培养原料种类的减少对人工窖泥发酵剂菌群结构的影响

为实现人工窖泥发酵剂（APMSC）的品质控制，从前期开发的发酵剂配方中分别取出老熟窖泥、曲药、酒糟和黄水初步形成4个简化配方，采用扩增子测序和色谱技术比较了各配方发酵剂的微生物群落结构及香味物质含量差异。结果显示，各配方发酵剂样品中共检测到70个微生物操作分类单元（OTU），其中71.43%为各组样品共有，未检测到独有OTU。各配方样品的优势微生物均存在于其余分组中，仅物种相对丰度有所差异。根据酿酒有益微生物的丰度高低，选择了一种简化配方（无老熟窖泥作原料）发酵剂养护窖池，使酿造白酒的主体香味物质含量得到显著提高。结果表明，即使缺失了某一种培养原料，人工窖泥发酵剂的功能微生物物种也可能由其他原料补充，而原料种类的减少是实现发酵剂品质控制的主要途径。

Developing microencapsulated 12‐hydroxystearic acid (HSA) for phase change material use

Phase change materials (PCM) have an increasingly more important role as a thermal energy storage (TES) media. However, leakage problem of PCM causes limitation during their integration in TES systems. Therefore, the encapsulation of PCMs is attracting research interest to extend usage of PCMs in real TES applications in recent years. In this study, hydroxystearic acid (HSA) was encapsulated with polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and different PMMA comonomer shells via emulsion polymerization method for the first time in literature. HSA with high melting temperature range (74–78°C) can widen the scope of using PCMs, and the encapsulated form can make it more versatile. The chemical structures, morphologies, and thermophysical properties of capsules were determined by FT‐IR, SEM, DSC, TGA, and thermal infrared camera. Among the produced HSA capsule candidates, PMMA‐HEMA is the most promising with latent heat of 48.5 J/g with melting range of 47 to 85°C. SEM analysis indicated that the capsules have spherical shape with compact surface at nano‐micro (100–440 nm) size range; however, some capsules exhibited agglomeration.     

Airborne bacterial assemblage in a zero carbon building: A case study

Currently, there is little information pertaining to the airborne bacterial communities of green buildings. In this case study, the air bacterial community of a zero carbon building (ZCB) in Hong Kong was characterized by targeting the bacterial 16S rRNA gene. Bacteria associated with the outdoor environment dominated the indoor airborne bacterial assemblage, with a modest contribution from bacteria associated with human skin. Differences in overall community diversity, membership, and composition associated with short (day‐to‐day) and long‐term temporal properties were detected, which may have been driven by specific environmental genera and taxa. Furthermore, time‐decay relationships in community membership (based on unweighted UniFrac distances) and composition (based on weighted UniFrac distances) differed depending on the season and sampling location. A Bayesian source‐tracking approach further supported the importance of adjacent outdoor air bacterial assemblage in sourcing the ZCB indoor bioaerosol. Despite the unique building attributes, the ZCB microbial assemblage detected and its temporal characteristics were not dissimilar to that of conventional built environments investigated previously. Future controlled experiments and microbial assemblage investigations of other ZCBs will undoubtedly uncover additional knowledge related to how airborne bacteria in green buildings may be influenced by their distinctive architectural attributes.     

Optimization of three-dimensional boiling enhancement structure at evaporation surface for high power light emitting diode

A theoretical model of phase change heat sink was established in terms of thermal resistance network. The influence of different parameters on the thermal resistance was analyzed and the crucial impact factors were determined. Subsequently, the forming methods including ploughing–extrusion and stamping method of boiling enhancement structure at evaporation surface were investigated, upon which three-dimensional microgroove structure was fabricated to improve the efficiency of evaporation. Moreover, the crucial parameters related to the fabrication of miniaturized phase change heat sink were optimized. The heat transfer performance of the heat sink was tested. Results show that the developed phase change heat sink has excellent heat transfer performance and is suitable for high power LED applications.     

