A model recycling process for low density polyethylene

A dissolution/reprecipitation process has been developed for recycling low density polyethylene. In this paper model experiments on virgin material, either in the form of pellets or film for greenhouses, are presented. It is proposed dissolution of the plastic in an appropriate solvent, reprecipitation by means of non-solvents, washing of the material obtained and drying. The solvent mixtures involved are separated by distillation for further reuse. Toluene/acetone proved to be the most satisfactory solvent/non-solvent system. The recycled material was evaluated in terms of the following properties: melt flow index (MFI), crystallinity, mechanical performance in tensile mode and grain size analysis.     

Reductive decomposition of waste gypsum with SiO<Subscript>2</Subscript>, Al<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>3</Subscript>, and Fe<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>3</Subscript> additives

From the point of view of a sustainable and environment-friendly society based on the recycling of material resources, it is preferable to utilize waste gypsum as a substitute for lime, which is currently produced by the calcination of limestone. In the present work, the reductive decomposition of CaSO₄ was investigated under an atmosphere of CO: 2 vol%, CO₂: 30 vol%, with N₂ as a carrier gas without and with the addition of SiO₂, Al₂O₃, or Fe₂O₃. It was found that the decomposition temperature of CaSO₄ was significantly reduced from 1673 K to 1223 K when only 5 wt% Fe₂O₃ was added to CaSO₄. In the case of the addition of SiO₂ or Al₂O₃ to CaSO₄, the decomposition temperature was reduced from 1673 K to 1623 K. This was due to the formation of composite oxides (calcium ferrite, calcium silicate, or calcium aluminate) during the reaction of CaSO₄ with the additives at a lower temperature. In addition, the formation of unfavorable product CaS was inhibited in the presence of 5 wt% Fe₂O₃, and this inhibition effect further increased as the addition of Fe₂O₃ was increased. In contrast, no significant effect on the inhibition of CaS formation was observed on the addition of SiO₂ or Al₂O₃.

铬渣动态淋滤重金属铬溶解释放规律研究

为了全面系统地研究铬渣中Cr(Ⅵ)和Cr(Ⅲ)溶解释放特征,以锦州和沈阳两地铬渣堆场为研究对象,通过动态淋滤试验,测定滤出液中Cr(Ⅵ)和总铬的质量浓度变化,分析铬渣淋滤液中Cr(Ⅵ)和Cr(Ⅲ)溶解释放规律。试验结果表明,锦州新铬渣和沈阳陈铬渣淋滤过程中,Cr(Ⅵ)和总铬浓度都经历先迅速下降再缓慢下降的过程;相较锦州新铬渣,沈阳陈铬渣Cr(Ⅵ)和总铬浓度下降都较慢,且初始浓度也较低;相比Cr(Ⅵ)的溶出,两地铬渣Cr(Ⅲ)的溶出量均较少,Cr(Ⅲ)溶出占比呈波动性上升趋势;锦州新铬渣和沈阳陈铬渣的Cr(Ⅵ)和总铬溶出浓度随淋出液体积分别呈双指数曲线衰减关系和幂函数曲线衰减关系。试验成果将为防治铬渣对地下水污染提供科学理论依据。     

不同预处理的木薯渣水解液生物酸化特性比较

木薯渣富含纤维素,是理想的沼气生产原料。由于木薯渣含水量大,颗粒分散,不易固态发酵,作为沼气生产原料需对其进行水解处理。不同的水解方式得到的水解液对后续酸化过程的产酸速率和酸分布都有很大影响。对经过酶处理和水热处理得到的木薯渣水解液进行了生物酸化处理。结果显示,与直接投加木薯渣相比,投加酶水解液、投加150℃水解液水解20min和150℃水解液水解45min后,反应器达到最大产酸量所需的时间由96h分别缩短至30,48和24h,最大产酸量由4558mg/L分别增加至5277,6209和4734mg/L,且3种水解液在酸化24h后挥发性脂肪酸(VFAs)均达到最优分布,其中乙酸和正丁酸之和占总VFAs的90%左右。根据产酸速度及酸分布情况得出,木薯渣最佳可溶化方法为150℃高温水解20min,后续生物水解酸化时间为24h。     

功能微生物对污染农田土壤中铅锌的溶出实验

用微生物修复重金属污染的土壤是当今的研究热点之一。试图寻找一类可以增加土壤中重金属铅、锌的可溶态的功能微生物,并研究该微生物在不同土壤含水率和不同投菌比条件下对铅、锌溶出作用的影响。最终筛选出符合条件的菌JK3,并发现当土壤含水率为35%,投菌比为0.15 mL/g土(菌液OD=1)时,土壤中铅和锌的可溶态增加量最多。其中,可溶态铅的含量由原来的0.49 mg/kg增加到了5.04 mg/kg,可溶态锌的含量由原来的2.23 mg/kg增加到了22.44mg/kg。该方法为后续用植物提取或化学淋洗等方法将土壤中的重金属彻底去除提供了可能。

氢氧化镁是一种正在研究的用于脱除烟气中低浓度CO2的化学吸收剂。为了掌握工业用氢氧化镁粉末的溶解速率,利用缓冲溶液,在不改变溶液体积的情况下对不同悬浊液浓度、溶液温度、溶液pH值和搅拌速率情况下的氢氧化镁粉末溶解速率进行了研究。提高悬浊液浓度、提高溶液温度、降低溶液pH值和提高搅拌速率均能增大氢氧化镁的溶解速率。悬浊液浓度从0.1 mol/L增加到1 mol/L时,溶解速率增大了2.2倍;温度从23℃增加到52℃时,溶解速率增大了4.3～9.5倍;pH值从9.8降低到6.6时,溶解速率增大了78～225倍;搅拌速率从350 r/min增加到700 r/min时,溶解速率增大了1～2倍。
