Absorption and desorption of liquid water by a superabsorbent polymer: Effect of polymer in the drying of the soil and the quality of certain plants

In this work, we were interested in the study of the kinetic behavior of the reaction of drying soil representing the Marrakesh region (south of Morocco) in the presence of an superabsorbent polymer. The presence of a polymer in the soil diminished the kinetic drying of the soil, which will have as an application a reduction in water loss in the process of irrigation. The presence of a polymer in the soil enables a complete modification of the kinetic regimes controlling the soil‐drying kinetic. We also realized the first study of the behavior of certain selected plants in the melange of a soil and a polymer. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 83: 234–243, 2002

Analysis of Technology Potential of a Metal-based Latent Heat Storage for Backup Process Steam Supply

An analysis of technology potential of a metal-based high temperature latent heat storage for the application of process steam backup for industrial parks in Germany was carried out. To investigate the integration of the storage into a process steam network, dynamic process simulations were performed. Furthermore, the analysis includes ecological and economical calculations for various fuel types of industrial power plants, plant sizes and auxiliary fuels. Basis of all calculations is an extensive research conducted on the industrial parks in Germany with a dedicated power plant and process steam utilization.     

Application of High Temperature Corrosion-Resistant Materials and Coatings Under Severe Corrosive Environment in Waste-to-Energy Boilers

Corrosion-resistant materials (CRMs) and coatings are key technologies to increase power generation efficiency and reduce maintenance in waste-to-energy (WTE) plants. Corrosion environment became severe as steam temperatures have increased. The steam condition of more than 400 °C/3.9 MPa became possible in WTE boilers by using highly durable corrosion-resistant coatings, such as thermal spray of Al/80Ni20Cr alloy, HVOF-sprayed NiCrSiB alloy, Alloy 625 weld overlay for waterwall tubes and also superheater tubes. Also, the use of 310S type stainless steels and high Cr-high Mo-Ni base and high Si-Cr-Ni-Fe alloys have progressed because of a better understanding of corrosion mechanisms. Furthermore, high durability coatings using cermet and ceramic materials were applied to high temperature superheaters. This paper describes the major developments and the application of CRMs and coating technologies in the last 30 years in WTE plants, the corrosion mechanisms of alloys, the deterioration mechanisms of spray coating layers, and future subjects for the development of corrosion-resistant materials and coatings.     

Analysis of failed nuclear plant components

Argonne National Laboratory has conducted analyses of failed components from nuclear power- gener-ating stations since 1974. The considerations involved in working with and analyzing radioactive compo-nents are reviewed here, and the decontamination of these components is discussed. Analyses of four failed components from nuclear plants are then described to illustrate the kinds of failures seen in serv-ice. The failures discussed are (1) intergranular stress- corrosion cracking of core spray injection piping in a boiling water reactor, (2) failure of canopy seal welds in adapter tube assemblies in the control rod drive head of a pressurized water reactor, (3) thermal fatigue of a recirculation pump shaft in a boiling water reactor, and (4) failure of pump seal wear rings by nickel leaching in a boiling water reactor.

基于L-系统的分形植物形态建模方法研究

植物生长过程中所表现出来的分形特征是虚拟植物形态发生的重要研究内容,而L-系统在表达具有分形特征的虚拟植物形态上具有明显的不可控特点,严重影响了L-系统的广泛应用。为了更好地研究自然界植物的分形特征,以植物分枝结构和几何形态的量化为前提,建立植物分形特征和L-系统的映射关系,应用改进的L-系统拟合分形植物的生长过程,并结合B-样条曲线动态控制分形植物的弯曲,生成丰富多样的、具有逼真分形效果的虚拟植物形态。

流域一、二级水生态分区技术及在辽河流域的应用

基于驱动力-压力-状态-影响-响应指标分析框架,提出水生态一、二级分区所适用的指标类别,在环境要素与水生态系统因子相关性分析和环境要素空间变异尺度分析基础上,建立了流域水生态一、二级分区指标体系。采用"自上而下"和"自下而上"相结合的分区方法,在辽河流域进行了水生态一、二级分区应用研究,将辽河流域划分为4个水生态一级分区和8个二级分区,并对各个水生态分区的特征进行了总结。辽河流域分区应用表明,水生态分区过程中仍然存在较大的主观因素,尤其是水生态二级分区边界的确定。     

引嫩入白供水工程对嫩江鱼类影响分析

引嫩入白供水工程从嫩江引水为白城提供农业灌溉用水、城市饮用水和生态用水.引水时间为4月-10月,枯水期不引水.工程取水对取水前后白沙滩断面水位变化主要集中在5月-7月农业用水期,水位下降将对鱼类的产卵造成一定的不利影响,同时工程取水对下游水生生态环境产生的影响.
