In the model, heat transfer, mass transfer, and gas-solid chemical reactions were taken into account. The behaviors of iron metallization and dezincification were analyzed by the numerical method, which was validated by experimental data of the direct reduction of pellets in a Si-Mo furnace. The simulation results show that if the production targets of iron metallization and dezincification are up to 80% and 90%, respectively, the furnace temperature for high-temperature sections must be set higher than 1300~ C. Moreover, an undersupply of secondary air by 20% will lead to a decline in iron metallization rate of discharged pellets by 10% and a decrease in dezincing rate by 13%. In addition, if the residence time of pellets in the furnace is over 20 min, its further extension will hardly lead to an obvious increase in production indexes under the same furnace temperature curve.展开更多

Results show that the optimum temperature win- dow is 841-1184 ℃, and the optimum reaction temperature is about 900 ℃ with a de-NOx efficiency of 95.4%. A certain amount of S02 has an inhibiting effect on NO reduction. The effect of additives, including Na2C03, C2H5OH and FeCI3, on NO reduction by NH3 is also explored. The addition of Na2CO3 and FeCI3 is useful to widen the tem- perature window and shift the reaction to lower temperature for the efficiency is increased from 30.5% to 74.0% and 67.4% respectively at 800 ℃. Qualitatively, the modeling results using a detailed kinetic modeling mecha- nism represent well most of the process features. The effect of Na2CO3, C2H5OH and FeCI3 addition can be reproduced well by the Na2C03, C2H5OH and Fe(CO)5 sub-mechanism respectively. The reaction mechanism analysis shows that the effects of these additives on NO reduction are achieved mainly by promoting the produc- tion of OH radicals at lower temperature.展开更多

To verify the proposed MDRM and compare the computational accuracy of these two methods, a numerical test is designed. The numerical results of the MDRM and DRM are compared using an extended meshed model. The results show that the MDRM significantly improved the computational accuracy of the DRM. Then, the MDRM is compared with two existing conventional methods, namely Liao's transmitting boundary and viscous-spring boundary with Liu's method. The MDRM shows its great advancement in computational accuracy, stability and range of applications. This paper also discusses the influence of boundary location on computational accuracy. It can be concluded that smaller models tend to have larger errors. By introducing two dimensionless parameters, φ_1 and φ_2, the rational distance between the observation point and the MDRM boundary is suggested. When φ_1 >2 or φ_2>13, the relative PGA error can be limited to 5%. In practice, the appropriate model size can be chosen based on these two parameters to achieve desired computational accuracy.展开更多

Specifically, th...Total ilmenite from Yunnan, China, difficult to smelt in blast furnace, was smelted by oxygen-enriched top-blown smelting reduction ironmaking technology. Much more details on smelting were discussed. Specifically, the influence of reduction temperature, slag basicity and molar ratio of carbon to oxygen on the reduction quality level including iron recovery and titanium and sulfur contents in the pig iron produced in the experiment was investigated. Iron recovery rate could reach 95 % with titanium content below 0.05 % in pig iron produced, under the conditions of holding time of 30 min at 1 823 K, basicity of 1.1, carbon to oxygen molar ratio of 1.0 and oxygen enriched flow rate of 250 L/h. Oxidization potential of top-space of smelting reduction vessel and slag combination could create the driv ing force to partition phosphorous, titanium and silicon into the slag, which ensured low contents of the impurities involved above and carbon in pig iron. In addition, it avoided the generation of Ti(C,N) that could reduce interracial tension of slag, which induced the formation of foaming slag seriously. Furthermore, jam of chargings and bubble flooding would be triggered, resulting in deterioration of BF state, increase of iron loss and decline of desulfurization rate.展开更多

The effect, which is related to basicity, reduction temperature, carbon-oxygen ratio and time of ventilated oxygen to iron recovery, dephosphorization rate, content of iron, phosphorus, sulfur and titanium in pig iron, was investigated in the experiment. The results show that an ideal outcome can be gained in condition of 6:4 ration on Mengqiao concentrate and Huimin iron ore, temperature of 1 500℃, basicity of 1.3, 1.0 on molar ration of carbon to oxygen, time of 10 min on blowing-oxygen. The outcome is that there is no foamy slag in generation, a good separation of slag and iron, iron recovery with 91.41%, content of phosphorus with 0.27% and tilanium content less than 0.001%, The atmosphere of strong oxidizing in the upper of reduction container and high potential of oxygen in the composition of slag in this technique bring phosphorus, titanium and silicon into slag, which ensures less content of impurity in pig iron.展开更多

