Analysis of the Energy Embodied in Foreign Goods Trade of China

Abstract

In recent years, scientists have been increasingly interested in the energy embodied in traded goods among countries. In this article, the direct energy intensities in various economic sectors of China were calculated with the data of energy consumption and output value of each sector, and the input–output table was used to estimate the external energy consumption. The total energy intensity of all sectors was then obtained. From the data of international trade, the energy embodied in goods trade of China was estimated for the period of 1994–2001. During this period, the average energy intensity of imported goods was always higher than that of exported ones. As a country with a surplus in international goods trade, China actually imported net embodied energy in the past few years. The net embodied energy imported was at the same magnitude of the imported energy in the form of fossil fuels.     

Regulating non-precious transition metal nitrides bifunctional electrocatalysts through surface/interface nanoengineering for air-cathodes of Zn-air batteries

Zn-air batteries (ZABs), especially the secondary batteries, have engrossed a great interest because of its high specific energy, economical and high safety. However, due to the insufficient activity and stability of bifunctional electrocatalysts for air-cathode oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) processes, the practical application of rechargeable ZABs is seriously hindered. In the effort of developing high active, stable and cost-effective electrocatalysts, transition metal nitrides (TMNs) have been regarded as the candidates due to their high conductivity, strong corrosion-resistance, and bifunctional catalytic performance. In this paper, the research progress in TMNs-based material as ORR and OER electrocatalysts for ZABs is discussed with respect to their synthesis, chemical/physical characterization, and performance validation/optimization. The surface/interface nanoengineering strategies such as defect engineering, support binding, heteroatom introduction, crystal plane orientation, interface construction and small size effect, the physical and chemical properties of TMNs-based electrocatalysts are emphasized with respect to their structures/morphologies, composition, electrical conductivity, specific surface area, chemical stability and corrosion resistance. The challenges of TMNs-based materials as bifunctional air-cathode electrocatalysts in practical application are evaluated, and numerous research guidelines to solve these problems are put forward for facilitating further research and development.

霉菌吸附水体中Cr(Ⅵ)Cd(Ⅱ)离子研究

采用从活性污泥中筛选的ZYL霉菌,进行吸附水体中Cr(Ⅵ)、Cd(Ⅱ)离子研究。研究结果表明:在Cr(Ⅵ)、Cd(Ⅱ)浓度分别为300mg/L时,菌种生长良好。吸附水体中[Cr(Ⅵ)、Cd(Ⅱ)]的最佳条件是pH=5.0,时间1h,温度为10℃。吸附规律符合Langm uir等温吸附模型,由回归方程得到Cr(Ⅵ)的表观最大吸附量为14m g/g;Cd(Ⅱ)的表观最大吸附量为52m g/g,说明该霉菌可以很好的去除低温水体(地下水)中Cr(Ⅵ)、Cd(Ⅱ)离子。     

好氧颗粒污泥处理市政污水性能与微生物特性研究

以成熟好氧颗粒污泥（AGS）为接种污泥,在序批式反应器（SBR）中考察其对低浓度市政污水的处理效能、污泥特性及微生物多样性的变化.结果表明,在低有机负荷（进水COD为179~212 mg·L^-1）、高溶解氧（DO>5 mg·L^-1）条件下,系统出水COD低于50 mg·L^-1,NH₄⁺-N浓度稳定在0.7~0.8 mg·L^-1,但脱氮除磷效能有待优化.体系中0.2~0.6 mm的污泥颗粒最为稳定,运行期间污泥SVI₃₀值始终保持在32~40 mL·g^-1,呈现出良好的沉降性能.系统中少量絮状污泥的存在对AGS的稳定性是有利的,本试验条件下,<0.2 mm污泥体积占比约为30%时AGS体系稳定运行.胞外聚合物（EPS）中蛋白质（PN）含量增加与AGS的稳定性呈正相关,可见PN对AGS稳定运行起着重要作用.微生物高通量测序结果表明,Proteobacteria和Bacteroidetes为主要菌门;运行过程中有利于硝化作用的Gammaproteobacteria逐渐成为优势菌纲;系统中存在促进EPS分泌和有机污染物去除的黄杆菌属（Flavobacterium）和陶厄氏菌属（Thauera）,这有利于AGS的稳定运行,同时也存在硝化螺旋菌属（Nitrospira）、陶厄氏菌属（Thauera）、副球菌属（Paracoccus）、梭菌属（Fusibacter）、变形菌属（Proteocatella）等脱氮除磷功能菌属,但需优化运行参数强化同步脱氮除磷效能.本研究结果对AGS系统处理实际市政污水的稳定运行具有重要的指导意义.
