    The flow profile in an open raceway photo-bioreactor was studied by employing computational fluid dynamics(CFD). The effects of the inducing baffle structure,air inlets spacing along length direction and width direction were investigated. The calculated results showed that an open raceway photo-bioreactor has maximum velocity,minimum dead zone ratio and minimum power input when the inducing baffles angles are 180°,and extending length ?L/W is 0.5. The average velocity magnitude along the light direction is maximum when the spacing along width direction ?Y/W1 is 1/4,and the spacing along length direction ?X/L1 is 0.025. Light intensity,light and dark frequency of algal cells are derived from particle trajectories with and without air by employing particle tracking model (PTM).

    To investigate the effect of condenser location and gravity on operating performance,a miniature loop heat pipe with series flat evaporator were tested. The results show that the loop heat pipe can start up successfully at various positions under a low heat load (20 W) and have good operating performance with Qmax=130 W and R=0.21℃/W. At horizontal position,the loop heat pipe with shorter vapor line has better start-up performance and higher Qmax. Under a higher heat load,the effect of condenser location on operating performance becomes more noticeable. It is found that a loop heat pipe with series flat evaporator has good anti-gravity capability and can operate with all elevations and tilts. When the loop heat pipe is at vertical position with compensation chamber above the evaporator,its operating performance is the best under the gravity field.

    To optimize and improve the structure and layout of a vertical impinging stream reactor,the mixing performance can be strengthened,the flow fields with different spacing were simulated using the Fluent software. The spacing between the upper and lower draft tubes are set as 60 mm,80 mm,100 mm,120 mm. The reaction is preceded at the rotating speed of 5 r/s,15 r/s,25 r/s respectively. The computation result shows that at a similar rotating speed,when the spacing of draft tube is 80 mm,the average speed of velocity distribution over the characteristic impact surface of reactor can reach a maximum value,and the performance of mass transfer under this structure is the best. Under the same condition,the impinging spacing with D=60 mm can come up to a maximum root-mean-square deviation in the radial velocity distribution of impinging surface,which indicates that in this zone of structure there is a great velocity gradient which is facilitated to the turbulent mixing of shear in the reactor.

    Common cyclone separating devices cannot meet the technical requirements of large flow rate and high flow velocity. This study shows that the effective spiral movement of dual-phrase distribution of gas-solid is the key for cyclone separation, and cyclone separating devices with spiral guiding devices can make fluids move spirally, which can greatly improve the efficiency of cyclone separation. At the same time, setting up back-mixing preventing structure can ensure the effect of final separation. A complete separation system, which consists of dual-separator in parallel, an atmolysis tank, a dust tank and an ash valve, meets technical requirements in industrial units.

    The main industrial utilization of oil shale is to produce shale oil through a retorting process. In order to lower the carrier gas temperature so as to prolong the service life of the carrier gas preheater and to save energy,moderate amount of oxygen was added to the carrier gas in the oil shale retorting process. The retorting process of oil shale under aerobic condition with low-temperature carrier gas was studied. The characteristic via increasing bed temperature in the retorting process was investigated. Gas and liquid products obtained from the retorting process under aerobic condition were compared with that under anaerobic condition. The results show that oxygen content in the carrier gas has a significant effect on the retorting process as temperature increasing. The temperature of oil shale bed can be increased and sustained to a high enough level for retorting process due to the heat generated by the oxidation reaction of oil shale. The oil yield and the main components content of shale oil under aerobic condition is close to those under anaerobic condition although light components and compounds contained O—H bond and C==O bond in shale oil under aerobic condition are little more than those under anaerobic condition. The results obtained from the present work provide a new retorting process of oil shale to produce shale oil,which has a better industrial application potential.

    Ultrafine nickel-based catalyst was prepared by sol-gel using tetraethoxy-silane (TEOS),n-butyl phthalate acid,and nickel nitrate as raw materials,and the samples were characterized. The most appropriate process condition was determined for the ultrafine nickel-based hydrogenation catalysts toluene by changing the temperature,pressure,space velocity,hydrogen and other hydrocarbon process conditions. The results show that the maximum conversion of toluene hydrogenation rate of 100% when the temperature is between 160—170 ℃,pressure is between 0.6—0.8 MPa,airspeed is 4 h-1,hydrogen-hydrocarbon ratio is 10∶1. Selectivity within 80—200 ℃ range is better than others without open-loop and other side reactions. Selectivity can reach 100%. Therefore,a nickel-based catalyst from dual silicon source sol-gel preparation is an excellent catalyst for toluene hydrogenation.

    The bonded phase, 3-glycidoxypropyl silica gel, was prepared by the method of toluene reflux. The reaction conditions, including material ratio, reaction temperature and reaction time on the formation of bonded phase, were investigated through orthogonal test and one-factor test. The results indicated that the proper increasing of the content of KH-560, the reaction temperature and reaction time could promote the formation of bonded phase. But the results also showed that the overhigh reaction temperature and the overlong reaction time will cause the dissociation of KH-560. The suitable reaction conditions for the formation of silica gel and KH-560 bonded was:silica gel:KH-560 = 1:2 ( mass ratio); reaction temperature 65?—80 ℃; reaction time 48—72 h. The decomposition of KH-560 can be avoided under this condition. Finally,compared with the hydrogen content between elemental analysis and theoretical calculation, it could be identified that there was only one methoxy group of the KH-560 molecule involved in the bonded reaction.

