摘要:
A novel route for the synthesis of 3-picoline from glycerol via liquid phase reaction under mild condition, using microwave irradiation, had been well established. The heating mode had a profound effect on the yield of 3-picoline. The formation of 3-picoline could be promoted significantly by microwave heating, however, only very little amount of 3-picoline was generated by conventional heating under the reaction conditions employed in this study. Influencing factors were systemically investigated on the basis of a HAc-catalyzed under microwave irradiation. Additionally, a lot of heterogeneous catalysts were screened. It was found that as high as a 71% yield of 3-picoline was obtained with the mass ratio of pure glycerol/ammonium acetate/acetic acid/TiO2 = 1/3/10/0.2 at 373 K, after only 20 min of microwave irradiation. A catalyst pair (HAc and TiO2) exhibited better catalytic performance relative to other catalysts in this work. Accordingly, microwave assistance together with the catalysts achieved effective transformation of glycerol to 3-picoline under mild conditions. The related plausible reaction mechanisms were also proposed.

摘要:
Extraction of uranium from uranium tailings by oxidative leaching with hydrogen peroxide (H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf>) was studied. The effects of various extraction factors were investigated to optimize the dissolution conditions, as well as to determine the leaching kinetic parameters. The behavior of H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf>in the leaching process was determined through scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX) and x-ray diffraction analysis of leaching residues. Results suggest that H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf>can significantly improve uranium extraction by decomposing the complex gangue structures in uranium tailings and by enhancing the reaction rate between uranium phases and the leaching agent. The extraction kinetics expression was changed from 1 − 3(1 − α)<sup>2/3</sup> + 2(1 − α) = K<inf>0</inf>(H<inf>2</inf>SO<inf>4</inf>)<sup>−0.14903</sup>(S/L)<sup>−1.80435</sup>(R<inf>o</inf>)<sup>0.20023</sup>e<sup>−1670.93/T</sup>t (t ≥ 5) to 1 − 3(1 − α)<sup>2/3</sup> + 2(1 − α) = K<inf>0</inf>(H<inf>2</inf>SO<inf>4</inf>)<sup>0.01382</sup>(S/L)<sup>−1.83275</sup>(R<inf>o</inf>)<sup>0.25763</sup>e<sup>−1654.59/T</sup>t (t ≥ 5) by the addition of H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf>in the leaching process. The use of H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf>in uranium leaching may help in extracting uranium more efficiently and rapidly from low-uranium-containing ores or tailings. ©2016, The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society.

摘要:
This paper highlights significant findings from focusing on developing a sustainable lightweight aggregate (LWA) concrete, which replaced Portland cement partially with municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (MSWI FA) and all of the conventional coarse aggregate with LWA sintered by MSWI FA, shale, and sludge. A series of four experiments, differing in dosage of MSWI FA and aggregate, were conducted for this project. The results of this study generally showed that appropriate amount of MSWI FA substitution for cement has no significantly lowered the compressive strengths of LWA concrete, while it can lower the oven-dry density and the thermal conductivity. The optimum performance of LWA concrete (after 28 days of curing) is as follows: (1) slump flow of 700 mm, (2) compressive strength of 30.14 MPa, (3) dry apparent density of 1.66 g/cm3, (4) thermal conductivity of 0.73 W (m K)−1; the mixture ratio of LWA, fly ash, cement, and fine sand is 3.0: 0.1: 0.9: 2.0 based on dry weight. Meanwhile, the results of leaching test are much lower than the concentration limits of hazardous constituents of hazardous waste identification standard (GB/T 5083.3-2007) and landfill standard (GB16889-2008).

