An overview of sample preparation and extraction of synthetic pyrethroids from water,sediment and soil

The latest developments in sample preparation and extraction of synthetic pyrethroids from environmental matrices viz., water, sediment and soil were reviewed. Though the synthetic pyrethroids were launched in 1970s, to the best of authors’ knowledge there was no review on this subject until date. The present status and recent advances made during the last 10 years in sample preparation including conservation and extraction techniques used in determination of synthetic pyrethroids in water, sediment and soil were discussed. Pre- and post-extraction treatments, sample stability during extraction and its influence upon the whole process of analytical determination were covered. Relative merits and demerits including the green aspects of extraction were evaluated. The current trends and future prospects were also addressed.     

Copper(II) oxide solubility behavior in aqueous sodium phosphate solutions at elevated temperatures

A platinum-lined, flowing autoclave facility is used to investigate the solubility behavior of copper(II) oxide (CuO) in aqueous sodium phosphate solutions at temperatures between 19 and 262°C. Copper solubilities are observed to increase continuously with temperature and phosphate concentration. The measured solubility behavior is examined via a Cu(II) ion hydrolysis/complexing model and thermodynamic functions for the hydrolysis/complexing reactions are obtained from a leastsquares analysis of the data. Altogether, thermochemical properties are established for five anionic complexes: Cu(OH) ₃ ^– , Cu(OH) ₄ ^2– , Cu(OH) ₂ (HPO ₄ ) ^2– , Cu(OH) ₃ (H ₂ PO ₄ ) ^2– , and Cu(OH) ₂ (PO ₄ ) ^3– . Precise thermochemical parameters are also derived for the Cu(OH)⁺ hydroxocomplex based on CuO solubility behavior previously observed (Ref. 3) for pure water at elevated temperatures. The relative ease of Cu(II) ion hydrolysis is such that Cu(OH) ₃ ^– species become the preferred hydroxocomplex for pH9.4.Prepared for presentation at the Fourth International Symposium on solubility Phenomena, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, August 1990.

离心机和密闭加压容器中水下爆炸相似关系

水下爆炸冲击波和气泡脉动的共同作用不能仅依据几何相似条件进行模型试验,相关的尺寸缩比模型试验可以借助密闭加压罐或离心机进行。通过量纲分析和π定理对模型试验的相似理论进行了推导,分别探讨了密闭加压容器和离心机中水下爆炸的相似关系及其适用范围,并对原型工况和尺寸缩比为1/20和1/30的模型工况基于LS-DYNA进行了数值模拟。结果表明:加压模型试验中水下爆炸冲击波、气泡脉动半径和周期可以满足相似关系,但是气泡迁移和射流不符合相似关系;离心模型试验中水下爆炸冲击波和气泡脉动基本完全相似。     

Cobalt(II) Oxide Solubility and Phase Stability in Alkaline Media at Elevated Temperatures

A platinum-lined, flowing autoclave facility was used to investigate the solubility behavior of cobalt(II) oxide (CoO) in deoxygenated ammonium and sodium hydroxide solutions between 22 and 288°C. Co(II) ion activity in aqueous solution was controlled by a hydrous Co(II) oxide when nitrogen was used for deoxygenation and by metallic cobalt when hydrogen was used. Measured cobalt solubilities are interpreted using a Co(II) ion hydroxo- and amminocomplexing model and thermodynamic functions for these equilibria were obtained from a least-squares analysis of the data. A common set of thermodynamic properties for the species Co(OH)⁺, Co(OH)₂(aq) and Co(OH)(NH₃)⁺ is provided to permit accurate cobalt oxide solubility calculations over broad ranges of temperature and alkalinity.     

Acid-Catalyzed Liquefaction of Biomasses from Poplar Clones for Short Rotation Coppice Cultivations

Liquefaction of biomass delivers a liquid bio-oil with relevant chemical and energetic applications. In this study we coupled it with short rotation coppice (SRC) intensively managed poplar cultivations aimed at biomass production while safeguarding environmental principles of soil quality and biodiversity. We carried out acid-catalyzed liquefaction, at 160 °C and atmospheric pressure, with eight poplar clones from SRC cultivations. The bio-oil yields were high, ranging between 70.7 and 81.5%. Average gains of bio-oil, by comparison of raw biomasses, in elementary carbon and hydrogen and high heating, were 25.6, 67, and 74%, respectively. Loss of oxygen and O/C ratios averaged 38 and 51%, respectively. Amounts of elementary carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen in bio-oil were 65, 26, and 8.7%, and HHV averaged 30.5 MJkg⁻¹. Correlation analysis showed the interrelation between elementary carbon with HHV in bio-oil or with oxygen loss. Overall, from 55 correlations, 21 significant and high correlations among a set of 11 variables were found. Among the most relevant ones, the percentage of elementary carbon presented five significant correlations with the percentage of O (−0.980), percentage of C gain (0.902), percentage of O loss (0.973), HHV gain (0.917), and O/C loss (0.943). The amount of carbon is directly correlated with the amount of oxygen, conversely, the decrease in oxygen content increases the elementary carbon and hydrogen concentration, which leads to an improvement in HHV. HHV gain showed a strong positive dependence on the percentage of C (0.917) and percentage of C gain (0.943), while the elementary oxygen (−0.885) and its percentage of O loss (0.978) adversely affect the HHV gain. Consequently, the O/C loss (0.970) increases the HHV positively. van Krevelen’s analysis indicated that bio-oils are chemically compatible with liquid fossil fuels. FTIR-ATR evidenced the presence of derivatives of depolymerization of lignin and cellulose in raw biomasses in bio-oil. TGA/DTG confirmed the bio-oil burning aptitude by the high average 53% mass loss of volatiles associated with lowered peaking decomposition temperatures by 100 °C than raw biomasses. Overall, this research shows the potential of bio-oil from liquefaction of SRC biomasses for the contribution of renewable energy and chemical deliverables, and thereby, to a greener global economy.

加压富氧燃烧模式下SOx/NOx强耦合促进SO3形成的机理研究

加压富氧煤粉燃烧技术由于净发电效率高被认为是最有可能得到应用的燃煤CO2控制技术之一,但受燃烧压力影响,烟气中的酸性气体(SOx/NOx)分压显著提高,导致腐蚀风险加剧,而目前对该问题相关的基础研究很少。本文利用详细反应机理(72组分,428反应),基于实验数据对照,揭示了加压富氧模式下SOx/NOx强耦合促进SO3和NO2形成的协同效应。动力学机理计算结果表明:SOx/NOx的交互作用可促进SO2和NO向SO3和NO2的转化,并且该促进效应在一定的温度和加压条件下十分显著。基于反应路径和敏感性分析,本文最终发展了一个能用于准确预测加压富氧燃烧模式下SO3和NO2在后火焰区形成特性的9步骨架反应机理。
