The results of catalyst evaluation have revealed that the Lewis acid-base pair compound developed hereby could enhance the conversion of macromolecular sulfur compounds by the catalyst to promote the proceeding of desulfurization reactions, and the synergetic action of the selected zeolite and the Lewis acid-base pair compound could definitely reduce the olefins and sulfur contents in gasoline. The heavy oil conversion capability of the catalyst DOS thus developed was higher coupled with an enhanced resistance to heavy metals contamination to reduce the sulfur content in gasoline by over 20%. The commercial application of this catalyst at the SINOPEC Jiujiang Branch Company has revealed that compared to the GRV-C catalyst the oil slurry yield obtained by the catalyst DOS was reduced along with an improved coke selectivity, an increased total liquid yield, and a decreased olefin content in gasoline. The ratio of sulfur in gasoline/sulfur in feed oil could be reduced by 20.3 m%.展开更多

When thiobenzothiazole compounds were used as templates, the exchange of sulfur atoms in the thiazole ring with oxygen atoms and NH groups produced twelve isosteres. Similarly, 2-benzothiazole- S-carboxylic acid esters were used as template molecules to produce six isosteres. About 30% of the isosteres exhibited a satisfactory deviation of ±5% relative to the template, ignoring the specific changes in the base oils, the differences in molecular structure, and the friction or wear properties. The template molecules and isosteres in triisodecyl trimellitate exhibited better tribological properties than in trimethylolpropane trioleate or bis(2- ethylhexyl) adipate. Comparative molecular field analysis(CoM FA)- and comparative molecular similarity index analysis(CoMSIA)-quantitative structure tribo-ability relationship(QSTR) models were employed to study the correlation of molecular structures between the base oils and additives. The models indicate that the higher the structural similarities of the base oils and additives are, the more synergetic the molecular force fields of the lubricating system are; the molecular force fields creating synergistic effects will improve tribological performance.展开更多

The results obtained in this study show that the dry weight growth and net photosynthetic rate of masson pine seedlings are reduced by exposure to SO_2 at ≥100 ppb. From these results,one of the main causes in the dieback of masson pine forest reported in Chongqing,China may be relatively high concentrations of atmospheric SO_2 in the relevant area.展开更多

Experiments were carried out and the results are of great agreements with theoretical calculation. Then industrial application tests were performed in a domestic plant and good results were achieved. Sulfur content in steel decreases gradually during refining process, as a result, sulfur content in the billets is controlled in the range of 0.007 1%-0.008 1%. Sulfur content in steel refined with slag basicity of 1.21 is lower than that of 1.02, while the plasticity of oxide compound inclusions is a little better controlled in low basicity heats. Using refining slag with basicity of 1.0-1.2 and MgO content of 5%-10% and reducing the slag takeover of LD are favorable for improving the desulfurization performance and the plasticity of inclusions during the industrial production.展开更多

In the sulfurization of Tb_4O_7 powder, Tb_2O_3 and Tb_2O_2S were formed in the initial stage of reaction, and α-Tb_2S_3 was finally formed at higher temperature. For long sulfurization time of 8 h, single-phase α-Tb_2S_3 could be synthesized at 1323 K. In the sulfurization of Ho_2O_3 powder using CS_2 gas, only Ho_2O_2S was formed as an intermediate product. At a sulfurization temperature above 873 K, Ho_2O_2S was formed in the initial stage of reaction, and single-phase δ-Ho_2S_3 was formed at 1323 K for 8 h instead of Ho_2O_2S. Furthermore, the influence of the addition of carbon black to the sulfurization of Ho_2O_3 powder using CS_2 gas was investigated, and the result implied that the reactions were accelerated slightly by the addition of carbon black.展开更多

The electrode with 6.1 wt% RuO2 nanocrystals and a high sulfur content of 79.0 wt% delivers an optimal electrochemical performance with high residual capacities of 508 mAh g-1 after 200 cycles and 389 m Ah g-1 after800 cycles at 1 C with a low capacity decay of 0.054%. The RuO2 nanocrystals promote the redox reaction kinetics and facilitate the transformation of sulfur chemistry, leading to large improvements in reversibility and rate capability of the composite electrode. The density functional theory calculations signify the formation of Li–O and Ru–S bonds through chemical interactions between RuO2 and Li polysulfides while the adsorption energies between graphene and polysulfide species are much higher in the presence of RuO2 than that of the neat graphene acting alone. These discoveries support the efficient entrapment of polysulfides by the composite electrode to the benefit of enhanced cyclic stability of the battery.展开更多

