文摘Catalytic oxidation desulfurization(CODS)technology has shown great promise for diesel desulfurization by virtue of its low cost,mild reaction conditions,and superior desulfurization performance.Herein,a series of FeMoO_(x)/LaTiO_(y)-z samples with diverse Fe/Mo ratios were prepared via a facile citric acid-assisted method.The impact of Fe incorporation on the dispersion and surface elemental states of Mo species,as well as oxygen species content of the synthesized FeMoO_(x)/LaTiO_(y)-z catalysts were systematically characterized using TEM,BET,UV-vis DRS,XPS,XANES,and reaction kinetics,and their CODS performances were examined for 4,6-DMDBT removal.Experimental results demonstrated that Fe/Mo ratio significantly affected the Ti−O bond strength,surface dispersion and electronic structure of Mo O_(2)species on FeMoO_(x)/LaTiO_(y)-z catalysts.FeMoO_(x)/LaTiO_(y)-2 catalyst showed outstanding cycling durability and the best CODS performance with almost 100%removal of 4,6-DMDBT from model oil within 75 min due to its proper MoO3 dispersion,optimal redox property,and the most oxygen vacancy concentration.Nevertheless,further enhancing Fe content led to the increased dispersion of Mo species,while the decrease active Mo species as well as the increase of steric effect for 4,6-DMDBT accessing to the catalytic reactive sites considerably increase the apparent activation energy of FeMoO_(x)/LaTiO_(y)-z(z>2)catalysts during the CODS process,thereby seriously suppressing their CODS performances.Moreover,Radical trapping experiments reveal that the·,generated by the activation of O_(2)at the active sites,catalytic oxidized 4,6-DMDBT to the product of 4,6-DMDBTO_(2),thereby enabling both deep desulfurization and recovery of high-value 4,6-DMDBTO_(2).These findings offer an alternative strategy to achieve ultra deep desulfurization as well as separate and recover high economic value sulfone substances from diesel.

文摘The chemical composition of seawater affects the desulfurization of chalcopyrite in flotation.In this study,desulfurization experiments of chalcopyrite were conducted in both deionized(DI)water and seawater.The results showed that,the copper grade of the concentrate obtained from seawater flotation decreased to 24.30%,compared to 24.60%in DI water.Concurrently,the recovery of chalcopyrite decreased from 51.39%to 38.67%,while the selectivity index(SI)also had a reduction from 2.006 to 1.798.The incorporation of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid(EDTA),sodium silicate(SS),and sodium hexametaphosphate(SHMP)yielded an enhancement in the SI value,elevating it from 1.798 to 1.897,2.250 and 2.153,separately.It is particularly noteworthy that an excess of EDTA resulted in a SI value of merely 1.831.The mechanism of action was elucidated through analysis of surface charge measurements,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR),extended Derjaguin-Landau Verwey-Overbeek(E-DLVO)theory,and density functional theory(DFT)calculations.

文摘MnCeO_(x)/P84 catalytic filters with spherical,flower-like,cubic and rod-like catalytic interfaces were synthesized respectively,and their catalytic activities in the NH_(3)-SCR reaction were investigated.The MnCeO_(x)/P84 catalytic filter with spherical catalytic interfaces(recorded as S-MnCeO_(x)/P84)exhibits the best catalytic denitration performance.The NO_(x)removal efficiency of S-MnCeO_(x)/P84 reaches the highest value of 98.6%at 160℃when the catalyst loading is 100 g/m^(2).At the same time,S-MnCeO_(x)/P84 exhibits good SO_(2)resistance and stability,achieving a NO_(x)removal rate of 83%at 190℃with 30 ppm SO_(2).The characterization results illustrate that the MnCeO_x active component in S-MnCeO_(x)/P84 is present in weak crystalline states,tightly wrapped around the surface of the filter fiber,and uniformly dispersed,and the mesopore is the main pore structure of the S-MnCeO_(x)/P84,which can provide a channel for the catalytic reaction to proceed.At the same time,transmission electron microscopy(TEM)characterization shows that y-MnO_(2)is the main form of MnO_(2)in the S-MnCeO_(x)/P84.Further analysis of H_(2)temperature programmed reduction(H_(2)-TPR).NH_(3)temperature programmed desorption(NH_(3)-TPD)and in-situ diffuse reflectance infrared spectra(DRIFTS)show that S-MnCeO_(x)/P84 has good redox ability at 100-200℃and has abundant Lewis acid sites and Bronsteds acid sites,which provides an important guarantee for its superior low-temperature NH_(3)-SCR denitration performance.

