The speed in killing the strains tested, by using a low-temperature plasma, was the highest with E. Coli, then S. Aureus and B. Subtilis var niger spore. The results of the scanning electron microscope showed that the low-temperature plasma destroyed the outer structure of the bacteria and that the vegetative form was more susceptible to the inactivation effect of the low-temperature plasma than was the spore. This indicated that the effects of the high voltage and high velocity particle flow, in plasma, penetrating through the outer structure of the bacteria might play a dominant role during the inactivation of the bacteria.展开更多

The effect of OP-10 addition on the activity of Cu/ZnO for the slurry phase methanol synthesis at 150℃ was evaluated. The results showed that Cu/ZnO prepared with addition of 8% OP-10 （denoted as C8） exhibited the promoted activity for the methanol synthesis. The conversion of CO and the STY （space time yield） of methanol were 42.5% and 74.6% higher than those of Cu/ZnO prepared without addition of OP-10 （denoted as CO）, respectively. The precursor of C8 contained more aurichalcite and rosasite, and the concerted effect of Cu-Zn in C8 was found to be stronger than that in CO. Compared with CO, C8 showed smaller particle size, lower reduction temperature and larger BET and Cu surface areas.展开更多

It was found that the addition of Fe enhanced the catalytic performance at low-temperature. Mn-Fe/USY catalyst yielded nearly 100% NO conversion in a range of temperature from 423 to 573 K at a space velocity of 36 000 cm3g^-1·h^-1. Coexistence of manganese and iron oxides enhanced the dispersion of the supported oxides, no visible phase of the oxides can be observed on catalyst. The addition of Fe enhanced the number and strength of the Bronsted and Lewis acid sites on the surface of the catalyst, which might promote the absorption of NH3 to form active intermediate and enhance the catalytic performance at low-temperature.展开更多

Moreover, the effect of different agents on hydrate formation and the low-temperature rheology of designed polyalcohol drilling fluid were tested, respectively. The results show that clay can promote gas hydrate growth, while modified starch and polyalcohol can inhibit hydrate formation to some extent, and PVP K90 has a good performance on hydrate inhibition. The influence of clay on low-temperature rheology of polyglycols drilling fluid is notable. Therefore, the clay-free polyalcohol drilling fluid is suitable for deep water and marine gas hydrate drilling under optimal conditions.展开更多

文摘The paleo-geothermal gradient is a crucial parameter for converting the thermal history to the exhumation history.However,the precise estimation of this parameter has been a challenge.This paper presents a simple two-step method to model the paleo-geothermal gradient using low-temperature thermochronology.(1)It uses the Monte Carlo approach to generate thermal histories in a vertical section randomly and calculates the entire thermal history within the goodnessof-fit thresholds based on different paleo-geothermal gradients.(2)It selects the optimum paleogeothermal gradient by comparing the entire thermal history within different goodness-of-fit thresholds.We validated the method with apatite(U-Th)/He and fission track data collected from two drill cores in the Haiyuan-Liupanshan region.The result revealed that the best-fit paleo-geothermal gradient was~42℃/km during the Early Cretaceous–Miocene and has decreased rapidly to 20℃/km since~10 Ma.The crust thickening in the study area may explain the rapid reduction in the paleogeothermal gradient since~10 Ma.Our results are consistent with earlier studies in the region,suggesting that our simple and more intuitive approach provides an alternative method for paleogeothermal gradient modeling.

文摘In igneous-intruded coal seams,coal undergoes significant metamorphism,which critically alters its pore structure and oxygen consumption dynamics,thereby elevating its spontaneous combustion tendency.This study investigates the specific surface area,pore volume,structure complexity/connectivity,heterogeneity/local features of pore size distribution,and oxygen consumption dynamics of igneous metamorphic coal through N_(2)/CO_(2) isothermal adsorption tests and low-temperature oxidation experiments,and elucidates the influence mechanisms of pore structure evolution on oxygen consumption dynamics during low-temperature oxidation.With increasing metamorphic degree,igneous metamorphic coal exhibits a more pronounced reduction in specific surface area during oxidation,while the increase in structure complexity due to coal-oxygen reactions is suppressed.Thermally metamorphic coal demonstrates accelerated oxygen consumption,with oxidation amplifying the difference in reaction rates compared to raw coal.Key mechanisms include oxidation-induced reduction in mesopore complexity and micropore volume,decreased dominance of small-pore-volume apertures,and increased heterogeneity,collectively leading to a lower half-oxygen-consuming temperature and steeper oxygen consumption curves.Simultaneously,increased pore volume/complexity and reduced uniformity/connectivity act synergistically to enhance oxygen consumption capacity,highlighting the coupling between pore structure evolution and oxidation behavior in igneous metamorphic coal.This study provides theoretical insights into the pore-oxygen coupling mechanisms governing coal spontaneous combustion in igneous intrusion areas.

