A review of thin film electrolytes fabricated by physical vapor deposition for solid oxide fuel cells

The ohmic resistance in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) mainly comes from the electrolyte, which can be reduced by developing novel electrolyte materials with higher ionic conductivity and/or fabricating thin-film electrolytes. Among various kinds of thin-film fabrication technology, the physical vapor deposition (PVD) method can reduce the electrolyte thickness to a few micrometers and mitigate the issues associated with high-temperature sintering, which is necessary for wet ceramic methods. This review summarizes recent development progress in thin-film electrolytes fabricated by the PVD method, especially pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and magnetron sputtering. At first, the importance of the substrate surface morphology for the quality of the film is emphasized. After that, the fabrication of thin-film doped-zirconia and doped-ceria electrolytes is presented, then we provide a brief summary of the works on other types of electrolytes prepared by PVD. Finally, we have come to the summary and made perspectives.     

Thermodynamic performance analysis and environmental impact assessment of an integrated system for hydrogen and ammonia generation

A novel multigeneration plant that's using natural gas for power, hydrogen, ammonia, and hot water generation, is planned and analyzed, in the current paper. The suggested combined plant integrated with four sub-systems, which are the Brayton cycle, reheat Rankine cycle, the high-temperature steam electrolyzer for hydrogen production, and ammonia synthesis processes. Also, thermodynamic analysis and environmental impact assessment are conducted for the designed plant and sub-systems. Moreover, the sustainability index analysis of this proposed study is conducted. The effects of some important indicators on the performance and on the environmental impact of the modeled system and sub-processes are also studied. According to analyses results, it is noted that the energetic and exergetic efficiencies of the suggested system are 51.83% and 70.27%, respectively, and also the total CO₂ emission rate is 11.4 kg/kWh for the integrated plant. Furthermore, the total irreversibility rate is computed as 40007.68 kW, and furthermore, the combustion chamber has a maximum irreversibility rate with 20,033 kW, among the proposed plant components.

Effect of preparation method on physicochemical properties and catalytic performances of LaCoO_3 perovskite for CO oxidation

Perovskite oxides LaCoO_3 prepared by templating, co-precipitation and sol-gel method with different complexants were systematically characterized and its catalytic performances for CO oxidation were investigated. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry analysis and differential scanning calorimetry, N_2 physisorption, transmission electron microscopy, temperature program reduction of hydrogen, temperature program desorption of oxygen and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurement, results of which show that the properties of LaCoO_3, such as surface morphology, surface area, surface compositions, redox capability, oxygen vacancy, as well as the calcination temperature and formation mechanism, depend intimately on the preparation method. Catalytic tests indicate that the sample prepared by carbon templating method shows the best activity for CO oxidation, with full CO conversion obtained at 135 ℃. In particular, the catalyst can be activated and significant increase of activity can be obtained with the increase of reaction time. The cyclic and longterm stability of catalysts were discussed and compared.     

An agile model for the eco-design of electric vehicle Li-ion batteries

Numerous design choices need to be made at several levels when designing high-tech products: technology, processes, architecture, components, materials… and these choices need to be made in relation to the product life cycle with the corresponding experts for each stage of the life cycle. At the same time, to ensure product sustainability, a specific focus on the future potential environmental impacts is highly recommended. In this research, an agile model is proposed to help designers make decisions while monitoring environmental performance indicators of high-tech solutions. The concept of Critical Product Life Cycle Parameters had to be introduced to facilitate the eco-design of the final product. The approach is illustrated by the Electric Vehicle Li-Ion Batteries case study.

菲律宾矿业及相关产业投资前景简析

菲律宾是金属矿产资源较为丰富的国家,优势矿种铜储量9 000万t、镍480万t、金5 800t,镍矿产量在2 500万t/a以上,铜精矿28万t/a,金23t/a。镍矿、铜精矿、精炼铜和金是主要出口矿产,矿业出口占出口总额的2.3%。金属矿产勘查投入集中在铜矿、金矿领域,自2010年以来,新增金储量715t,铜1 000万t;非金属勘查集中在油气和煤炭。能源矿产产量不足,能源自给率仅为53%,每年需要大量进口石油和煤炭。矿业相关的电力、钢铁产能不足,限电情况普遍,2016年进口钢铁达790万t。通过分析矿业及相关产业供需,找出该国亟待投资的领域,本文认为中国企业在菲律宾镍矿加工、煤炭利用、能源勘探、电力、钢铁等领域有较好的投资前景。     

Isolation,purification, and antioxidant activities of polysaccharides from Ziziphus Jujuba cv. Muzao

In the present study, crude polysaccharides from Ziziphus Jujuba cv. Muzao were isolated and purified using DEAE cellulose-52 and Sephadex G-100 size-exclusion chromatography; four fractions were collected, namely GZMP-1, GZMP-2, GZMP-3, and GZMP-4. The molecular weights of these four fractions were measured to be 111.2, 95.1, 84.2, and 571.4 kDa, respectively, using high-performance gel permeation chromatography. Gas chromatography analysis of the monosaccharide composition confirmed that GZMP-1 was composed of rhamnose, arabinose, glucose, and galactose. Rhamnose, arabinose, and galactose were the main components present in GZMP-2 and GZMP-3, whereas GZMP-4 was composed of only rhamnose and arabinose. Scanning electron microscopy showed relatively smooth surfaces for GZMP-1 and GZMP-4, whereas GZMP-2 and GZMP-3 had more folds on their surfaces. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analyses indicated that GZMP-1 and ZMP mainly had α-type glycosidic linkages. The in vitro antioxidant activities of the polysaccharides revealed that jujube polysaccharides exhibit remarkable antioxidant activity, and can scavenge DPPH radical and OH radical in a concentration-dependent manner. The results of this work suggest that polysaccharides from Z. Jujuba cv. Muzao have potential to be used as functional food and in the development of natural antioxidant drug carriers.
