The characterization of the products were performed by means of Fourier transform infrared spectrometry （FTIR）, gas chromatography/mass spectrometry （GC/MS） and viscosity experiments. The results show that PAO has the lower thermal stability, being degraded at 200℃ different from 300 ℃ for DE. Several by-products are identified during the thermal degradation of two lubricant base oils. The majority of PAO products consist of alkenes and olefins, while more oxygen-contained organic compounds are detected in DE samples based on GC/MS analysis. The related reaction mechanisms are discussed based on the experimental results.展开更多

Six (6) oil samples were obtained from seeds of three (3) geographical origins. The identification and quantification of fatty acids and the polyphenolic profile were carried out by GC-MS and HPLC-UV, respectively. Analysis of fatty acid methyl esters allowed the identification and quantification of 18 fatty acids. Oils from unwashed seeds were richer in palmitic (C16:0), stearic (C18:0), oleic (C18:1) and arachidic (C20:0) acids. In addition, HPLC-UV analysis at 279 nm shows that oils from unwashed seeds are richer in tyrosol, hydroxytyrosol and caffeic acid. With regard to the polyphenolic profile, gallic acid and quercetin were not detected in these baobab oils. Principal component analysis of fatty acid and phenolic compound content showed that oils from unwashed seeds would best preserve their chemical and associated potential bioactive characteristics.展开更多

Bioremediation, particularly through the use of organisms like Pleurotus ostreatus (mushroom) and Eisenia fetida (earthworm), has emerged as a promising approach to mitigate crude oil pollution. Understanding the effectiveness of these organisms in reducing hydrocarbon levels in contaminated soil is crucial for devising sustainable remediation strategies. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Pleurotus ostreatus and Eisenia fetida in remediating crude oil-polluted soil. Specifically, it sought to assess the hydrocarbon profiles in soil treated with these organisms across varying concentrations of crude oil pollution. Method: Crude oil concentration levels ranging from 0% to 10% were applied to soil samples alongside control treatments, including soil only, soil with earthworms, and soil with mushrooms. Each treatment was replicated five times using a randomized complete block design. Standard methods were employed to determine the hydrocarbon contents of the soil. Results: The results indicated a significant increase (P Pleurotus ostreatus and Eisenia fetida exhibited noteworthy reductions in these hydrocarbon levels. At the three-month mark, mushrooms demonstrated a remarkable ability to reduce hydrocarbon content by 70% - 90% compared to the pollution treatment. In contrast, earthworms exhibited minimal potential for hydrocarbon reduction, particularly at both three and six-month intervals. For instance, TOC reduction reached a maximum of 96% with mushroom treatment and 85% with earthworm treatment at 5% crude oil pollution over six months. Conclusion: The findings highlight the effectiveness of Pleurotus ostreatus in significantly reducing hydrocarbon levels in crude oil-polluted soil compared to Eisenia fetida. Mushroom-treated soils consistently exhibited substantial reductions in TOC, TPH, TOG, PAH, and THC over the study period, suggesting their potential as a viable bioremediation agent. In contrast, while earthworms showed some capability in reducing hydrocarbon content, their effectiveness was comparatively limited. Recommendation: Based on the results, it is recommended to utilize Pleurotus ostreatus for the bioremediation of crude oil-polluted soils. Further research could explore optimizing remediation protocols involving mushroom-based treatments for enhanced efficiency. Statement of Significance: This study contributes valuable insights into the application of bioremediation techniques for mitigating crude oil contamination in soil. The demonstrated efficacy of Pleurotus ostreatus underscores its potential as a sustainable and eco-friendly solution for remediating hydrocarbon-polluted environments, offering a promising avenue for environmental restoration and conservation efforts.展开更多

The catalyst of sodium salt of tungstic acid with Co as central atom （Na5CoW12O40） showed optimum activity towards transesterification compared with other heteropoly tungstates. The catalysts activities were correlated with the observed physico-chemical characteristics derived from FT-infrared （FT-IR）, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia （NH3-TPD） and carbon dioxide （CO2-TPD）. The Na5CoW12O40 catalyst exhibiting high activity even at 65 ℃ is due to the presence of strong acidic as well as basic sites. The disclosed catalyst is tolerable towards water and free fatty acids present in the oils. The influence of catalyst loading, reaction time and reaction temperature is studied to optimize the reaction parameters.展开更多

