The effects of w（CaO）/w（SiO_2） ratio, anthracite ratio, and reduction temperature and time on the recovery and size of iron nuggets and on the Al_2O_3 grade of the calcium aluminate slag were investigated through thermodynamic calculations and experiments. The optimized process conditions were the bauxite/anthracite/slaked lime weight ratio of 100：16.17：59.37, reduction temperature of 1450°C and reduction time of 20 min. Under these conditions, high-quality iron nuggets and calcium aluminate slag were obtained. The largest size and the highest recovery rate of iron nuggets were 11.42 mm and 92.79wt%, respectively. The calcium aluminate slag mainly comprised Ca_2 SiO_4 and Ca_（12）Al_（14）O_（33）, with small amounts of Fe Al_2O_4, CaAl_2O_4, and Ca_2Al_2SiO_7.展开更多

However, the response of global black carbon(BC) aging to emission changes remains unclear. Using the Community Atmosphere Model version 6 with a machine-learning-integrated four-mode version of the Modal Aerosol Module, we quantify global BC aging responses to emission reductions for 2011–2018 and for 2050 and 2100 under carbon neutrality. During 2011–18, global trends in BC aging degree(mass ratio of coatings to BC, R_(BC)) exhibited marked regional disparities, with a significant increase in China(5.4% yr^(-1)), which contrasts with minimal changes in the USA, Europe, and India. The divergence is attributed to opposing trends in secondary organic aerosol(SOA) and sulfate coatings, driven by regional changes in the emission ratios of corresponding coating precursors to BC(volatile organic compounds-VOCs/BC and SO_(2)/BC). Projections under carbon neutrality reveal that R_(BC) will increase globally by 47%(118%) in 2050(2100), with strong convergent increases expected across major source regions. The R_(BC) increase, primarily driven by enhanced SOA coatings due to sharper BC reductions relative to VOCs, will enhance the global BC mass absorption cross-section(MAC) by 11%(17%) in 2050(2100).Consequently, although the global BC burden will decline sharply by 60%(76%), the enhanced MAC partially offsets the magnitude of the decline in the BC direct radiative effect, resulting in the moderation of global BC DRE decreases to 88%(92%) of the BC burden reductions in 2050(2100). This study highlights the globally enhanced BC aging and light absorption capacity under carbon neutrality, thereby partly offsetting the impact of BC direct emission reductions on future changes in BC radiative effects globally.展开更多

文摘The limited high-temperature oxidation resistance of Mg alloys is a key factor restricting their development and application.The addition of some rare earth elements(REs),owing to their unique physical and chemical properties,can significantly enhance the oxidation resistance of Mg alloys.Based on our previous study,we conclude that REs such as Gd,Y,and Ce enhance the oxidation resistance of Mg-RE alloys.This article comprehensively reviews recent research progress on high-temperature oxidation behavior and the potential mechanism in Mg-RE alloys.Based on the thermodynamic and kinetic analyses,the evolution of the complex oxide system formed during the high-temperature oxidation of Mg-RE alloys is first summarized.The diffusion behavior and concentration control mechanisms of REs during the oxidation process and how these mechanisms affect the sustained growth of the oxide film and antioxidant properties were elucidated.Moreover,the different structures of the oxide films were classified,and their properties were discussed.Finally,this paper introduces the applications of commonly used REs in Mg alloys and frontier research on their oxidation mechanisms.Based on the above review,we propose that future research perspectives can be explored in terms of expanding the experimental temperature range for oxidation tests,optimizing the chemical composition by adding trace REs to study their synergistic mechanism,revealing the underlying oxidation mechanism through advanced in situ microscopic characterization methods,and investigating the mechanical properties of oxide films using diverse approaches.

文摘TiB_(2)coatings can significantly enhance the high-temperature oxidation resistance of molybdenum,which would broaden the application range of molybdenum and alloys thereof.However,traditional methods for preparing TiB_(2)coatings have disadvantages such as high equipment costs,complicated processes,and highly toxic gas emissions.This paper proposes an environmentally friendly method,which requires inexpensive equipment and simple processing,for preparing TiB_(2)coating on molybdenum via electrophoretic deposition within Na3AlF6-based molten salts.The produced TiB_(2)layer had an approximate thickness of 60μm and exhibited high density,outstanding hardness(38.2 GPa)and robust adhesion strength(51 N).Additionally,high-temperature oxidation experiments revealed that,at900℃,the TiB_(2)coating provided effective protection to the molybdenum substrate against oxidation for 3 h.This result indicates that the TiB_(2)coating prepared on molybdenum using molten salt electrophoretic deposition possesses good high-temperature oxidation resistance.