文摘In petroleum,mercaptan impurities generate malodorous fumes that pose risks to both human health and the environment,and leading to substandard oil quality.Lye desulfurization is a widely employed technique for eliminating mercaptans from oil.In traditional scrubber towers,lye and oil are poorly mixed,the desulfurization efficiency is low,and the lye consumption is high.To enhance washing efficiency,a droplet micromixer and corresponding fiber coalescence separator were developed.By optimizing the structure and operating parameters,more effective mixing and separation were achieved,and both caustic washing and desulfurization were enhanced.The proposed mixer/separator outperforms the industry standard by reducing the caustic loading by 30%and offers superior economic and engineering performances.The results of this study offer a direction for designing and optimizing a mercaptan removal unit to enhance the scrubbing effectiveness and decrease expenses to achieve more efficient and green production process.

文摘In this study,we present an extraction-coupled electro-catalytic oxidative desulfurization(EC-EODS)system that achieves efficient sulfur removal from fuel oils without external oxidants.The system utilizes an electrolyte composed of ionic liquids(ILs),NaCl,and H_(2)SO_(4),integrating extraction and electrochemical oxidation to effectively remove different aromatic sulfur compounds with sulfur removals of 100%.Additionally,H_(2)is co-produced at the cathode,supporting refinery processes and reducing H_(2)storage and transportation costs,thereby improving economic viability.Detailed mechanism analysis shows that IL selectively extracts and concentrates sulfur compounds,while NaCl and H2SO4 facilitate ClO^(-)generation,serving as the in-situ oxidant.The EC-EODS system operates without external catalysts,relying on graphite electrodes that generate superoxide radicals from ClO^(-).Moreover,a strategy for the separation of desulfurization products as well as the electrolyte is proposed as well.The EC-EODS system offers a sustainable,high-efficiency strategy for desulfurization,with economic benefits through sulfur oxidation and H_(2)co-generation.

文摘The development of highly active functionalized ionic liquids(ILs)as both extractants and catalysts for use in achieving deep desulfurization continues to pose challenges.In this study,a highly efficient oxidative desulfurization system was constructed,composed of dual-acidic ionic liquids(DILs)and H_(2)O_(2)-AcOH.The investigation results of four DILs prepared from different metal chlorides([HSO_(3)C_(3)NEt_(3)]Cl-MnCl_(n),MnCl_(n)=AlCl_(3),ZnCl_(2),CuCl_(2),FeCl_(3))in oxidative desulfurization showed that[HSO_(3)C_(3)NEt_(3)]Cl-AlCl_(3)had an outstanding catalytic effect and significantly promoted the oxidation of sulfides.With a 0.2 g[HSO_(3)C_(3)NEt_(3)]Cl-AlCl_(3),the removal rate of dibenzothiophene(DBT)reached 100%in 10 mL model oil under mild conditions at 55℃for 20 min.The key is its ability to induce the dismutation of su-peroxide anions(·O_(2)^(-)),which facilitates the generation of singlet oxygen(1 O_(2)).The efficient oxidation of DBT is accomplished through a predominantly^(1)O_(2)-mediated_(n)on-radical mechanism.[HSO_(3)C_(3)NEt_(3)]Cl-AlCl_(3)serves as a favorable medium for contact to be made between^(1)O_(2)and sulfides,which indicates an efficient catalytic-adsorption synergy.

