    There are many types of adsorbents which are used for adsorption and separation of CO2/CH4 binary mixtures system. It is the various characteristics of adsorbents that affect separation result. As a starting point,four kinds of adsorbent properties affecting separation,which include porous structure,exchangeable cations,surface chemistry and moisture of adsorbent,are summarized in this article and the reason of all kinds of influences are explained. We come to several conclusions,including that mesoporous is conducive to the separation and amine grafting;the introduction of corresponding exchangeable cations can enhance the affinity between quadrupole and adsorbents,and improve the adsorption selectivity;surface hydroxyl is also an important factor affecting grafting amine;moisture can enhance the separation performance of adsorbent but also is conducive to grafting amine.

    Droplets freezing process by spray freezing leads to their complex microstructures due to the formation of ice crystals within droplets. Numerical simulation was conducted to study the effect of droplet size,gas velocity and environmental temperature on the freezing process for a single droplet. Uniform temperature model was adopted in the simulation of droplet freezing process. The results show that the total solidification time for larger droplet is about 3 orders longer than that for the smaller one. Freezing rate is enhanced as gas velocity increases and environmental temperature decreases. Using variance analysis method,it is found that droplet size,gas velocity and environmental temperature have significant impacts on droplet total solidification time(p=0.0063>0.05). During cooling process,the ratio of droplet mass loss due to convection decreases to lesser extent with the increases of droplet size and gas velocity,which is about 2%. Lower environmental temperature,which is an influential parameter,results in lower droplet mass loss ratio.

    In order to overcome the difficulty of being easily trapped in local optimal solution during the global optimization process of heat exchanger network,the Monte-Carlo random sampling technique was applied to the random combination of cold fluid and hot fluid in the heat exchanger network. Through this way,the random changes of optimization sequence about multi-dimensional parameters were accomplished,the global optimal result of heat exchanger network could be sought out during jumping out from one local minimum solution to another. Through a case study,compared with previous results,the better result was obtained using this optimization method which is more suitable to industrial applications.

    A control method of total reflux by introducing temperatures of top part,upper-middle part and middle part in batch distillation column without reflux drum was proposed. The ethanol—n-propanol system identified as a typical ideal system was used to conduct the experimental study of this operation. The optimized temperature control conditions were determined by experiments:when the temperature of the top part was stable and difference between the upper-middle part and the top part was 0.3 ℃,the total reflux operation would be switched to the total withdrawal operation,and if the temperature of the middle part rose by 1 ℃,the total withdrawal operation should be converted to the total reflux operation. From the results of experiments under the same operating conditions,the influence of different feed concentrations on the overhead product average purity is not significant,basically maintained at 0.99(mass fraction). Finally,compared with dual temperature control method under the same feed concentration and operating conditions,this tri-temperature control method reduces operating time by 23.3 min,promotes separation efficiency by 23.95%,increases the purity of product by 1.06% and increases the product yield by 1.08%.

    The model for applying an internal thermally coupled reactive distillation column(ITCRDC)to hydrolysis of methyl acetate was studied by using the simulation software,Aspen Plus. On the premise of ensuring the purity of products and minimum approach temperature,the effects of the various configurations of ITCRDC on the energy saving were explored. The results suggested that configuration had great influence on the performance of ITCRDC for the hydrolysis reaction of methyl acetate and the optimal one was obtained. And the characteristic of the optimal configuration is that the reaction section is in the rectifying tower and the stripping tower is thermally coupled with the rectifying tower.

    Steady state simulation research was carried out for one industrial fluidized catalytic cracking(FCC)unit using the simulation platform developed by our group. The unit model was calibrated and validated by the industrial data collected from the unit. The effects of regenerator heat remover duty on the unit operation were then simulated and analyzed in this paper. The simulation results showed that,via the regulation of regenerator heat remover duty,the unit operator could change unit heat balance effectively and tune up the ratio of catalyst to oil before violating the operating range of process variables,thus more feedstocks could be converted to lighter products and the products distribution could then be adjusted effectively. However it could also decrease the temperature of dense bed in second stage regenerator and then deteriorate the operating performance of regenerator,thus its application is not conducive to improve the initial activity of regenerated catalyst.

