Effects of calcium hydroxide and calcium chloride addition to bentonite in iron ore pelletization.

Pyrite ash is created as waste from the roasting of pyrite ores during the production of sulphuric acid. These processes generate great amounts of pyrite ash waste that is generally land filled. This creates serious environmental pollution due to the release of acids and toxic substances. Pyrite ash waste can be utilized in the iron production industry as a blast furnace feed to process this waste and prevent environmental pollution. The essential parameters affecting the pelletization process of pyrite ash were studied using bentonite as a binder. Experiments were then carried out using bentonite and a mixture of bentonite with calcium hydroxide and calcium chloride in order to make the bentonite more effective. The metallurgical properties of pyrite ash, bentonite, calcium hydroxide, calcium chloride, a mixture of these and sintered pellets were studied using X-ray analysis. The crushing strength tests were carried out to investigate the strength of pyrite ash waste pellets. The results of these analyses showed that pyrite ash can be agglomerated to pellets and used in the iron production industry as a blast furnace feed. The crushing strength of the pellets containing calcium hydroxide and calcium chloride in addition to bentonite was better than the strength of pellets prepared using only bentonite binder.

介质膜干涉滤光片标准物质研究

研制介质膜干涉滤光片标准物质,包含3片不同标称值波长的滤光片,厚度为(2~3)mm,根据光谱中性金属膜的材质不同其峰值波长称值大约450 nm、550 nm、670 nm,用以检测光谱光度计波长示值误差和重复性。滤光片采用分光光度计方法进行定值,溯源至自然基准低压石英汞灯。根据(JJF 1343-2012)《标准物质定值的通用原则及统计学原理》和(JJG 812-93)《干涉滤光片检定规程》通过对滤光片进行均匀性检验、稳定性考核和介质膜干涉滤光片波长测量的不确定度评定,完成介质膜干涉滤光片标准物质的研究工作。     

长春市中心城区道路绿地土壤肥力调查与评价研究

实验采集了长春市中心城区12条主干道的0 cm~20 cm土壤进行调查,研究其容重、孔隙度、p H值、有机物含量、碱解氮含量、速效磷含量等理化性质,使用内梅罗指数法对土壤肥力进行了综合评价。结果表明:道路土壤p H值变幅8.10~9.70,与自然土壤相比p H值总体呈现碱性;有机质含量均值为37.94 g/kg,有机质含量较高,但变异系数大,各道路间差异较大;速效磷含量变化范围是2.92~51.18 mg/kg,处于中等偏低水平;碱解氮含量平均值为118.05 mg/kg,处在中等水平;土壤肥力指数在0.54~2.00之间,长春市道路土壤较为贫瘠。     

青年群体对传统绿色生态文化回归的影响研究

传统方法对青年群体绿色生态文化回归的影响分析中,存在青年群体分析影响片面,影响分析计算准确率较低的问题。为此提出青年群体对传统绿色生态文化回归的影响与思考。通过勒布朗斯回归数学影响方程确定影响因子,建立青年群体主观因子与客观因子之间的动态关联;采用大数据分析,构建大数据影响因子数据分析模型;依托绿色生态文化回归影响算法,从而完成青年群体对传统绿色生态文化回归的影响分析。该影响分析方法比传统方法平均准确度提升3.55倍,且能够实现青年群体对传统绿色生态文化回归的影响分析。     

A study on the interactions among several plant secondary compounds and aphids

The research, focused on the specific interactions among seven plant secondary compounds and aphids, was carried out and the preliminary results showed: (1) "T-typed tube method" was regarded as the best method compared with others designed to observe the interactions. (2) Cabbage aphid was able to be attracted by laurolene while it was not susceptible to α-pinene, β-pinene and diamylene. (3) Gossypol, a major secondary substance in cotton, was able to be implicated as feeding attractant to cotton aphid. (4) Rutin might be implicated repellent to cotton aphid.     

Working backwards to move forwards: Graph-based connectivity metrics for reserve network selection

In this paper we apply graph theory in a reserve selection exercise to explore the tradeoffs between maintaining connectivity and minimizing the total area of a protected area network. Rather than focus on a single organism, we used a multi-species approach and looked at the tradeoff curves for organisms with varying dispersal abilities. We first generated the tradeoff curves using a graph-based metric to determine the importance of individual patches for maintaining connectivity. We then performed an analogous set of analyses using patch size as a surrogate measure of importance.