Many trees are seriously impaired by SO2, while other species can mitigate air pollution by absorbing this gas. Planting appropriate tree species near industrial complexes is critical for aesthetic value and pollution mitigation. In this study, six landscape tree species typical of a subtropical area were investigated for their tolerance of SO2: Cinnamomum camphora (L.) J. Presl., Ilex rotunda Thunb., Lysidice rhodostegia Hance, Ceiba insignis (Kunth) P. E. Gibbs & Semir, Cassia surattensis Burm. f., and Michelia chapensis Dandy. We measured net photosynthesis rate, stomatal conductance, leaf sulfur content, relative water content, relative proline content, and other parameters under 1.31 mg·m-3 SO2 fumigation for eight days. The results revealed that the six species differed in their biochemical characteristics under SO2 stress. Based on these data, the most appropriate species for planting in SO2 polluted areas was I. rotunda, because it grew normally under SO2 stress and could absorb SO2.展开更多

The results show that both surface activating flux and surface active element S have fantastic effects on the YAG laser weld shape, that is to obviously increase the weld penetration and D/W ratio in various welding conditions. The mechanism is thought to be the change of surface tension temperature coefficient in weld pool, thus, the change of fluid flow paten in weld pool due to the flux and sulfur.展开更多

文摘Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy(THz-TDS)was used for the quantitative detection of sulfur content in gasoline.Models of chemo metrics methods and partial least squares(PLS)were built to measure THz-TDS and the sulfur content.All of the samples were divided into two parts.One part was used for calibration and the other one for validation.In order to evaluate the quality of the models,the correlation coefficient(R)and root-mean-square errors(RMSE)of calibration and validation models were calculated.The value of R and RMSE were close to 1 and 0 within acceptable levels,respectively,indicating that the combination of THz-TDS and PLS is a potential method for further quantitative detection.

文摘To reduce harmful sulfur content in lubricant additives, making use of isosterism has been shown to be an effective strategy. When thiobenzothiazole compounds were used as templates, the exchange of sulfur atoms in the thiazole ring with oxygen atoms and NH groups produced twelve isosteres. Similarly, 2-benzothiazole- S-carboxylic acid esters were used as template molecules to produce six isosteres. About 30% of the isosteres exhibited a satisfactory deviation of ±5% relative to the template, ignoring the specific changes in the base oils, the differences in molecular structure, and the friction or wear properties. The template molecules and isosteres in triisodecyl trimellitate exhibited better tribological properties than in trimethylolpropane trioleate or bis(2- ethylhexyl) adipate. Comparative molecular field analysis(CoM FA)- and comparative molecular similarity index analysis(CoMSIA)-quantitative structure tribo-ability relationship(QSTR) models were employed to study the correlation of molecular structures between the base oils and additives. The models indicate that the higher the structural similarities of the base oils and additives are, the more synergetic the molecular force fields of the lubricating system are; the molecular force fields creating synergistic effects will improve tribological performance.