The modified stability equation was obtained based on the slender-body theory and natural closure approximation. Results of the stability analysis show attenuating effects of fibre additives to the flow instability. For the cases leading to transition, drag reduction rate increases with the characteristic parameter H of fibres. The mechanism of drag reduction by fibres is revealed through the variation of velocity profile and the decrease of wall shear stress. The theoretical results are qualitatively consistent with some typical experiments.展开更多

The experimental results demonstrated that, with decreasing COD/SO_4^(2-) ratio, ORP and ALK increased, pH value decreased, and the proportion of acetic acid in terminal products decreased significantly, and a stable -type microbial community with high COD/SO_4^(2-) ratio was converted into a sub -stable -type one with low COD/SO_4^(2-) ratio.展开更多

文摘Against the background of“carbon peak and carbon neutrality,”it is of great practical significance to develop non-blast furnace ironmaking technology for the sustainable development of steel industry.Carbon-bearing iron ore pellet is an innovative burden of direct reduction ironmaking due to its excellent self-reducing property,and the thermal strength of pellet is a crucial metallurgical property that affects its wide application.The carbon-bearing iron ore pellet without binders(CIPWB)was prepared using iron concentrate and anthracite,and the effects of reducing agent addition amount,size of pellet,reduction temperature and time on the thermal compressive strength of CIPWB during the reduction process were studied.Simultaneously,the mechanism of the thermal strength evolution of CIPWB was revealed.The results showed that during the low-temperature reduction process(300-500℃),the thermal compressive strength of CIPWB linearly increases with increasing the size of pellet,while it gradually decreases with increasing the anthracite ratio.When the CIPWB with 8%anthracite is reduced at 300℃for 60 min,the thermal strength of pellet is enhanced from 13.24 to 31.88 N as the size of pellet increases from 8.04 to 12.78 mm.Meanwhile,as the temperature is 500℃,with increasing the anthracite ratio from 2%to 8%,the thermal compressive strength of pellet under reduction for 60 min remarkably decreases from 41.47 to 8.94 N.Furthermore,in the high-temperature reduction process(600-1150℃),the thermal compressive strength of CIPWB firstly increases and then reduces with increasing the temperature,while it as well as the temperature corresponding to the maximum strength decreases with increasing the anthracite ratio.With adding 18%anthracite,the thermal compressive strength of pellet reaches the maximum value at 800℃,namely 35.00 N,and obtains the minimum value at 1050℃,namely 8.60 N.The thermal compressive strength of CIPWB significantly depends on the temperature,reducing agent dosage,and pellet size.

文摘The efficient electrocatalytic nitrate(NO_(3)^(−))reduction to ammonia(NRA)offers a sustainable alternative for both environmental remediation and ammonia synthesis.Developing advanced electrocatalysts with rationally designed spatial arrangement of active sites and optimizing the synergetic effect among components are crucial for high efficiency and selectivity.Herein,we present Fe/N active sites decorated on porous carbon nanofibers(CNFs)with encapsulated FeCo nanoparticles(FeCo@CNFs-Fe/N)as electrocatalysts for NRA.The FeCo@CNFs-Fe/N catalyst demonstrates exceptional performance,achieving a high ammonia yield of 498.18μmol/(h·g_(cat)).Meanwhile,the enhanced reduction activity,especially the reduction in overpotential by 0.565 V,is 3–10 times higher than that of FeCo-encapsulated and Fe/N-modified CNFs-based catalysts.The enhanced catalytic activity is attributed to the efficient structure design and optimized spatial distribution of active sites,which enhance the electron transfer rate and decrease the reaction energy barrier.Mechanistic studies reveal that the synergetic effect between encapsulated nanoparticles and surface-modified Fe/N sites plays a crucial role in promoting efficient nitrate adsorption and selective ammonia production.These findings highlight the potential of strategically engineered CNF-based composites for nitrate reduction and other advanced electrocatalytic applications.

