The power consumption, flow pattern and flow field instability of three systems named as unbaffled stirred tank, traditional baffled stirred tank and punched baffled stirred tank(Pun-BST) were studied by using the computational fluid dynamic analysis. Results showed that perforating holes in the baffles could reduce power consumption of mixing. Meanwhile, the punched baffle system could maintain the solids in suspension as traditional baffle system. The results also showed that the baffles could increase the “effective flow” of stirred tank even though the whole velocity of the vessel is lower than un-baffled vessel. In addition, both the solid-liquid suspension and “effective flow” were related to instability of the flow field.Perfect solid-liquid suspension results always along with obvious instability of the flow field. But, the strengthening effect of punched baffle on flow field instability mainly happened in the near-wall area.It's because the collision and aggregation among sub-streams induced by holes intensified the unstable fluid flow. On the whole, the Pun-BST system provided much better mixing characteristics and recommended to apply in the industrial process.展开更多

The Ca^2＋ absorption in rice leaves and Ca^2＋ transportation from roots to leaves were promoted significantly in response to Hg^2＋ and TCB treatments for 4-48 h. The Ca^2＋ absorption peaks presented in the leaves when the rice seedlings were exposed to Hg^2＋ for 8-12 h or to TCB for 12-24 h. Several Ca^2＋ absorption peaks presented in the roots during rice seedlings being exposed to Hg^2＋ and TCB, and the first Ca^2＋ absorption peak was at 8 h after being exposed to Hg^2＋ and TCB The result of isotope exchange kinetic analysis confirmed that short-term （8 h） Hg^2＋ and TCB stresses caused Ca^2＋ channels or pumps located on plasmalemma to open transiently. The phosphorylation assay showed that short-term TCB stress enhanced protein phosphorylation in rice roots （TCB treatment for 4-8 h） and leaves （TCB treatment for 4-24 h）, and short-term （4-8 h） Hg^2＋ stress also enhanced protein phosphorylation in rice leaves. The enhancement of protein phosphorylation in both roots and leaves corresponded with the first Ca^2＋ absorption peak, which confirmed that the enhancement of protein phosphorylation caused by TCB or Hg^2＋ stress might be partly triggered by the increases of cytosolic calcium. TCB treatment over 12 h inhibited protein phosphorylation in rice roots, which might be partly due to that TCB stress suppressed the protein kinase activity. Whereas, Hg^2＋ treatment inhibited protein phosphorylation in rice roots, and Hg^2＋ treatment over 12 h inhibited protein phosphorylation in rice leaves. This might be attributed to that not only the protein kinase activity, but also the expressions of phosphorylation proteins were restrained by Hg^2＋ stress.展开更多

文摘The effects of 5 mg/L 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene （TCB） and 0.1 mmol/L mercury ion （Hg^2＋） stresses on Ca^2＋ fluxion and protein phosphorylation in rice seedlings were investigated by isotope exchange kinetics and in vitro phosphorylation assay. The Ca^2＋ absorption in rice leaves and Ca^2＋ transportation from roots to leaves were promoted significantly in response to Hg^2＋ and TCB treatments for 4-48 h.
