) were investigated.In DSC scans the glass transition temperatures(Tg)of the resulting polymers varied from 25.3 to 57.6℃.and the Tg of poly(L-lactic acid)was higher than that of poly (D,L0lactic acid)(PDLLA).The melting points of poly(L-lactic acid)and poly (D,L-lactic acid) could not be found unless the polymers were obtained by thionyl chloride activator.

THE ACTIVATED CHEMISORPTION OF METHANE ON NICKEL I.THE QUANTUM TUNNELING CALCULATIONS OF STICKING PROBABILITY

The sticking probabilities of the activated chemisorption of CH_4 on Ni(111)surface are calculated by a quantum tunneling model at temperatures be-tween 300K and 4000K.The results show that the sticking probability increasesrapidly with increasing the surface temperature above 600K.The vibrationalenergy of CH_4 can effectively promote the dissociative chemisorption process onthe nickel surface,in which the bond stretch modes are prior to the deformationmodes.     

STUDIES ON SYNTHESIS, STRUCTURE AND REACTIVITY OF ACTIVATED Os_6 RAFT-LIKE CLUSTERS

In this paper we report the synthesis and activation of OS-6 raft-llke planar clusters. The activated OS-66 raft-like clusters [OS-66(CO)_(20)(MeCN)] and [OS-66(CO)_(19) (MeCN)_2] have been prepared by involving PdCl_2 as catalyst. Trimethylamine oxide (Me_3NO) has been used as an activation reagent to oxidize several carbonyl ligands coordinated in the activated clusters and to get a series of activated OS-66 raft-like clusters [OS-66(CO)_(21-x)(MeCN)_x] (n = 1--5) and corresponding substituted clusters [OS-66(CO)_(21-x)(P(OMe)_3)_x] (n=1--5). The structures of these OS-66 raft-like clusters have been characterized by the infrared spectra (IR), nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (NMR) and mass spectra (MS), and the characters of the raft-like planar structure and reactivity above have also been discussed in this paper.

THE ACTIVATED CHEMISORPTION OF METHANE ON NICKEL Ⅱ.DISSOCIATION DYNAMICS OF CH_4 ON Ni(111)SURFACE

A model LEPS potential has been developed to describe the interac-tion of methane molecule with the Ni(111)crystal face.It was found thatthere exists a barrier in the entrance channel for the dissociation process of CH_4on Ni(111).Classical trajectory calculations have been performed to study theactivated chemisorption dynamics.The initial sticking probability(S_0)can beeffectively promoted by the translational energy as well as the vibrational ener-gy.And S_0 increases with increasing the incident angle of CH_4 to the surface.Finally,a direct collisional activation mechanism is suggested for the dissocia-tion of CH_4 on Ni(111).
