The results show that iron compounds can remarkably remove the S2 but cannot get rid of S2Oc2-, SO^2- and SO4^-2 in sodium aluminate solutions. The removal efficiency of S^2- using ferrous compound and ferric compound can reach 86.10% and 92.70% respectively when the iron compounds were added with a molar ratio of 2:1 compared with the sulfur in liquors at 100℃. Moreover, several same compounds are formed in those two desulfurization processes with ferrous or ferric compounds, including erdite, hematite, amorphous ferrous sulfide, polymerized sulfur-iron compounds and ferric sulfate. The major difference between these two processes is that the erdite generated from ferrous compounds at the initial reaction stage will convert to a sodium-free product FeS2 at the subsequent stage.展开更多

The limitation of iron (Fe) for phytoplankton growth in HNLC regions was confirmed by sulfur compounds (S) such as volcanic ash and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in batch cultures, whose chemical sediment of Fe3S4 showed 4.06 wt%. The technologies developed for iron fertilization since 1993 till now were not practical to provide sufficient amounts of bioavailable iron due to sedimentary iron sulfides induced by undersea volcanic sulfur compounds. The proposed technology for iron fertilization was improved to enhance the bioavailable iron to phytoplankton by keeping minimal sulfur compounds in HNLC regions. The low productivity of phytoplankton by grazing control in HNLC regions was 6% diatoms whose 52% was grazed by copepods and 42% by krill on the basis of data analysis in 2000 EisenEx Experiment at boundary of Antarctic and African tectonic plates. All of the previous iron fertilization experiments were conducted at volcanic sulfur compounds enriched HNLC regions. The present study revealed that the enhanced phytoplankton productivity in batch culture without sedimentary iron sulfides can be possible only if sulfur compounds are minimal, as is in Shag Rocks (53°S, 42°W) of South Georgia in Scotia Sea in the Southern Ocean.展开更多

Iron overload is a risk factor that triggers a series of health problems. The toxicity of iron is that iron can catalyze the formation of oxygen free radicals and can be used as a nutrient necessary for the growth of microorganisms and tumor cells. The sensitivity of human cells to iron toxicity varies widely. Causes of iron overload include genetic factors, behavioral factors and environmental factors. With the rapid development of modem industry, iron and its compound dust distribution industry and the increasingly widespread, in the iron pigment production, mechanical casting, iron ore mining and iron smelting operations will produce a lot of iron and its compound dust, Its impact on the human body has been of concern. Long-term exposure to iron and its compounds can cause different degrees of damage to the respiratory system, resulting in iron in vivo disorder. The relationship between iron metabolism and lung injury has also begun to be concerned, and maintaining iron homeostasis is important for lung injury and its protection.展开更多

The changes of apex angle of the drills before and after being used were used to evaluate machinability of gray cast irons. Effect of FeSi75+RE and FeSi75+Sr inoculants on mechanical properties, machinability and sensibility of gray cast iron used in cylinder block were investigated. Experimental results showed that gray cast iron treated with 60%FeSi75+40% RE inoculants exhibited tensile strength consistently at about 295 MPa along with good hardness and improved metallurgical quality. While gray cast iron inoculated with 20%FeSi75+80% Sr inoculants exhibited the best machinability, the lowest cross-section sensibility and the least microhardness difference. The tool flank wear of the drill increased correspondingly with the increase of the microhardness difference of the matrix, indicating the great effect of homogeneity of the matrix on the machinability of gray cast iron.展开更多

It was found that calcium compounds had great effects on the metallization rate of the reduction product, the order of the metallization rate of reduction product being CaCO3 > no additive > CaSO4 > CaCl2, which indicated that the addition of CaCO3 was more conducive to promoting the reduction of iron than other calcium compounds. Gas analysis showed that there were mainly two processes in the carbothermic reduction of VTC, a solid–solid and a solid–gas reaction. The concentrations of CO and CO2 were highest when CaCO3 was added, while that in a roasting system decreased the most when CaCl2 was added. X-ray diffraction(XRD) analysis showed that calcium compounds could change the reduction process of ilmenite in VTC. The phase compositions of the reduction products were changed from metallic iron(Fe) and anosovite(FeTi2O5) to metallic iron(Fe) and perovekite(CaTiO3) when calcium compounds were added. Additionally, CaSO4 and CaCl2 could significantly promote the growth of metallic iron particles, though the existence of Fe-bearing Mg2TiO4 in reduction products was not conducive to the reduction of iron. The formation of FeS would further hinder the reduction of iron after adding CaSO4.展开更多

It’s mainly related to hepcidin deficiency related to mutations in genes involved in hepcidin regulation. Iron overload increases the risk of disease such as liver cirrhosis, heart disease and diabetes. Two HFE genotypes have been commonly described in cases of iron overload, C282Y homozygosity and C282Y/H63D compound heterozygoty. The diagnosis of this rare disease now can be explored by biological and imaging tools. We report a case of compound heterozygous C282Y/H63D discovered by family screening for elevated serum ferritin.展开更多

High-resolution TEM (HRTEM) observation reveals that the nanoparticle of a-Fe was polycrystals or twins, which was real or quasi two-dimension in shape, and whose space orientation was strictly controlled by the graphene. Based on the experiment results, a possible growth model of the graphite encapsulated ct-Fe was proposed.展开更多

文摘Hereditary hemochromatosis is a condition characterized by iron overload, which is both treatable and preventable. It’s mainly related to hepcidin deficiency related to mutations in genes involved in hepcidin regulation. Iron overload increases the risk of disease such as liver cirrhosis, heart disease and diabetes. Two HFE genotypes have been commonly described in cases of iron overload, C282Y homozygosity and C282Y/H63D compound heterozygoty. The diagnosis of this rare disease now can be explored by biological and imaging tools. We report a case of compound heterozygous C282Y/H63D discovered by family screening for elevated serum ferritin.
文摘The intercalatants presence of Fe-KCl graphite intercalation compound (Fe-KCl G/C) is in the form of independent crystalline phase. In this paper, its distribution in the carbon interlayer, crystalline status and powder sizes have been studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) , small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). And the partial crystal structure of the GIC has been researched too.

文摘The graphite encapsulated a-Fe particles were prepared by reduction of stage-2 and stage-3 FeCI3 graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) with metallic potassium, X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) investigation and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation show that the reduction products of stage-2 FeCl3-GICs contains more abundant a-Fe nanoparticles than those of stage-3. High-resolution TEM (HRTEM) observation reveals that the nanoparticle of a-Fe was polycrystals or twins, which was real or quasi two-dimension in shape, and whose space orientation was strictly controlled by the graphene. Based on the experiment results, a possible growth model of the graphite encapsulated ct-Fe was proposed.
