TG-FTIR and Py-GC/MS study of the pyrolysis mechanism and composition of volatiles from flash pyrolysis of PVC

To facilitate the reuse and recycling of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to achieve sustainable development and new industrialization, the composition and mechanism of formation of volatiles during the flash pyrolysis of PVC were studied by thermogravimetry-Fourier transform infrared (TG-FTIR) and pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS). TG and derivative thermogravimetry (DTG) analyses indicated two main degradation stages during flash pyrolysis of PVC, namely dehydrochlorination of PVC and decomposition of dechlorinated-PVC. Simultaneously, the FTIR results revealed that the main functional groups in the pyrolysis process were H–Cl, -C-Cl, C–H, CH, and aromatic groups. The relative content of main volatiles was determined by Py-GC/MS, and decreased in the following order: aromatics > alkenes > hydrogen chloride (HCl) > chlorinated hydrocarbons. Specifically, the relative content of aromatics was as high as 76.790–81.809%, while that of HCl was in the range of 3.016–3.096%. The carbon number distribution and the relative content of main products obtained from the flash pyrolysis of PVC at different final temperatures were also analysed. According to the experimental results, the mechanism of formation of the main volatiles based on free-radical reactions was deduced in detail. Therefore, this study provides further details for deepening the understanding of the PVC pyrolysis process.     

基于相位补偿的矿井超宽带雷达压缩感知成像算法

基于UWB信号的井下探测成像系统中,根据Nyquist采样定理,提高发射信号的带宽以获取高分辨率,将导致大量的采样数据产生,过大的采样率将会在成像系统的硬件实现上带来很大困难。另一方面,在实际成像过程中,成像数据的完整性决定了最后成像结果的准确性,但由于存在不可避免的误差和噪声影响,以及塌方体阻碍下目标的隐蔽性,这些因素都将使得成像目标的回波数据无法满足成像要求。因此,在对目标回波进行成像处理之前,必须对回波数据进行处理,通过相关算法使回波数据满足理想的成像模型,最后聚焦方位向回波信息得到目标成像结果。为了提高穿透塌方体遮蔽目标成像的分辨率,并解决超宽带信号穿透塌方体成像得到方位向回波数据不足的问题,通过对传统的压缩感知成像算法进行分析介绍,结合井下具体成像环境,提出一种基于相位误差估计的CS成像算法对回波数据进行补偿。该算法的核心思想就是通过对回波数据计算得到相位误差,首先对回波信号的稀疏性进行验证,并构建目标信号的测量矩阵,利用CS成像算法对回波数据重构的同时对数据进行补偿,通过反复迭代误差估计,逐渐提高回波数据量和成像的质量。最后通过不同场景的仿真试验,验证所提算法在回波数据补偿问题上的有效性。

Electrolyte effects on recirculating dense bubbly flow: An experimental study using X-ray imaging

In this work, the effect of an electrolyte (up to 2 M of NaCl dissolved in water) on a homogeneous dense bubbly flow, in an airlift bubble column, is studied using nonintrusive techniques. X-ray and high-speed imaging are used to investigate the bubble size distribution, the local and the global gas-fraction profiles. The major effect of the electrolyte is the bubble size distribution at the fine-pore sparger, which is a consequence of the bubble coalescence inhibition promoted by the electrolyte. The bubble plume widening, the increase in overall gas fraction, and the onset of bubble recirculation in the column can all be explained by the bubble size reduction at the fine-pore spargers. As a result of the bubble size reduction, the overall role of the electrolyte is in a reduction of the driving force for the liquid recirculation. Furthermore, an accumulation of the small bubbles causes a layer of foam at the free surface, which is dynamic in nature and induces additional bubble recirculation.

Effects of cold plasma on the color parameters of Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis L.) using color imaging instrumentation and spectrophotometer

This research was conducted to evaluate the effects of cold atmospheric plasma treatment on the color of Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis L.) and also to compare the usage of the spectrophotometer vs the color imaging instrumentation for the evaluation of the treatment on the color parameters. The experiments were investigated at different treatment times of 1, 5, and 10 minutes and the voltage values of 17, 20, and 23 kV. Possible changes of color were evaluated by using CIE L*a*b* values obtained with HunterLab colorimeter and CIE L*a*b* values obtained with a digital still camera (DSC) using digital image processing (MATLAB software). The values of L*, a*, and b* of the samples were obtained using both the methods. The results revealed that the L*, a*, and b* values of the treated Hyssop samples changed with increasing the treatment time and the voltage applied. Evaluating the interaction effects revealed that there was a significant difference in the (−a^*/b^* ) ratio. In addition, the results showed that the effects of all variables on the color parameters were significantly different in the case of the DSC using digital image processing. However, these effects were not significantly different using HunterLab colorimeter except for time variable and interaction effects of a* and (−a^*/b^* ) ratio. The lightest green color and the maximum chlorophyll content loss were observed for 23 kV applied over 10 minutes. Based on the results, the digital image processing can be used as a practical tool to study the variations at the color of dried Hyssop leaves after cold plasma treatment.

Preparation of tunable full-color emission carbon dots and their optical applications in ions detection and bio-imaging

In this work, we synthesized a series of novel carbon dots (CDs) by using phenylenediamines (three isomers: o-phenylenediamine, m-phenylenediamine, and p-phenylenediamine) as starting materials via facile solvothermal approach. As-prepared CDs could emit bright blue, green, yellow, orange, and red light with relatively high PLQY, individually. Optical properties could be controlled by simply varying reaction parameters. The luminescent mechanism was investigated and analyzed in detail. Finally, the blue-emitting CDs and green-emitting CDs showed many appealing properties, such as high sensitivity (limit of detection = 4.52 and 3.50 nmol/L), quick response (<2 minutes), broad response window (0-70 nmol/L), and excellent selectivity for detecting Cr⁶⁺ and Al³⁺ cations, respectively. Thus, they have potential to be developed as the corresponding optical probes. While as-prepared orange-emitting CDs could be applied as a bio-imaging reagent due to its long-wavelength emission, relatively high PLQY, low toxicity, excellent water solubility, and good biocompatibility.
