Crystal Structures and Electrochemical Properties of R1.5Ca1.5MgNi14(R=Nd,Gd and Er)Hydrogen Storage Alloys

Ca₃MgNi₁₄, Nd_1.5Ca_1.5MgNi₁₄, Gd_1.5Ca_1.5MgNi₁₄ and Er_1.5Ca_1.5MgNi₁₄ alloys were prepared by high frequency induction melting and sintering. Characterization and analysis were performed by X-ray diffraction/Rietveld full-spectrum fitting, gaseous P-C-T hydrogen storage test and electrochemical properties tests. It can be found that all alloys consist of Gd₂Co₇-type 3R phase and Ce₂Ni₇-type 2H phase. Although the hydrogen storage capacities of Nd_1.5Ca_1.5MgNi₁₄, Gd_1.5Ca_1.5MgNi₁₄ and Er_1.5Ca_1.5MgNi₁₄ decrease to some extent compared to that of Ca₃MgNi₁₄, their equilibrium pressures for absorption and desorption increase markedly. Moreover, R_1.5Ca_1.5MgNi₁₄ alloys have better cycling stabilities and high-rate discharge(HRD) properties as compared to Ca₃MgNi₁₄. The hydrogen diffusion in alloy electrodes is the main factor to influence the HRD performance.     

也论化学元素周期表的形成和发展

In the time order, the author proposes that the discovery and development of the periodic table of chemical elements are divided into four stages:point→1D→2D→3D. This article cites the main historical facts and documents available to unscramble the above four stages, which will facilitate the teaching and scientific research of the periodic table.     

Economics of food irradiation

The number of products being radiation processed worldwide is constantly increasing and today includes such diverse items as medical disposables, fruits and vegetables, spices, meats, seafoods and waste products. This range of products to be processed has resulted in a wide range of irradiator designs and capital and operating cost requirements.This paper discusses the economics of low dose food irradiation applications and the effects of various parameters on unit processing costs. It provides a model for calculating specific unit processing costs by correlating known capital costs with annual operating costs and annual throughputs. It is intended to provide the reader with a general knowledge of how unit processing costs are derived.

An Isolable Radical Anion Featuring a 2-Center-3-Electron π-Bond without a Clearly Defined σ-Bond

Featuring an extra electron in the π* antibonding orbital, species with a 2-center-3-electron (2c3e) π bond without an underlying σ bond are scarcely known. Herein, we report the synthesis, isolation and characterization of a radical anion salt [K(18-C-6)]⁺{[(HCNDipp)₂Si]₂P₂}⋅⁻ (i.e. [K(18-C-6)]⁺ 3 ⋅⁻) (18-C-6=18-crown-6, Dipp=2,6-diisopropylphenyl), in which 3 ⋅⁻ features a perfectly planar Si₂P₂ four-membered ring. This species represents the first example of a Si- and P-containing analog of a bicyclo[1.1.0]butane radical anion. The unusual bonding motif of 3 ⋅⁻ was thoroughly investigated via X-ray diffraction crystallography, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR), and calculations by density functional theory (DFT), which collectively unveiled the existence of a 2c3e π bond between the bridgehead P atoms and no clearly defined supporting P−P σ bond.     

河南麦区收割对大气颗粒物及其组分特征排放的影响

农业收割期间排放的颗粒物是农忙期影响大气气溶胶组成的主要来源,因此明确农业收割期间排放的大气颗粒物排放特征具有重要意义。本实验立足河南省新乡市集约化农田实验基地,开展冬小麦区农业收割期间的大气颗粒物及其组分排放特征实验。结果表明收割期间的PMcoarse比其它时期高8.20%,农业站点收割时期的PMcoarse比其它时期高了72.22%,明确了其颗粒物污染特征为仅PM₁₀升高,而非PM₁₀和PM_2.5同时升高,同时PM₁₀的升高非PM_2.5升高引起的;含量最高的前5种元素是Al、Ca、Fe、K、Mg;收割期间,Fe的特征比值最高为0.79;Ca₂₊^和K₊^{离子百分含量在}PMcoarse中占比最高;特征值为0.81和0.78。综合水溶性离子和元素结果,Ca₂₊^、K₊^、Fe浓度协同变化可作为小麦收割过程颗粒物对大气污染影响的指纹识别,以区别于其他污染类型;便于大气污染防治行政主管部门有针对性的查污、防污、治污,提高人民群众生活环境的空气质量。

CFD simulation of oil–water separation characteristics in a compact flotation unit by population balance modeling

Huge amounts of produced water are generated in offshore oil production. The Compact Flotation Unit (CFU) is an excellent pretreatment technology of produced water with high separation efficiency, low residence, and small split ratio. The Computational Fluid Dynamics-population balance model (CFD-PBM) method is used in the present work to study the oil–water separation characteristics in the self-developed Beijing Institute of Petrochemical Technology Compact Flotation Unit (BIPTCFU) at both micro-scale and macro-scale, which would help us gain more insights into the mechanism and the influence of flow field on the oil–water separation process such as the oil droplets’ diameter distribution and separation efficiency. The effects of the inlet diameter, the height of the preliminary separation zone, and the width of the annular space on the oil–water separation characteristics of CFU were discussed systematically. It is illustrated that the appropriate increase of inlet velocity, decrease of annular gap width, and increase of the height in the preliminary separation zone can effectively promote the collision and coalescence process of oil droplets. However, the overlarge height of the preliminary separation zone and the too narrow width of the annular space will both have a significant negative effect on the migration and separation of oil and water and lead to the decrease of separation efficiency.
