煤与生物质混烧灰荷电特性研究

对玉米秸分别与两种煤以不同比例混烧生成的混烧灰进行了荷电特性研究。利用法拉第杯荷电量检测系统和静电低压撞击器(ELPI)测量了混烧灰的总体荷质比及分级荷质比,并借助于成分分析及形貌分析结果讨论了其影响机理。结果表明,随着生物质掺入量在混烧燃料中的增加,混烧灰的成分组成发生变化,使得其介电常数变大,比电阻增大,表面吸附能力增强,从而使混烧灰的总体荷质比有一定的上升趋势。对混烧灰的分级荷质比测量结果表明,排除灰样粒径的影响,生物质的掺入使得混烧灰的荷电能力得以增强,但影响相对较小,颗粒粒径是影响混烧灰荷电能力的主要因素。

Carbon nanospheres with well‐controlled nano‐morphologies as support for palladium‐catalyzed Suzuki coupling reaction

Uniform carbon nanospheres (UCS) with well‐controlled nano‐morphologies were fabricated by hydrothermal carbonization of sucrose in the presence of kayexalate. Highly dispersed and ultrafine palladium nanoparticles were supported on the UCS through a facile co‐reduction process with NaBH₄ as reducing agent. The obtained Pd@UCS exhibited efficient catalytic activity for the Suzuki coupling reaction. Moreover, the as‐prepared catalyst could be recycled and reused at least five times without significant loss of its catalytic activity.     

Controlled water flooding of polymer electrolyte fuel cells applying superhydrophobic gas diffusion layer

Water transport is critical to the successful implementation of polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFC), especially in long-term and dynamic operation in automotives. Liquid water appears in the fuel cells not only from the water generated at the cathode catalyst layer but also as a result of condensation of water vapor from the humidified gases. In this study, we report a simple approach to prepare a superhydrophobic gas diffusion layer by chemical vapor deposition of polydimethylsiloxane without significant change in pore size of gas diffusion layer unlike other approach adding hydrophobic agent such as polytetrafluoroethylene. A superhydrophobic coating on the GDL can be obtained, leading to exceptionally enhanced power performance and stability of PEFC especially at a high current where water transport becomes more critical.     

A lattice Boltzmann model for diffusion of binary gas mixtures that includes diffusion slip

This paper describes the development of a lattice Boltzmann (LB) model for a binary gas mixture, and applications to channel flow driven by a density gradient with diffusion slip occurring at the wall. LB methods for single component gases typically use a non‐physical equation of state in which the relationship between pressure and density varies according to the scaling used. This is fundamentally unsuitable for extension to multi‐component systems containing gases of differing molecular masses. Substantial variations in the species densities and pressures may exist even at low Mach numbers; hence, the usual linearized equation of state for small fluctuations is unsuitable. Also, existing methods for implementing boundary conditions do not extend easily to novel boundary conditions, such as diffusion slip. The new model developed for multi‐component gases avoids the pitfalls of some other LB models. A single computational grid is shared by all the species, and the diffusivity is independent of the viscosity. The Navier–Stokes equation for the mixture and the Stefan–Maxwell diffusion equation are both recovered by the model. Diffusion slip, the non‐zero velocity of a gas mixture at a wall parallel to a concentration gradient, is successfully modelled and validated against a simple one‐dimensional model for channel flow. To increase the accuracy of the scheme, a second‐order numerical implementation is needed. This may be achieved using a variable transformation method that does not increase the computational time. Simulations were carried out on hydrogen and water diffusion through a narrow channel for varying total pressure and concentration gradients. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

美汉草（Meehania fargesii Levl）生物量分配分析

调查阔叶红松林林下早春开花植物美汉草(Meehania fargesii Levl)各个器官生物量分配变化情况.结果表明:在整个生长季节中,美汉草各器官生物量总体上呈现先增加后减少的趋势,5月初~7月初,根生长速率先快后慢,茎叶生长速率先慢后快,7月中旬以后各器官生物量逐渐减少;美汉草有性生殖的生殖分配占总生物量的比例较小(4%~6%);根冠比在5~6月不断上升,6~7月迅速下降,7月以后保持稳定;根和茎叶生物量分别与总生物量呈显著的线性正相关关系.分析显示:为了适应阔叶红松林林下的光照变化,在林分郁闭前,能量主要分配给地下部分;林分郁闭后,茎叶生长占主导.美汉草主要以营养繁殖为主,第2年的地下根状茎来自第1年地上茎的繁殖方式及生物量分配策略,可能是美汉草成为林下优势草本的重要原因.     

生物质与烟煤混合灰熔融特性影响因素的研究

为探究气氛、混合比及残炭含量对生物质与煤混合灰熔融特性的影响,将松木屑灰与乌海烟煤灰按不同质量比混合,采用智能灰熔点仪测定各混合灰样在不同气氛下的灰熔融温度,X射线衍射仪从矿物质演变角度分析混合灰熔融温度变化的原因。结果表明,由于铁尖晶石和铁橄榄石的生成,使混合灰的熔融温度在弱还原性气氛下比氧化性气氛下低,且差值的大小与混合灰中Fe含量有关;随松木屑灰含量的增加,钙铝黄长石、镁黄长石、白榴石等低温共熔物的生成量增加,使混合灰的熔融温度降低;此外,由于Fe-C共熔体(Fe_xC_y)的生成、灰锥局部还原性气氛及残炭的"骨架"作用,使混合灰的熔融温度随煤灰中残炭含量的增加呈现先升高后降低再升高的趋势。     

Polyelectrolyte Nanocomposite Membranes Using Imidazole-Functionalized Nanosilica for Fuel Cell Applications

The preparation and characterization of a new type of nanocomposite polyelectrolyte membrane, based on DuPont Nafion/imidazole-modified nanosilica (Im-Si), for direct methanol fuel cell applications is described. Related to the interactions between the protonated imidazole groups, grafted on the surface of nanosilica, and negatively charged sulfonic acid groups of Nafion, new electrostatic interactions can be formed in the interface of Nafion and Im-Si which result in both lower methanol permeability and also higher proton conductivity. Physical characteristics of these manufactured nanocomposite membranes were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetry analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, water uptake, methanol permeability, and ion-exchange capacity, as well as proton conductivity. The Nafion/Im-Si membranes showed higher proton conductivity, lower methanol permeability and, as a consequence, higher selectivity parameter in comparison to the neat Nafion or Nafion/silica membranes. The obtained results indicated that the Nafion/Im-Si membranes could be utilized as promising polyelectrolyte membranes for direct methanol fuel cell applications.     

Phosphorus and Energy Recovery from Manure and Digestion Residues

Abstract

Human and animal excrements, in particular manure, stand for a significant and undisputable source of plant nutrients and renewable energy. In Europe, only 36% of P-inputs to soils originate from primary resources (rock phosphate) whereas 63% come from animal and human excretions applied to cropland as manure, digestion residues and sewage sludge. Simultaneously these waste flows represent a potential hazard to human health and aquatic bodies because of pathogens and eutrophication. Management of these waste flows is far from being sustainable, in part due to the lack of efficient processing technologies. A cooperative InnoEnergy—EIT financed KIC Knowledge and Innovation Community—research project pursues development and demonstration of highly efficient technologies to overcome the constraints and to yield renewable phosphate fertilizers and energy from waste flows that may have a combined technical energy potential of 3,600 PJ/year and an annual phosphate recovery potential of 4.5–5.5 million tonnes (as P₂O₅) in Europe.
