However, the high activation barriers in the oxygen reduction reaction often make it the bottleneck of energy conversion processes; thus, high- performance oxygen reduction electrocatalysts are desired. At present, the best commercially available oxygen reduction catalyst is based on the precious metal Pt. However, it suffers from resource scarcity and unsatisfactory operational stability, hindering its widespread and large-scale application in clean and sustainable technologies. Nitrogen-doped graphene has excellent electrocatalytic properties for oxygen reduction. In this paper, a scalable method to prepare nitrogen-doped graphene with high quality was introduced, in which the graphene oxide prepared by high-gravity technology and urea was reacted under hydrothermal conditions. Accompanying the hydrothermal reaction, graphene oxide reduction and nitrogen doping were accomplished at the same time. The effect of the content of nitrogen on the performance of nitrogen-doped graphene was investigated. When the mass ratio (graphene oxide]urea) was 1:400, the nitrogen-doped graphene had the best oxygen reduction performance, Compared with the undoped samples, the initial reduction voltage of the nitrogen-doped samples distinctly shifted 45 mV to the right. When the voltage was - 1,0 V, the electron transfer number was 4.1, indicating good oxygen reduction activity. The preparation method is feasible, simple, and can be easily scaled up.展开更多

文摘In this study,an integrated technology is proposed for the absorption and utilization of CO_(2)in alkanolamine solution for the preparation of BaCO_(3)in a high-gravity environment.The effects of absorbent type,high-gravity factor,gas/liquid ratio,and initial BaCl2concentration on the absorption rate and amount of CO_(2)and the preparation of BaCO_(3)are investigated.The results reveal that the absorption rate and amount of CO_(2)follow the order of ethyl alkanolamine(MEA)>diethanol amine(DEA)>N-methyldiethanolamine(MDEA),and thus MEA is the most effective absorbent for CO_(2)absorption.The absorption rate and amount of CO_(2)under high gravity are higher than that under normal gravity.Notably,the absorption rate at 75 min under high gravity is approximately 2 times that under normal gravity.This is because the centrifugal force resulting from the high-speed rotation of the packing can greatly increase gas-liquid mass transfer and micromixing.The particle size of BaCO_(3)prepared in the rotating packed bed is in the range of 57.2—89 nm,which is much smaller than that prepared in the bubbling reactor(>100.3 nm),and it also has higher purity(99.6%)and larger specific surface area(14.119 m^(2)·g^(-1)).It is concluded that the high-gravity technology has the potential to increase the absorption and utilization of CO_(2)in alkanolamine solution for the preparation of BaCO_(3).This study provides new insights into carbon emissions reduction and carbon utilization.
文摘Electrochemical oxygen reduction is key to many clean and sustainable energy technologies, including proton exchange membrane fuel cells and metal-air batteries. However, the high activation barriers in the oxygen reduction reaction often make it the bottleneck of energy conversion processes; thus, high- performance oxygen reduction electrocatalysts are desired. At present, the best commercially available oxygen reduction catalyst is based on the precious metal Pt. However, it suffers from resource scarcity and unsatisfactory operational stability, hindering its widespread and large-scale application in clean and sustainable technologies. Nitrogen-doped graphene has excellent electrocatalytic properties for oxygen reduction. In this paper, a scalable method to prepare nitrogen-doped graphene with high quality was introduced, in which the graphene oxide prepared by high-gravity technology and urea was reacted under hydrothermal conditions. Accompanying the hydrothermal reaction, graphene oxide reduction and nitrogen doping were accomplished at the same time. The effect of the content of nitrogen on the performance of nitrogen-doped graphene was investigated. When the mass ratio (graphene oxide]urea) was 1:400, the nitrogen-doped graphene had the best oxygen reduction performance, Compared with the undoped samples, the initial reduction voltage of the nitrogen-doped samples distinctly shifted 45 mV to the right. When the voltage was - 1,0 V, the electron transfer number was 4.1, indicating good oxygen reduction activity. The preparation method is feasible, simple, and can be easily scaled up.

文摘Surface engineering plays a crucial role in improving the performance of high energy materials,and polydopamine(PDA)is widely used in the field of energetic materials for surface modification and functionalization.In order to obtain high-quality HMX@PDA-based PBX explosives with high sphericity and a narrow particle size distribution,composite microspheres were prepared using co-axial droplet microfluidic technology.The formation mechanism,thermal behavior,mechanical sensitivity,electrostatic spark sensitivity,compressive strength,and combustion performance of the microspheres were investigated.The results show that PDA can effectively enhance the interfacial interaction between the explosive particles and the binder under the synergistic effect of chemical bonds and the physical"mechanical interlocking"structure.Interface reinforcement causes the thermal decomposition temperature of the sample microspheres to move to a higher temperature,with the sensitivity to impact,friction,and electrostatic sparks(for S-1)increasing by 12.5%,31.3%,and 81.5%respectively,and the compressive strength also increased by 30.7%,effectively enhancing the safety performance of the microspheres.Therefore,this study provides an effective and universal strategy for preparing high-quality functional explosives,and also provides some reference for the safe use of energetic materials in practical applications.

文摘In this work,the generation of high signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)single-frequency microwave signal without noise sidebands is demonstrated based on the interaction of integrated all-fiber lasers.The microwave signals are generated by the interference between a narrow linewidth Brillouin pump light from a single-frequency laser and the Stokes light generated by it.Firstly,the linewidths of the Stokes lights are compressed to~43 Hz based on the stimulated Brillouin scattering(SBS)effect,which ensures that the frequency noise is as low as possible.And then,the relative intensity noise(RIN)of the first order Stokes light is reduced by 21 dB/Hz based on the noise dynamics principle in cascaded SBS effect.By simultaneously reducing the frequency noise and the intensity noise of the coherent signals,the noise sidebands of microwave signals are completely suppressed.As result,the SNR of the microwave signal is improved from 48 dB to 84 dB at the first-order Brillouin frequency shift of 9.415 GHz.Meanwhile,a microwave signal with a SNR of 70 dB is generated at the second-order Brillouin frequency shift of 18.827 GHz.This kind of microwave signals with narrow linewidth and high SNR can provide higher detection resolution and higher transmission efficiency for applications on radar,satellite communication and so on.

文摘Lactic acid bacteria and the fermentation environment interact to form an intertwined system.Lactic acid bacteria are constantly evolving to adapt to different fermentation environments,causing changes in their physiological processes.To achieve a targeted improvement of their adaptability to various environments,a detail analysis of their evolutionary physiological processes is required.While several studies have been carried out in the past by using single-omics techniques to investigate their response to environmental stress,most researchers are now using a multi-omics approach to explore more detail in the biological regulatory networks and molecular mechanisms of lactic acid bacteria in response to environmental stress,thereby overcoming the limitations of single-omics analysis.In this review,we describe the various single-omics approaches that have been used to study environmental stress in lactic acid bacteria,present the advantages of various multi-omics combined analysis approaches,and discuss the potential and practicality of applying emerging single-cell transcriptomics and single-cell metabolomics techniques to the molecular mechanism study of microbes response to environmental stress.Multi-omics approaches enable the accurate identification of complex microbial physiological processes in different environments,allow people to comprehensively reveal the molecular mechanisms of microbes response to stress from different perspectives.Single-cell omics techniques,analyze the targeted regulation of microbial functions in a multi-dimensional space,provides a new perspective on understanding microbes responses environment stress.