Consequently, the optical property in this region differs from that in the surroundings, resulting in surface defects.展开更多

文摘As an important component of light hydrocarbon compounds,alkylbenzene compounds lack indicators to indicate the source of organic matter of light oils and condensates.Forty-one oil samples from the Tarim Basin and Beibuwan Basin were analyzed by comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry(GC×GC-TOFMS).The concentration distributions of thirteen light hydrocarbon compounds with organic matter source and sedimentary environment indication were studied.There is no significant difference in the concentrations of 1-methylpropylbenzene(MPB)in all studied oils.However,the concentrations of 2-MPB in the Tarim swamp oils are higher than that in the Beibuwan lacustrine oils and Tarim marine oils.Based on the significant concentration difference of 1-and 2-MPB in all studied oils,1-/2-MPB(MPBr)was proposed as an indicator to identify the source of organic matter in crude oils.The MPBr values greater than 1.5 indicate that the crude oil mainly comes from lower aquatic organisms,bacteria,and algae.The MPBr values greater than 1.0 and less than 1.5 indicate that crude oil was derived from the combined contributions of lower aquatic organisms,bacteria and algae,and terrestrial higher plants.The MPBr values less than 1.0 suggest that the crude oil was mainly derived from terrigenous higher plants.The MPBr values in crude oils basically are not or slightly affected by depositional environment and secondary alteration.The MPBr values can be used to infer the organic matter origin in sediments,especially for the lack of biomarkers of light oils and condensates.
文摘Fatty acids are the main constituents of vegetable oils.To determine the fatty acid compositions of small trade vegetable oils and some less well studied beneficial vegetable oils,and investigate their relationships with antioxidant activity and oxidative stability,gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was performed to characterize the associated fatty acid profiles.The antioxidant activity of vegetable oils,based on their DPPH-scavenging capacity(expressed as IC_(50) values),was used to assess their impact on human health,and their oxidative stability was characterized by performing lipid oxidation analysis to determine the oxidative induction time of fats and oils.In addition,correlation analyses were performed to examine associations between the fatty acid composition of the oils and DPPH-scavenging capacity and oxidative stability.The results revealed that among the assessed oils,coffee seed oil has the highest saturated fatty acid content(355.10 mg/g),whereas Garddenia jaminoides oil has the highest unsaturated fatty acid content(844.84 mg/g).Coffee seed oil was also found have the lowest DPPH IC_(50) value(2.30 mg/mL)and the longest oxidation induction time(17.09 h).Correlation analysis revealed a significant linear relationship(P<0.05)between oxidative stability and unsaturated fatty acid content,with lower contents tending to be associated with better oxidative stability.The findings of this study provide reference data for the screening of functional edible vegetable oils.

文摘The thermal degradation of two synthetic lubricants base oils, poly-a-olefins （PAO） and di-esters （DE）, was investigated under oxidative pyrolysis condition and their properties were characterized in simulated ＂areo-engine＂ by comparing the thermal stability and identifying the products of thermal decomposition as a function of exposure temperature. The characterization of the products were performed by means of Fourier transform infrared spectrometry （FTIR）, gas chromatography/mass spectrometry （GC/MS） and viscosity experiments. The results show that PAO has the lower thermal stability, being degraded at 200℃ different from 300 ℃ for DE. Several by-products are identified during the thermal degradation of two lubricant base oils. The majority of PAO products consist of alkenes and olefins, while more oxygen-contained organic compounds are detected in DE samples based on GC/MS analysis. The related reaction mechanisms are discussed based on the experimental results.
文摘The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of baobab seed washing and origin on the chemical composition of the oil extracted by pressing. Six (6) oil samples were obtained from seeds of three (3) geographical origins. The identification and quantification of fatty acids and the polyphenolic profile were carried out by GC-MS and HPLC-UV, respectively. Analysis of fatty acid methyl esters allowed the identification and quantification of 18 fatty acids. Oils from unwashed seeds were richer in palmitic (C16:0), stearic (C18:0), oleic (C18:1) and arachidic (C20:0) acids. In addition, HPLC-UV analysis at 279 nm shows that oils from unwashed seeds are richer in tyrosol, hydroxytyrosol and caffeic acid. With regard to the polyphenolic profile, gallic acid and quercetin were not detected in these baobab oils. Principal component analysis of fatty acid and phenolic compound content showed that oils from unwashed seeds would best preserve their chemical and associated potential bioactive characteristics.