文摘Lithium-ion batteries(LIBs),while dominant in energy storage due to high energy density and cycling stability,suffer from severe capacity decay,rate capability degradation,and lithium dendrite formation under low-temperature(LT)operation.Therefore,a more comprehensive and systematic understanding of LIB behavior at LT is urgently required.This review article comprehensively reviews recent advancements in electrolyte engineering strategies aimed at improving the low-temperature operational capabilities of LIBs.The study methodically examines critical performance-limiting mechanisms through fundamental analysis of four primary challenges:insufficient ionic conductivity under cryogenic conditions,kinetically hindered charge transfer processes,Li+transport limitations across the solidelectrolyte interphase(SEI),and uncontrolled lithium dendrite growth.The work elaborates on innovative optimization approaches encompassing lithium salt molecular design with tailored dissociation characteristics,solvent matrix optimization through dielectric constant and viscosity regulation,interfacial engineering additives for constructing low-impedance SEI layers,and gel-polymer composite electrolyte systems.Notably,particular emphasis is placed on emerging machine learning-guided electrolyte formulation strategies that enable high-throughput virtual screening of constituent combinations and prediction of structure-property relationships.These artificial intelligence-assisted rational design frameworks demonstrate significant potential for accelerating the development of next-generation LT electrolytes by establishing quantitative composition-performance correlations through advanced data-driven methodologies.

文摘Protons emerge as superior charge carriers due to the lowest mass-to-charge ratio,ultra-high natural abundance,and the smallest ionic radius.Herein,2.0 M H_(2) SO_(4) dissolved in EG(ethylene glycol)/H_(2)O cosolvent is investigated as an aqueous proton battery electrolyte,which not only enhances the cycling performance of MoO_(3) nanorod anode but also improves its low-temperature electrochemical performance.Specifically,the EG tightly adsorbs onto the surface of MoO_(3) nanorods,thereby inhibiting the corrosion from H_(2)O molecules in the electrolyte and suppressing the dissolution of MoO_(3).In addition,EG molecule disturbs the hydrogen-bond network between H_(2)O molecules,which greatly decreases the freezing point of the electrolyte,endowing the MoO_(3) nanorods with excellent low-temperature electrochemical performance.Therefore,the MoO_(3) nanorods exhibit a capacity retention of 96.9%after 2000 cycles at a current density of 10 A g^(-1)in a three-electrode system.After assembling with CuHCF cathode,under-40℃,the full battery displays negligible capacity decay for over 2500 cycles at 1 A g^(-1).These results indicate that the cosolvent strategy has the promising potential in enhancing the performance of aqueous proton batteries.

文摘To completely recover valuable elements and reduce the amount of waste,the impact of phosphoric acid on the decomposition of rare earth,fluorine and phosphorus during cyclic leaching was studied based on the characteristics of low-tempe rature sulfuric acid deco mposition.When a single monazite was leached using 75 wt% H_(2)SO_(4) solution with phosphoric acid,the size and number of monazite particles in the washing slag gradually decrease with the increase in phosphoric acid content in the leaching solution.The monazite phase can hardly be found in the slag when the phosphoric acid content reaches 70 g/L,which indicates that phosphoric acid is favorable for monazite decomposition.The mixed rare earth concentrate was leached by 75 wt% H_(2)SO_(4) containing 70 g/L phosphoric acid,the mineral compositions of the washing slag are only gypsum and unwashed rare earth sulfuric acid.After cyclic leaching of75 wt% H_(2)SO_(4),the mineral compositions of the primary leaching washing slag are mainly undecomposed monazite,rare earth sulfate and calcium sulfate.However,monazite is not found in the mineral phase of the second and third leaching washing slag.The leaching rates of rare earth and phosphorus gradually increase with the increase in cyclic leaching times.In addition,the phosphoric acid content in the leaching solution increases with the increase in the number of cyclic leaching time.However,the rising trend decreases when the phosphoric acid content reaches 50 g/L by adsorption and crystallization of phosphoric acid.A small amount of water can be used to clean the leaching residue before washing to recover the more soluble phosphorus acid according to the difference of dissolution between phosphoric acid and rare earth sulfuric acid.