文摘In this study,the design,analysis,manufacturing,and testing of a 3D-printed conformal microstrip array antenna for high-temperature environments is presented.3D printing technology is used to fabricate a curved ceramic substrate,and laser sintering and microdroplet spraying processes are used to add the conductive metal on the curved substrate.The problems of gain loss,bandwidth reduction,and frequency shift caused by high temperatures are addressed by using a proper antenna design,with parasitic patches,slots,and metal resonant cavities.The antenna prototype is characterized by the curved substrates and the conductive metals for the power dividers,the patch,and the ground plane;its performance is examined up to a temperature of 600℃in a muffle furnace and compared with the results from the numerical analysis.The results show that the antenna can effectively function at 600℃and even higher temperatures.

文摘The energy transition inspired by carbon neutrality targets and the increasing threat of extreme events raise multi-objective development requirements for power systems.This paper proposes a multi-objective resource allocation model to determine the type,number and location of flexible resources to increase the values of resilience,carbon reduction and renewable energy consumption.To evaluate the values of resilience,a restoration model for transmission systems is established that considers the coordination of fossil-fuel generators,energy storage systems(ESSs)and renewable energy generators in building restoration paths.The collaborative power-carbon-tradable green certificate(TGC)market model is then applied to evaluate the resource values in terms of carbon reduction and renewable energy consumption.Finally,the model is formulated as a mixed-integer linear programming(MILP)with a nonconvex feasible domain,and the normalized normal constraint(NNC)method is applied to obtain approximate Pareto frontiers for decision makers.Case studies validate the effectiveness of the proposed model in improving multi-factor values and analyze the impact of resource regulation capacity on values of restoration and carbon reduction.

文摘Controllable synthesis of ultrathin metallene nanosheets and rational design of their spatial arrangement in favor of electrochemical catalysis are critical for their renewable energy applications.Here,a biomimetic design of“Trunk-Branch-Leaf”strategy is proposed to prepare the ultrathin edge-riched Zn-ene“leaves”with a thickness of~2.5 nm,adjacent Zn-ene cross-linked with each other,which are supported by copper nanoneedle“branches”on copper mesh“trunks,”named as Zn-ene/Cu-CM.The resulting superstructure enables the formation of an interconnected network and multiple channels,which can be used as an electrocatalytic CO_(2) reduction reaction(CO_(2)RR)electrode to allow a fast charge and mass transfer as well as a large electrolyte reservoir.By virtue of the distinctive structure,the obtained Zn-ene/Cu-CM electrode exhibits excellent selectivity and activity toward CO production with a maximum Faradaic efficiency of 91.3%and incredible partial current density up to 40 mA cm^(−2),outperforming most of the state-of-the-art Zn-based electrodes for CO_(2) reduction.The phenolphthalein color probe combined with in situ attenuated total reflection-infrared spectroscopy uncovered the formation of the localized pseudo-alkaline microenvironment at the interface of the Zn-ene/Cu-CM electrode.Theoretical calculations confirmed that the localized pH as the origin is responsible for the adsorption of CO_(2) at the interface and the generation of *COOH and *CO intermediates.This study offers valuable insights into developing efficient electrodes through synergistic regulation of reaction microenvironments and active sites,thereby facilitating the electrolysis of practical CO_(2) conversion.

文摘Promoting the synergistic governance of pollution control(PC)and carbon reduction(CR)in the agricultural sector was an important way for the Chinese government to implement the“dual carbon”initiative and respond to climate change.Based on the data of China’s crop production from 31 provincial-level regions from 1997 to 2022,this paper constructs a framework consisting of spatiotemporal evolution,synergy effect measurement,differences in contributions across regions,and influencing factors analysis to reveal the relationship between agricultural PC and CR.The results showed that the annual growth rates of pollutant emissions and carbon emissions were 1.85%and 0.79%,respectively.However,the annual decline rates of their emission intensities were 3.14%and 4.32%,respectively.This indicated that China’s actions to reduce pollution and carbon emissions in agriculture have achieved good results,that the effect of PC was weaker than that of CR and had an obvious“policy node effect.”Simultaneously,the synergy between PC and CR evolved from“basic coordination”to“basic imbalance.”The contribution of inter-regional differences was relatively large,while intra-regional differences were smaller,highlighting the importance of reducing regional disparities in promoting the synergistic governance of PC and CR.The basic conditions,industrial structure,input intensity,and development potential of agricultural development were key factors in widening the coupling coordination gap between PC and CR,and the influence of these significant factors exhibited clear spatiotemporal heterogeneity.These findings have provided important evidence for understanding China’s agricultural environmental governance strategies and could offer experiential insights for developing countries in advancing the coordinated governance of agricultural PC and CR.

