生物质裂解产物的制备及HPLC检测其成分的虚拟仿真实验开发

In order to improve university laboratory teaching and practical education under the background of information technology, as well as overcome the difficulty for practical training, develop a virtual simulation experiment platform for rapid pyrolysis of natal materials and high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) detection of its components. The experiment integrates the actual operation process of the plant to produce cleaved products by rapid pyrolysis of biomass with HPLC detection. The virtual experiment is divided into biomass sample pretreatment, rapid biomass pyrolysis, bio-oil extraction, and HPLC determination of complex components, making the biomass cleavage workshop "real" through simulation. This virtual simulation experiment fully integrates the utilization of biomass resources and basic chemistry courses (such as organic chemistry, instrumental analysis, chemical engineering principles, etc.), which are widely involved in agricultural and forestry majors with advantageous characteristics value.     

Estimation of parameters characterizing the adsorption of sodium,potassium, and rubidium cryptates at the mercury electrode/solution interface

The adsorption of complexes formed by sodium, potassium, and rubidium cations with macrobicyclic ligand (kryptofix 222 with C₁₈H₃₆N₂O₆ composition) is studied as a function of the ligand concentration on a stationary mercury drop in 0.1 M solutions of corresponding sulfates and chlorides by using the differential capacitance technique. Based on the model of two parallel capacitors supplemented by the Frumkin isotherm, the adsorption parameters of studied cryptates are estimated by using the regression analysis technique. Differential capacitance curves calculated with the parameters found are compared with experimental data. The comparison of the found adsorption parameters makes it possible to reveal the effects of the nature of included cations and specifically adsorbed supporting-electrolyte anions on the adsorption behavior of cryptates under study.__________Translated from Elektrokhimiya, Vol. 41, No. 4, 2005, pp. 475–481.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Stenina, Sviridova.     

Structure and hydration of polycytidylic acid from the data of infrared spectroscopy, EHF dielectrometry and computer modeling

The aim of this paper is to summarize the original results concerned with the elucidation of the role of water environment in the formation of different structures of polyribocytidylic acid (poly(rC)), depending on the pH, temperature and ion content. To solve this problem, we studied the hydration of poly(rC)-K⁺ in films differing in water content, by methods of infrared spectroscopy and piezogravimetry, and in solution, using the dielectric measurements at a wavelength of 7.6 mm (extremely high frequencies — EHF). The experimental results were confirmed by a Monte Carlo simulation of the interaction between water molecules and single-strand and double-strand poly(rC) fragments in clusters of 800 water molecules. A model of hydration of double-strand complex of poly(rC)⁺-poly(rC) has been proposed based on our results and the known X-ray parameters of the complex. The obtained results and proposed structure of poly(rC)⁺-poly(rC) suggest that, the stabilization of this complex occurs due to intra- and inter-chain water bridges, together with the hydrogen bonds between neutral and protonated cytosines in pairs.     

Monte‐Carlo simulation of spatial distribution of characteristic x‐rays in multi‐film targets: source size of Al Kα x‐rays in W/Al film targets

A Monte‐Carlo simulation approach has been applied to describe the spatial distribution of characteristic x‐rays in W/Al film targets of different combinations of film thicknesses for the optimal design of a small‐sized x‐ray source having a high x‐ray intensity. The result has led to optimal combinations of W and Al film targets for 100 kV electrons, e.g. W(1 µm)/Al(20 µm), W(3 µm)/Al(15 µm) and W(5 µm)/Al(8 µm). These Al/W targets could be used as x‐ray sources for a medical instrument currently under development. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Numerical analysis of the behavior of hydrogen added into a free-burning arc

The objective of the present work is to investigate the behavior of hydrogen in an atmospheric-pressure free-burning argon are when a small amount of hydrogen is added into the arc. A two-dimensional model calculation is carried out under the assumption that the ionization reaction of argon is in equilibrium and the reactions among hydrogen molecules, atoms, ions, and electrons are not necessarily in equilibrium. This calculation gives the following conclusion. The hydrogen mass fraction of 0.001 is too small to affect the flow and temperature fields markedly, and the concentration ratios among the hydrogen species are in equilibrium in the greater part of the arc region except for same parts with a steep temperature gradient. The hydrogen mass Junction, however, is not uniform in the me and, especially in the high-temperature region near the cathodes, over three dynes mass fraction of the hydrogen accumulates and flows downstream to cause a high flux of hydrogen atom toward the anode. This phenomena can be explained by the large difference between the diffusivity of hydrogen atom and that of hydrogen ion in argon ion.     

DFT study and Monte Carlo simulation on proton transfers of 2-amino-2-oxazoline, 2-amino-2-thiazoline, and 2-amino-2-imidazoline in the gas phase and in water

Density functional theory (DFT) and Monte Carlo (MC) simulation with free energy perturbation (FEP) techniques have been used to study the tautomeric proton transfer reaction of 2-amino-2-oxazoline, 2-amino-2-thiazoline, and 2-amino-2-imidazoline in the gas phase and in water. Two reaction pathways were considered: the direct and water-assisted transfers. The optimized structures and thermodynamic properties of stationary points for the title reaction system in the gas phase were calculated at the B3LYP/6-311+G(d, p) level of theory. The potential energy profiles along the minimum energy path in the gas phase and in water were obtained. The study of the solvent effect of water on the proton transfer of 2-amino-2-oxozoline, 2-amino-2-thiazoline, and 2-amino-2-imidazoline indicates that water as a solvent is favorable for the water-assisted process and slows down the rate of the direct transfer pathway.     

Simulation of a Combined Isomerization Reactor & Pressure Swing Adsorption Unit

The Total Isomerization Process developed by Union Carbide in 1970 (Gary, 1987) for the conversion of normal paraffin's to their isomers consists of a reactor followed by a PSA unit each operating at similar pressures and temperatures. The combination of these two operations in one unit in a Pressure Swing Adsorption Reactor (PSAR) process may provide an increased throughput and a significant cost saving in ancillary equipment.The simulation of a mathematical model linking the catalyst packed-bed and the adsorbent packed-bed is reported. The catalyst is a Pd/Y-zeolite and the adsorbent is 5A zeolite. The simulated feed consists of 17% each of n- and isopentane with the remainder being hydrogen. The mathematical model assumes dispersed plug-flow in both sections, constant velocity in the reactor section but varying in the adsorber, with mass transfer in the adsorber section due to external fluid film resistance and macropore diffusion in series. The fraction of the total column length occupied by the catalyst (denoted by ) is accounted for in the model by solving numerically using orthogonal collocation on finite elements. Parameters varied are the ratio of catalyst/column length (), temperature range (506–533 K), high pressure (15–20 bars), with the low pressure held constant at 2 bars. The catalyst/column ratio has a strong effect at low temperatures. The optimum catalyst/column length ratio appears to be controlled by the low pressure step and occurs at = 0.7 for the assumptions used in this work.