文摘Nano-silica grease(NSG),an innovative lubricant,is commonly synthesized using base oil thickened with SiO_(2),the choice of appropriate base oil is crucial for obtaining superior performance NSG.Herein,a series of alkylnaphthalene(AN)base oils with different side-chain lengths were synthesized through the alkylation reaction between naphthalene andα-olefin.We first reported the synthesis of NSGs based on the AN base oils,and investigated the influence of the synthetic AN base oils on the rheological behaviors and tribological characteristics of the resulted NSGs.The results indicated that the structural strength of the grease increased as the alkyl chain length rose because it reinforced the contact between the alkylnaphthalene base oil and nano-silica thickener.Meanwhile,tribological tests were conducted to examine the effect of various AN base oils on the lubricating performance of the formed NSGs.The tested results showed that increasing the side chain length of the AN could elevate the friction-reducing and anti-wear properties of the NSG.
文摘Flaxseed oil,a key source of plant-based ω-3α-linolenic acid,is susceptible to oxidation and hazardous substance formation during refining and storage.This study evaluated the effects of refining stages(crude,degumming,complete refining)on aldehydes,trans fatty acids,and oxidative stability in flaxseed oil.The results indicate that heat-pressed oil has dark color with high a*and b*values,but exhibits the relatively highest oxidative stability during the oxidation process.However,compared to cold-pressing,heat-pressing promotes the generation of three additional aldehydes,butenal,nonanal,and trans,trans-2,4-decadienal.Degumming optimizes the color of crude oil while maintaining α-linolenic acid.In contrast,complete refining(degumming,deacidification,bleaching,and deodorization)caused the loss of substantial carotenoids and polyphenols,and α-linolenic acid decreased by 3.48%–4.47%,as well as a large amount of production of trans fatty acids.In addition,complete refining not only leads to the formation of newborn acrolein and trans-2-nominal but also results in a significant increase in most aldehydes concentration.This study provides a reference for the processing of flaxseed oil when considering the formation of hazardous substances induced by the oxidation and isomerization of polyunsaturated fatty acids.
文摘Sulphur(S)is essential for the quality of oilseed crops,ranking as the fourth major nutrient after nitrogen(N),phosphorus(P),and potassium(K).While crops need sulphur in slightly lower amounts than phosphorus,maintaining optimum sulphur levels is crucial for oilseed yield and quality.Factors such as sulphur dynamics,impact of deficiency,application methods,and climate change must be addressed to improve agricultural practices.In South Asian countries like India,Pakistan,and Bangladesh,oilseeds are vital to the agricultural economy,supporting food security,livelihoods,and economic growth.However,climate change,marginal land cultivation,and a shift to more profitable crops like wheat and maize have led to a decline in oilseed productivity.Sulphur is particularly important for vital plant functions,including protein synthesis,chlorophyll formation,and resistance to abiotic stress.Proper management of sulphur can significantly enhance the yield,oil content,and seed quality.Sulphur fertilization improves crop resilience to pests,diseases,and environmental stresses,resulting in healthier plants.To optimize oilseed production,best practices for sulphur management like integrated nutrient management,regular soil testing,and the strategic application of sulphur-enriched fertilizers must be adopted.Despite its significance,many South Asian soils suffer from sulphur deficiency due to inadequate replenishment and reliance on high-analysis fertilizers.By enhancing sulphur availability,oilseed producers can significantly increase crop yields,improve oil content,and promote overall plant health,contributing to the agricultural economy and food security in the region.This manuscript aims to evaluate the critical role of sulphur in enhancing the yield,oil quality,and stress resilience of oilseed crops in South Asia.
文摘Rationale: The contamination of soil with crude oil poses significant environmental and ecological threats. Bioremediation, particularly through the use of organisms like Pleurotus ostreatus (mushroom) and Eisenia fetida (earthworm), has emerged as a promising approach to mitigate crude oil pollution. Understanding the effectiveness of these organisms in reducing hydrocarbon levels in contaminated soil is crucial for devising sustainable remediation strategies. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Pleurotus ostreatus and Eisenia fetida in remediating crude oil-polluted soil. Specifically, it sought to assess the hydrocarbon profiles in soil treated with these organisms across varying concentrations of crude oil pollution. Method: Crude oil concentration levels ranging from 0% to 10% were applied to soil samples alongside control treatments, including soil only, soil with earthworms, and soil with mushrooms. Each treatment was replicated five times using a randomized complete block design. Standard methods were employed to determine the hydrocarbon contents of the soil. Results: The results indicated a significant increase (P Pleurotus ostreatus and Eisenia fetida exhibited noteworthy reductions in these hydrocarbon levels. At the three-month mark, mushrooms demonstrated a remarkable ability to reduce hydrocarbon content by 70% - 90% compared to the pollution treatment. In contrast, earthworms exhibited minimal potential for hydrocarbon reduction, particularly at both three and six-month intervals. For instance, TOC reduction reached a maximum of 96% with mushroom treatment and 85% with earthworm treatment at 5% crude oil pollution over six months. Conclusion: The findings highlight the effectiveness of Pleurotus ostreatus in significantly reducing hydrocarbon levels in crude oil-polluted soil compared to Eisenia fetida. Mushroom-treated soils consistently exhibited substantial reductions in TOC, TPH, TOG, PAH, and THC over the study period, suggesting their potential as a viable bioremediation agent. In contrast, while earthworms showed some capability in reducing hydrocarbon content, their effectiveness was comparatively limited. Recommendation: Based on the results, it is recommended to utilize Pleurotus ostreatus for the bioremediation of crude oil-polluted soils. Further research could explore optimizing remediation protocols involving mushroom-based treatments for enhanced efficiency. Statement of Significance: This study contributes valuable insights into the application of bioremediation techniques for mitigating crude oil contamination in soil. The demonstrated efficacy of Pleurotus ostreatus underscores its potential as a sustainable and eco-friendly solution for remediating hydrocarbon-polluted environments, offering a promising avenue for environmental restoration and conservation efforts.

