Anisotropy is a basic property of single crystals. Dissimilar facets/surfaces have different geometric and electronic structure that results in dissimilar functional properties. Several case studies unambiguously demonstrated that the gas sensing activity of metal oxides is determined by the nature of surfaces exposed to ambient gas. Accordingly, a control over crystal morphology, i.e. over the angular relationships, size and shape of faces in a crystal, is required for the development of better sensors with increased selectivity and sensitivity in the chemical determination of gases. The first step toward this nanomorphological control of the gas sensing properties is the design and synthesis of well-defined nanocrystals which are uniform in size, shape and surface structure. These materials possess the planes of the symmetrical set {hkl} and must therefore behave identically in chemical reactions and adsorption processes. Because of these characteristics, the form-controlled nanocrystals are ideal candidates for fundamental studies of mechanisms of gas sensing which should involve (i) gas sensing measurements on specific surfaces, (ii) their atomistic/quantum chemical modelling and (ii) spectroscopic information obtained on same surfaces under operation conditions of sensors. 相似文献

The paper describes an approach to apply the formal technique of model checking to the verification of logic controllers within the safety analysis of processing plants. In order to investigate plant safety in an early design phase in which only basic information is available, we set up plant and controller models in a qualitative and modular fashion. In a first step, the computer-controlled plant is partitioned into functional units, named modules, and the communication between different modules is represented graphically in a so-called process control event diagram (PCED). The PCED can be transformed into a formal model in which the behaviour of each module is described in terms of logical expressions for the modules’ input, state and output variables. Based on the formal model, the method of model checking can be applied to determine algorithmically whether the system fulfils a set of given safety requirements. Specifically, we use the tool symbolic model verifier (SMV) to determine whether the plant can reach states that are, in some sense, critical for the plant operation. The whole approach is illustrated by application to an industrial computer-controlled tube reactor. 相似文献

A new method for the generation of control steps in batch processes is presented in this paper. One of the AI techniques, namely, the key word analysis technique is used to process the master recipe and the corresponding equipment units. The control steps are created according to the process information specified in the master recipe and the properties of the existing equipment unit. The aim is to unambiguously specify the control steps using a set of basic control instructions from which the actual control code could be created. 相似文献

Synthesizing a set of operating procedures for the safe and efficient transient operation of chemical plants is a difficult problem owing to the enormous number of possible combinations of actions in a typical plant. In most current industrial plant design practice, there are no formal methods for systematically transforming process specifications into operating procedures for the plant operators and into sequence control instructions for the control computers. There is much scope for a formalized computer-based procedure synthesis methodology to assist the design engineer/plant operator with both the formulation and assessment of procedures off-line and, eventually, with the on-line problem of procedure synthesis in response to unexpected situations
A recently developed approach for operating procedure synthesis for multipurpose batch plants is considered. The modelling formalism used includes the separate definition of process operations, as State Task Networks, and of physical plant, at the level of detail of a piping and instrumentation diagram. In this paper, a subgoaling procedure is developed using the State Task Network representation which decomposes the procedure synthesis goals into simpler subgoals by means of an efficient Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) technique. Detailed control sequences are then generated for each subgoal using a set of rules and algorithms specific for each type of subgoal. The procedure sequences thus generated are validated by simulation on a plant model with checking of physical and operational constraints at each new plant state. We have found that this hierarchical approach to the procedure synthesis problem greatly reduces the problem complexity
The usefulness of the general approach and of the subgoaling procedure in particular are demonstrated through a multiproduct batch plant example. 相似文献

An important aspect of solvent extraction processes rests in the ability to effect a satisfactory separation of the phases on completion of extraction. In previous work the solvent extraction of bitumen from Alberta oil-sands has been described in detail. This work extends the study to describe the effect of changes in the extraction process on a subsequent separation step. A comparison is drawn between a conventional screening operation and a separation based on the spherical agglomeration process. The results show that in order to achieve an optimum overall process the conditions in the extraction mill must be carefully selected. 相似文献

Melt crystallization – Theoretical presumptions and technical limitations. The fundamentals of the design of melt crystallization processes on cooled surfaces are presented. Determination of the energy requirement is the essential point. During each freezing step a multiple of the heat of solidification must be removed and must be re-introduced during the subsequent melting step. Consequently, discontinuous processes of this nature can only compete with other thermal separation techniques – in which a continuous countercurrent operation can be realised – if the plant is well designed and the process is precisely controlled. 相似文献

