Phase Analysis of the Binary System of Cryolite (Na3AlF6) and Sodium Metasilicate (Na2SiO3)

The phase analysis of cryolite (Na₃AlF₆) and sodium metasilicate (Na₂SiO₃) was performed by thermal analysis. The eutectic system with a region of two immiscible substances at a concentration of Na₂SiO₃ between 42.8 and 46.3 mol‐% was identified and the eutectic temperature determined to (886±2) °C. Based on the results of mass‐loss measurements, it was assumed that the introduced Na₂SiO₃ reacts with Na₃AlF₆ due to the formation of some nonvolatile stable compounds. The stable reaction products were identified by X‐ray diffraction analysis and IR spectroscopy of the spontaneously cooled samples, which established the formation of NaF and stable amorphous aluminosilicate compounds.     

Validation of the thermodynamic model of inorganic arsenic in non polluted river waters of the Basque country (Spain)

The thermodynamic model of inorganic arsenic was validated by comparing the predicted As(III) concentration with the experimentally determined one in several river waters samples of the Basque Country (Spain) collected in two sampling campaigns: spring and autumn 2000. This model takes into account the acid-base equilibria of As(III) and As(V) together with the redox equilibria between the H₃AsO₃ and H₃AsO₄ species. A correct prediction of As(III) concentration requires the knowledge of the total concentration of arsenic, pH, redox potential (referred to hydrogen electrode), and ionic strength values of the solution. The estimation of the activity coefficients of the arsenic species was performed by means of the Modified Bromley’s Methodology (MBM).In order to perform the experimental As(III) determination, an analytical method was implemented by using an ion exchange separation of As(III)/As(V) on a continuous FIA-IE-HG-AAS system. The total arsenic concentration was determined together with total concentration of the main alkaline or alkaline-earth metals and anions in the natural waters. Temperature compensated measurements of the pH and redox potentials were made in-situ at the sampling sites.For both seasonal campaigns, the agreement between predicted and experimental As(III) is really high for those samples belonging to non polluted river waters.     

Two-Temperature Transport Coefficients in Argon–Hydrogen Plasmas—I: Elastic Processes and Collision Integrals

The calculation of two-temperature transport coefficients in an argon–hydrogen plasma at atmospheric pressure is performed using a new theory of two-temperature transport properties recently presented. The latter takes into account the coupling between electrons and heavy species, coupling neglected in the already existing theories of Devoto and Bonnefoi. Transport coefficients are calculated at two-temperatures, the kinetic temperature of electrons T_e being different from that of heavy species T_h. This paper is divided into two parts. The first one is related to elastic processes and its aim is to compare the results obtained with this new theory for viscosity , translational thermal conductivities ^tr _e and ^tr _h and electrical conductivity with the previous results of Bonnefoi. The composition is calculated with the modified equilibrium constant of van de Sanden et al. and the most recent interaction potential are discussed. As it could be expected the electron translational thermal conductivity and the electrical conductivity calculated when taking into account or not the coupling between electrons and heavy species show non-negligible discrepancies. Besides this comparison, the results also show the drastic influence of the non-equilibrium parameter =T_e/T_h on the values of , , ^tr _e, and ^tr _h.     

Construction of solid-liquid phase diagrams in ternary systems by titration calorimetry

Titration calorimetry was used to construct the solid-liquid equilibrium line in ternary systems containing the solute and an aqueous mixed solvent by measuring the heat of dissolution of the solid solute during successive additions of the liquid solvent. The plot of cumulated heats versus the mole ratio, n_solvent/n_solute, yields two (almost) linear increases of different slopes. These two lines represent successively the enthalpy of dissolution then the enthalpy of dilution of the medium; their intersection gives the solubility and the enthalpy of dissolution of the solute. Phase diagrams have been established over the whole concentration range for o-anisaldehyde, 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene and vanillin, in water + methanol, +ethanol, or +n-propanol at 303, 313 and 318 K.     

Chemical thermodynamics

The curing of composition containing epoxy bond is complicated chemical and technological process where under temperature and pressure conditions a change of its structure occurs. The structure changes are possible to know by thermal methods as DSC, DTA, etc. and also by measurement of dielectrical response under the low frequency electrical field.     

Thermodynamic and Equilibrium Composition Analysis of Using Iron Oxide as an Oxygen Carrier in Nonflame Combustion Technology

1. Introduction The utilization of fossil fuels causes serious neg- ative impacts on the environment and human life. There are many pollutants such as SOx, NOx and CO2 emission produced from the combustion of coal, oil and natural gas. It has been known for more than 100 years that CO2 is a greenhouse gas and that the release of CO2 from fossil fuel combustion may affect the climate of the earth. In the last years the concern over the aspects of an increased release of greenhouse gases has…

The Equilibrium Structure of Methyl Fluoride

The equilibrium structure of CH₃F has been determined using new sets of accurate rotational constants that have been determined by taking into account all the interactions between the excited vibrational states. This experimental structure is in excellent agreement with the equilibrium geometry calculated at the CCSD(T) level of theory with the cc-pV(5, Q)Z basis set (including corrections for the core correlation and for the effect of diffuse functions on fluorine). Finally, the experimental and ab initio structures have been combined by a least-squares analysis. The results are , and L _e(HCH) = 110.2 (1)°, where the uncertainties shown in parentheses correspond to three standard deviations.