文摘Heteroatom-doped carbon is considered a promising alternative to commercial Pt/C as an efficient catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR).This study presents the synthesis of iron-loaded,sulfur and nitrogen co-doped carbon(Fe/SNC)via in situ incorporation of 2-aminothiazole molecules into zeolitic imidazolate framework-8(ZIF-8)through coordination between metal ions and organic ligands.Sulfur and nitrogen doping in carbon supports effectively modulates the electronic structure of the catalyst,increases the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area,and exposes more Fe-N_(x)active centers.Fe-loaded,S and N co-doped carbon with Fe/S molar ratio of 1:10(Fe/SNC-10)exhibits a half-wave potential of 0.902 V vs.RHE.After 5000 cycles of cyclic voltammetry,its half-wave potential decreases by only 20 mV vs.RHE,indicating excellent stability.Due to sulfur s lower electronegativity,the electronic structure of the Fe-N_(x)active center is modulated.Additionally,the larger atomic radius of sulfur introduces defects into the carbon support.As a result,Fe/SNC-10 demonstrates superior ORR activity and stability in alkaline solution compared with Fe-loaded N-doped carbon(Fe/NC).Furthermore,the zinc-air battery assembled with the Fe/SNC-10 catalyst shows enhanced performance relative to those assembled with Fe/NC and Pt/C catalysts.This work offers a novel design strategy for advanced energy storage and conversion applications.

文摘The development of Pt-free catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)is a great issue for meeting the cost challenges of proton exchange membrane fuel cells(PEMFCs)in commercial applications.In this work,a series of RuCo/C catalysts were synthesized by NaBH4 reduction method under the premise that the total metal mass percentage was 20%.X-ray diffraction(XRD)patterns and scanning electron microscopy(SEM)confirmed the formation of single-phase nanoparticles with an average size of 33 nm.Cyclic voltammograms(CV)and linear sweep voltammograms(LSV)tests indicated that RuCo(2:1)/C catalyst had the optimal ORR properties.Additionally,the RuCo(2:1)/C catalyst remarkably sustained 98.1% of its activity even after 3000 cycles,surpassing the performance of Pt/C(84.8%).Analysis of the elemental state of the catalyst surface after cycling using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)revealed that the Ru^(0) percentage of RuCo(2:1)/C decreased by 2.2%(from 66.3% to 64.1%),while the Pt^(0) percentage of Pt/C decreased by 7.1%(from 53.3% to 46.2%).It is suggested that the synergy between Ru and Co holds the potential to pave the way for future low-cost and highly stable ORR catalysts,offering significant promise in the context of PEMFCs.

文摘Accelerated industrialization combined with over-applied nitrogen fertilizers results in serious nitrate pollution insurface and ground water,disrupting the balance of the global nitrogen cycle.Electrochemical nitrate reduction(eNO_(3)RR)emerges as an attractive strategy to simultaneously enable nitrate removal and decentralized ammo-nia fabrication,restoring the globally perturbed nitrogen cycle.However,complex deoxygenation-hydrogenationprocesses and sluggish proton-electron transfer kinetics significantly hinder practical application of eNO_(3)RR.In this study,we developed carbon-coated Cu-Ni bimetallic catalysts derived from metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)to facilitate eNO_(3)RR.The unique structural features of catalyst promote enhanced synergy between Cuand Ni,effectively addressing critical challenges in nitrate reduction.Comprehensive structural and electrochem-ical analysis demonstrate that electrochemical nitrate-to-nitrite conversion mainly takes place on active Cu sites,the introduction of Ni could efficiently accelerate the generation of aquatic active hydrogen,promoting the hy-drogenation of oxynitrides during eNO_(3)RR.In addition,Ni introduction could push up the d-band center of thecatalyst,thus enhancing the adsorption and activation of nitrate and the corresponding intermediates.Detailedreaction pathways for nitrate-to-ammonia conversion are illuminated by rotating disk electrode(RDE),in-situFourier-transform infrared spectroscopy,in-situ Raman spectrum and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS).Benefiting from the synergistic effect of Cu and Ni,optimum catalyst exhibited excellent nitrate reductionperformance.This work provides a new idea for elucidating the underlying eNO_(3)RR reaction mechanisms andcontributes a promising strategy for designing efficient bimetallic electrocatalysts.

文摘Thermochemical sulfate reduction(TSR)is an important organic-inorganic reaction that occurs within sedimentary basins and alters the original chemical compositions and isotopic structures of hydrocarbons in natural gases.We used the GC-Py-GC-IRMS method to study TSR and obtained a novel finding related to intramolecular carbon isotope fractionation in natural propane.The results show that theΔC-T(δ^(13)C_(central)-13 C_(terminal))andδ^(13)C_(central)values significantly increased to 44.7‰and 11.9‰,respectively,with increasing TSR alteration.In contrast,the 13 C_(terminal)values of propane remained largely unaltered by the TSR reaction.This difference in position-specific isotope fractionation can be attributed to the central carbon’s reactivity being higher than that of terminal carbon during TSR.In sum,the results indicate that theδ^(13)C_(terminal)values of propane can serve as robust indicators for source rock identification of natural gas altered by post-generation reactions such as TSR and anaerobic microbial oxidation.

