Determining most effective structural form of nickel-cobalt catalysts for dry reforming of methane

In this study, catalytic activity of carbon dioxide reforming of methane was investigated over nickel-cobalt catalysts in various structural forms. Catalytic activity tests were performed at the temperatures of 600–800 °C in a micro-flow quartz reactor. SEM-EDX, XRD and XPS studies were also performed to understand the surface morphology of the catalysts. The results showed that 8 wt%Ni-2wt.%Co on wash-coated MgO over monolithic structure led to highest catalytic performances with CH₄ and CO₂ conversions of 83% and 89% respectively as well as H₂/CO ratio of 0.95 at 750 °C. SEM-EDX and XPS results of catalyst spent at 750 °C also showed considerable amount of coke formation; however, the use of 3% oxygen in the feed suppressed the coke formation significantly. The catalyst was stable for 48 h in the presence of O₂ (3%) added feed at the temperature of 750 °C.     

煤化工烟道气毒性成分对Chlorella pyrenoidosa生长和细胞成分的影响

探究煤化工烟道气中毒性成分对微藻的影响是利用微藻固定煤化工烟道气CO₂实现减排的关键。本文利用不同浓度的NaHS、Na₂SO₃和NH₃·H₂O培养Chlorella pyrenoidosa（C. pyrenoidosa），以探究煤化工烟道气主要毒性成分H₂S、SO₂和NH₃气体水溶物的毒性。实验结果表明：NaHS、Na₂SO₃和NH₃·H₂O浓度分别低于1mmol/(L·d)、40mmol/(L·d)和7mmol/(L·d)时对C. pyrenoidosa生长无抑制作用，而且Na₂SO₃[＜40mmol/(L·d)]会显著促进 C. pyrenoidosa的生长；NaHS 添加4mmol/(L·d)时会在生长初期抑制C. pyrenoidosa的生长，NH₃·H₂O添加35mmol/(L·d)则会直接造成藻细胞的破碎死亡。与对照组相比，NaHS和Na₂SO₃浓度分别低于1mmol/(L·d)、10mmol/(L·d)时对C. pyrenoidosa的细胞成分无影响；NaHS添加4mmol/(L·d)使藻蛋白含量提高7.13%；Na₂SO₃添加40mmol/(L·d)使藻蛋白降低13.45%，总糖含量提高42.90%；NH₃·H₂O的添加会使藻蛋白含量降低，总糖含量提高。微藻生物质整体蛋白质含量较高，可作为蛋白饲料来源。研究结果表明，C. pyrenoidosa对煤化工烟道气中的主要毒性气体有较好的耐受性，利用煤化工烟道气培养微藻具有可行性。     

二氧化碳联合核桃壳提取液促进单针藻Monoraphidium sp. QLZ-3的生长和油脂积累

以单针藻Monoraphidium sp. QLZ-3为对象，研究了CO₂对微藻在核桃壳提取液（walnut shell extracts，WSE）中生长及油脂积累的影响。结果显示，在12%的CO₂条件下，微藻在WSE中的生物量产率及油脂产率达到196.85mg/(L·d)和97.52mg/(L·d)，分别是对照组的1.33倍和1.57倍。WSE培养下，外源CO₂上调了微藻中核酮糖1,5-二磷酸羧化酶基因（ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase，rbcL）的表达量，从而促进了CO₂的固定。此外，12% 的CO₂提高了微藻对WSE中多酚的利用，同时上调了乙酰辅酶A羧化酶（acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase，ACCase）和苹果酸酶（malic enzyme，ME）活性，下调了磷酸烯醇式丙酮酸羧化酶（phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase，PEPC）活性。研究表明，CO₂可以提高WSE中微藻的生物量产率和油脂产率，降低培养成本，为核桃壳的资源化利用及微藻的工业化生产提供了新的理论基础。     

钛合金表面多磁极耦合旋转磁场光整加工特性

面向激光增材制造钛合金表面的光整加工需求，设计出一种多磁极耦合旋转磁场光整加工装置来研究光整加工特性。基于ANSYS Maxwell仿真软件分析了光整加工装置的磁场强度分布。搭建了实验光整平台，分析了主轴转速、C轴转速和加工间隙对表面质量的影响。结果表明，在主轴转速500 r/min、C轴转速160 r/min和加工间隙0.7 mm的加工条件下，表面粗糙度Ra由5.991 μm下降至0793 μm。扫描电子显微镜(SEM)观测表明，光整后的钛合金表面沉积层消失，表面质量得到显著改善。     