文摘The increasing prevalence of multiple adulteration in olive oil affects product authenticity and market integrity.Therefore,it is necessary to develop advanced methods to detect the multiple adulteration.In this study,a portable Raman spectrometer was employed to address this issue,with adulterant mixtures using a D-optimal mixture design to ensure representative samples.The results showed that principal component analysis(PCA)was unable to distinguish authentic olive oils from adulterated ones,whereas partial least squares-discriminant analysis(PLS-DA)successfully differentiated the two groups.These findings demonstrated the technical feasibility of combining Raman spectroscopy with PLS-DA to detect multiple adulteration in olive oil,offering a promising method for portable,rapid authentication to counter increasingly sophisticated fraud in the edible oil industry.
文摘To improve the economic benefits and farmers’enthusiasm of Brassica napus production,this study compared the agronomic traits,economic traits,and incomes from vegetable and oilseed among five early maturing varieties of Brassica napus,thereby selecting the suitable materials for breeding the varieties for both vegetable and oil.The results showed that all of the five varieties had low erucic acid in oil and low glucosinolate in rapeseed meal.The economic benefits of the varieties for vegetable and oil were generally higher than those of the varieties for only oil.‘CNT01’had the best economic benefits,with the vegetable yield of 8175.3 kg/hm^(2),the rapeseed yield of 2476.5 kg/hm^(2),the vegetable income of 14859.0 yuan/hm^(2),the rapeseed income of 32701.2 yuan/hm^(2),and the net income of 35560.2 yuan/hm^(2).‘CNZ01’was selected as the variety with highest oil quality,with the rapeseed yield of 2712.6 kg/hm^(2) and the net income of 11775.6 yuan/hm^(2).In conclusion,‘CNT01’was selected as the variety for both vegetable and oil.
文摘Alkali salts of tungsten based heteropoly acids with different central atom such as P, Si and Co were prepared and evaluated for transes- terification of both edible and non-edible oils to their corresponding fatty acid methyl esters. The catalyst of sodium salt of tungstic acid with Co as central atom （Na5CoW12O40） showed optimum activity towards transesterification compared with other heteropoly tungstates. The catalysts activities were correlated with the observed physico-chemical characteristics derived from FT-infrared （FT-IR）, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia （NH3-TPD） and carbon dioxide （CO2-TPD）. The Na5CoW12O40 catalyst exhibiting high activity even at 65 ℃ is due to the presence of strong acidic as well as basic sites. The disclosed catalyst is tolerable towards water and free fatty acids present in the oils. The influence of catalyst loading, reaction time and reaction temperature is studied to optimize the reaction parameters.

