The process comprised four key steps: decarburization, preferential grinding, desliming and flotation. In the decarburization stage, roasting at 550 ℃ effectively avoided the negative effect of the carbonaceous materials in raw ore and generation of free CaO from calcite decomposition during roasting. Through preferential grinding, the high acid-consuming minerals were enriched in the middle fractions, while mica was enriched in the fine and coarse fractions. Through flotation, the final concentrate can be obtained with V2O5 grade of 1.07% and recovery of 83.30%. Moreover, the vanadium leaching rate of the final concentrate increased 13.53% compared to that of the feed. The results reveal that the decarburization by roasting at 550 ℃ is feasible and has little negative impact on mica flotation, and vanadium recovery from stone coal is conducive to reducing handling quantity, acid consumption and production cost.展开更多

We have projected above 445 large-superlarge deposits on (1:5 M) global tectonic background map and divided 4 metallogenic domains, 21 metallogenic belts. Global metallogeny of large-superlarge deposits are: unity by endogenic, exogenic metamorphic and epigenetic in origin; speciality in different metallogenic domains and belts; preferentiality to ore-forming elements of Cu, Au, Fe, Ag, Cr, Mn, Zn, Pb, Sb, Hg, to continental margins or plate convergent belts, to Intra-continental tectono-magmatic complex belts and Large ductile shear zones; abnormality by the global oxyatmversion (excess oxygen atmospheric event) in Archean, redoxyatmversion (lack oxygen atmospheric event) in Proterozoic-Paleozoic, and tectonosphere thermal erosion (great amount of tectonic magmatic event) in Mesozoic-Cenozoic.展开更多

They were assimilated with the measured data in 2003, 2004, 2006 and 2007, using the tidal range's proportion conversion. Variations in TCD and TCV, preferential flow and SSC have been calculated. Influences of typical engineering projects such as Qingcaosha fresh water reservoir, Yangtze River Bridge, and land reclamation on the ebb and flood TCD, TCV and SSC in the North Channel for the last 10 years are discussed. The results show that: (1) currently, in the upper part of North Channel, the ebb tide dominates; after the construction of the typical projects, ebb TCD and TCV tends to be larger and the vertical average ebb and flood SSC decrease during the flood season while SSC increases during the dry season; (2) changes in the vertical average TCV are mainly contributed by seasonal runoff variation during the flood season, which is larger in the flood season than that in the dry season; the controlling parameters of increasing ebb TCD and TCV are those large-scale engineering projects in the North Channel; variation in SSC may result mainly from the reduction of basin annual sediment loads, large-scale nearshore projects and so on.展开更多

Empirical solvatochromic pa- rameters, dipolarity/polarizability (π^*), hydrogen-bond donor acidity (α), hydrogen-bond acceptor basicity (β), and Reichardt's polarity parameters (ET^N) were measured from the ultraviolet-visible spectral shifts of 4-nitroaniline, 4-nitroanisole, and Reichardt's dye. The solvent properties of the IL-water mixtures were found to be influenced by IL type and IL mole fraction (XIL). All these studied systems showed the non-ideal behavior. The max- imum deviation to ideality for the solvatochromic parameters can be obtained in the XIL range from 0.i to 0.3. For most of the binary mixtures, the π^* values showed the synergistic effects instead of the ETN, α and β values. The observed synergy extent was dependent on the studied systems, such as the dye indicator and IL type. A preferential solvation model was utilized to gather information on the molecular interactions in the mixtures. The dye indicator was preferentially solvated on the following trend: IL〉IL-water complex〉water.展开更多

文摘The identification of igneous rock in sedimentary basins serves as the basis for the exploration of igneous oil and gas reservoirs.The implementation of magnetic exploration in the identification and delineation of igneous rock can often achieve good results.However,when igneous rock and deep magnetic layers are under the influence of remanence,the reduction to the pole of magnetic anomaly and conventional magnetic inversion methods,which require clear magnetization directions,is limited,and special magnetic anomaly processing and inversion methods are necessary.We present a case study on igneous rock imaging through a strategy involving the joint use of a preferential filtering method and amplitude inversion affected by remanence in the Qikou depression in China.We first extract the weak anomalies of igneous rock from the observed total-field anomaly via preferential filtering and calculate their amplitude data.We then perform amplitude inversion to determine the underground three-dimensional magnetism distribution and propose a reasonable interpretation by combining seismic and other data.This work demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of the above strategy in delineating the igneous rock buried deep in sedimentary basins.