文摘Sulfur is an essential functional element in leaves,and it plays important roles in regulating plant growth,development and abiotic stress resistance in natural communities.However,there has been limited information on the spatial variation in leaf sulfur content(LSC)and adaptive characters on a large community scale.Sulfur in leaves of 2207 plant species from 80 widespread ecosystems(31 forests,38 grasslands and 11 deserts)in China was measured.One-way analysis of variance with Duncan’s multiple-range tests were used to evaluate the differences in LSC among different plant growth forms and ecosystems.We fitted the relationships of LSC to spatial and climate factors using regression.Structural equation modeling analysis and phylogenetic analysis helped us further explore the main factors of LSC variation.LSC ranged from 0.15 to 48.64 g·kg^(-1),with an average of 2.13±0.04 g·kg^(-1) at the community scale in China.We observed significant spatial variation in LSC among different ecosystems and taxa.Overall,LSC was higher in arid areas and herbs.Furthermore,higher LSC was observed under environments of drought,low temperatures and intense ultraviolet radiation.Temperature,precipitation,radiation,soil sulfur content and aridity jointly regulated LSC,explaining 79%of the spatial variation.However,LSC was not significantly related to phylogeny.Our results demonstrate that LSC plays an important role in plant adaptations to extreme environments and further extend our understanding of the biological function of sulfur from the organ to the community level.These findings highlight the importance of sulfur metabolism for our understanding of the impact of global climate change on plants.
文摘The effects of sulfur dioxide(SO_2) on the dry weight growth gas exchange rate and leaf sulfur content of massion pine(Pinus massoniana Lamb. )were investigated. The results obtained in this study show that the dry weight growth and net photosynthetic rate of masson pine seedlings are reduced by exposure to SO_2 at ≥100 ppb. From these results,one of the main causes in the dieback of masson pine forest reported in Chongqing,China may be relatively high concentrations of atmospheric SO_2 in the relevant area.

文摘Desulfurization performance with low binary basicity refining slag in 72 grade tire cord steel was calculated using FactSage and it is found that sulfur content in steel decreases with the increase of basicity of slag, MgO content in slag and slag/steel ratio while sulfur partition ratio between slag and steel increases gradually with the increase of basicity of slag as well as MgO content. Experiments were carried out and the results are of great agreements with theoretical calculation. Then industrial application tests were performed in a domestic plant and good results were achieved. Sulfur content in steel decreases gradually during refining process, as a result, sulfur content in the billets is controlled in the range of 0.007 1%-0.008 1%. Sulfur content in steel refined with slag basicity of 1.21 is lower than that of 1.02, while the plasticity of oxide compound inclusions is a little better controlled in low basicity heats. Using refining slag with basicity of 1.0-1.2 and MgO content of 5%-10% and reducing the slag takeover of LD are favorable for improving the desulfurization performance and the plasticity of inclusions during the industrial production.

文摘There is lack of performance monitoring technologies and related standards and specifications in the Puguang gas field,which is ultra-deep with high sulfur content.In this paper,five key technologies of dynamic monitoring were developed and the related standards and specifications were formulated by investigating high-sulfur gas fields at home and abroad,combined with equipment development,laboratory experiments,theoretical research and field tests.The five key technologies include gas production profile logging,downhole sampling and fluid phase analysis,dynamic water invasion prediction and water producing horizon identification,gas well productivity testing and evaluation,and development monitoring and safety control of high-sulfur ultra-deep wells.Then,these key technologies were applied for verification in the Puguang gas field.And the following research results were obtained.First,the sulfur-resistant gas production profile logging tool has a tem-perature resistance of 175℃and pressure resistance of 105 MPa.Forty-three well times gas production profile logging is carried out with a success ratio of 100%.Second,the high-sulfur downhole pressure sampler has a temperature resistance of 150℃and pressure resistance of 70 MPa.Seven well times downhole pressure sampling is carried out with a success ratio of 100%.Third,elemental sulfur is precipitated in the formation when the formation pressure drops to 29.5 MPa.And no sulfur is deposited in the wellbore when the production rate of gas well is higher than 20×10^(4)m^(3)/d.Fourth,water producing horizons can be identified accurately and water breakthrough time of gas wells can be predicted by using water producing horizon identification technology and dynamic water invasion prediction model.Water influx rates can be controlled and water-free gas production period of gas wells can be extended by optimizing and adjusting the working systems of gas wells.And fifth,full coverage of gas well productivity testing is realized by using the testing technology of"downhole implanted gauge&cable delivery&wellhead flow-variable rate",pressure calculation model and well testing interpretation model,and the productivity evaluation results of gas wells are accurate.Sixth,the dynamic gas tight pressure of the cable multi-stage leakage control system of super-high pressure and gas tightness is 50 MPa,and the processing technology for waste gas of blowout hookup is applied to 143 well times testing operation with zero leakage and zero pollution.In conclusion,these performance monitoring technologies have been playing an important role in scientifically formulating the production and reserves increase measures and ensuring long-term stable production of the Puguang gas field.
文摘The formation behaviors of terbium sesquisulfide(Tb_2S_3)and holmium sesquisulfide(Ho_2S_3)synthesized via the sulfurization of their oxide powders using CS_2 gas in the range of temperature 673 to 1323 K were investigated. In the sulfurization of Tb_4O_7 powder, Tb_2O_3 and Tb_2O_2S were formed in the initial stage of reaction, and α-Tb_2S_3 was finally formed at higher temperature. For long sulfurization time of 8 h, single-phase α-Tb_2S_3 could be synthesized at 1323 K. In the sulfurization of Ho_2O_3 powder using CS_2 gas, only Ho_2O_2S was formed as an intermediate product. At a sulfurization temperature above 873 K, Ho_2O_2S was formed in the initial stage of reaction, and single-phase δ-Ho_2S_3 was formed at 1323 K for 8 h instead of Ho_2O_2S. Furthermore, the influence of the addition of carbon black to the sulfurization of Ho_2O_3 powder using CS_2 gas was investigated, and the result implied that the reactions were accelerated slightly by the addition of carbon black.