以风化煤为底物制取生物甲烷的潜力分析

我国拥有丰富的风化煤储量,因其高度被氧化的独特性质,可应用的领域极为有限,目前主要被作为改善土壤性质的肥料和制取腐殖酸的来源。以风化煤为底物制取生物甲烷是一种具有探索性的全新生物发酵工艺,探究其可行性及模拟实验过程中风化煤的物性特征变化有利于拓宽风化煤的资源利用和环境改善,并可以进一步丰富煤生物产气理论。实验选取内蒙古乌海和山西晋城两地不同风化程度煤样,以煤层矿井水为菌种来源,在适宜环境条件下开展模拟产气实验,通过生物产气模拟和红外光谱测试,分析不同风化程度煤的生物产气能力及其内在因素,以揭示其产气潜力及物性变化特征。结果表明:①随着煤的风化程度加深,可燃基CH 4产气量明显增加,两组煤样中可燃基CH 4生成量最高分别达到7.13,4.20 mL/g;②不同风化程度的煤样均出现了产气高峰,时间基本都出现在15~30 d,各组中随着煤样风化程度不断加深,产气高峰出现时间也越来越早;③随着煤的风化程度加深,煤中芳环被不断打开,大分子结构被破坏,同时煤中羟基、氨基等基团含量趋于降低,脂碳结构逐渐解体,含氧官能团成为主要结构,氧含量比例不断增高,更容易被微生物降解;④菌群鉴定表明风化煤不仅含有大量产生生物气所需的第1阶段和第2阶段细菌,更含有甲烷杆菌属、甲烷球菌属等多种类型的产甲烷菌群,具有把风化煤转化为生物甲烷的环境条件。实验结果最终反映了风化煤具有转化为生物甲烷的潜力,并有利于提高我国风化煤的资源利用率。     

羟基(—OH)对煤自燃侧链活性基团氧化反应特性的影响

针对煤结构及其氧化反应机理不明等问题,以羟基(—OH)和煤自燃侧链活性基团—OCH,—CHOHCH 3和—OCH 3为研究对象,采用密度泛函理论(DFT)的B3LYP-311G(d,p)方法,构建出了羟基(—OH)处于侧链活性结构邻位的小分子结构模型。基于前线轨道理论和量子化学理论,采用Gaussian 16软件对小分子模型的静电势、前线轨道的能级和电荷分布及煤氧复合反应过程中的热力学参数进行了模拟计算,探究了侧链活性基团的低温氧化特性和羟基(—OH)对其的影响。计算结果显示,在侧链活性结构中,氢原子周边呈强正电势,为亲核反应活性位点,而氧原子附近呈强负电势,为亲电反应活性位点。当羟基(—OH)处于侧链活性基团邻位时,会削弱侧链活性基团的亲电反应能力,增加—CHO和—CHOHCH 3的亲核反应能力,而使—OCH 3的亲核反应能力消失;通过分析各活性基团最高占据轨道(HOMO:Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital)和最低未占轨道(LUMO:Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital)可知,侧链活性基团的稳定性与其前线轨道的成键能力并不一致,而活性基团与氧气发生复合反应的难易程度主要取决于该基团前线轨道中LUMO的成键能力,成键能力越强,复合反应越容易发生;由于羟基(—OH)改变了侧链活性基团前线轨道上的电子特性,故当其与侧链基团共存时,会使—CHO和—CHOHCH 3与氧气的复合反应更容易发生,而使—OCH 3与氧气的复合由自发的放热反应转变为非自发的吸热反应。该研究成果可为揭示煤自燃微观作用机理和研发煤自燃新型高效阻化材料提供参考。     

油封唇口温度变化对密封性能的影响

基于流量因子统计学方法建立油封唇口的混合流体润滑模型,耦合油封的能量守恒方程及黏温方程,通过迭代求解获得油封唇口的温度分布、不同转速下油封唇口的最高温度及温差变化情况;对比分析考虑和不考虑温差情况下油封各项密封性能。结果表明:随着转速的增大,唇口最高温度线性递增,而唇口温差先增大后减小;油封工作时,唇口区域的温度先迅速升高后下降,越靠近唇尖的位置温度越高;与不考虑温度的情况比较,考虑温度变化的影响时密封区域的油膜厚度减小,油膜承载力下降,不利于密封。