文摘The freeze-thaw process is crucial for forming soil macropore structure to promote movement of water and salt downward by preferential flow in seasonally frozen regions.However,the freeze-thaw process of soil is hindered by the snowpack,and the effects of the snowpack on the soil macropore structure and its implications on the formation of preferential flow are not well understood.This study collected soil samples from Da’an City,Northeast China,on July 15 and 16,2022,and conducted an indoor soil column snowpack-freeze-thaw tracing experiment on October 10 to 30,2022,to reveal the impact of snowpack and freeze-thaw cycles(FTC)on the forma-tion of preferential flow.The experiments were carried out with three levels of initial moisture content(IMC)of the soil column,the times of freeze-thaw cycles(T-FTC),and the snowpack thickness(SPT).Results show that increases in both IMC and SPT decreased the max infiltration depth(MID)of preferential flow.Greater T-FTC increased the MID and non-uniformity of the wet front trace and promoted the creation of preferential flow.The T-FTC and IMC both increased the overall variability of preferential flow,but this vari-ability decreased with greater SPT.The length index(LI)had the most significant impact on the preferential flow index(PFI)with an entropy weight of 0.2340,while the height difference of the multifractal spectrum(Δf(α))had the most negligible impact with a weight of 0.0753.Finally,results of redundancy analysis(RDA)and structural equation model(SEM)show that multifractal characteristic in-dicators have a much stronger ability to reflect the degree of preferential flow than developmental characteristic indicators.The T-FTC was the most important factor driving the formation of preferential flow in snowpack-freeze-thaw cycles.Therefore,conducting re-search on preferential flow in cold and arid regions is greatly significant for the utilization of regional water resources and the improve-ment of soil ecological environments.

文摘Intercalation of rare-earth(RE)into Pt offers an option to optimize the electronic structure of Pt-based catalysts by interaction effect,in which the synergistic catalytic sites are of great significance,yet the underpinning mechanism remains elusive.Herein,the introduction of silanol nests enables the alloy formation on the SiO_(2)surface.The amination modification is disclosed to induce the electron transfer from RE to Pt and weaken the adsorption of CO on electron-rich Pt species.In situ/operando spectroscopic analyses in conjunction with density functional theory calculations demonstrate the electronic couple of Pt atoms and adjacent Ce atoms concurrently achieves the enhancement of CO oxidation and suppression of H_(2)oxidation.Additionally,CO_(2)is readily desorbed from the Pt_(5)Ce(111)surface to enhance intrinsic activity and longevity.These findings provide an atomic-level insight into the synergistic catalytic sites on regulating the electronic state of the Pt-RE alloy catalysts toward highly selective oxidation reactions.

文摘The dynamic monitoring of landslides in engineering geology has focused on the correlation among landslide stability,rainwater infiltration,and subsurface hydrogeology.However,the understanding of this complicated correlation is still poor and inadequate.Thus,in this study,we investigated a typical landslide in southwestern China via time-lapse electrical resistivity tomography(TLERT) in November 2013 and August 2014.We studied landslide mechanisms based on the spatiotemporal characteristics of surface water infiltration and flow within the landslide body.Combined with borehole data,inverted resistivity models accurately defined the interface between Quaternary sediments and bedrock.Preferential flow pathways attributed to fracture zones and fissures were also delineated.In addition,we found that surface water permeates through these pathways into the slipping mass and drains away as fissure water in the fractured bedrock,probably causing the weakly weathered layer to gradually soften and erode,eventually leading to a landslide.Clearly,TLERT dynamic monitoring can provide precursory information of critical sliding and can be used in landslide stability analysis and prediction.

文摘Igneous rocks in the South China Sea have broad prospects for oil and gas exploration.Integrated geophysical methods are important approaches to study the distribution of igneous rocks and to determine and identify igneous rock bodies.Aimed at the characteristics of gravity and magnetic fields in the South China Sea,several potential field processing methods are preferentially selected.Reduction to the pole by variable inclinations in the area of low magnetic latitudes is used to perform reduction processing on magnetic anomalies.The preferential continuation method is used to separate gravity and magnetic anomalies and extract the gravity and magnetic anomaly information of igneous rocks in the shallow part of the South China Sea.The 3D spatial equivalent distribution of igneous rocks in South China Sea is illustrated by the 3 D correlation imaging of magnetic anomalies.Since the local anomaly boundaries are highlighted gravity and magnetic gradients,the distribution characters of different igneous rocks are roughly outlined by gravity and magnetic correlation analysis weighted by gradient.The results show the distribution of igneous rocks is controlled and influenced by deep crustal structure and faulting.

