Preparative electrolyses of perchloric acid (HClO4) and sodium chloride (NaCl) were performed on a boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode. The hydroxyl radicals were quantified indirectly by assaying the samples from the HClO4 (0.1 M) electrolysis with a 10−4 M potassium permanganate solution. The investigations showed that the amount of hydroxyl radicals depends on the concentration of HClO4 and the current density. As for chlorine, a qualitative determination was carried out. A mixture of the electrolyte solution of HClO4 (0.1 M) + NaI (0.2 M) + 2 mL of hexane, taken in this order, leads to a purplish-pink coloration attesting to the presence of Cl2. The same test was carried out with NaBr and NaI giving pale and very pale pink colourations, respectively, showing that the intensity of the colouration depends on the strength of the oxidant present. In addition, oxidants were detected during the electrooxidation of metronidazole (MNZ). The results showed the participation of electrogenerated hydroxyl radicals. The generation of chlorine has also been proven. Furthermore, the degradation leads to a chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rate of 83.48% and the process is diffusion-controlled.展开更多

In our approach, particular attention is paid to the linear laser-induced fluorescence and absorption processes, and experimental details as well. Through measuring the temperature, LIF signal distribution and integrated absorption, spatially absolute OH concentrations profiles are successfully resolved. These experimental results are then compared with the numerical simulation. It is proved that the good quality of the results implies that this method is suitable for calibrating the OH-PLIF measurement in a practical combustor.展开更多

The hallmarks of apoptosis such as condensation and peripheral distribution of nuclei, TUNEL positive reaction, and DNA ladders were observed when tobacco protoplasts were treated with the hydroxyl radical generating system (1.0 mmol/L FeSO4/0.5 mmol/L H2O2). In animals, the loss of transmembrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) and the exposure of phospholipid phosphatidylserine (PS) are believed to be the main apoptosis events. To test whether these significant processes take place in plants, flow cytometry was used to detect annexin V binding and changes in DeltaPsi(m). Results showed that the PS turned out from inner membrane and DeltaPsi(m) gradually decreased during the apoptosis. All these apoptotic characteristics proved that hydroxyl radicals can cause typical programmed cell death (PCD) in tobacco protoplasts and this design can be served as an effective experiment system to explore the mechanism of plant apoptosis.展开更多

Measurement of atmospheric ·OH is very difficult because of its high reactivity and low atmospheric abundance. In this article, a simple and highly sensitive method, high performance liquid chromatography coupled with coulometric detection （HPLC-CD）, was developed to determine ·OH indirectly by determining its reaction products with salicylic acid （SAL）, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid （2,3-DHBA）, and 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid （2,5-DHBA）. Under the optimum conditions for its determination, 2,3-DHBA and 2,5-DHBA could be well separated and the detection limits for 2,3-DHBA were 3 ×10^-10 mol/L and for 2,5-DHBA were 1.5 ×10^-10 mol/L, which were lower than most previous reports. This method was also applied to measure atmospheric hydroxyl radical levels and demonstrated the feasibility in clean and polluted air.展开更多

The amount of hydroxyl radicals generated at the electrodes prepared by the above-mentioned two methods was compared with that at the electrodes mingled with Bi or La prepared by electro-deposition. The experimental results indicate that the highest concentration of hydroxyl radicals generated by thermal-deposition, electro-deposition mingled with nothing, electro-deposition mingled with Bi or La was 0.781, 1.048, 1.838 or 2.044 μmol/L, respectively. When phenol was electrolyzed on the four electrodes at a current density of 30 mA/cm2, the removal efficiency of phenol after electrolysis for 1.5 h was 87.30%, 93.55%, 97.95% or 98.70%, TOC removal efficiency after electrolysis for 5 h was 86.76%, 94.26%, 98.53% or 99.60%, respectively. Through the degradation experiments of phenol, the amount of hydroxyl radicals was responsible for the removal efficiency of phenol. The electro-catalytic characteristics were investigated by SEM, the generation amount of hydroxyl radicals, the degradation degree of phenol and the stability and conductivity of the electrodes were also investigated. The experimental results indicate that the four electrodes all show good electro-catalytic characteristics; the electro-catalytic characteristics of the electrode mingled with La were superior to those of the other three ones, and the electrochemical degradation of phenol followed one-step reaction dynamics.展开更多