文摘Single-atom catalysts(SACs)have demonstrated excellent performance in heterogeneous catalytic reactions owing to their maximized atomic efficiency,distinctive geometric,and electronic configurations.However,the efficacy of SACs remains limited for certain reactions requiring simultaneous activation of multiple reactants over metallic active sites.Herein,we report an atomically dispersed Pt1Ru1 dual-atom pair site anchored on nanodiamond@graphene(ND@G)for CO oxidation.The Pt1Ru1 dual-atom catalyst shows an exceptional turnover frequency(TOF)of 17.6.10^(-2)s^(-1)at significantly lower temperature(30℃),achieving a tenfold increase in TOF compared to singleatom Pt1/ND@G catalyst(1.5.10^(-2)s^(-1))and surpassing to previously reported Pt-based catalysts under similar conditions.Moreover,the catalyst demonstrates excellent stability,maintaining its activity for 40 h at 80℃without significant deactivation.The superior catalytic performance of Pt-Ru dual-atom catalysts is attributed to the synergistic effect between Pt and Ru atoms with enhanced metallicity for improving simultaneous adsorption and activation of CO and O_(2),and the tuning of conventional competitive reactant adsorption into a non-competitive pathway over dual-atom pair sites.The present work manifests the advantages of dual-atom pair sites in heterogeneous catalysis and paves the way for precise design of catalysts at the atomic scale.

文摘Based on the previous findings that the presence of hydroxyl groups on the outer surface is crucial for maintaining skeletal stability,we propose a strategy modified Cu/SAPO-34 using Pr ions in this study.Therefore,we conducted several measurements to investigate the effect of Pr ions on the lowtemperature hydrothermal stability of Cu/SAPO-34.We find that Pr exists only on the surface of Cu/SAPO-34 as ions and oxides,with Pr^(3+)ions playing a protective role in occupying surface acidic sites.The addition of small amounts of Pr leads to the re-dispersion of Cu,resulting in improved lowtemperature selective catalytic reduction(SCR)activity in the as-synthesized samples.Furthermore,it enhances the resistance to decomposition of the Si-(OH)-Al framework during low-temperature hydrothermal aging,thereby preserving the framework structure and allowing detached active Cu species to return to exchangeable positions,ultimately restoring SCR activity.However,as the Pr content increases,the enhanced acidity causes some structural damage,gradually weakening the protective effect.Our work demonstrates that Pr modification is a simple and effective solution to the issue of poor lowtemperature hydrothermal stability in Cu/SAPO-34,providing a promising way for the application of light rare earth elements.

文摘Three different chromizing coatings were produced on Ni substrate using a conventional pack-cementation method with Al2O3,Al2O3＋CeO2 and CeO2 acting as filler,respectively,at a greatly decreased temperature（700 ℃）.Effects of different fillers on the isothermal and cyclic oxidation resistance of chromizing coating in air at 850 ℃ were comparably investigated.Microstructure results show that the addition of CeO2 into the filler significantly retards the grain growth of the chromizing coating.Oxidation results indicate that the chromizing coating using CeO2 as filler exhibits somewhat increased oxidation resistance than the normal chromizmg coating,while the chromizing coating using Al2O3＋CeO2 as filler exhibits much better oxidation resistance.The effects of different fillers on the oxidation behaviors were discussed in detail.
文摘[Objective] This study aimed to analyze the effects of different concentrations of glycine betaine（GB） on oxidation metabolism in cucumbers under low-temperature stress and to investigate the possible mechanism of low-temperature resistance in cucumber during low-temperature storage. [Method] Cucumber cultivar Zhongnong No.8 was treated with 0, 5, 10 and 15 mmol/L GB solutions for 15 min and stored at 4 ℃. Changes in oxidative metabolism-related parameters were observed. [Result] Increasing exogenous GB concentration could enhance GB content in cucumbers, decline lipoxygenase（LOX） activity, improve peroxidase（POD） and catalase（CAT） activities, remove effectively hydrogen peroxide（H2O2） and reduce the accumulation of malondialdehyde（MDA）. [Conclusion] Treating cucumbers with10 mmol/L GB exhibited the most remarkable effect.

