Herein,we established a Zn_(3)(OH)_(2)(V_(2)O_(7))(H_(2)O)_(2)/V-Zn(O,S)Z-scheme heterojunction labeled ZnVO/V-Zn(O,S)with a heterovalent V^(4+)/V^(5+)states and oxygen vacancies in both phases via a one-step in-situ ...Herein,we established a Zn_(3)(OH)_(2)(V_(2)O_(7))(H_(2)O)_(2)/V-Zn(O,S)Z-scheme heterojunction labeled ZnVO/V-Zn(O,S)with a heterovalent V^(4+)/V^(5+)states and oxygen vacancies in both phases via a one-step in-situ hydrolysis method.The NaBH_(4) regulated the ZnVO/V-Zn(O,S)-3 with rich Vo and suitable n(V^(4+))/n(V^(5+))ratio achieved an excellent photocatalytic nitrogen fixation activity of 301.7μmol/(g×h)and apparent quantum efficiency of 1.148%at 420 nm without any sacrificial agent,which is 11 times than that of V-Zn(O,S).The Vo acts as the active site to trap and activate N_(2) molecules and to trap and activate H_(2)O to produce the H for N_(2) molecules photocatalytic reduction.The rich Vo defects can also reduce the competitive adsorption of H_(2)O and N_(2) molecules on the surface active site of the catalyst.The heterovalent vanadium states act as the photogenerated electrons,quickly hopping between V^(4+)and V^(5+)to transfer for the photocatalytic N_(2) reduction reaction.Additionally,the Z-scheme heterojunction effectively minimizes photogenerated carrier recombination.These synergistic effects collectively boost the photocatalytic nitrogen fixation activity.This study provides a practical method for designing Z-scheme heterojunctions for efficient photocatalytic N_(2) fixation under mild conditions.展开更多

The impacts of the reaction pressure, reaction temperature and reaction time of SH route, and the calcination temperature of SSR route on the purity, particle morphology and electrochemical properties of the prepared LiMn2O4 materials were studied. The experimental results show that after 15 min reaction in SH route at 400 ℃ and 30 MPa, the reaction time of SSR could be significantly decreased, e.g. down to 3 h with the formation temperature of 800 ℃, compared with the conventional solid state reaction method. The prepared LiMn2O4 material exhibits good crystallinity, uniform size distribution and good electrochemical performance, and has an initial specific capacity of 120 mA.h/g at a rate of 0.1C （1C=148 mA/g） and a good rate capability at high rates, even up to 50C.展开更多

In this model, CO2 is mutually soluble in aqueous and hydrocarbon phases, while other components, except water,exist in hydrocarbon phase. The Peng–Robinson(PR) equation of state and the Wong–Sandler mixing rule with non-random two-liquid parameters are used to calculate CO2 fugacity in the aqueous phase. One-dimensional and three-dimensional CO2 flooding examples show that a significant amount of injected CO2 is dissolved in water. Our simulation shows 7% of injected CO2 can be dissolved in the aqueous phase, which delays oil recovery by 4%. The gas rate predicted by the model is smaller than the conventional model as long as water is undersaturated by CO2, which can be considered as 'lost' in the aqueous phase. The model also predicts that the delayed oil can be recovered after the gas breakthrough, indicating that delayed oil is hard to recover in field applications. A three-dimensional example reveals that a highly stratified reservoir causes uneven displacement and serious CO2 breakthrough. If mobility control measures like water alternating gas are undertaken, the solubility e ects will be more pronounced than this example.展开更多

The metallographic analysis and performance test show that the microstructure of parts is dense and mechanical properties axe excellent with the volume fraction of Al is 37%. The bend strength and fracture toughness of the composite are about 570- 690 MPa and 8.5-16.8 MPa·m^1/2, respectively. Comparing with reaction in situ and high temperature oxidation technologies the bending strength and fracture toughness are improved greatly. At the same time, it shows that the technology parameters have great influences on the properties. So it is feasible to prepare metal/ceramics composites by the proposed technology.展开更多