The synthesis of a real-time diagnostic expert system to monitor plant performance and identify faults in the event of process failure as well as signal potential failures is described. The crucial features which have been included are system reliability, use of dynamic trends in data and parameters to identify problem as well as the ability to handle complex knowledge. The emphasis here is on how a dynamic simulator is used to incorporate a learning algorithm based on a fuzzy set covering method for formulating a knowledge model of the operational characteristics, which enables debugging and testing of the system to be carried out continuously. The procedure is illustrated by reference to the operation of refinery crude oil distillation columns. 相似文献

In recent years, process intensification (PI) has attracted considerable academic interest as a potential means for process improvement, to meet the increasing demands for sustainable production. A variety of intensified operations developed in academia and industry creates a large number of options to potentially improve the process but to identify the set of feasible solutions for PI in which the optimal can be found takes considerable resources. Hence, a process synthesis tool to achieve PI would potentially assist in the generation and evaluation of PI options. Currently, several process design tools with a clear focus on specific PI tasks exist. Therefore, in this paper, the concept of a general systematic framework for synthesis and design of PI options in hierarchical steps through analyzing an existing process, generating PI options in a superstructure and evaluating intensified process options is presented. For each step, different tools and methods will be needed. In this paper, a knowledge base tool storing and retrieving necessary information/data about intensified processes/equipments has been highlighted including metrics for performance evaluation. The application of the main concepts is illustrated through an example involving the operation of a membrane reactor. 相似文献

The rapid growth of multiple parallel synthesis in our laboratories has created a demand for a robust, easily accessed automated system for solution-phase reaction work-up, since the manual work-up of large numbers of small-scale reactions is both time-consuming and tedious, and is a rate limiting step in the generation of large numbers of compounds for test. Work-up in chemical organic synthesis consists of a series of post-reaction operations designed using differential chemical properties to remove excess reagent or starting material, reagent products and, where possible reaction by-products. Careful consideration of post-reaction operations as a clean-up step can obviate the requirement for purification. Generally, work-up can be resolved into four operations: filtration, solvent addition (dilution, trituration), washing and separation (partition) and it is the selection and ordering of these four basic operations that constitutes a chemical work-up. Following the proven success of centralized Zymate robotic systems in the compilation, execution and work-up of complex reaction sequences, a centralized chemical work-up service has been in operation for over 12 months. It now seemed prudent that the needs of multiple parallel synthesis would be better served by the development of a compact, automated system, capable of operating in a standard chemistry laboratory fume-hood. A Zymark BenchMate platform has been configured to perform the four basic operations of chemical solution work-up. A custom-built filtration station, incorporating an integrated tipping facility for the sample tube has also been developed. Compilation of each work-up is through a set of Visual Basic procedure screens, each dedicated to a particular work-up scenario. Methods are compiled at the chemist's own PC and transferred to the BenchMate via a diskette. 相似文献

This work summarizes the most relevant facets of the current knowledge of the principal catalytic processes involved in one carbon-atom conversions. Without doubt, natural gas (or methane) chemical conversion into high molecular weight hydrocarbons via oxidative coupling (OCM) or partial oxidation into C1 oxygenates (POM) currently represents a great chemical and technological challenge for petrochemistry. Although the catalyst systems and the basic principles of the two types of processes are well known, a greater effort is needed towards the development of more efficient and stable catalysts under the severe operation conditions imposed by the reaction itself, as well as the need for suitable reaction design to minimize the extent of the homogeneous reaction. The alternative process is to obtain synthesis gas (CO/H2) in a first step through steam reforming followed by a second Fischer-Tropsch hydrogenation step. However, the unfavorable energetic balance of the reforming step and the absence of selective catalysts in the latter to obtain a narrow molecular weight distribution currently leads to compromise in solutions. Among these, the high molecular weight alcohol synthesis and the recently developed Shell middle distillate synthesis (SMDS) appear to be very attractive. Of no less importance are the reactions which incorporate a CO molecule into alcohols or olefins via carbonylations and hydroformylations. Within this framework, the use of organometallic complexes anchored to functionalized polymeric matrices initiated a very intense research activity, particularly in the development of stable catalysts. 相似文献
