生物质慢速热解工艺的新探讨

慢速热解作为生物质气流床气化的前处理工艺在国内为首创。慢速热解方法不仅可以脱除生物质内的氧元素提高能量密度,而且可以改变生物质的物性有效解决生物质气流床气化过程的输送问题。文章分析了不同生物质种类热解后固体产物、液体产物和气体产物的特性,并且粗略衡算了热解过程的吸热量。结果表明:在热解温度<500℃时,液体产物和气体产物的热值随着热解温度的升高而增加;为得到高固体产率和能量产率的半焦作为气化原料,热解温度不宜>500℃;从能量衡算角度分析而得,热解过程的吸热量很少。

短程硝化的生化机理及其动力学

短程硝化的生化反应机理和动力学是生物脱氮技术的理论基础,同时也是生物脱氮工艺设计、运行科学化和合理化的重要依据.基于短程硝化的生化机理、氨氧化菌的电子传递(能量产生)模式,从微生物学和化学计量学两个方面详细论述了短程硝化一系列复杂的生化反应过程.由此可知,短程硝化是一个涉及多种酶及多种中间产物,并伴随着电子(能量)传递的复杂生化反应过程,是基质(NH4 -N)利用(产能代谢)和微生物(氨氧化菌)增殖(合成代谢)两类反应的综合,因此,研究氨氮比利用速率和氨氧化菌比增殖速率动力学则是对短程硝化反应的深层次研讨.并建议采用积分法和微分法来确定动力学参数μnmax、KN、vnmax.     

花岗岩颗粒流模型循环压缩作用下裂纹特征分析

为了分析花岗岩颗粒流模型循环作用下的裂纹特征，基于花岗岩单轴压缩试验得到的应力应变曲线，完成了PFC3D数值试验的参数标定，探讨了不同循环次数下数值试件内部裂纹数目、分布和角度的变化规律。研究结果表明:平行黏结模型能够正确表达花岗岩的主要力学性质；在数值试验加载至破坏过程中，裂纹数目以应力应变曲线峰值点为分界，峰后阶段产生的裂纹数占总裂纹数的60%~90%;张剪裂纹最初产生于试件两端，随着加载进行，裂纹向着试件中部发展贯通，最终形成宏观剪切破坏带；剪切裂纹的角度分布方向明显，与轴向加载方向相同；张拉裂纹角度分布则在轴向加载方向和水平方向上略显集中。研究结果可为矿山安全回采矿柱提供依据。     

Emissions of volatile hydrocarbons from floating roof tanks and their local dispersion: Considerations for normal operation and in case of damage

This work investigates the release and dispersion of volatile organic hydrocarbons, which may escape from external floating roof tanks (EFRT) during normal operation or in case of damage. The dispersion will be described using CFD simulations in close range of the EFRT where hazardous areas are assigned. The aim of this work is to investigate which events can lead to emissions in dangerous quantities and to estimate the corresponding likelihood with regard to explosion protection. An emission in hazardous amount is present if the lower explosion limit has been exceeded and if the extent of this emission is not too low. It is discussed in particular whether the used zoning of potentially explosive areas is conservative or over-conservative.     

Kinetic mechanism and effects of molecular structure on thermal hazards of azo compounds

In this paper, the kinetic mechanism of AIBN, AMBN, and ABVN was proposed, and the effect of molecular structure on their thermal hazards based on the kinetic mechanism was investigated. Calculated by non-isothermal DSC datum, the kinetic mechanism of AIBN, AMBN, and ABVN is revealed by the linear relationship between the integrated form of mechanical function and reaction time. The results indicate that the thermal decomposition process is controlled by the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami equation. Based on the determination of kinetic mechanism function, the reaction rate constants at various heating rates are directly calculated, and the intercept of the best fitting straight line of reaction rate constants with heating rate is approximately equal to the reaction rate constant under isothermal conditions. Besides, theoretical values obtained by multiplying kinetic mechanism function by reaction rate are well consistent with the experimental values, suggesting that the kinetic mechanism obtained is credible. Bond Dissociation Energies (BDE) calculated by quantum chemical equations are employed to evaluate the thermodynamics stability of AIBN, AMBN, and ABVN. Depending on similar molecular structures, the influence of differentiated group structure on the thermodynamic stability represented by BDE and heat release and the kinetic stability characterized by reaction rate constant were revealed. Finally, the results demonstrate that the thermal hazard increases as the volume of substituent group and molecular weight.     

Evaluation of thermal hazard characteristics of four low temperature reactive azo compounds under isothermal conditions

The polymerization reaction can lower the threshold of the required energy by the initiator to improve the efficiency of the overall process reaction. Emerging polymerization initiators are also a major focus of process improvement and technological progress. Azo compounds (azos), which used in dyeing applications, are subsequently used in polymerization reactions due to their highly exothermic reaction characteristics. Although higher heat release can promote polymerization and modify the product, heat generation may also cause process hazards.These thermal hazard parameters were studied by selecting dimethyl 2,2′-azobis(2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile) (ABVN), 2,2′-azobis(2-methyl propionate) (AIBME), 2,2′-azobis(2-methylpropionamide) dihydrochloride (AIBA), and 2,2′-azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN), which are common azo initiators at present. Thermal hazards are closely related to the reaction kinetics of the substance itself. The form of the reaction, the apparent activation energy and the thermodynamic parameters of the exothermic mode were also obtained.Kinetic analysis of the actual process using the experimental data of the isothermal calorimetry model is rarely used in the evaluation of related thermal hazard characteristics. The simulation results revealed the kinetic azo models and were further applied to calculate the runaway situations of azo under specific boundary conditions.     

Female oviposition-site preference and egg hatching success in the damselfly Calopteryx splendens xanthostoma

By removing males and controlling the rate of water flow past oviposition patches in an experimental area, we showed that female Calopteryx splendens xanthostoma preferred to oviposit in fast flowing water rather than slow flowing water. A series of manipulations revealed the fitness benefits to females for this preference: eggs placed in fast-flowing water developed significantly faster and showed significantly lower mortality than eggs placed in slow-flowing water. A major factor determining this difference was the deposition and growth of encrusting algae which prevented the successful hatching of eggs in slow-flowing water.

丰水期乌江上游干流水库-河流体系硫同位素组成

2007年7月对乌江上游河流、乌江干流上的3座不同库龄的梯级水库（洪家渡水库、东风水库、乌江渡水库）表层及垂直剖面水体的可溶性硫酸盐的硫同位素组成进行了研究。在垂直剖面上，洪家渡水库硫同位素值（δ34S）介于+03‰~+31‰，下泄水为-07‰；东风水库δ34S值介于-75‰~-55‰，下泄水为-68‰；乌江渡水库δ34S值介于-43‰~-06‰，下泄水为-29‰。上述结论表明，硫同位素组成变化反映了水库硫的不同来源及生物地球化学过程。不同水库表层和垂直剖面水体的硫同位素平均值有差别，水库表层的硫同位素比值主要受输入水体的控制，垂直剖面由表层向下硫同位素比值偏负，主要是由于生物作用以及有机硫的氧化造成的。
