Effects of different metal corrosion inhibitors on hydrogen suppression and film formation with Mg–Zn alloy dust in NaCl solutions

To improve the safety of wet dust removal systems for processing magnesium-based alloys, a new method is proposed for preventing hydrogen generation. In this paper, hydrogen generation by Mg–Zn alloy dust was inhibited with six common metal corrosion inhibitors. The results showed that sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate was the best hydrogen inhibitor, while CeCl₃ enhanced hydrogen precipitation. The film-forming stability of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate was tested with different contents, temperatures, Cl^? concentrations and perturbation rates. The results showed that this inhibitor formed stable protective films on the surfaces of Mg–Zn alloy particles, and adsorption followed the Langmuir adsorption model.     

大豆预处理车间除尘风网及防燃、防爆措施

大豆预处理车间的粉尘分为干式粉尘和湿式粉尘。粉尘易引起设备故障和车间污染,在限定空间和条件下会发生粉尘阴燃、起火甚至爆炸，给安全生产带来隐患。针对这些问题，根据大豆预处理工艺和设备的特点设计除尘风网和工艺风网。对大豆预处理车间的除尘风网和工艺风网进行了介绍。为减少含尘气体排放，除尘风网采取循环风设计，对可能出现阴燃、起火的溜管、弯头、设备的下料接管积尘处，以及可能出现粉尘爆炸的筒仓进行防燃、防爆和抑爆处理。通过对4 000 t/d 大豆压榨厂含尘气体排放实测表明，预处理车间的风网运行稳定，实现了安全和清洁生产。     

综采工作面活性磁化水防尘技术研究

煤矿生产是环境较为封闭的井下作业，具有一定的特殊性，作业空间湿度高、生产环境复杂，其中粉尘是危害最大的因素之一，会对机器和人体造成不同程度的损害。粉尘的危害主要由两方面决定:煤尘能够燃烧，在浓度较高时还会爆炸；粉尘会危害人的身体健康。以平煤股份十矿-320 m水平己四采区东翼下段的己_15-16-24130工作面为研究对象，研究磁化水除尘的方法及原理，通过对比分析优选出活性磁化水添加剂，在该工作面试验后具有良好的除尘效果，大大增加了可见度、降低了空气中悬浮的煤尘。研究对该矿井其他工作面除尘工作具有指导意义。

四台矿均压硐室的优化与研究

四台矿属于近距离容易自燃煤层开采,综采工作面采用均压通风系统。在进风顺槽中布置的本巷均压硐室,风机吸风口距离均压风门近,吸风风流经过带式输送机,往往会造成均压风门漏风严重,均压硐室周围温度较高、煤尘较大。据此四台矿优化均压硐室布置方式,采用独立均压硐室代替先前的本巷均压硐室。对优化前后的数据进行研究分析,得出独立均压硐室的应用在减少风门漏风量,降低温度,抑制煤尘方面均有很大改善,实践证明了采用独立均压硐室的可行性及优点。     

Extensive evaluation and classification of low-cost dust sensors in laboratory using a newly developed test method

An extensive evaluation of low-cost dust sensors was performed using an exponentially decaying particle concentration. A total of 264 sensors including 27 sensors with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and 237 sensors with laser lighting sources were tested. Those tested sensors were classified into 4 groups based on the deviation from the reference data obtained by a reference instrument. The response linearities of all the tested samples for PM₁, PM_2.5, and PM₁₀ were in excellent agreement with the reference instrument, except a few samples. For the measurements of PM₁ and PM_2.5, the lighting source, that is, LED or laser, did not show any significant difference in overall sensor performance. However, LED-based sensors did not perform well for PM₁₀ measurements. The 32, 24, and 16% of all the tested sensors for PM₁, PM_2.5, and PM₁₀ measurement, respectively, are in the category of Class 1 (reference instrument reading ± 20%) requirement. The performance of the low-cost dust sensors for PM₁₀ measurement was relatively less satisfactory.

Household endotoxin reduction in the Louisa Environmental Intervention Project for rural childhood asthma

Endotoxin exacerbates asthma. We designed the Louisa Environmental Intervention Project (LEIP) and assessed its effectiveness in reducing household endotoxin and improving asthma symptoms in rural Iowa children. Asthmatic school children (N = 104 from 89 homes) of Louisa and Keokuk counties in Iowa (aged 5-14 years) were recruited and block-randomized to receive extensive (education + professional cleaning) or educational interventions. Environmental sampling collection and respiratory survey administration were done at baseline and during three follow-up visits. Mixed-model analyses were used to assess the effect of the intervention on endotoxin levels and asthma symptoms in the main analysis and of endotoxin reduction on asthma symptoms in exploratory analysis. In the extensive intervention group, dust endotoxin load was significantly reduced in post-intervention visits. The extensive compared with the educational intervention was associated with significantly decreased dust endotoxin load in farm homes and less frequent nighttime asthma symptoms. In exploratory analysis, dust endotoxin load reduction from baseline was associated with lower total asthma symptoms score (Odds ratio: 0.52, 95% confidence interval: 0.29-0.92). In conclusion, the LEIP intervention reduced household dust endotoxin and improved asthma symptoms. However, endotoxin reductions were not sustained post-intervention by residents.     

Experimental and computational study on the separation performance of an electrostatic precipitator with curved transvers collecting plates

Aiming at the problems of low collection efficiency of fine particulate matter and large area occupied by existing electrostatic precipitators (ESP), a new type of horizontal electrode ESP is proposed. It has the advantages of accelerating turbulent coalescence, increasing the effective dust collecting area and increasing the particle driving speed. The performance of the new type of ESP is systematic studied through simulation and experiment at the same time, and the results matches well. By comparing the dust removal effect of the horizontal electrode ESP and the conventional ESP, it can be concluded that the horizontal electrode ESP has a better dust removal efficiency, and can still maintain a better dust removal effect under high air velocity. The dust removal efficiency of new ESP can reach above 98% under the experimental conditions.