文摘Solar energy can be used to convert CO_(2)into valuable chemical compounds.However,the low activity of photocatalysts has hindered their development.By using defective g-C_(3)N_(4)/CeO_(2)heterojunctions,CO_(2)was successfully photo-reduced with high performance under ambient water vapor conditions without adding additives.g-C_(3)N_(4)in this system has a significant impact on CO_(2)conversion efficiency,with 5 wt%g-C_(3)N_(4)/CeO_(2)exhibiting competitive performance,achieving 45.66 Lμmol/g CO in 6 h with nearly 100%selectivity.Photoactivity is attributed to the formation of g-C_(3)N_(4)/CeO_(2)heterojunctions,which provide excellent electron transport and electron—hole separation.Additionally,light enhances the CO_(2)adsorption capacity of the catalyst,thereby improving reaction prope rties.The photogenerated electro ns generated under light excitation can quickly gather at the surface and defective parts of the sample,facilitating effective CO_(2)adsorption and promoting the formation of *COOH,thus promoting the photoreduction process of CO_(2).Cycle tests also demonstrate long-term stability.Highly efficient charge separation and reduced free energy of CO_(2)reduction both promote CO_(2)conversion performance.This work can provide an important idea for designing CeO_(2)-based CO_(2)photocatalysts.

文摘A mathematical model was established to describe the direct reduction of pellets in a rotary hearth furnace (RHF). In the model, heat transfer, mass transfer, and gas-solid chemical reactions were taken into account. The behaviors of iron metallization and dezincification were analyzed by the numerical method, which was validated by experimental data of the direct reduction of pellets in a Si-Mo furnace. The simulation results show that if the production targets of iron metallization and dezincification are up to 80% and 90%, respectively, the furnace temperature for high-temperature sections must be set higher than 1300~ C. Moreover, an undersupply of secondary air by 20% will lead to a decline in iron metallization rate of discharged pellets by 10% and a decrease in dezincing rate by 13%. In addition, if the residence time of pellets in the furnace is over 20 min, its further extension will hardly lead to an obvious increase in production indexes under the same furnace temperature curve.

文摘An experimental study of thermal de-NOx using NH3 as reductant in 02/C02 atmosphere with the effect of S02 and different additives was performed in a drop tube furnace. Results show that the optimum temperature win- dow is 841-1184 ℃, and the optimum reaction temperature is about 900 ℃ with a de-NOx efficiency of 95.4%. A certain amount of S02 has an inhibiting effect on NO reduction. The effect of additives, including Na2C03, C2H5OH and FeCI3, on NO reduction by NH3 is also explored. The addition of Na2CO3 and FeCI3 is useful to widen the tem- perature window and shift the reaction to lower temperature for the efficiency is increased from 30.5% to 74.0% and 67.4% respectively at 800 ℃. Qualitatively, the modeling results using a detailed kinetic modeling mecha- nism represent well most of the process features. The effect of Na2CO3, C2H5OH and FeCI3 addition can be reproduced well by the Na2C03, C2H5OH and Fe(CO)5 sub-mechanism respectively. The reaction mechanism analysis shows that the effects of these additives on NO reduction are achieved mainly by promoting the produc- tion of OH radicals at lower temperature.

文摘A modified domain reduction method(MDRM) that introduces damping terms to the original DRM is presented in this paper. To verify the proposed MDRM and compare the computational accuracy of these two methods, a numerical test is designed. The numerical results of the MDRM and DRM are compared using an extended meshed model. The results show that the MDRM significantly improved the computational accuracy of the DRM. Then, the MDRM is compared with two existing conventional methods, namely Liao's transmitting boundary and viscous-spring boundary with Liu's method. The MDRM shows its great advancement in computational accuracy, stability and range of applications. This paper also discusses the influence of boundary location on computational accuracy. It can be concluded that smaller models tend to have larger errors. By introducing two dimensionless parameters, φ_1 and φ_2, the rational distance between the observation point and the MDRM boundary is suggested. When φ_1 >2 or φ_2>13, the relative PGA error can be limited to 5%. In practice, the appropriate model size can be chosen based on these two parameters to achieve desired computational accuracy.