改性氧化钛对羟乙基乙二胺水溶液解吸CO2的强化

羟乙基乙二胺（AEE）水溶液的CO₂循环吸收量高（1.2molCO₂/molAEE），吸收速度快，稳定性好，但解吸速度慢、解吸量少（0.8mol CO₂/mol AEE）是限制该技术广泛应用的主要原因。本文通过向AEE水溶液中添加质量分数为0.05%～0.20%的改性氧化钛（TiO₂-MWCNT和TiO₂-OH）强化AEE的解吸能力。CO₂循环吸收（40℃）-解吸（120℃）实验结果表明改性氧化钛的添加比氧化钛强化CO₂解吸效果更好，强化顺序为TiO₂-MWCNT＞TiO₂-OH；其对应的最大解吸速率分别为0.093L/min（质量分数0.15%）和0.083L/min（质量分数0.20%），相对于AEE水溶液，分别提高了32.9%和18.6%；其对应的最大解吸量分别为0.92molCO₂/molAEE（质量分数0.15%）和0.88molCO₂/molAEE（质量分数0.20%），分别提高了12.2%和9.7%；其对应的CO₂循环吸收量分别是0.95molCO₂/molAEE（质量分数0.15%）和0.89molCO₂/molAEE（质量分数0.15%），分别提高了18.75%和11.25%；5次循环吸收解吸实验结果表明改性氧化钛强化CO₂解吸效果稳定，具有较强的化学稳定性。对反应后的改性氧化钛进行XRD、BET、FTIR和SEM表征，结果表明改性氧化钛具有较强的结构稳定性。TiO₂-MWCNT和TiO₂-OH在促进有机胺溶液解吸CO₂方面具有一定的工业应用潜力。

Highly textured and strongly anisotropic TiB2 ceramics prepared using magnetic field alignment (9T)

Highly textured TiB₂ ceramics were prepared by slip casting an aqueous suspension in a magnetic field of 9 T, followed by sintering using Field Assisted Sintering Technology (FAST). Particle size refinement by ball milling improved both the degree of texturing and densification of the material (RD > 98 %). The sintered material exhibited a Lotgering orientation factor of 0.90, with the c-axis of TiB₂ oriented parallel to the magnetic field and FAST pressing direction. The texturing effect induced by the uniaxial pressing was negligible. The textured TiB₂ material exhibited a significant anisotropy in mechanical properties; the values of hardness and indentation elastic modulus measured along directions transverse to the c-axis of TiB₂ were 37 % and 13 % higher than the ones measured along the c-axis direction. Moreover, the specific wear rate of a surface of textured TiB₂ parallel to the field was one order of magnitude lower than a surface perpendicular to the field.

TG6钛合金冷却过程的块状转变机制研究

在近α型TG6钛合金两相区淬火过程中,对初生α相αP周围形成的块状组织αm进行表征研究,块状组织αm与αP存在明显的界面,合金元素Al、Sn和Zr浓度介于αP和β基体之间,EBSD分析结果表明αm取向与αP保持一致。在冷却过程中,αP周围β基体中合金元素扩散受到限制,进而在局部过渡成分区域通过扩散转变形成αm组织。当固溶温度从1040℃提高至1060℃,同时保温时间从30 min减少为5 min,溶质元素扩散受限,αm体积分数从5.2%提升至30.7%。     

Polyurethane foaming with CO2 adducts from C8 alkyl grafted polyethyleneimines: Optimization of the grafting rate and application of the blowing agents

We previously explored a series of CO₂ adducts from alkylated polyethylenimines with C₄ to C₁₆ alkyl side chains, serving as climate-friendly blowing agents for polyurethanes (PUs). Among them, the polyethylenimine with C₈ alkyl (2-ethylhexyl) side chains demonstrated the highest foaming efficiency. In this study, we further changed the grafting rate of the C₈ alkyl, from 7 to 16%, and investigated the effects of the resulting blowing agents on the foaming process. For both foaming systems containing a castor oil-derived polyol (Polycin T-400) or a poly(propylene glycol) polyol (Polyether 4110), the CO₂ adducts with a grafting rate of 13% displayed the best foaming performance in terms of high dispersibility in the foaming systems, homogenous cellular morphology, and good mechanical properties. Moreover, the 13%-C₈-alkylated blowing agent demonstrated high suitability for the foaming systems from biomass-sourced polyols (like Polycin T-400). Therefore, the optimized CO₂-adduct blowing agent could replace the currently used climate-changing hydrochlorofluorocarbons and hydrofluorocarbons, as well as might contribute to the development of future renewable PU foams. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
