Contributions to the Ohmic Drop in the Electrolysis of ZnCl2 in a Molten Chloride Electrolyte

The electrowinning of zinc from zinc chloride with a molten chloride electrolyte was investigated. The electrolysis of zinc chloride shows ohmic limitations. The energy consumption is to a large extent determined by the anodic reaction, the evolution of chlorine. The chlorine gas plume was visualised in a see-through furnace and images were analysed to determine the plume angle. This parameter serves as an input parameter for a model to determine the ohmic contributions of the electrolyte, the plume and a layer of chlorine bubbles sticking to the anode, as well as the plume velocity. The results indicate that the major contribution (60%) to the ohmic drop is due to a stagnant layer of bubbles growing and sticking to the anode, thereby decreasing the effective anode area by coverage. The plume velocity influences coverage characteristics to some extent, which influences the ohmic drop.

Fine coal desulphurization by leaching with bromine containing hydrobromic acid

Sulphur extraction from coal by leaching with bromine-containing aqueous hydrobromic acid has been investigated in the temperature range from ambient to 120 °C. This procedure was found to be selective for the removal of high levels of sulphate and pyritic sulphur within a few minutes of leaching, while no significant reduction of the organic sulphur could be observed. Leaching led to an appreciable reduction of the ash yield and the up-take of substantial quantities of bromine. The bromine can be removed as hydrogen bromide by thermal treatment under nitrogen, without significant loss of volatile matter; for reduction of the bromine level to below 0.1 wt%, treatment for at least 1 h at ≈ 500 °C was needed.

在二辛基磷酸钠的微乳液中金属盐的最大含量

测算了二(2-乙基己基)磷酸钠(NaDEHP)或二(正辛基)磷酸钠(NaDOP)、正辛醇，正辛烷、水和金属盐(CoSO4、NiSO4、FeCl2、CuCl2和CaCl2等)组成的均匀单相微乳液中金属盐水溶液的极限增溶量(Vlim)和金属盐的最大含量(Smax)。相同条件下，NaDOP体系中的Vlim和Smax都比NaDEHP体系巾的高得多，这是因为NaDOP中的正辛基的空间位阻小。     

Groundwater as a source and pathway for road salt contamination of surface water in the Lake Ontario Basin: A review

In Ontario, there is limited comprehensive research regarding the contribution of chloride in groundwater to surface water systems. The delivery of chloride via groundwater can contribute to the degradation of the Great Lakes and their tributaries. Thus, this review intends to fill or identify knowledge gaps regarding assessing groundwater as a potential source of road salt, the single largest use of salt in urban cold region environments, contamination to surface water by synthesizing existing groundwater chloride research in the Lake Ontario Basin. Knowledge regarding source characterization, properties, pathways, and impacts of chloride in the environment is essential to evaluate the contribution of chloride via groundwater. Past groundwater chloride research in the basin is primarily concentrated in highly urbanized areas and has identified localized trends of increasing groundwater chloride concentrations in these regions; however, few investigations have been conducted in varying land uses (e.g., rural or less urbanized watersheds) or at sufficient temporal and/or spatial scales. Significant chloride accumulation is occurring in watersheds and aquifers within the basin. Concentrations are expected to increase until equilibrium is obtained, thus resulting in sustained yearlong elevated concentrations in tributaries. Recently, chloride loading to Lake Ontario has increased significantly, with groundwater inputs having the potential to support long-term increases in chloride concentrations in the lake. However, few studies have evaluated the explicit contribution via groundwater to Lake Ontario, and therefore a knowledge gap continues to exist. We provide a synthesis of additional research priorities to better understand the magnitude of groundwater chloride issues in the basin.     

分子内敏化鎓盐的合成及光敏性研究

二芳基碘鎓盐和三芳基硫鎓盐是阳离子聚合的光引发剂和光敏产酸物,但他们在300nm以上的光吸收很低,限制了对紫外光的利用效率。为解决此问题,本文合成了一些新的碘鎓盐和硫鎓盐,并用凝胶时间方法考察了它们的光引发效率。实验结果表明,2-苯硫基甲基,2′,4′-二甲基二苯碘鎓盐和9-蒽丙基,二苯基硫鎓盐具有特别高的光引发效率,这归之于光照时这些鎓盐发生了分子内电荷转移反应,即发生了分子内敏化。9-蒽丙基二苯硫鎓盐分子中的蒽基(An)是电子给体也是敏化基团,光照时可发生如下反应:     

Structural study of hexane-soluble products from hydroliquefaction of three Yallourn brown coal lithotypes over molten salt catalysts

The hexane-soluble fractions of hydroliquefied products from three Yallourn brown coal lithotypes have been separated into five fractions by combined silica-alumina packed column chromatography. Analyses of various fractions by g.c.-m.s. permitted the identification of ≈50 components in the saturate fraction and 40 components in the diaromatic fraction, together with 30 components in the monoaromatics. The components identified were quite similar among hexane-soluble portions of all three lithotypes. A marked predominance of even carbon number alkane (C₂₃-C₂₉) was observed in the hydrocarbon fractions from pale lithotype over $\text{ZnCl}{}_2\text{KCl}$, and medium light lithotype over both pure ZnCl₂ and $\text{ZnCl}{}_2\text{KCl}$. However, medium dark lithotype over both melt catalysts produced a saturate fraction with an odd carbon number(C₂₂-C₂₈) preference. Based on spectral methods, Soxhlet extracts obtained from untreated lithotypes (hexane and benzene solubles) were characterized as complex mixtures of higher molecular weight(300–1000) aliphatic hydrocarbons, which were supposed to be a precursor of the saturates produced from the corresponding lithotype in the catalytic hydroliquefaction.