摘要:
The current driven by combined electron cyclotron wave (ECW) and high harmonic fast wave is investigated using the GENRAY/CQL3D package. It is shown that no significant synergetic current is found in a range of cases with a combined ECW and fast wave (FW). This result is consistent with a previous study [Harvey et al., in Proceedings of IAEA TCM on Fast Wave Current Drive in Reactor Scale Tokamaks (Synergy and Complimentarily with LHCD and ECRH), Arles, France, IAEA, Vienna, 1991]. However, a positive synergy effect does appear with the FW in the lower hybrid range of frequencies. This positive synergy effect can be explained using a picture of the electron distribution function induced by the ECW and a very high harmonic fast wave (helicon). The dependence of the synergy effect on the radial position of the power deposition, the wave power, the wave frequency, and the parallel refractive index is also analyzed, both numerically and physically.

摘要:
The deactivation and regeneration of the ZSM-5-based catalyst was investigated in the reaction of acrolein diethyl acetal and ammonia toward pyridine and 3-picoline. The coke was the main reason leading to deactivation for all the tested catalysts, and it was basically combusted at high temperature under the air and water streams in order to recover the initial catalytic performance. The best catalyst through the reaction-regeneration treatment could effectively promote the formation of pyridine and 3-picoline. The results showed that the total yield of pyridine and 3-picoline was raised above 20% while the reaction was operated the 10th reaction-regeneration cycle relative to the 1st reaction at TOS (time on stream) = 1–3 h. The catalysts were characterized by means of XRD, N<inf>2</inf>-physisorption, FT-IR and NH<inf>3</inf>-TPD techniques. By relating the performance and structure of the catalyst, it was found that the dealumination and the residual coke were responsible for boosting the catalytic activity after several reaction-regeneration cycles. The dealumination generated more mesopores and less acidity while the residual coke resulted in lowering the acidity. The relationship between the catalyst and the regeneration was well established. ©2016 Elsevier Inc.

摘要:
Mineral sequestration of CO2 is considered to be the safest mechanism in the long-term storage of CO2 in deep saline aquifers. This study aims to investigate the effect of feldspar and salinity on the mineral sequestration capacity of CO2 in deep high-salinity brine aquifers by taking Jiangling Depression of Jianghan Basin for instance. Numerical simulation on the long-term geochemical reaction and transport was performed by taking TOUGHREACT as the simulation tool. Simulation results indicate that the effect of feldspar on the mineral trapping capacity of CO2 does not depend on the total content of feldspar, but depends on feldspar type and relative content. With Mg-rich minerals such as chlorite or dolomite present, the mineral composition abundant in K-feldspar is less favorable for the mineral sequestration capacity of CO2 for the reason that a large amount of illite precipitates, consuming a lot of Al3+ in the aqueous solution, thereby limiting the precipitation of dawsonite, especially for the high-temperature sedimentary environment. In addition, the effect of salinity on the mineral sequestration capacity of CO2 represents two aspects: one for the longer migration distance due to the lower solubility of higher salinity and the other for CO2 mineral trapping capacity per 1m3 medium which is not in simple decreased with salinity, depending on K-feldspar present or not. For the mineral composition with K-feldspar present, CO2 mineral trapping capacity decreases with salinity, while with albite instead of K-feldspar, it increases with salinity owing to more precipitation of dawsonite. © 2016, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.

摘要:
Concrete has a proven ability to attenuate gamma rays and neutrons without compromising structural property;therefore, it is widely used as the primary shielding material in many nuclear facilities. Recently, there is a tendency toward using various additives to enhance the shielding properties of these concrete mixtures. However, most of these additives being used either pose hygiene hazards or require special handling processes. It would be ideal if environmentally friendly additives were available for use. The bismuth oxide (Bi<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>) additive shows promise in various shielding applications due to its proven radiation attenuation ability and environmentally friendly nature. To the best of our knowledge, however, Bi<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>has never been used in concrete mixtures. Therefore, for this research, we fabricated the Bi<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>-based concrete mixtures by adding Bi<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>powder in the ordinary concrete mixture. Concrete mixtures with lead oxide (PbO) additives were used for comparison. Radiation shielding parameters like the linear attenuation coefficients (LAC) of all these concrete mixtures showing the effects of the Bi<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>additions are presented. The mechanical performances of concrete mixtures incorporated with Bi<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>additive were also investigated. It suggested that the concrete mixture containing 25% Bi<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>powder (B5 in this study) provided the best shielding capacity and mechanical performance among other mixes. It has a significant potential for application as a structural concrete where radiological protection capability is required. ©2016 Elsevier Ltd

