摘要:
Indoor and Built Environment, Volume 32, Issue 10, Page 2034-2049, December 2023. <br/>This study evaluated the effect of ventilation rate and air supply angle of an air purifier using computational fluid dynamics to determine the dispersion of airborne COVID virus exhaled by an infected person. The risk of infection for an occupant was determined based on the virus concentration in the active area and accumulated particle dose within the breathing zone by varying the ventilation parameters. The air purifier was found to provide a local dilution and would block the development of an expiratory jet for a short time to reduce transmission risk. Compared to the case without an air purifier, the maximum reductions were 94.27% in the accumulated dose and 53.2% in the particle count concentration. In the breathing area, the larger air supply angle (90° > 60° > 30°) is better when the ventilation rate was 27.0 m3/h and 40.5 m3/h. Otherwise, 60° air supply angle is preferable where the ventilation rate was 54.0 m3/h. Assessing the results with the grey relational analysis revealed that the relational degree for particle count concentration was greater by varying the ventilation rate than by varying the air supply angle. However, the relational degree according to the accumulated dose was greater by varying the air supply angle than by increasing the ventilation rate. These findings may provide an important control strategy to effectively mitigate the risk of infection in a confined room by using an air purifier.

摘要:
The effective capture of iodine vapour, a potential threat of environment and human health, is crucial for efficiently managing nuclear waste gases. Herein, the adsorption property of iodine vapour on modified activated carbon fibers was investigated using adsorption experiment and simulation methods, to explain the adsorption mechanism at different scales. Preliminary results hint that the ideal adsorbent should have lower density, higher adsorption coefficient and taller poriness, and more pores between 1.6 and 1.9 nm. Compared with KOH modification, microwave modification can effectively improve the performance of activated carbon fibers for capturing iodine vapour.

摘要:
Radiation shielding concrete is one of the most used materials in the construction of nuclear power plants and will be subjected to high temperatures for a long time during its service life. This study aims to investigate deterioration of radiation shielding concrete with multiple heating at different temperatures. A microwave oven was used as a heating apparatus to simulate irradiation, and 200, 300, and 400 degrees C were selected as experimental cycle temperatures. The apparent characteristics, mass loss, splitting tensile strength, and gamma ray shielding properties of the commonly used magnetite shielding concrete were investigated. The results showed that the splitting tensile strength and gamma shielding performance of concrete were dramatically reduced at first heating. Then, as the heating times increased, the splitting tensile strength and gamma shielding properties of the concrete continued to deteriorate, and the higher the increase in heating temperature, the more severe the deterioration of the concrete. During the service period of radiation shielded concrete, the magnitude of temperature under the service conditions will affect the deterioration degree of concrete, and the continuous change of temperature will continuously lead to the deterioration of concrete.
摘要:
A new persimmon tannin-modified graphene oxide/chitosan microsphere (PGC) was prepared by the mixed crosslinking method, and the effective adsorption behavior of U(VI) in an aqueous solution was discussed. The study shows that at the temperature of 30 & DEG;C, pH of 5, time of 120 min, and the an initial uranium concentration of 10.00 mg/L, the maximum adsorption capacity of PGC microspheres for U(VI) reached 199.13 mg/g, with a removal rate of 98.2%. The adsorption process of U(VI) by PGC microspheres conforms to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Freundlich isothermal adsorption model. The adsorption mechanism of U(VI) by PGC microspheres is electrostatic interaction and chelation reaction. Meanwhile, PGC microspheres have excellent adsorption selectivity and recycling, and they have a good adsorption effect in the uranium treatment of rare earth real wastewater. Therefore, PGC microspheres can be used as a promising material to treat uranium-containing rare earth wastewater.
