    Due to its superior mixing and heat exchange properties,microreactor developed in polymerizations recently has showed a great potential. The aim of this review is to summarize the applications of microreactors in free radical,ionic and stepwise polymerizations. Molecular weight and molecular weight distribution,copolymer composition and molecular structure can be better controlled in microreactors than that in traditional batch reactors. By employing microreactors,polymers with narrow molecular weight distributions can be obtained in highly exothermic polymerizations and reaction time can be drastically reduced in diffusion-controlled polymerizations. Further applications of microreactors in polymerization reactions depend on better understanding of polymerization mechanisms and microreactor characteristics,and related theoretical investigations will be of a great importance in this area.

    In order to solve the engineering problems of a large number of low-quality flue gas waste heat recovery and device failure caused by acid dew point corrosion,a new heat transfer component named compound hollow heat pipe was proposed. Its structure and working principle were introduced. A visual experimental device was established to analyze the mechanism of heat and mass transfer between the vapor-liquid two-phase flow inside the compound hollow heat pipe,at the same time,the experiments on wall isothermal characteristic with different filling rate were carried out. The results show that: nucleate boiling heat transfer exists inside the compound hollow heat pipe,and laminar film condensation of saturated steam is found on the inner side of outer wall when the inner tube is heated by alcohol stove and outer tube was cooled by air convection. When the wall is heated about 2 minutes and temperature increases to about 30 ℃,compound hollow heat pipe can start and work fast. When filling rate is 33%,isothermal characteristic of the wall shows its best performance. Experimental results of the compound hollow heat pipe provide the basis of engineering applications for heat exchanger.

    The enzyme active center essential groups of polyphenol oxidase(PPO)from potato and its inhibitory mechanism were investigated. The essential groups of PPO active center are determined that imidazole of His,guanidinium of Arg and Trp residue,disulfide bond have contribution to the stability of active centre structure but dissociative sulfhydryl group is not the essential group for PPO react activity. These are concluded by the result of using chemical modifiers such as BrAC,Hacac,NBS,DTT and pCMB react with PPO since they have relative specificity to correspond amino acid active group. Inhibit kinetics experiments show that the 50% enzyme activity inhibit concentration(IC50)of ethanol and benzoic acid are 0.12 mmol/L and 0.07 mmol/L respectively,the inhibitory mechanism of ethanol and benzoic acid to PPO are competitive and noncompetitive reversible inhibition. These results show that ethanol inhibits PPO activity by combining with enzyme active center,while benzoic acid inhibits PPO activity by combining with non-enzyme active center.

    The negative effects of endocrine disrupting chemicals(EDCs)to human health and environment are concerned by the whole society. This issue has been a hotspot in the field of environmental governance research. Considering the high octanol-water partition coefficient and bioaccumulation of the pollutants,the fat cell was mimiced to prepare a bionic adsorbent to remove EDCs in water recently. There are two main kinds of bionic adsorbents,poly-3-hydroxybutyrate(PHB)and triolein embedded into cellulose acetate(CA). Both of them can be used to remove the low concentration EDCs from water quickly and efficiently. Modified biomimetic fat cess (MBFC) and CA-triolein can be regenerated at least for five times,without significant decreasing of removal efficiency. This review is conducted on the adsorptive characteristics and adsorption mechanism of this kind of absorbents,and an outlook for the future research on removal of EDCs was also included.

    A novel 206 nm excilamp was generated with microwave-driven Kr/I2 mixtures as a light source,which was combined with H2O2(MWEL/H2O2)for indole and quinoline degradation in an aqueous solution. 50 mg/L of indole and quinoline can be removed entirely after 45 min irradiation with H2O2 dosage over 0.06 mol/L,otherwise,it can not be mineralized utterly. The increasing of irradiation time and H2O2 dosage or the decreasing initial concentration of target compounds all resulted in the decline of mineralization degree. The intermediates were identified qualitatively by gas chromatography/mass spectrum(GC/MS)with headspace sampling after they were extracted by rotary evaporator. FTIR is used to analyze solid precipitated in indole degradation process. The results showed that aggregation reaction occurred during indole photodegradation,as a result,5H-naphtho [2,3-c]carbazole,aliphatic alkene and ester compounds were formed. However,quinoline has gone through ring-open dissociation and oxidation degradation under MWEL/H2O2,and the products were hexanal,acetic acid butyl ester,1,3-dimethyl,o-xylene and 2-ethoxyethyl acetate,respectively. The rate constant of indole mineralization was inferred from kinetic equation. Two conclusions were suggested:the mineralization of indole can be approximated as apseudo-first order kinetics,and was resulted from a direct reaction with hydrogen peroxide and an indirect reaction with ·OH radical.

    The purified microbial flocculant MBFA1 was obtained by centrifugation,ethanol precipitation,dialysis,gel permeation chromatography(GPC)and freezing-drying. The composition,content,molecular weight and structure of the microbial flocculant were analyzed by UV,IR,GPC and GC-MS. The results demonstrated that purified MBFA1 was lemon yellow solid mainly composed of polysaccharides. The content of polysaccharides was 91.2% and protein was 0.59%. The elemental analysis showed that 33.41% of carbon,7.69% of hydrogen,9.63% of nitrogen and 0.39% of sulphur were present in MBFA1. The mean molecular weight of MBFA1 was about 1.38×104 determined by GPC. Ultraviolet spectrum revealed that the absorption peak appeared at 199nm in MBFA1,which may be characteristic of polysaccharides. IR showed that functional groups,such as hydroxyl,amino,carboxyl,hydrogen bond and sulfate,which were beneficial to flocculation,were contained in the structure of MBFA1. GC-MS indicated that D-glucose dominated the monosaccharide composition,and a small amount of D-arabinose and D-mannose were also present in it with a molar ratio of about 100.7∶1∶8.2.

    The pyrolysis characteristics of the lignin were studied by TG analysis,and the identity and distribution of pyrolysis products were analyzed by TG-FTIR and py-GCMS. The results showed that the pyrolysis process of sugarcane bagasse lignin can be divided into four stages,and the major reaction stage was within 200~500 ℃. The highest peak appeared at about 400 ℃. TG-FTIR analysis showed that the gas products of lignin were mostly released within the temperature range from 300 ℃ to 500 ℃ and 400 ℃ was the maximum yield temperature. The pyrolysis products can be classified into heterocycles,benzene,aromatic phenols,esters and acid compounds according to the results from Py-GCMS at different reaction temperatures. The amount of benzene and phenolic aromatic compounds became larger with the increase of pyrolysis temperature in the main pyrolysis stage and the yield of phenolic aromatic compounds was the highest.