摘要:
In this study, a one-dimensional steady-state mathematical model of radon transport in fragmented uranium ore was established according to Fick's law and radon transfer theory in an air-water interface. The model was utilized to obtain an analytical solution for radon concentration in the air-water, two-phase system under steady state conditions, as well as a corresponding radon exhalation rate calculation formula. We also designed a one-dimensional experimental apparatus for simulating radon diffusion migration in the uranium ore with various water levels to verify the mathematical model. The predicted results were in close agreement with the measured results, suggesting that the proposed model can be readily used to determine radon concentrations and exhalation rates in fragmented uranium ore with varying water levels.

摘要:
The kinetic parameters for the co-combustion of municipal solid waste incineration fly ash, sawdust, and shale have been determined by a sync analyzer, aiming to simulate the manufacture of lightweight aggregates process. Experiments were carried out with about each 10-mg samples at different heating rates in air and argon atmospheres, respectively. The results indicate that behaviors of the mixture can be broadly divided into four separate events. The total mass loss reached the maximum at 20 K·min<sup>-1</sup>. There appears to be no unanimous formula of the degree of the total mass loss in different gas atmospheres. ©Copyright ©Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

摘要:
The electron cyclotron wave (ECW) current drive (CD) for the HL-2A tokamak is investigated numerically with a new ray-tracing and Fokker-Planck code. The code is benchmarked with other well-tested linear and quasilinear codes and is then used to study the electron cyclotron current drive on the HL-2A tokamak. The wave propagation, power deposition, and driven-current profiles are presented. The effect of electron trapping is also assessed. It is found that quasilinear effects are negligible at the present ECW power levels and that when both waves are injected at an angle of 20° on the plasma equatorial plane, the CD efficiency for the HL-2A saturates at ∼0.029 × 1020 A/W/m2 and ∼0.020 × 1020 A/W/m2 for the 0.5 MW/68 GHz first harmonic ordinary (O1) and 1 MW/140 GHz second harmonic extraordinary (X2) modes, respectively. The effects of the plasma density, temperature, and wave-launching position on the driven current are also investigated analytically and numerically.

摘要:
This study investigated the chromatographic characteristics of irradiated vitamins and their feasibility for dose measurement by using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Water-soluble vitamins in the B family, including thiamine hydrochloride (TH), riboflavin (RF) and nicotinic acid (NA), were used for comparative study. The results showed that riboflavin was sensitive to irradiation, and the content changes of RF were linearly correlated with irradiation doses. Combining the analyses of ultraviolet and fluorescence spectra, the suitable application range for dose determination was confirmed from 100 to 2000 Gy; moreover, the influencing factors were further discussed. The content of RF could maintain good stability before and after irradiation under low-light conditions. These characteristics make it possible for RF to be used as a material for dose measurement. In addition, this work also provides references for irradiation nutrition research due to the favourable separation and analysis characteristics of HPLC. © 2014 The Royal Society of Chemistry.

摘要:
A three dimensional bounce-averaged Fokker-Planck (FP) numerical code has been newly developed based on fully implicit iterative solving method, and relativistic effect is also included in the code. The code has been tested against various benchmark cases: Ohmic conductivity in the presence of weak Ohmic electric field, runaway losses of electrons in the presence of strong Ohmic electric field, lower hybrid current drive and electron cyclotron current drive via two- or three-dimensional simulation. All the test cases run fast and correctly during calculations. As a result, the code provides a set of powerful tools for studying radio frequency wave heating and current drive in tokamak plasmas.

