The reaction kinetics was studied taking into account the process of L-malic acid association leading to the formation of inactive cyclic oligomeric species. High TOFs(ca. 50 h-1), selectivities(ca. 99%)and stability of Pt-Re Ox/C catalysts in aqueous-phase hydrogenation of L-malic acid, which are close to those of the homogeneous pincer type complexes, were revealed at mild conditions(T = 90–130 ℃). Taking into account that(i) hydrogenation reaction occurred 2–3 orders of magnitude faster than its racemization and(ii) association of L-malic acid dominates at low temperatures and in a concentrated solution,special reaction conditions that allow obtaining chemically and optically(ee 〉 99%) pure(S)-3-hydroxy-γ-butyrolactone and(S)-1,2,4-butanetriol were found.

The effect and mechanism of citric acid on the reverse flotation of hematite fines were investigated by flotation tests, sedimentation experiments, scanning electron microscopy(SEM), zeta-potential measurements, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The results of SEM analysis and flotation tests reveal that a strong heterocoagulation in the form of slime coating or coagulation in hematite fine slurry affects the beneficiation of hematite ores by froth flotation. The addition of a small amount of citric acid(less than 300 g/t) favorably affects the reverse flotation of hematite fines by improving particle dispersion. The results of sedimentation experiments, zeta-potential measurements, and XPS measurements demonstrate that citric acid adsorbs onto hematite and quartz surfaces via hydrogen bonding, thereby reducing the zeta potentials of mineral surfaces, strengthening the electrical double-layer repulsion between mineral particles, and dispersing the pulp particles.展开更多