文摘Total ilmenite from Yunnan, China, difficult to smelt in blast furnace, was smelted by oxygen-enriched top-blown smelting reduction ironmaking technology. Much more details on smelting were discussed. Specifically, the influence of reduction temperature, slag basicity and molar ratio of carbon to oxygen on the reduction quality level including iron recovery and titanium and sulfur contents in the pig iron produced in the experiment was investigated. Iron recovery rate could reach 95 % with titanium content below 0.05 % in pig iron produced, under the conditions of holding time of 30 min at 1 823 K, basicity of 1.1, carbon to oxygen molar ratio of 1.0 and oxygen enriched flow rate of 250 L/h. Oxidization potential of top-space of smelting reduction vessel and slag combination could create the driv ing force to partition phosphorous, titanium and silicon into the slag, which ensured low contents of the impurities involved above and carbon in pig iron. In addition, it avoided the generation of Ti(C,N) that could reduce interracial tension of slag, which induced the formation of foaming slag seriously. Furthermore, jam of chargings and bubble flooding would be triggered, resulting in deterioration of BF state, increase of iron loss and decline of desulfurization rate.

文摘This paper mainly investigated the antimony recovery from antimony-bearing dusts through reduction roasting process after the dust firstly oxidation roasted.CO–CO2 mixture gas was used as reducing agent,and the antimony-containing phase was reduced into Sb4O6,volatilized into smoke,and finally recovered through the cooling cylinder.The antimony recovery rate increased from 66.00 wt%to 73.81 wt%in temperature range of 650 to 800°C,and decreased with temperature increased further to 900°C due to the reduction of Sb4O6 to the nonvolatile Sb.Similarly,the CO partial pressure also played a double role in this test.Under optimized conditions of roasting temperature of 800°C,CO partial pressure of 7.5 vol%and roasting time of 120 min,98.40 wt%of arsenic removal rate and 80.40 wt%antimony recovery rate could be obtained.In addition,the“As2O3”product could be used for preparing ferric arsenate which realized the harmless treatment of it.

文摘In order to reasonably utilize the abundant resources of high-phosphorus iron ore and ilmenite in China, the technology of top-blown smelting reduction with oxygen enrichment was used to smelt the mixed ore of high-phosphorus iron and ilmenite. The effect, which is related to basicity, reduction temperature, carbon-oxygen ratio and time of ventilated oxygen to iron recovery, dephosphorization rate, content of iron, phosphorus, sulfur and titanium in pig iron, was investigated in the experiment. The results show that an ideal outcome can be gained in condition of 6:4 ration on Mengqiao concentrate and Huimin iron ore, temperature of 1 500℃, basicity of 1.3, 1.0 on molar ration of carbon to oxygen, time of 10 min on blowing-oxygen. The outcome is that there is no foamy slag in generation, a good separation of slag and iron, iron recovery with 91.41%, content of phosphorus with 0.27% and tilanium content less than 0.001%, The atmosphere of strong oxidizing in the upper of reduction container and high potential of oxygen in the composition of slag in this technique bring phosphorus, titanium and silicon into slag, which ensures less content of impurity in pig iron.

文摘Drag reduction features in the transition regime of channel flow with fibre suspension were analyzed in terms of the linear stability theory. The modified stability equation was obtained based on the slender-body theory and natural closure approximation. Results of the stability analysis show attenuating effects of fibre additives to the flow instability. For the cases leading to transition, drag reduction rate increases with the characteristic parameter H of fibres. The mechanism of drag reduction by fibres is revealed through the variation of velocity profile and the decrease of wall shear stress. The theoretical results are qualitatively consistent with some typical experiments.

文摘Activated red mud(RM)has been proved to be a promising base material for the selective catalysis reduction(SCR)of NOx.The inherent low reducibility and acidity limited its low-temperature activity.In this work,molybdenum oxide,tungsten oxide,and cerium oxide were used to reconfigure the redox sites and acid sites of red mud based catalyst.When activated red mud was reconfigured by cerium-tungsten oxide(Ce-W@RM),the NOx conversion kept above 90%at 219-480℃.The existence of Ce^(3+)/Ce^(4+) redox electron pairs provided more surface adsorbed oxygen(O_(α)) and served as a redox cycle.Positive interactions between Ce,W species and Fe oxide in red mud occurred,which led to the formation of unsaturated chemical bond and promoted the activation of adsorbed NH_(3) species.WO_(3) and Ce_(2)(WO_(4))_(3)(formed by solid-state reaction between Ce and W species)could provide more Brønsted acid sites(W-O modes of WO_(3),W=O or W-O-W modes of Ce_(2)(WO_(4))_(3)).CeO_(2) species could provide more Lewis acid sites.The Langmuir-Hinshelwood(L-H)routes and Eley-Rideal(E-R)routes occurred in the low-temperature SCR reaction on the Ce-W@RM surface.NH_(4)^(+) species on Brønsted acid sites,NH_(3) species on Lewis acid sites,bidentate nitrate and bridging nitrate species were key active intermediates species.