    Aqueous-phase reforming of biomass-derived polyols is one of the ongoing and promising technologies for hydrogen production. In this paper,the recent advance in hydrogen production by aqueous-phase reforming of biomass-derived polyols is reviewed. First,the thermodynamic and kinetic considerations that form the basis of the process are discussed. Then,the reaction pathways and the catalytic system as well as the optimization of technological conditions are introduced. In comparison with the process of steam reforming,the advantages and disadvantages of aqueous-phase reforming are proposed. On the one hand,the technology of aqueous-phase reforming possesses the features of lower energy consumption,less processing steps and relatively simple post-processing. On the other hand,there are more side reactions and the yield of H2 is lower. Finally,the review points out that the research directions are the development of more effective and stable catalysts,and the reduction of the cost for catalysts preparation and the optimization of the processing condition in the future.

    During the lifetime of an internal engine,carbon deposit forms at various locations,such as combustion chamber,injection nozzle and inlet valve. Engine carbon deposit has serious influences on the engine efficiency,driveability and exhaust emissions. In order to clean up the carbon deposit,gasoline additives have become a necessary part of modern engine fuel. A large number of research literatures suggest that carbon deposit formation has two steps,i.e. initiation and growth;and these processes would be affected by metal surface temperature,fuel composition,injection rate,and many other factors. The use of a particular structure of the organic amines which can be adsorbed on metal surfaces and disperse pectin can clean the extensive carbon deposit. In addition,the composition,the development and the evaluation method of gasoline detergent have been summarized.

    A series of Al2O3-ZrO2 composite oxides were prepared by impregnation-deposition method. Ni2P/Al2O3-ZrO2 catalysts were prepared by temperature-programmed reduction in a H2 flow. The supports and catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD),N2 adsorption-desorption and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The effect of composite oxides on the performance of Ni2P catalysts was studied by thiophene hydrodesulfurization and pyridine hydrodenitrogenation. The results showed that the introduction of small amounts of ZrO2 on the surface of Al2O3 would not only keep high surface area of γ-Al2O3 but also reduce the contact between P or Ni and the surface of Al2O3,and therefore,promote the formation of Ni2P. Ni2P/Al2O3-ZrO2 catalyst made from Al2O3-ZrO2 support with 20% ZrO2 exhibited the highest activity. And the activity of catalyst would decrease with higher calcination temperature of supports.

    A SiO2/TiO2 composite photocatalyst was prepared by microemulsion method using inorganic polymerized silicate as the silicon source and titanium sulfate as the titanium source. The influence of preparation conditions on photocatalytic activity was investigated,and the photocatalyst was characterized by SEM,FTIR,XRD and BET. The results prove that a strong interaction exists between SiO2 and TiO2 particles,the formation of Ti—O—Si bond inhibits the TiO2 particle growth and also defers the transformation of TiO2 from anatast to rutile phase. The photocatalytic degradation of dyes,such as methyl orange,shows that the photocatalytic activity of SiO2/TiO2 is not improved along with higher propotion of TiO2. when the amount of substance ratio between Silicon and Titanium was 1∶1,and the photocatalyst was hydrothermal synthesized for 2.5 h at 160 ℃,the decoloration rate of methyl orange under UV light irradiation for 15 minutes over the SiO2/TiO2 photocatalyst could reach 85.5%,which has better photocatalytic activity and higher specific surface area than the TiO2 photocatalyst prepared under the same condition.

