Production of nanoparticles of copper compounds by anodic dissolution of copper in organic solvents

The anodic behaviour of copper was investigated in ethanol solution containing LiClO₄, LiCl electrolyte and water. The type of electrolyte and the water content influences the mechanism of the anodic process and the formation of anodic products. In LiClO₄ electrolyte the dissolution of copper is related to the oxidation of Cu(I) to Cu(II). In solutions of LiCl the etching of copper begins with the creation of soluble complexes of Cu(I) with chloride ions and solvent molecules. At potentials above 0.4 V the formation of alkoxides was observed in both solutions, characterized by a yellow tint. On the other hand, above 0.8 V (i.e. above the equilibrium potential of alcohol oxidation) copper dissolution is accompanied by the formation of a blue colloidal suspension of Cu (II) copper salt. Anodic etching of copper in solutions containing 3% H₂O at potentials higher than 0.4 V leads to the formation of colloidal suspension of copper oxide nanoparticles.

ESTIMATION OF VAPOR PRESSURES OF ORGANIC NITROGEN AND SULFUR COMPOUNDS BY A GROUP-CONTRIBUTION METHOD

The group-contribution method for vapor pressures of hydrocarbons and organic compounds containing nitrogen or sulfur, based on the kinetic theory of fluids, is revised and extended to include new groups containing nitrogen or sulfur. Good representation is obtained for vapor pressure data in the region 1.30-270 kPa. The method may be used to estimate vapor pressures and enthalpies of vaporization for those organic fluids containing nitrogen or sulfur, where no experimental data are available.     

Electrochemical insertion of lithium ions into disordered carbons derived from reduced graphite fluoride

Both covalent (obtained by direct fluorination at high temperature) and semi-ionic carbon fluorides (synthesized at room temperature) were reduced in order to obtain disordered carbons containing very small content of fluorine and different physical properties according to the reduction treatment (chemical, thermal or electrochemical). After a physical characterization (X-ray diffraction, electron spin resonance and FT-IR spectroscopies), the electrochemical behaviours of the pristine carbon fluorides and of the treated samples were investigated during the insertion of lithium using liquid carbonate-based electrolytes (LiClO₄-EC/PC, 50:50%, v/v). Both galvanostatic and voltammetric modes were performed and revealed that the voltage profiles and the capacities differed according to the starting material and the reduction treatment. Semi-ionic carbon fluoride treated in F₂ atmosphere for 2 h at 150 °C and then chemically reduced in KOH exhibits high reversible capacities (the reversible capacity is 530 mAh g⁻¹ in the second cycle); in this case, the voltage profiles show a large flat portion at potentials lower than 0.3 V which is attributed to the insertion/deinsertion of lithium ions between the small graphene sheets and/or the absorption of pseudo metallic lithium into the microporosity of the sample. Nevertheless, a part of the lithium ions are removed at potentials higher than 0.5 V versus Li⁺/Li limiting the useful capacity.

Methane activation over La2xY2-2xO3 (0 ⩽x ⩽ 1) catalysts

The influence of the structure on the catalytic methane activation coupling activity has been shown for La_2x Y_2–2x O₃ (0 x 1) compounds. A perovskite structure leads to total oxidation (CO, CO₂) whereas a bixbyite structure results in C₂ hydrocarbon formation. This change in selectivity is interpreted in terms of the difference in oxygen environment of lanthanum in the two stuctures.     

Effect of catalysts in the quality of syngas and by-products obtained by co-gasification of coal and wastes. 1. Tars and nitrogen compounds abatement

The aim of this work is to analyse the possibility of using co-gasification technology to process coal mixed with wastes to take profit of its energy content and at the same time to minimize the environmental impact associated with the use of wastes and to diminish the costs of flue gas treatment. The addition to coal of different types of materials, like: pine based waste, petcoke and polyethylene (PE), was not found to give rise to any operational problems, regarding both the feeding system and gasification process and led to higher energy conversions, however, the gas presented higher tars and hydrocarbons content. Several catalysts were tested, such as, dolomite, olivine, nickel and magnesium oxides, zinc oxides and cobalt and molybdenum oxides. Catalyst action was analysed in tars release and also in ammonia compounds reduction. The presence of catalysts allowed increasing hydrogen release, whilst there was a decrease in hydrocarbons and tars contents. A nickel-magnesium oxide was the catalyst that led to the highest reduction in hydrocarbons and tars. This catalyst also led to the lowest NH₃ content in the fuel gas produced, due to the catalyst efficiency in NH₃ destruction.     

Heat-release mechanism in ammonium dinitramide flame

To verify the adequacy of various models of heat release in ammonium dinitramide flame to real processes, chemical processes in products of thermal decomposition at a pressure of 10 torr and in ammonium dinitramide [ADN; NH₄N(NO₂)₂] flame at a pressure of 0.4 to 60 atm are numerically simulated. The calculations are performed on the basis of a detailed kinetic mechanism and boundary conditions correlated with experimental data, thermodynamic properties, and chemical composition of ADN. The kinetic mechanism includes submechanisms that describe high-temperature chemical processes in NH₃/N₂O/NO/NO₂/HNO₂/HNO₃ and NH₃/HN(NO₂)₂ mixtures, and the global stages of aerosol decomposition. Based on calculated and experimental data, the role of dinitraminic acid HN(NO₂)₂, aerosols, and ADN vapor in heat release in the ADN flame zone adjacent to the burning surface is estimated. The calculations predict that the main source of heat release in the cold flame zone at p ≥ 3 atm is dinitraminic acid incoming through the channel of dissociative evaporation ADN_liq → NH₃ + HN(NO₂)₂ from the burning surface. In the high-temperature flame zone, heat release is caused by the reaction that occurs in the NH₃/N₂O/NO/NO₂/HNO₂/HNO₃ mixture. At moderate pressures, the high-temperature and low-temperature zones are separated by an induction zone. The stage governing production of the OH radical, which plays an important role in combustion, in the induction zone is the reaction HNO₃ + M → OH + NO₂ + M. Because of a high activation energy of the stage, small temperature perturbations in the induction zone at low pressures lead to a finite change in the stand-off distance between the high-temperature flame zone and the burning surface. Therefore, small temperature perturbations in the induction zone, which are caused by admixtures in the sample or by heat transfer between the reacting gas and the ambient medium, may be responsible for disagreement between various experimental data and between experimental and calculated data on the stand-off distance between the high-temperature flame zone and the burning surface. In numerical calculations, the position of the high-temperature zone is effectively controlled by varying rate constants of elementary stages within admissible limits. __________ Translated from Fizika Goreniya i Vzryva, Vol. 43, No. 5, pp. 64–76, September–October, 2007.