文摘In order to investigate the change of ecological characteristics due to the decrease of COD/SO_4^(2-) ratio during sulfate reduction, continuous-flew tests were conducted in an acidogenic sulfate-reducing reactor with molasses wastewater as sole organic carbon source and sodium snlfate as electron acceptor, and the change of pH value, oxidation reduction potential (ORP), volatile fat acids (VFAs), alkalinity (ALK) and the predominant populations with COD/SO_4^(2-) ratio decreasing from 4.2 to 2.0 were investigated. The experimental results demonstrated that, with decreasing COD/SO_4^(2-) ratio, ORP and ALK increased, pH value decreased, and the proportion of acetic acid in terminal products decreased significantly, and a stable -type microbial community with high COD/SO_4^(2-) ratio was converted into a sub -stable -type one with low COD/SO_4^(2-) ratio.

文摘One of the challenges for catalytic CO_(2)reduction is to control product selectivity,and new findings that can modify selectivity would be transformative.Herein,two kinds of TiO_(2)(homemade and commercial)with the same crystal phase but different surface properties are chosen as supports to prepare Ni-based catalysts for CO_(2)reduction,which show distinctly different product selectivity for CO_(2)reduction to CH_(4) or CO,as well as the CO_(2)conversion.The catalysts based on the homemade TiO_(2)support are highly selective for CH_(4) formation,while the latter ones are about 100%selective for CO formation under the same reaction conditions.In addition,the former ones are much active(more than 3 times)than the latter ones.We found that the collaborative contribution of Ti^(3+)and Ni^(2+)species and the electronic metal-support interactions effect maybe the main driving force behind for determining the product selectivity.Methane is almost exclusively produced over the catalysts with abundant Ti^(3+)and Ni^(2+)species and greater electronic metal-support interaction,otherwise,it will give priority to CO generation.The addition of CeO_(2)can reduce the Ni particle size and improve the dispersion of Ni nanoparticles,as well as create more Ti^(3+)species,contributing to the enhancement of CO_(2)conversion,but shows a negligible effect on product selectivity.Furthermore,the in situ DRIFT experiments and kinetic experiments indicate that the CO route is probably involved in the CO_(2)reduction process over the homemade Ni-CeO_(2)/TiO_(2)-CO catalyst with abundant Ti^(3+)and Ni^(2+)species and a strong electronic transform effect.

文摘The influence of gangue compositions (mainly composed of SiO2,CaO,MgO and Al2O3)on the reduction kinetics of carbon-bearing iron ore pellets was estimated at 1373-1473 K in N2 atmosphere.The results showed that gangue content and each component distribution affected the pellets reduction process.The reduction rate was found to follow a linear correlation with quaternary basicity R4 [mass ratio of (CaO +MgO)to (SIO2 +Al2O3)]of the carbon-beating iron ore pellets;also,the content of SiO2 solid solution in iron oxide had a significant impact on the reduction rate.At the same reduction temperature,a higher R4 resulted in a lower SiO2 free content,weakening its inhibitory effect on the Boudouard reaction.The reduction temperature of Fe2SiO4 could be reduced by increasing the contents of CaO and MgO,improving the iron oxide reduction as well as the precipitation and growth of the iron grains.The g'angue content and .component distribution showed no effect on the rate-controlling step of the reduction;however,the apparent activation energy of reaction decreased with increasing quaternary basicity.When R4 increased from 0.15 to 0.67,the apparent activation energy decreased from 228.51 to 193.66 kJ/mol.
文摘To improve the performance of an active mass damper control system,the controller should be designed based on a reduced-order model. An improved method based on balanced truncation method was proposed to reduce the dimension of high-rise buildings,and was compared with other widely used reduction methods by using a framework with ten floors. This optimized method has improvement of reduction process and choice of the order. Based on the reduced-order model obtained by the improved method and pole-assignment algorithm,a controller was designed. Finally,a comparative analysis of structural responses,transfer functions,and poles was conducted on an actual high-rise building. The results show the effectiveness of the improved method.