文摘Electrochemical metallurgy at low temperature(<473 K)shows promise for the extraction and refinement of metals and alloys in a green and sustainable manner.However,the kinetics of the electrodeposition process is generally slow at low temperature,resulting in large overpotential and low current efficiency.Thus,the application of external physical fields has emerged as an effective strategy for improving the mass and charge transfer processes during electrochemical reactions.This review highlights the challenges associated with low-temperature electrochemical processes and briefly discusses recent achievements in optimizing electrodeposition processes through the use of external physical fields.The regulating effects on the optimization of the electrodeposition process and the strategies for select-ing various external physical fields,including magnetic,supergravity,and ultrasonic fields are summarized from the perspectives of equipment and mechanisms.Finally,advanced methods for in-situ characterization of external physical field-assisted electrodeposition processes are reviewed to gain a deeper understanding of metallic electrodeposition.An in-depth exploration of the mechanism by which external physical fields affect the electrode process is essential for enhancing the efficiency of metal extraction at low temperatures.
文摘The killing logarithms index in killing a vegetative form in an explosure of about 90s and a spore in an explosure of about 120s, by using a low-temperature plasma produced by dielectric barrier discharge （DBD）, reached 5. The speed in killing the strains tested, by using a low-temperature plasma, was the highest with E. Coli, then S. Aureus and B. Subtilis var niger spore. The results of the scanning electron microscope showed that the low-temperature plasma destroyed the outer structure of the bacteria and that the vegetative form was more susceptible to the inactivation effect of the low-temperature plasma than was the spore. This indicated that the effects of the high voltage and high velocity particle flow, in plasma, penetrating through the outer structure of the bacteria might play a dominant role during the inactivation of the bacteria.

文摘Although aqueous zinc-ion batteries have gained great development due to their many merits,the frozen aqueous electrolyte hinders their practical application at low temperature conditions.Here,the synergistic e ect of cation and anion to break the hydrogen-bonds network of original water molecules is demonstrated by multi-perspective characterization.Then,an aqueous-salt hydrates deep eutectic solvent of 3.5 M Mg(ClO_(4))_(2)+1 M Zn(ClO_(4))_(2)is proposed and displays an ultralow freezing point of-121℃.A high ionic conductivity of 1.41 mS cm-1 and low viscosity of 22.9 mPa s at-70℃ imply a fast ions transport behavior of this electrolyte.With the benefits of the low-temperature electrolyte,the fabricated Zn||Pyrene-4,5,9,10-tetraone(PTO)and Zn||Phenazine(PNZ)batteries exhibit satisfactory low-temperature performance.For example,Zn||PTO battery shows a high discharge capacity of 101.5 mAh g^(-1)at 0.5 C(200 mA g^(-1))and 71 mAh g^(-1)at 3C(1.2 A g^(-1))when the temperature drops to-70℃.This work provides an unique view to design anti-freezing aqueous electrolyte.

文摘Lithium-ion batteries are widely recognized as prime candidates for energy storage devices.Ethylene carbonate(EC)has become a critical component in conventional commercial electrolytes due to its exceptional film-forming properties and high dielectric constant.However,the elevated freezing point,high viscosity,and strong solvation energy of EC significantly hinder the transport rate of Li^(+)and the desolvation process at low temperatures.This leads to substantial capacity loss and even lithium plating on graphite anodes.Herein,we have developed an efficient electrolyte system specifically designed for lowtemperature conditions,which consists of 1.0 M lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide(LiFSI)in isoxazole(IZ)with fluorobenzene(FB)as an uncoordinated solvent and fluoroethylene carbonate(FEC)as a filmforming co-solvent.This system effectively lowers the desolvation energy of Li^(+)through dipole-dipole interactions.The weak solvation capability allows more anions to enter the solvation sheath,promoting the formation of contact ion pairs(CIPs)and aggregates(AGGs)that enhance the transport rate of Li^(+)while maintaining high ionic conductivity across a broad temperature range.Moreover,the formation of inorganic-dominant interfacial phases on the graphite anode,induced by fluoroethylene carbonate,significantly enhances the kinetics of Li^(+)transport.At a low temperature of-20℃,this electrolyte system achieves an impressive reversible capacity of 200.9 mAh g^(-1)in graphite half-cell,which is nearly three times that observed with conventional EC-based electrolytes,demonstrating excellent stability throughout its operation.

