Removal of phosphate from aqueous solution by zeolite synthesized from fly ash

Fifteen Chinese fly ashes were converted hydrothermally into zeolites, and phosphate immobilization capacity (PIC) of the synthesized zeolites and the corresponding raw fly ashes were determined using an initial phosphate concentration of 1000 mg/L. Results showed that there was a remarkable increase in PIC (from 1.2 to 7.6 times) following the synthesis process. Fractionation of immobilized phosphorus indicated that Fe+Al-P increased most significantly and consistently among all the phosphorus fractions following the conversion of fly ash to zeolite. The PIC and Ca+Mg-P were closely related to Ca content (with r values of 0.9683 and 0.9651, respectively) rather than Mg content (with r values of 0.3920 and 0.3212, respectively). The r values of PIC and Fe+Al-P with Fe content (with r values of 0.4686 and 0.6385, respectively) were higher than those with Al content (with r values of -0.7857 and -0.3770, respectively). Although calcium and iron components were mainly involved in phosphate immobilization, there was no significant change of Ca and Fe content following the conversion of fly ash to zeolite. Increase in dissociated Fe(2)O(3) and specific surface area probably accounted for the enhancement in PIC of synthesized zeolites compared with corresponding fly ashes. The PIC value of zeolites showed a significant correlation with dissociated Fe(2)O(3) (r=0.6186). The specific surface area increased 26.0-89.4 times as a result of the conversion of fly ash to zeolite. The maximum removal of phosphate occurred within different pH ranges for zeolites which were synthesized from high, medium and low calcium fly ashes and this behavior was explained by the reaction of phosphate with calcium and iron components.     

H原子与CO2分子碰撞的化学反应与能量转移

Collisions between hot H atoms and CO2 molecules were studied experimentally by time-resolved Fourier transform infrared emission spectroscopy. H atoms with three translational energies, 174.7, 241.0 and 306.2 kJ/mol respectively, were generated by UV laser photolysis to initiate a chemical reaction of H+CO2!OH+CO. Vibrationally excited CO (v≤2) was observed in the spectrum, where CO was the product of the reaction. The highly efficient T-V energy transfer from the hot H atoms to the CO2 was verified too. The highest vibrational level of v=4 in CO2 (v≤3) was found. Rate ratio of the chemical reaction to the energy transfer was estimated as 10.     

Theoretical computation of low‐lying electronic states of HCNS: A CASPT2 study

Complete active space self‐consistent field (CASSCF) and complete active space second‐order perturbation theory (CASPT2) calculations in conjunction with the aug‐cc‐pVTZ basis set have been used to investigate the low‐lying electronic states of thiofulminic acid (HCNS), HCNS⁺, and HCNS^?. The result of geometry optimization using CASPT2/aug‐cc‐pVTZ shows that theoretically determined geometric parameters and harmonic vibrational frequencies for the HCNS ground state X¹Σ⁺(X¹A′) are in agreement with previous studies. The ionization energies, the electron affinity energies, the adiabatic excitation energies, and vertical excitation energies have been calculated and the corresponding cation and anion states are identified. By calculating adiabatic electron affinity, the states of HCNS^? have been identified to contain both π orbital states (X²A′ and 1²A″) and dipole‐bond states (1⁴A′ and 1⁴A″). © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

La15Fe77B8型储氢合金的结构和电化学性能

研究了快淬和退火态La15Fe77B8型储氢合金的组织结构和电化学性能。应用中频感应熔炼-快淬方法制备了La15Fe77B8型储氢合金,其组成为La15Fe2Ni72Mn7B2Al2。结构分析表明:快淬La15Fe2Ni72Mn7B2Al2合金为多相结构,包括LaNi5相、La3Ni13B2相和(Fe,Ni)相,快淬合金经1223 K保温3 h,然后在873 K保温3 h退火处理后,LaNi5相增加,La3Ni13B2相几乎消失,(Fe,Ni)相增加且形态变大。电化学测试表明,退火合金的最大容量(307 mAh.g-1)略小于快淬合金(309 mAh.g-1),而循环稳定性有所改善。退火合金电极的倍率放电能力(HRD)低于快淬合金,原因在于交换电流密度(I0)及氢在合金中的扩散系数(D)降低。快淬和退火合金电极在低温233 K时均能放出55%的容量。

Aphanalides A–H,ring A-seco limonoids from the fruits of Aphanamixis polystachya

Eight new ring A-seco limonoids, aphanalides A–H (1–8) were isolated from the fruits of Aphanamixis polystachya. Aphanalides A–C (1–3) are the first examples of ring A-seco limonoids with an unusual oxetane ring between C-7 and C-14. The structures of aphanalide A (1) and aphanalide C (3) were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray studies. Their structures including absolute stereochemistry were established on the basis of extensive NMR spectroscopic analysis, by comparison of experimental and calculated electron circular dichroism (ECD) and by X-ray diffraction, representing the first report of assignment of absolute configuration of such type ring A-seco limonoids. The biogenetic origin of aphanalides A–D (1–4) from aphanalides E–H (5–8) was also postulated.

Preparative isolation and purification of coumarins from Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn by high-speed counter-current chromatography

A preparative high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) method for isolation and purification of coumarins from Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn (Baihuaqianhu in Chinese) was successfully established by using light petroleum-ethyl acetate-methanol-water as the two-phase solvent system in gradient elution mode. The upper phase of light petroleum-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (5:5:5:5, v/v) was used as the stationary phase of HSCCC. The mobile phase used in HSCCC was the lower phase of light petroleum-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (5:5:5:5, v/v) and light petroleum-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (5:5:6.5:3.5, v/v) that was changed in gradient. Four kinds of coumarins and another unknown compound were obtained and yielded 5.3 mg of qianhucoumarin D, 7.7 mg of Pd-Ib, 35.8 mg of (+)-praeruptorin A, 31.9 mg of (+)-praeruptorin B and 6.4 mg of unknown compound with the purity of 98.6%, 92.8%, 99.5%, 99.4% and 99.8% in one-step separation, respectively. The structures of the coumarins were identified by 1H NMR and 13C NMR.