摘要:
The radon diffusion coefficient and the free radon production rate are important parameters for describing radon migration in the fragmented uranium ore. In order to determine the two parameters, the pure diffusion migration equation for radon was firstly established and its analytic solution with the two parameters to be determined was derived. Then, a self manufactured experimental column was used to simulate the pure diffusion of the radon, the improved scintillation cell method was used to measure the pore radon concentrations at different depths of the column loaded with the fragmented uranium ore, and the nonlinear least square algorithm was used to inversely determine the radon diffusion coefficient and the free radon production rate. Finally, the solution with the two inversely determined parameters was used to predict the pore radon concentrations at some depths of the column, and the predicted results were compared with the measured results. The results show that the predicted results are in good agreement with the measured results and the numerical inverse method is applicable to the determination of the radon diffusion coefficient and the free radon production rate for the fragmented uranium ore. ©2014 Elsevier Ltd.

摘要:
This research investigated the ionizing radiation effect on thiamine hydrochloride (TH) and its usability as an irradiation dosimeter. The fundamental principle is to determine the concentration variations of TH solutions with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) after exposing to γ-rays. The decreasing peak area of TH in the HPLC chromatogram forms a linear relationship with the rising radiation dose. We investigated the characteristics and suitable application range of the TH as a new radiation dosimeter. The influence factors and mechanism of the reaction induced by radiation were also discussed. According to the correlation between the concentration and the radiation dose, 0.3 g/L of a TH solution is suitable for the 0.1 - 10 kGy dose range, and 2 g/L is appropriate for 0.1 - 20 kGy. The easy availability and the simple, but stable, chemical structure of thiamine makes it a potential candidate for radiation dose research. Also, the preparation proceeding for sampling is easy, and the result can be automatic monitored by liquid chromatography. ©The Japan Society for Analytical Chemistry.

摘要:
We investigated the synergetic effect of electrochemical and photocatalytic oxidation in photoelectrochemical (PEC) process for the degradation of hazardous organic compounds exemplified by methyl orange, an azo dye. Nitrogen doped TiO 2 thin film (NTTF) synthesized by the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method, was used as the working anode. The crystalline, optical properties, surface morphology, and structure of the NTTF were characterized by XRD, UV-vis absorbance edges, SEM, and XPS. Results showed that the NTTF was dominated by anatase phase after sintered at 600°C with significant visible light response at 595nm. XPS analyses indicated nitrogen doping was mainly responsible for reducing the band gap as evidence of 3% N doping into the structure via the linkage of TiON and NTiO bond. SEM images illustrated the nitrogen-doped TiO 2 nanoparticles being attached firmly and spread evenly over the ITO glass surface, which is beneficial for PEC applications. The degradation efficiency of MO by photoelectrochemical, photocatalytic, electrochemical and photolysis methods were compared in terms of pseudo-first-order reaction rate. PEC was the most efficient in degrading MO at a bias potential of 2.0V (vs. SCE) under light at a wavelength of 325nm, which was consistent with results of IPCE (%) measurements. The synergetic effect was quantified at current/bias potential of 0.07mA/0.3V and 0.6mA/2.0V, respectively. Results demonstrated that the bias potential could separate photogenerated holes and electrons effectively and enhance the electrochemical-oxidation of MO. The mechanistic aspects of MO degradation by the PEC process were discussed. © 2012.

摘要:
A well-optimized design of an ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) antenna is very important for steady-state plasma heating with high radio frequency (RF) power of several tens of megawatts. However, a sharp decrease in the coupling RF power because of impedance mismatch of ICRH system is an issue that must be resolved for present-day fusion reactors and International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor. This paper has theoretically analyzed the ICRH antenna's impedance matching for ELMy plasmas on experimental advanced superconducting tokamak (EAST) by the transmission line theory. The results indicate that judicious choice of the optimal feeder location is found useful for adjustable capacitors' tolerance to the variations of the antenna input impedance during edge-localized mode (ELM) discharge, which is expected to be good for the design of ICRH antenna system and for real-time feedback control during ELM discharge on EAST.