文摘The hydrogen reduction kinetics of tungsten trioxide(WO_(3))was investigated via non-isothermal thermogravimetric analysis.Under the local gas-solid reduction conditions,the particle morphology of tungsten powders was found to be consistent with that of raw material WO_(3).The removal of oxygen from tungsten oxide during hydrogen reduction led to the formation of porous structures between the reduced particles,which were obviously different from the polyhedral single-crystal configuration of tungsten powders obtained via chemical vapor deposition.Moreover,the two-stage hydrogen reduction mechanisms of WO_(3) under the local gas-solid reduction conditions can be described using the composite autocatalytic function.The activation energies of the first and second stages of the hydrogen reduction of WO_(3) were determined to be 121 and 135 kJ/mol,respectively.

文摘Seawater zinc-air batteries are promising energy storage devices due to their high energy density and utilization of seawater electrolytes.However,their efficiency is hindered by the sluggish oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)and chlorideinduced degradation over conventional catalysts.In this study,we proposed a universal synthetic strategy to construct heteroatom axially coordinated Fe–N_(4) single-atom seawater catalyst materials(Cl–Fe–N_(4) and S–Fe–N_(4)).X-ray absorption spectroscopy confirmed their five-coordinated square pyramidal structure.Systematic evaluation of catalytic activities revealed that compared with S–Fe–N_(4),Cl–Fe–N_(4) exhibits smaller electrochemical active surface area and specific surface area,yet demonstrates higher limiting current density(5.8 mA cm^(−2)).The assembled zinc-air batteries using Cl–Fe–N_(4) showed superior power density(187.7 mW cm^(−2) at 245.1 mA cm^(−2)),indicating that Cl axial coordination more effectively enhances the intrinsic ORR activity.Moreover,Cl–Fe–N_(4) demonstrates stronger Cl−poisoning resistance in seawater environments.Chronoamperometry tests and zinc-air battery cycling performance evaluations confirmed its enhanced stability.Density functional theory calculations revealed that the introduction of heteroatoms in the axial direction regulates the electron center of Fe single atom,leading to more active reaction intermediates and increased electron density of Fe single sites,thereby enhancing the reduction in adsorbed intermediates and hence the overall ORR catalytic activity.

文摘Iron and steel industry is one of the main sources of air pollution emissions in China.The sintering process is an important link in the blast furnace ironmaking process,but it is also accompanied by a large number of pollutants.Under the background of ultra-low emissions,iron and steel enterprises urgently need to upgrade their existing processes to address the existing process in practical application problems.In this study,a steel group in Gansu Province was taken as an example.By comparing and analyzing the pollutant emission characteristics before and after the ultra-low emission retrofit,the collaborative control effect of the combined process on SO_(2),NO_(x),particulate matter,and dioxins after the new retrofit was systematically evaluated.The results show that after the retrofit,the concentrations of particulate matter,SO_(2) and NO_(x) have dropped to near-zero levels,and the dioxin removal efficiency has reached 98.87%,with all indicators being better than the national ultra-low emission standards.The study confirms that the optimal combination of multi-pollutant collaborative treatment technologies is the key to achieving efficient emission reduction,among which selective catalytic reduction technology has a particularly significant synergistic removal effect on NO_(x) and dioxins.This study provides an important technical reference and practical basis for the ultra-low emission retrofit of the steel industry,and has important guiding significance for promoting the green retrofit of the industry.Its ultra-low emission retrofit is of great significance for achieving green and low-carbon development.

文摘Converting CO_(2) into methanol(CH_(3)OH),a high-value-added liquid-phase product,through efficient and highly selective photocatalysis remains a significant challenge.Herein,we present a straightforward cation exchange strategy for the in-situ growth of BiVO_(4) on an InVO_(4) substrate to generate a Z-scheme heterojunction of InVO_(4)/BiVO_(4) .This in-situ partial transformation approach endows the InVO_(4)/BiVO_(4) heterojunction with a tightly connected interface,resulting in a significant improvement in charge separation efficiency between InVO_(4) and BiVO_(4).Moreover,the construction of the heterojunction reduces the formation energy barrier of the ^(*)COOH intermediate during the photoreduction of CO_(2) and increases the desorption energy barrier of the ^(*)CO intermediate,facilitating the deep reduction of ^(*)CO.Consequently,the InVO_(4)/BiVO_(4) heterojunction is capable of photocatalytic CO_(2) reduction to CH_(3)OH with high efficiency and selectivity.Under conditions where water serves as the electron source and a light intensity of 100 m W/cm^(2),the yield of CH_(3)OH reaches 130.5 μmol g^(-1)h^(-1) with a selectivity of 92 %,outperforming photocatalysts reported under similar conditions.