文摘Essential oils are a volatile and aromatic substance with a variety of active biological activities.However,the excessive volatility and inconvenience of the use of essential oils limit their applications.In this study,we developed a reactive mesoporous silica nanoparticle(rMSNs)based on cyanuric chloride modification for essential oil encapsulation and commodity adhesion.The large pore volume and specific surface area of rMSNs facilitate the nanoparticles adhering to a large amount of essential oil and achieve the sustained release of essential oil,thus prolonging the fragrance retention time of essential oils.The reactive nanoessential oils can form covalent bonds with the wallpaper,thereby remarkably improving the adhesion of the reactive nano-essential oils on the wallpaper and preventing the reactive nano-essential oil from deadhering from the wallpaper.The active nano essential oil simultaneously overcomes the intense volatility of the essential oil and inconvenience in use,has a simple preparation process and low cost,and has great application potential.
文摘To meet the requirements for high aromatic content and low polycyclic aromatic(PCA)concentration,eco-friendly aromatic-rich rubber extender oils are usually produced by two-stage solvent extraction processes with furfural.Among the different properties of rubber processing oils,density and refractive index are some of the most important properties related to their final quality.Two types of methods,including a pseudo-component approach by using mixing rules and several correlations,were used for calculation of density and refractive index at 20℃ of paraffinic furfural-extract oils and their secondary raffinates.Results indicated that similar accuracy was obtained for predicting the density and the refractive index of furfural+furfural-extract paraffinic oil systems.However,the quadratic correlation presents its advantage over the pseudo-component approach when the composition of oils is not available.Moreover,the quadratic correlation was also used for naphthenic lubricating oils during two-stage solvent extraction processes.The predictions showed much larger discrepancies with respect to experimental values than those of paraffinic lubricating oils,which indicated that the quadratic correlation was more suitable for paraffinic oils with a CN value of below 37%.

文摘Lubricating oils are usually produced by solvent extraction to separate aromatics in order to achieve the desired specifications and better quality products.Among the different properties of lubricating oils,density and refractive index are some of the most important properties which can both be used for petroleum fluid characterization.Predictions of density and refractive index for naphthenic oils during solvent extraction by DMSO obtained by the pseudo-component approach and the quadratic correlation were both examined.The pseudo-component approach is a method to predict density and refractive index from composition while the latter merely relates density to refractive index.Results indicated that the predictions yielded by the pseudo-component method were in good agreement with experimental data for naphthenic oils.And the use of a function of refractive index(FRI_(20))as a pseudo-component property remarkably improved n_(20)predictions for the naphthenic mixtures.However,the density and refractive index predictions obtained by the quadratic correlation exhibited significantly higher de-viations for naphthenic oils than those for paraffinic oils.Thus a new modified correlation of the same functional form was proposed for naphthenic oils.The modification significantly improved predictions for naphthenic oils,which presented similar accuracy as the pseudo-component approach.And the previous correlation was still used for paraffinic oils.Additionally,effect of temperature on density and refractive index of naphthenic oils was examined.Results showed that the modified quadratic correlation was accurate for describing the relationship between density and refractive index of naphthenic oils at 20-90℃.The temperature dependence of density and refractive index for the raffinates and the extracts could be accurately described by the thermal coefficients for saturates and aromatics,respectively.Regarding the refractive index variation of the extracts with temperature,the empirical equation was proved to be a better option compared with the method using the thermal coefficient for aromatics.

文摘Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray energy dispersive spectrum analysis show that the clusters of intermetallic AlFeSi particle are distributed on or near the aluminum foil stock surfaces heterogeneously. 3D finite element modeling shows that these clusters of hard particles induce the fracture of the nano-scale lubricant oil film at first and further lead to severe deformation in the nearby aluminum foil substrate along the rolling direction. Consequently, the optical property in this region differs from that in the surroundings, resulting in surface defects.