文摘An optimized graphene/RuO2/S composite is prepared by hydrothermal growth of RuO2 particles on graphene oxide sheets as the positive electrode for rechargeable lithium-sulfur batteries. The electrode with 6.1 wt% RuO2 nanocrystals and a high sulfur content of 79.0 wt% delivers an optimal electrochemical performance with high residual capacities of 508 mAh g-1 after 200 cycles and 389 m Ah g-1 after800 cycles at 1 C with a low capacity decay of 0.054%. The RuO2 nanocrystals promote the redox reaction kinetics and facilitate the transformation of sulfur chemistry, leading to large improvements in reversibility and rate capability of the composite electrode. The density functional theory calculations signify the formation of Li–O and Ru–S bonds through chemical interactions between RuO2 and Li polysulfides while the adsorption energies between graphene and polysulfide species are much higher in the presence of RuO2 than that of the neat graphene acting alone. These discoveries support the efficient entrapment of polysulfides by the composite electrode to the benefit of enhanced cyclic stability of the battery.
文摘Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is a major air pollutant, especially in developing countries. Many trees are seriously impaired by SO2, while other species can mitigate air pollution by absorbing this gas. Planting appropriate tree species near industrial complexes is critical for aesthetic value and pollution mitigation. In this study, six landscape tree species typical of a subtropical area were investigated for their tolerance of SO2: Cinnamomum camphora (L.) J. Presl., Ilex rotunda Thunb., Lysidice rhodostegia Hance, Ceiba insignis (Kunth) P. E. Gibbs & Semir, Cassia surattensis Burm. f., and Michelia chapensis Dandy. We measured net photosynthesis rate, stomatal conductance, leaf sulfur content, relative water content, relative proline content, and other parameters under 1.31 mg·m-3 SO2 fumigation for eight days. The results revealed that the six species differed in their biochemical characteristics under SO2 stress. Based on these data, the most appropriate species for planting in SO2 polluted areas was I. rotunda, because it grew normally under SO2 stress and could absorb SO2.
文摘The influence of flux and sulfur content on YAG laser welding has been investigated, and the influencing factors and mechanism were discussed. The results show that both surface activating flux and surface active element S have fantastic effects on the YAG laser weld shape, that is to obviously increase the weld penetration and D/W ratio in various welding conditions. The mechanism is thought to be the change of surface tension temperature coefficient in weld pool, thus, the change of fluid flow paten in weld pool due to the flux and sulfur.
文摘5 heats of GCr15 bearing steel of different sulfur contents ranging from 0.009-0.092% （wt.）were smelted. The role of sulfur in bearing steel and its effect on contact fatigue properties andfracture toughness K<sub>IC</sub>Were studied. It was shown that as the sulfur content increases the sulfur content dissolved in the steelsubstrate remains unchanged. The best contact fatigue property appears at the sulfur content of0.045% （wt.）, and the influence of sulfur content on the fracture toughness of bearing steel is notobvious. Finally, the mechanism of the role of sulfur was investigated.