    The methods of epoxidication,ring open and esterification were used to prepare polyester polyol with three kinds of fatty acids which are different in iodine value,and the properties of polyester polyol and polyurethane foam (PUF) were compared. It was found that the iodine number of fatty acids (1#<2#<3#) effected on the hydroxyl value of polyol,the higher iodine value,the higher hydroxyl value of polyol. Hydroxyl values of 1#,2# and 3# polyester polyol were 261.47,370.28 and 434.49 mgKOH/g,respectively. Polyester polyol was analysed with GPC. Polyol’s relative molecular weights distributed in 600—2000 were detected by GPC. Foam density determines the performance of mechanism,such as higher foam density leads better compress and bending property. Three kinds of foam have good compress and bending property,whose foam densities are in the sequence of ?1#

    Pore modified TiO2 thin films were prepared by adding ammonium nitrate into TiO2 sol precursor and using dip-coating technique. The formation process of pores in TiO2 thin film is closely related to the phase separation induced by ammonium nitrate in dip-coated TiO2 sol film. Ammonium nitrate in the dip-coated TiO2 sol film not only suppresses the evaporation of condensed water during the drying process but also increases the surface tension of water phase,which enhances the formation of water droplets which remains pores in the dried gel after being completely evaporated. The formed TiO2 thin films showed excellent superhydrophilicity. The pore distribution density increased and the transmittance of visible light deceased as the amount of ammonium nitrate was increased. Increase of repeating times of the coating process produced a multilayer pore modified film surface which was favorable to increase the transmittance of visible light.

Besides,it was determined that the solubility of nano-Cu with different sizes in the dilute sulphuric acid,and the effect of particle size on the solubility was discussed. The results show that the particle size of nano-Cu has a considerable influence on the solubility in dilute sulphuric acid; the blocky Cu,which is insoluble in a dilute acid,can dissolve in a dilute acid when turned into nano-Cu with certain sizes,and the smaller the diameter,the higher the solubility,and the logarithm of the solubility has linear relation with the reciprocal of the diameter; and the experiment results are in accordance with the theoretic analysis.

    Pure and Fe-doped NaTaO3 nanoparticles were synthesized by hydrothermal method. XRD patterns indicated that both pure as well as iron doped NaTaO3 were pure orthorhombic phase of tantalite. UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra clearly displayed the red-shift in the series of iron doped NaTaO3 catalysts, indicating a decrease in the band gap of NaTaO3 caused by the substitution of Fe3+ ions at Ta5+ site, and the red-shift increased with the increase of iron doping concentration in NaTaO3. The light absorption mechanism was discussed by density functional theory. Fe3+ ions substitution of Ta5+ ions resulted in an intermediate band (IB) below the bottom of the conduction band (CB), which was mainly attributed to the state of Fe 3d.

    The key problem in evaluating the parameters of the 7-parameter Cross-WLF viscosity model of polymer materials with nonlinear fitting method is how exactly to calculate the gradient vector f2(x) and the Hessian matrix?? f2(x). Numerical method loses its efficiency here and singularity problem arises due to the significant difference of the parameters in magnitude. In order to overcome this problem,automatic differentiation method was adopted in this paper to calculate? f2(x) and? f2(x). Its differentiation accuracy is up to that of analytical method when neglecting the truncation error. Further more,this method is of high stability and benefits much to the final result of the fitting program. Test case shows the RMS error between the fitting viscosity and the experimental viscosity is less than 1×10-5.

Firstly the concentration of flavonoids at different temperature and extraction time were measured. It is found that the concentration increased with the increase of temperature and extraction time and finally reached the equilibrium. Then the kinetic model of flavonoids extraction was established according to Fick’s second law of diffusion and ball model,and the kinetic parameters,including rate constant,activation energy,yield and the diffusion coefficient,were obtained. The established kinetic model provided a foundation for the optimization of technological conditions and further theoretical study.

    N-alkyl anilines are widely used as synthetic intermediates for pharmaceuticals,agrochemicals,fine chemicals,bioactive compounds,and dyes chemicals. The mechanism and the research process of N-alkylation of aromatic amines with corresponding alkylating agents,such as alkyl halides,carbonyl compounds and alcohols were summarized in this paper. The one-pot synthesis of N-alkyl anilines from nitroaromatics as starting material with carbonyl compounds,nitriles and alcohols was highlighted. Recently,much attention has been paid to the use of alcohols as alkylating reagents for the N-alkylation of nitroaromatics due to the mild reaction conditions,without additional organic ligand. Therefore,the development of efficient catalyst for N-alkylation system with alcohol is still a challenging goal.

    Activated carbons of coconut shell were tested as adsorbents of removing dimethyl disulfide and the effects of surface chemistry and pore structure on the adsorptions were investigated. Chemical hardness was computed to interpret the effect of surface chemistry on the adsorptions by Hard and Soft Acids and Bases (HSAB) theory. Moreover the thermodynamic property of the adsorptions was studied. The results show that the number of acid oxygen functional groups has little influence on the adsorptions due to the similar chemical hardness among compounds in sulfate turpentine. However specific surface area and pore volume have great impact on the adsorption. The adsorption isotherms of dimethyl disulfide on the activated carbons fit the Freundlich model and equation satisfactorily. And the result of adsorption thermodynamics shows that the adsorption of dimethyl disulfide on activated carbon is an exothermic,low-disordered and spontaneous process.

    The generation of bromide (Br-) and bromated (BrO3-) in tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) ozonation process was investigated at different water quality parameters and ozone dose. The purpose of the experiment was to find out the main factors that control the formation of BrO3- during the ozonation of TBBPA. The results showed that there were two stages in the ozonation of TBBPA. In the first stage,the TBBPA was oxidized and Br- was released. The second stage was the ozonation of Br- to BrO3-. More Br- and BrO3- were generated at higher initial concentrations of TBBPA. The formation rate was improved with the increasing of ozone dose. The concentration of BrO3- increased 4.5 times with the temperature increased from 25 ℃ to 55 ℃. The levels of Br- and BrO3- decreased as the pH decreased from 11 to 8.