    Photo-responsive drug delivery systems(Pr-DDS)stands out as a clean and noninvasive DDS. For Pr-DDS,the release of entrapped drugs can be accelerated at a specific location and time upon light-activation,which promotes maximum efficacy. The typical chromophores,incorporated into the photo-responsive drug release systems to render it susceptible to light trigger,include azobenzene(photoisomerization type),spiropyran(formation of zwitterionic species),coumarin(formation of the photo-cross-linking structure),and nitrobenzyl esters(conversion from hydrophobic to hydrophilic block). In this paper,the progress in Pr-DDS development has been reviewed according to their different chromophores,and their application is also involved. Among these four Pr-DDS,Azo,as the representatives of the photoisomerization type,is the most widely studied one,which involves themicelles,vesicles,hydrogels,liposomes,etc. And nitrobenzyl ester,as the representatives of the conversion from hydrophobic to hydrophilic block type,has attracted wide attention for the two-photon response capability. In conclusion,although great progresses had been made on Pr-DDS,but there were still many problems,including how to improve the biocompatibility,and how to achieve feasible targeted light-controlled release in vivo.

Replacing the organic fluorophores of the conventional molecular beacon with QDs will overcome its many shortcomings. Quantum dot-molecular beacon is not only sensitive in measurement and stable against photo degradation,but also can be applied for multi-detection. In this paper,the development of quantum dot-molecular beacon in recent years is introduced. The types of MBs,linkage strategies,fluorescence quenchers and the characterization of quantum dot-molecular beacon were summarized. Moreover,its applications on nucleic-acid diagnostics are discussed,including multiple SNP detection,real-time monitoring on the living cells.

    The development of environmental friendly polyurethane foams is a focus in polyurethane industry. By introducing soy protein isolate(SPI)and flame retardant polyols into polyurethane(PU),environmental friendly flame retardant high resilience flexible polyurethane foams were prepared by free foaming. The effects of SPI content and addition manner on the physical,mechanical,biodegradability,and flame retardant properties of PU foams were investigated. The results show that,introducing SPI by adding not by substituting for polyols is an effective way to improve the performance of PU foam. By adding a small amount of SPI,the open cell ratio,elongation at break,resilience,comfort factor,density,and indentation force deflection value of PU foam are increased,while the tensile strength,limited oxygen index,and compression set value are slightly affected. SPI changes the structure of rigid segments,hence effectively enhances the biodegradability of PU foam.

    Chitosan(CS)/polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)blend films with different compositions were prepared by solution casting technical using 2% acetic acid/water as a solvent. The structure,hydrogen-bonding,thermal behaviors and crystallization of CS/PVA blend films were systematically investigated by variable temperature FTIR,TGA,DTA,DSC and WXRD. It indicated that strong hydrogen-bonding interactions existed between CS and PVA,leading to the increase in thermal stability of CS,the decrease in crystallinity of PVA,and enhancement of the compatibility of CS and PVA. When the weight ratio of CS / PVA blend films was 10/0,7/3,5/5,3/7 and 0/10,the initial decomposition temperature of blends was 244 ℃,257 ℃,260 ℃,262 ℃ and 285 ℃ correspondingly. The melting temperature of PVA was decreased from 193 ℃ to 173 ℃. The glass transition temperature was increased from 74.2 ℃ to 80 ℃,and the crystallinity Xc declined from 3.57% to 1.97%.

    A composite polypiperazine-amide nanofiltration membrane,supported by polysulfone(PSF)ultrafiltration membrane,was prepared via interfacial polymerization of piperazine(PIP)and trimesoyl chloride(TMC)in the present of polyvinyl alcohol(PVA). The effects of PVA,PIP and TMC concentration,temperature and time of heat treatment on the composite membrane were studied,and the surface structure and morphology were analyzed by scanning electron microscope(SEM)and atomic force microscopy(AFM). The experiment results showed that increasing PVA content would lead to the increase in the flux of the nanofiltration membrane,make the nanofiltration membrane more hydrophilic,and cause the surface of the nanofiltration membrane smoother. The optimal preparing condition of the composite membrane was 3.0 g/L TMC,1.0 g/L PIP,0.54 g/L PVA,1 min reaction time,and 10 min heat treatment at 50 ℃.The separation performance of self-made nanofiltration membrane,treating the solutions of Na2SO4,MgSO4,NaCl or MgCl2,was similar to that of the commercial nanofiltration membranes,such as Dow NF-270 and Synder. Furthermore,the nanofiltration membrane also showed very good separation and anti-fouling performance in the advanced treatment of deinking wastewater.

