D...The direct emission of waste refinery gas after combustion will cause a severe greenhouse effect.Recovering high-value-added ethylene from wasted refinery gas has fundamental economic and environmental significance. Due to the complexity of the composition of refinery waste gas, designing and optimizing the whole recovery process is still a challenging task. Herein, a novel process(SCOAS) was proposed to obtain polymer-grade ethylene from wasted refinery gas through a direct separation process,and heat pump-assisted thermal integration optimization(HPSCOAS) was carried out. The unique feature of the novel approach is that a new stripper and ethylene reabsorber follow the dry gas absorber to ensure ethylene recovery and methane content. An industrial model, shallow cooling oil absorption(SCOA), and concentration combined cold separation system of ethylene unit using wasted refinery gas was established to analyze the technology and environment. Based on the detailed process modeling and simulation results, the quantitative sustainability assessment of economy and environment based on product life cycle process is carried out. The results show that compared with the traditional process when the same product is obtained, the total annual cost of the HPSCOAS process is the lowest, which is 15.4% lower than that of the SCOA process and 6.1% lower than that of the SCOAS process. In addition,compared with the SCOA process and the HPSCOAS process, the SCOAS process has more environmental advantages. The non-renewable energy consumed by SCOAS is reduced by about 24.8% and 6.1%, respectively. The CO_(2) equivalent is reduced by about 38.6% and 23.7%.展开更多

By appropriately optimizing the growth conditions, an increasing diffusion length of Ga adatoms is realized, suppressing 3D island growth patterns prevalent in(100) β-Ga_(2)O_(3) films and optimizing the surface morphology with [010] oriented stripe features. The slightly Si-doped β-Ga_(2)O_(3) film shows smooth and flat surface morphology with a root-mean-square roughness of 1.3 nm. Rocking curves of the(400) diffraction peak also demonstrate the high crystal quality of the Si-doped films. According to the capacitance–voltage characteristics, the effective net doping concentrations of the films are 5.41 × 10~(15) – 1.74 × 10~(20) cm~(-3). Hall measurements demonstrate a high electron mobility value of 51cm~2/(V·s), corresponding to a carrier concentration of 7.19 × 10~(18) cm~(-3) and a high activation efficiency of up to 61.5%. Transmission line model(TLM) measurement shows excellent Ohmic contacts and a low specific contact resistance of 1.29 × 10~(-4) Ω·cm~2 for the Si-doped film, which is comparable to the Si-implanted film with a concentration of 5.0 × 10~(19) cm~(-3), confirming the effective Si doing in the MOCVD epitaxy.展开更多

文摘The types and functions of social networking sites are becoming more abundant with the prevalence of self-media culture,and the number of daily active users of social networking sites represented by Weibo and Zhihu continues to expand.There are key node users in social networks.Compared with ordinary users,their influence is greater,their radiation range is wider,and their information transmission capabilities are better.The key node users playimportant roles in public opinion monitoring and hot event prediction when evaluating the criticality of nodes in social networking sites.In order to solve the problems of incomplete evaluation factors,poor recognition rate and low accuracy of key nodes of social networking sites,this paper establishes a social networking site key node recognition algorithm(SNSKNIS)based on PageRank(PR)algorithm,and evaluates the importance of social networking site nodes in combination with the influence of nodes and the structure of nodes in social networks.This article takes the Sina Weibo platform as an example,uses the key node identification algorithm system of social networking sites to discover the key nodes in the social network,analyzes its importance in the social network,and displays it visually.
文摘Dear Editor,We are writing this letter to report a micro-macular hole(mMH)following the intraoperative rotation of implantable collamer lens(ICL,V4c,Staar Surgical,Monrovia,CA,USA)without ophthalmic viscosurgical device(OVD)assistance and eventually this mMH closed spontaneously.
文摘Transradial access(TRA)is a safe and comfortable approach and the preferred access for percutaneous coronary intervention.However,TRA is not widely used for peripheral interventions.Currently,there is a lack of data on patient selection,appropriate medical devices,complication prevention,and TRA adoption.Therefore,the Chinese Society of Interventional Oncology of the China Anti-Cancer Association organized nationwide experts to establish a Working Group of China Expert Consensus on TRA in percutaneous peripheral interventions in 2022,and jointly formulated this consensus to better promote the application of TRA in peripheral interventions to guide clinicians on patient selection,technical recommendations,and physician training.This consensus mainly focuses on the current situation,advantages and limitations of TRA in peripheral interventions,anatomical characteristics of the radial artery,patient selection,technical aspects,prevention and management of complications,radiation dose,and learning curve.A consensus was reached through a literature evaluation and by referring to the opinions of the expert group.

文摘The exponential growth of bioinformatics tools in recent years has posed challenges for scientists in selecting the most suitable one for their data analysis assignments.Therefore,to aid scientists in making informed choices,a community-based platform that indexes and rates bioinformatics tools is urgently needed.In this study,we introduce Bio Treasury(http://biotreasury.rjmart.cn),an integrated communitybased repository that provides an interactive platform for users and developers to share their experiences in various bioinformatics tools.Bio Treasury offers a comprehensive collection of well-indexed bioinformatics software,tools,and databases,totaling over 10,000 entries.In the past two years,we have continuously improved and maintained Bio Treasury,adding several exciting features,including creating structured homepages for every tool and user,a hierarchical category of bioinformatics tools and classifying tools using large language model(LLM).Bio Treasury streamlines the tool submission process with intelligent auto-completion.Additionally,Bio Treasury provides a wide range of social features,for example,enabling users to participate in interactive discussions,rate tools,build and share tool collections for the public.We believe Bio Treasury can be a valuable resource and knowledge-sharing platform for the biomedical community.It empowers researchers to effectively discover and evaluate bioinformatics tools,fostering collaboration and advancing bioinformatics research.