文摘Series of Mn/TiO2 catalysts modified with various contents of Nd for low-temperature SCR were synthesized.It can be found that the appropriate amount of Nd can markedly reduce the take-off temperature of Mn/TiO2 catalyst to 80℃and NOx conversion is stabilized over 90%in the wide temperature range of 100-2600 C.0.1 Nd-Mn/Ti shows higher N2 selectivity and better SO2 resistance than Mn/Ti catalyst.The results reveal that Nd-doped Mn/TiO2 catalyst exhibits larger BET surface area and better dispersion of active component Mn2O3.XPS results indicate that the optimal 0.1 Nd-Mn/Ti sample possesses higher concentration of Mn4+and larger amount of adsorbed oxygen at the surface compared with the unmodified counterpart.In situ DRIFTS show that the surface acidity is evidently increased after adding Nd,especially,the Lewis acid sites,and the intermediate(-NH2)is more stable.The reaction mechanism over Mn/Ti and 0.1 Nd-Mn/Ti catalysts obey the Eley-Rideal(E-R)mechanisms under low temperature reaction conditions.H2-TPR results show that Nd-Mn/TiO2 catalyst exhibits better lowtemperature redox properties.

文摘Cu/ZnO catalysts were prepared by the co-precipitation method with the addition of OP-10 （polyoxyethylene octylphenol ether） and were chemically and structurally characterized by means of XRD, BET, H2-TPR, CO-TPD and N20-titration. The effect of OP-10 addition on the activity of Cu/ZnO for the slurry phase methanol synthesis at 150℃ was evaluated. The results showed that Cu/ZnO prepared with addition of 8% OP-10 （denoted as C8） exhibited the promoted activity for the methanol synthesis. The conversion of CO and the STY （space time yield） of methanol were 42.5% and 74.6% higher than those of Cu/ZnO prepared without addition of OP-10 （denoted as CO）, respectively. The precursor of C8 contained more aurichalcite and rosasite, and the concerted effect of Cu-Zn in C8 was found to be stronger than that in CO. Compared with CO, C8 showed smaller particle size, lower reduction temperature and larger BET and Cu surface areas.

文摘A series of catalysts of Mn/USY and Mn-Fe/USY prepared by impregnation were studied for low-temperature selective catalytic reduction （SCR） of NO with NH3 in the presence of excess of oxygen. It was found that the addition of Fe enhanced the catalytic performance at low-temperature. Mn-Fe/USY catalyst yielded nearly 100% NO conversion in a range of temperature from 423 to 573 K at a space velocity of 36 000 cm3g^-1·h^-1. Coexistence of manganese and iron oxides enhanced the dispersion of the supported oxides, no visible phase of the oxides can be observed on catalyst. The addition of Fe enhanced the number and strength of the Bronsted and Lewis acid sites on the surface of the catalyst, which might promote the absorption of NH3 to form active intermediate and enhance the catalytic performance at low-temperature.

文摘In order to ensure safe drilling in deep water and marine gas hydrate bearing sediments, the needed characteristics of drilling fluid system were analyzed. Moreover, the effect of different agents on hydrate formation and the low-temperature rheology of designed polyalcohol drilling fluid were tested, respectively. The results show that clay can promote gas hydrate growth, while modified starch and polyalcohol can inhibit hydrate formation to some extent, and PVP K90 has a good performance on hydrate inhibition. The influence of clay on low-temperature rheology of polyglycols drilling fluid is notable. Therefore, the clay-free polyalcohol drilling fluid is suitable for deep water and marine gas hydrate drilling under optimal conditions.