The surface morphology of Al2O3 dielectric layer was analysed using Atomic Force Microscopy （AFM）, where the size of Al2O3 particles was in the range of 2 μm to 5 μm. At the same time, the biochemical effect of hydroxyl radicals on the introduced organisms and the quality of ship＇s ballast water were studied. The results indicate that the main reasons of cell death are lipid peroxide and damage of the antioxidant enzyme system in Catalase （CAT）, Peroxidase （POD） and Superoxide dismutase （SOD）.

In the previous work, a new approach of measuring concentration of free hydroxyl radicals induced in cavitation flow by using methylene blue as the indicator was developed and used to study concentration of free radical induced in Venturi cavitation flow under various experimental conditions. In the present research, the radial evolution of a cavity bubble and the corresponding collapse pressure in sonic cavitation field are obtained by solving three different bubble dynamics equations： Rayleigh equation, Rayleigh-Plesset equation and Gilmore equation. By comparing with the experimental data on the radial evolution of a cavity bubble in the literature, it is found that the predicted results by the Gilmore equation, which takes account of the compressibility of fluid in addition to the viscosity and interfacial tension, agree with the experimental ones better than those by other two equations. Moreover, the theoretically predicted collapse pressures are consistent with the concentration of the free hydroxyl radical induced in the experimental venture. Thus, the concentration of the liberated free hydroxyl radical not only influences the reaction rate but also is used as an available parameter for measuring collapse intensity of cavities.展开更多

Hydroxyl radical directly attacks organic contaminants to make them oxidized. In the present paper, 2-naphthylamine is eventually degraded into hydrogen carbonate and carbon dioxide. The degradation process is analyzed by using an Ultraviolet (UV) absorption spectrum, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and chemical oxygen demand (COD). It is demonstrated that 2-naphthylamine (co =30 mg·1-1) is completely converted within 2h at 30℃ and 600 V by glow discharge electrolysis, and the degradation is strongly dependent upon the presence of ferrous ions. COD is ascended in the absence of ferrous ions and descended in the presence of them.展开更多

In this paper, the effect of biochemistry of hydroxyl radicals on introduced organisms in ballast water was experimentally investigated. The results indicate that the contents of chlorophyl-a, chlorophyl-b, chlorophyl-c and carotenoid are decreased by 35%-4% within 8.0s and further to the lowest limit of test 5 minutes. In addition, the main reasons of cell death are the lipid peroxidation, the strong destruction to the monose, amylose, protein, DNA and RNA of cell, and damage in CAT, POD and SOD of antioxidant enzyme system.展开更多

In this study, salicylic acid was employed as an innovative molecular probe of hydroxyl radical(OH) generated in aqueous nitrate and nitrite solutions through photochemical reactions. Kinetic studies showed that the steady-state concentrations of OH in aqueous NO- 3(10 mmol/L, pH=5) and NO- 2(10 mmol/L, pH=5) solutions under ultraviolet irradiation were at a same magnitude, 10 -15 mol/L. Apparent quantum yields of OH at 313 nm were measured as 0.011 and 0.07 for NO- 3 and NO- 2 respectively, all comparable to the results of previous studies.展开更多

Water was injected into the discharge region through the discharge nozzle electrode, and a large amount of fine water drops, formed and distributed in the discharge region, corona discharge was more effective to generate were observed. It was found that negative DC the hydroxyl radicals in comparison to positive DC corona discharge or negative pulsed discharge. A larger outer diameter of the nozzle electrode or a stronger electric field is beneficial for hydroxyl-radical generation. Moreover, there is a critical value in the flow rate of atomized water against the discharge voltage. Below this critical value, hydroxyl-radical generation increases with the increase in flow rate of the water, while above this value, it decreases. In addition, it is observed that OES from the discharge is mainly in the ultraviolet domain. The results are helpful in the study of the mechanism and application of plasma in pollution-control in either air or water.展开更多

The results indicate that the main reasons of cell death are lipid peroxide and damage of the antioxidant enzyme system in Catalase （CAT）, Peroxidase （POD） and Superoxide dismutase （SOD）. In addition, the quality of the ballast water was greatly improved.