文摘A new process for vanadium recovery from stone coal by roasting-flotation was investigated based on the mineralogy. The process comprised four key steps: decarburization, preferential grinding, desliming and flotation. In the decarburization stage, roasting at 550 ℃ effectively avoided the negative effect of the carbonaceous materials in raw ore and generation of free CaO from calcite decomposition during roasting. Through preferential grinding, the high acid-consuming minerals were enriched in the middle fractions, while mica was enriched in the fine and coarse fractions. Through flotation, the final concentrate can be obtained with V2O5 grade of 1.07% and recovery of 83.30%. Moreover, the vanadium leaching rate of the final concentrate increased 13.53% compared to that of the feed. The results reveal that the decarburization by roasting at 550 ℃ is feasible and has little negative impact on mica flotation, and vanadium recovery from stone coal is conducive to reducing handling quantity, acid consumption and production cost.
文摘Based on the data base of 1285 mineral deposits of 22 commodities in 121 countries of 6 continents of the world, the authors use the linear trend analysis for their reserves to determine the cut-off limited order of reserves to select 36 exceptional superlarge (as peak mineral), 95 superlarge and 314 large deposits as new recognized intellect for their quantitative change. We have projected above 445 large-superlarge deposits on (1:5 M) global tectonic background map and divided 4 metallogenic domains, 21 metallogenic belts. Global metallogeny of large-superlarge deposits are: unity by endogenic, exogenic metamorphic and epigenetic in origin; speciality in different metallogenic domains and belts; preferentiality to ore-forming elements of Cu, Au, Fe, Ag, Cr, Mn, Zn, Pb, Sb, Hg, to continental margins or plate convergent belts, to Intra-continental tectono-magmatic complex belts and Large ductile shear zones; abnormality by the global oxyatmversion (excess oxygen atmospheric event) in Archean, redoxyatmversion (lack oxygen atmospheric event) in Proterozoic-Paleozoic, and tectonosphere thermal erosion (great amount of tectonic magmatic event) in Mesozoic-Cenozoic.
文摘The tidal current duration (TCD) and velocity (TCV) and suspended sediment concentration (SSC) were measured in the dry season in December, 2011 and in the flood season in June, 2012 at the upper part of the North Channel of Changjiang Estuary. They were assimilated with the measured data in 2003, 2004, 2006 and 2007, using the tidal range's proportion conversion. Variations in TCD and TCV, preferential flow and SSC have been calculated. Influences of typical engineering projects such as Qingcaosha fresh water reservoir, Yangtze River Bridge, and land reclamation on the ebb and flood TCD, TCV and SSC in the North Channel for the last 10 years are discussed. The results show that: (1) currently, in the upper part of North Channel, the ebb tide dominates; after the construction of the typical projects, ebb TCD and TCV tends to be larger and the vertical average ebb and flood SSC decrease during the flood season while SSC increases during the dry season; (2) changes in the vertical average TCV are mainly contributed by seasonal runoff variation during the flood season, which is larger in the flood season than that in the dry season; the controlling parameters of increasing ebb TCD and TCV are those large-scale engineering projects in the North Channel; variation in SSC may result mainly from the reduction of basin annual sediment loads, large-scale nearshore projects and so on.
文摘Binary mixtures of 1,3-dialkylimidazolium based ionic liquids (ILs) and water were selected as solvent systems to investigate the solute-solvent and solvent-solvent interactions on the preferential solvation of solvatochromic indicators at 25 ℃. Empirical solvatochromic pa- rameters, dipolarity/polarizability (π^*), hydrogen-bond donor acidity (α), hydrogen-bond acceptor basicity (β), and Reichardt's polarity parameters (ET^N) were measured from the ultraviolet-visible spectral shifts of 4-nitroaniline, 4-nitroanisole, and Reichardt's dye. The solvent properties of the IL-water mixtures were found to be influenced by IL type and IL mole fraction (XIL). All these studied systems showed the non-ideal behavior. The max- imum deviation to ideality for the solvatochromic parameters can be obtained in the XIL range from 0.i to 0.3. For most of the binary mixtures, the π^* values showed the synergistic effects instead of the ETN, α and β values. The observed synergy extent was dependent on the studied systems, such as the dye indicator and IL type. A preferential solvation model was utilized to gather information on the molecular interactions in the mixtures. The dye indicator was preferentially solvated on the following trend: IL〉IL-water complex〉water.