    The optimal fermentation time of Penicillium citrinum feruloyl esterase(PcFAE)was 60 h and its activity was 40.8 mU/mL when the Brewers’ Spent Grain(BSG)was used as the sole carbon source for Penicillium citrinum. One gram of alcohol-insoluble residue(AIR)of Brewers’spent grain(BSG)was processed by the solution of crude xylanase(XG180)(47.5 U/mL,15 mL)for 12 hours at the condition of the material-liquid ratio 1∶30(W/V),pH 5.0 and 45 ℃,respectively. And then the solution of crude PcFAE(40.8 mU/mL)was added and the sample was processed for another 12 h. The maximum release rate of Ferulic acid(FA)was 54.1% and the release amount of xylooligosaccharide(XOS)was 161 mg/g(BSG-AIR),respectively. The results of our experiments showed that the release rate of FA and XOS from BSG-AIR increased significantly as the PcFAE could coordinate with the xylanase and enzymolysis process was also conducive to the degradation of BSG.

    The application of triphenylphosphine as an additive in the production of furfural was researched. The effect of the amount of triphenylphosphine on furfural yield was investigated in the range of 0.05%—0.5% of corncob’s weight. The result shows that furfural yield reached 86% with triphenylphosphine’s amount of 0.25% in corncobs. Furfural yield was improved 20—25 percent compared to the traditional process. Therefore,the addition of triphenylphosphine could improve furfural yield obviously,which would have a good prospect in furfural production.

    This paper reviewed the synthesis of 3-picoline via the reaction between acrolein and ammonia. It was reported up to now that there are mainly three approaches for the synthesis of 3-picoline from the reaction of acrolein with ammonia,i.e.,the liquid-phase reaction in stirring tank reactor,the gas-phase reaction in fixed-bed reactor and the gas-phase reaction in fluidized-bed reactor. The paper described the general features of these reaction processes,with comments on their advantages and disadvantages and the related catalysts. It addressed particularly the key issues in the reaction process of acrolein/ammonia to 3-picoline. The foreground of the mesoporous material and solid acid catalysts applied to the reaction and the mechanism researches of 3-picoline prepared from acrolein were also prospected,the mesoporous material and solid acid catalysts applied to the reaction and the mechanism researches were thought to one of the development direction.

    Carbon-based solid acid catalysts synthesized from starch and p-toluene sulphonic acid were characterized by FTIR,TG,BET,SEM and EDS. Its catalytic activity and effect of conventional heat and microwave heat on yield of acetylsalicylic acid were studied. The better condition was determined with single factor tests,which is as follows:the molar ratio of acetic anhydride to salicylic acid was 1.5∶1,the weight ratio of carbon-based solid acid to salicylic acid was 5.8%,acylation reaction temperature was 76—80 ℃,reaction time was 25 min under conventional heat. The yield of acetylsalicylic acid was 82.1% and kept 78.2% after used five times under conventional heat. The carbon-based solid acid catalyst has high catalytic activity and retrievability under conventional heat,which are better than that of microwave heat.

    The synthesis of 3-methyl salicylic acid in supercritical or subcritical carbon dioxide has important meaning for the green synthesis of 3-methyl salicylic acid and resourcization of carbon dioxide. After comparing the catalytic activity of anhydrous potash,anhydrous sodium carbonate and so on,anhydrous potash was chosen as the best catalyst to synthesize 3-methyl salicylic acid directly from o-cresol by one-pot method in supercritical or subcritical carbon dioxide. At the condition of reaction time from 1—6 hours,catalyst′s relative dosage(nK2CO3/ nO-Cresol)from 0.05—1.25,reaction temperature from 130—270 ℃ and reaction pressure from 4—10MPa,o-cresol’s carboxylic reaction was studied in supercritical or subcritical carbon dioxide. The result showed that the conversion of o-cresol and the yield of 3-methyl salicylic acid both increased at first with the increase of time,and then the conversion became stable,but the yield decreased slightly in the end. The conversion and the yield increased rapidly at first and then increased slowly with the increase of catalyst′s relatively dosage. The conversion and the yield increased rapidly at first but then decreased with the increase of reaction pressure or reaction temperature. The conversion is about 19.7% and the yield is about 17.5% under the optimal condition that reaction time was 3 hours,catalyst′s relatively dosage was 0.5,reaction temperature was 190 ℃ and reaction pressure was 8 MPa. In addition,a possible reaction mechanism was proposed.