文摘The development of an efficient dual-function catalytic-sorption system,which seamlessly integrates reaction and separation into a single step for extractant-free systems,represents a transformative advancement in oxidative desulfurization(ODS)process.In this work,we introduce a novel dualfunction amphiphilic biochar(Mo/CBC)catalyst,functionalized with MoO_(3-x)featuring abundant oxygen vacancies,for highly effective extractant-free ODS.The polarity of the biochar was precisely tailored by varying the amount of KOH,leading to the creation of amphiphilic carriers.Subsequent ball milling facilitated the successful loading of MoO_(3-x)onto the biochar surface via an impregnation-calcination route leveraging carbon reduction,resulting in the synthesis of amphiphilic Mo/CBC catalysts.The amphiphilic nature of these catalysts ensures their stable dispersion within the oil phase,while also facilitating their interaction with the oxidant H2O2 and the adsorption of sulfur-containing oxidation products.Characterization techniques,including EPR,XPS,and in situ XRD,verified the existence of abundant oxygen vacancies obtained by carbon reduction on the amphiphilic Mo/CBC catalysts,which significantly boosted their activity in an extractant-free ODs system.Remarkably,the amphiphilic Mo/CBC catalyst displayed exceptional catalytic performance,achieving a desulfurization efficiency of 99.6%in just 10 min without extraction solvent.DFT theoretical calculations further revealed that H_(2)O_(2)readily dissociates into two OH radicals on the O_(vac)-MoO_(3),overcoming a low energy barrier.This process was identified as a key contributor to the catalyst's outstanding ODS performance.Furthermore,other biochar sources,such as rice straw,bamboo,rapeseed oil cake,and walnut oil cake,were investigated to produce Mo-based amphiphilic biochar catalysts,which all showed excellent desulfurization performance.This work establishes a versatile and highly efficient dual-function catalytic-sorption system by designing amphiphilic biochar catalysts enriched with oxygen vacancies,paving the way for the development of universally applicable ODS catalysts for industrial applications.

文摘To explore the denitration mechanism of iron-vanadium/activated carbon(Fe-V/AC)catalysts in ammonia-selective catalytic reduction(NH_(3)-SCR),the physicochemical properties of Fe-V/AC catalysts were characterized.The denitration activities of the Fe-V/AC catalysts in the range of 150-300℃ were evaluated.The increase in denitration temperature leads to the highest and fastest recovery rate of NO conversion in the 10Fe-15V/AC catalyst.However,more metal oxides were attached to the catalyst surface as the V loading increased,and the accumulation occurred.The surface-active components are FeO,Fe_(2)O_(3),Fe_(3)O_(4),VO_(2),and V_(2)O_(5).In addition,the increase in the V loading induced a series of modification effects.A large amount of Fe^(3+)was reduced to Fe^(2+),and a large amount of V^(4+)was oxidized to V^(5+).The surface oxygen species(O_(α))were transformed into lattice oxygen(O_(β)).The presence of a large amount of V species deteriorated the pore-structure parameters and destroyed the oxygen-containing functional groups.Increasing the V loading can effectively increase the Lewis acid sites,thereby promoting NH_(3) adsorption and NO reduction and increasing the stretching vibration of weakly adsorbed ammonia species on the catalyst.The NH_(3) adsorption process produces a notable increase in the concentration of monodentate nitrite(NH_(4)^(+)).The NH_(3)-SCR denitration mechanism of the Fe-V/AC catalyst includes reaction gas adsorption,catalytic denitration of metal active components,and gas desorption.

文摘As a pyrometallurgical process,circulating fluidized bed(CFB) roasting has good potential for application in desulfurization of high-sulfur bauxite.The gas-solid distribution and reaction during CFB roasting of high-sulfur bauxite were simulated using the computational particle fluid dynamics(CPFD) method.The effect of primary air flow velocity on particle velocity,particle volume distribution,furnace temperature distribution and pressure distribution were investigated.Under the condition of the same total flow of natural gas,the impact of the number of inlets on the desulfurization efficiency,atmosphere mass fraction distribution and temperature distribution in the furnace was further investigated.
文摘For the treatment of the mixed flue gas desulfurization wastewater with high salinity by the biological fluidized bed process,the optimum temperature was 25-35℃,and the optimum hydraulic retention time was 10 h.When the influent quality was stable,the average concentration of COD,NH_(4)^(+)-N and TN in the inlet water was 210,11 and 16.3 mg/L,respectively,and their average concentration in the effluent was 54,0.32 and 4.09 mg/L,respectively.The treatment effect was good.When the incoming water quality of flue gas desulfurization wastewater fluctuated greatly,the effluent quality was still relatively stable after being treated by the biological fluidized bed,indicating that the biological fluidized bed process had a good ability to resist the impact of water quality in the treatment of high-salinity flue gas desulfurization wastewater.At the same time,the biological fluidized bed process provides a reference for high-salinity wastewater that is difficult to be biologically treated.