文摘Synergistic carbon emission reduction at the urban scale is an inherent requirement for China to realize its carbon emission reduction commitments and promote sustainable and regional synergistic development.Using 16 prefectural cities in Shandong Province as an example,this study defines and quantifies the regional carbon emission reduction capacity(CERC)based on the synergistic development of carbon emission reduction,environmental protection,and economic growth objectives.The spatial network characteristics of the(CERC)and its drivers were analyzed using social network analysis and quadratic assignment procedure regression methods.The results revealed that the spatial correlation of the CERC among prefectural cities has been increasing over the years.Jinan−Zibo−Qingdao is the center of the network,while the spatial linkage strength in the southwest and northeast of Shandong Province is weak.Geospatial distance and scientific development differences have a significant negative effect on the intensity of spatial association,while differences in economic and informatization developments have a considerable positive impact.Environmental regulatory differences and transportation differences are not significant.This study offers a methodological reference for similar studies in other countries or regions.At the same time,the findings provide a scientific basis for the government to rationally allocate urban resources and promote regional synergistic carbon emission reduction.

文摘The utilization of aquaculture wastewater as irrigation is an effective way to recycle and reuse water and nitrogen fertilizer resources because it contains numerous nutrients.However,it is still unclear that the pattern of substituting aquaculture wastewater irrigation for fertilizer supplementing is conducive to improving the soil nitrogen status,fruit yield and water-fertilizer use efficiency for tomato production.In this context,the experiment was intended to establish the appropriate irrigation regime of aquaculture wastewater in tomato production for freshwater replacement and fertilizer reduction to ensure good yields.Pot experiments were conducted with treatments as farmers accustomed to irrigation and fertilization used as control(CK),1.75 L aquaculture wastewater with base fertilizer(W1),2 L aquaculture wastewater with base fertilizer;and 2.25 L aquaculture wastewater with base fertilizer(W3).We examined the effects of aquaculture wastewater irrigation on soil nitrogen distribution,Nrelated hydrolases,tomato yield,and economic benefits.The results showed that the control treatment had the highest N input,about 24.68%higher than the W3 treatment,while the yield was only about 7.81%higher than W3.This indicated that the overuse of chemical fertilizer was present in the current tomato production.Although the reduction of fertilizer in aquaculture wastewater irrigation caused a decrease in tomato production,this economic loss can be compensated by cost savings in the wastewater disposal.Among aquaculture wastewater treatments,the W3 treatment had the highest overall benefit,achieving 62.63%freshwater savings,37.50%fertilizer input reduction,and an economic return of approximately 19,466 Yuan per hectare higher than the control.Additionally,increasing the irrigation volume of aquaculture wastewater could provide more available nutrients to the soil,which were more prevalent in the form of organic nitrogen.The lower soil nitrate reductase activities(NR)under aquaculture wastewater treatments after harvesting also proved that this pattern was beneficial to reduce soil nitrate nitrogen residues.Overall,the results demonstrate that aquaculture wastewater irrigation alleviates the soil nitrate residues,improves nutrient availability,and results in more economic returns with water and fertilizer conservation for the greenhouse production of tomatoes.
文摘Based on data gathered from the China Family Panel Studies(CFPS)in 2010 and 2016,this paper examines income poverty and multidimensional poverty among the Chinese elderly.Compared with the non-elderly population,poverty incidence was relatively lower among China’s elderly population in 2010,but the elderly poor were significantly more poor.By 2016,the level of poverty became more or less the same between elderly and non-elderly people.Compared with 2010,the poverty incidence on various deprived dimensions and the average share of deprivation for the elderly fell sharply in 2016 by an average of 30 and 10 percentage points,respectively.Reduction in poverty incidence was 10 percentage points higher for the rural elderly than for the urban elderly.After estimating the multidimensional poverty index for the elderly by the“two no worries and three guarantees”criteria,we found that the intensity of multidimensional poverty was only about half that of the income poverty.The“two worries,”i.e.the lack of food and clothing,contributed more to multidimensional poverty than did what the“three guarantees”target i.e.education,healthcare and housing,especially on income and residential energy dimensions.Elderly healthcare contributed more than 20%to the“three guarantees.”