    The affecting factors on phenol removal by Fe(Ⅱ)-EDTA/K2S2O8 process were studied,and the oxidation mechanism and reaction kinetics were analyzed. The results showed that the forms of iron ion and oxidant,the addition of chelant and ultraviolet have obviously effect on the oxidation of phenol. When EDTA dosage was 0.5 mmol/L,Fe(Ⅱ)dosage was 1.0 mmol/L,K2S2O4 dosage was 2.0 mmol/L,and initial pH values was 7.0,the phenol(C0=100 mg/L)degradation rate reached 71.48% at 60 ℃ for 60 min by Fe(Ⅱ)-EDTA/K2S2O8 process,under the same condition,ultraviolet radiation could increase the degradation rate to 89.38%. Mechanism and kinetics analysis showed that phenol was mainly degraded through the complex reaction with Fe4+ in Fe(Ⅱ)-EDTA/K2S2O8 process.

    In order to study the feasibility of coating wastewater treatment by aerobic granular sludge in SBR,aerobic granular sludge cultivated in domestic wastewater was used as inoculum and gradually acclimated by the coating wastewater. In this way,the shape,physicochemical properties and pollutant removal ability of acclimated granular sludge were observed. The results showed that five weeks later, the acclimated granular didn’t disintegrate but in a more compact structure,white color with an average diameter 1.5 mm,MLSS 8000 mg/L and SVI30 28 mg/L,which represented that both the settling performance and the biomass had been improved. When the reactor operated about 45 days, the pollutant removal ability was found to be in apparent and stable state with effluent concentration of COD,NH4+-N, PO43- -P below 100 mg/L,10 mg/L,1.0 mg/L,which achieved the secondary standard of “Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard” (GB 8978—1996) as well as the good pollutant removal effect synchronization.

    Two kinds of double-column distillation process,double effect heat integration distillation and separate heat pump distillation,for separation of methanol-dimethyl carbonate system were simulated based on the methanol-dimethyl carbonate system azeotropic character. The binary interaction parameters of Wilson equation were fitted against the reported experimental data of methanol-dimethyl carbonate system. Based on the minimum annual total cost,simulations for the two kinds of double-column distillation process were performed by Aspen Plus software to achieve the optimal condition. The simulation results showed that the two kinds of double-column distillation need lower energy consumption and less annual total fee. Compared with double effect heat integration distillation,separate heat pump distillation can save total capital fee by 2.69% and annual total fee by 17.33% .

The results of stability and 1000h activity of LY-C9-A1+LY-C9-A2 and contrast catalyst show that diene value of LY-C9-A1+LY-C9-A2 hydrogenation products is much lower than that of contrast catalyst even under the condition that inlet temperature of LY-C9-A1+LY-C9-A2 is 5~10 ℃ lower than that of contrast catalyst. The results indicated that LY-C9-A1+LY-C9-A2 possessed better hydrogenation activity comparing with contrast catalyst. Meanwhile,the heating rate of LY-C9-A1+LY-C9-A2 is slower than that of contrast catalyst,which shows that carbon deposition rate of LY-C9-A1+LY-C9-A2 is slower and hydrogenation stability is better. In conclusion,comprehensive properties of LY-C9-A1+LY-C9-A2 are superior to contrast catalyst and enjoy predictable industrial application prospect.