文摘The implementation of embedded selective catalytic reduction(SCR)denitration in chain grate during iron ore pelletizing process obviates additional flue gas heating.However,the influence of gas components and alkali metal on SCR denitration requires attention.The SCR denitration behavior in the preheating section of chain grate was investigated,and the combined influence mechanisms of H_(2)O(g),SO_(2),and potassium were revealed.The results show that the presence of H_(2)O(g)and SO_(2) in the flue gas decreases the NO conversion rate of the catalyst from 96.3%to 79.5%,while potassium adsorbed on the catalyst surface further reduces the NO conversion rate to 74.1%.H_(2)O(g),SO_(2),and potassium in the flue gas form sulfate and potassium salt on the catalyst surface,blocking the pore structure,thereby decreasing the gas adsorption capacity of the catalyst.Moreover,SO_(2) and potassium engage in competitive adsorption and reaction with NH_(3) and NO at the active sites on the catalyst surface,reducing the content and activity of the catalyst effective component.Increasing the flue gas temperature can promote the decomposition of ammonium sulfate and ammonium bisulfate on the catalyst surface,but it has little effect on potassium.Additionally,potassium will exacerbate sulfur poisoning of the catalyst.Hence,the embedded SCR denitration process requires electrostatic precipitation to eliminate the adverse impacts of potassium and thermal regime optimization to raise flue gas temperature to 350℃,thereby increasing NO conversion rate exceeding 85%.

文摘Development of clean desulfurization process that combines both efficient and environmentally friendly remains a significant challenge for diesel production.The photocatalytic oxidation desulfurization technology is regarded as a promising process depending on the superior electron transfer and visible light utilization of photocatalyst.Herein,the nonstoichiometry MoO_(3-x)with outstanding photoresponse ability is prepared and modified by imidazole-based ionic liquid[C_(12)mim]Cl to upgrade electronic structure.The interface H-bonding between MoO_(3-x)and[C_(12)mim]Cl regard as electronic transfer channel and the recombination of e^(-)-h^(+)pairs is effectively inhibited with the modification of[C_(12)mim]Cl.Deep desulfurization rate of 96.6%can be reached within 60 min and the MoO_(3-x)/[C_(12)mim]Cl(MoC_(12))photocatalyst demonstrated outstanding cyclic stability within 7 cycles in an extraction coupled photocatalytic oxidation desulfurization(ECPODS)system.The study provides a new perspective on enhancing photocatalytic desulfurization through defect engineering and surface modification.

文摘Desulfurization technology is rather difficult and urgently needed for carbon dioxide(CO_(2))utilization in industry.A new Cu(I)-based adsorbent was synthesized and examined for the capacity of removing carbonyl sulfide(COS)from a CO_(2)stream in an effort to solve the competitive adsorption between CO_(2)and COS and to seek opportunity to advance adsorption capacity.A wide range of character-ization techniques were used to investigate the physicochemical properties of the synthesized Cu(I)adsorbent featuringπ-complexation and their correlations with the adsorption performance.Meanwhile,the first principal calculation software CP2K was used to develop an understanding of the adsorption mechanism,which can offer useful guidance for the adsorbent regeneration.The synthesized Cu(I)adsorbent,prepared by using copper citrate and citric acid on the ZSM-5(SiO_(2)/Al_(2)O_(3)=25)carrier,outperformed other adsorbents with varying formulations and carriers in adsorption capacities.Through optimization of the preparation and adsorption conditions for various adsorbents,the breakthrough adsorption capacity(Qb)for COS was further enhanced from 2.19 mg/g to 15.36 mg/g.The formed stableπ-complex bonds between COS and Cu(I),as confirmed by density func-tional theory calculations,were verified by the significant improvement in the adsorption capacity after regeneration at 600°C.The above advantages render the novel synthesized Cu(I)adsorbent a promising candidate featuring cost-effectiveness,high efficacy and good regenerability for desulfurization from a CO_(2)stream.

文摘Practical applications of desulfurization gypsum are limited owing to its brittleness and low strength.To overcome these challenges,researchers have developed engineered desulfurization gypsum composites(EDGCs)by incorporating ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene(UHMWPE)fiber and sulfoaluminate cement(SAC).The mix ratio was optimized using response surface methodology(RSM).Experimental testing of EDGC under compressive and tensile loads led to the creation of a regression model that investigates the influence of variables and their interactions on the material’s compressive and tensile strengths.Additionally,microscopic morphology and hydration product composition were analyzed to explore the influence mechanism.The results indicated that EDGC’s compressive strength increased by up to 38.4%owing to a decreased water-binder ratio and higher SAC content.Similarly,tensile strength increased by up to 38.6%owing to increased SAC and fiber content.Moreover,EDGC demonstrated excellent strain-hardening behavior and multiple cracking characteristics,achieving a maximum tensile strain of nearly 3%.The research findings provide valuable insights for optimizing the performance of desulfurization gypsum.