文摘Enhancing the chemical reaction processes by means of the energy released in the collapse of micro bubbles or cavities in the cavitation flow is a new research area. In the previous work, a new approach of measuring concentration of free hydroxyl radicals induced in cavitation flow by using methylene blue as the indicator was developed and used to study concentration of free radical induced in Venturi cavitation flow under various experimental conditions. In the present research, the radial evolution of a cavity bubble and the corresponding collapse pressure in sonic cavitation field are obtained by solving three different bubble dynamics equations： Rayleigh equation, Rayleigh-Plesset equation and Gilmore equation. By comparing with the experimental data on the radial evolution of a cavity bubble in the literature, it is found that the predicted results by the Gilmore equation, which takes account of the compressibility of fluid in addition to the viscosity and interfacial tension, agree with the experimental ones better than those by other two equations. Moreover, the theoretically predicted collapse pressures are consistent with the concentration of the free hydroxyl radical induced in the experimental venture. Thus, the concentration of the liberated free hydroxyl radical not only influences the reaction rate but also is used as an available parameter for measuring collapse intensity of cavities.

文摘In an aqueous solution, normal electrolysis at high voltages switches over spontaneously to glow discharge electrolysis and gives rise to hydroxyl radical, hydrogen peroxide, and aqueous electron, as well as several other active species. Hydroxyl radical directly attacks organic contaminants to make them oxidized. In the present paper, 2-naphthylamine is eventually degraded into hydrogen carbonate and carbon dioxide. The degradation process is analyzed by using an Ultraviolet (UV) absorption spectrum, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and chemical oxygen demand (COD). It is demonstrated that 2-naphthylamine (co =30 mg·1-1) is completely converted within 2h at 30℃ and 600 V by glow discharge electrolysis, and the degradation is strongly dependent upon the presence of ferrous ions. COD is ascended in the absence of ferrous ions and descended in the presence of them.

文摘With physical method of micro-gap gas discharge, a large amount of hydroxyl radical can be produced in 20t/h pilot-scale system using the ionization of 02 and H2O. In this paper, the effect of biochemistry of hydroxyl radicals on introduced organisms in ballast water was experimentally investigated. The results indicate that the contents of chlorophyl-a, chlorophyl-b, chlorophyl-c and carotenoid are decreased by 35%-4% within 8.0s and further to the lowest limit of test 5 minutes. In addition, the main reasons of cell death are the lipid peroxidation, the strong destruction to the monose, amylose, protein, DNA and RNA of cell, and damage in CAT, POD and SOD of antioxidant enzyme system.
文摘The qualitative and quantitative analyses of reactive oxygen species are essential to determine their steady-state concentration and related reaction mechanisms in environmental aquatic systems. In this study, salicylic acid was employed as an innovative molecular probe of hydroxyl radical(OH) generated in aqueous nitrate and nitrite solutions through photochemical reactions. Kinetic studies showed that the steady-state concentrations of OH in aqueous NO- 3(10 mmol/L, pH=5) and NO- 2(10 mmol/L, pH=5) solutions under ultraviolet irradiation were at a same magnitude, 10 -15 mol/L. Apparent quantum yields of OH at 313 nm were measured as 0.011 and 0.07 for NO- 3 and NO- 2 respectively, all comparable to the results of previous studies.

文摘The aim of the present work is to quantitatively measure the hydroxyl radical concentration by using LIF（laserinduced fluorescence） in flame.The detailed physical models of spectral absorption lineshape broadening,collisional transition and quenching at elevated pressure are built.The fine energy level structure of the OH molecule is illustrated to understand the process with laser-induced fluorescence emission and others in the case without radiation,which include collisional quenching,rotational energy transfer（RET）,and vibrational energy transfer（VET）.Based on these,some numerical results are achieved by simulations in order to evaluate the fluorescence yield at elevated pressure.These results are useful for understanding the real physical processes in OH-LIF technique and finding a way to calibrate the signal for quantitative measurement of OH concentration in a practical combustor.

文摘Effects of discharge mode, voltage applied, size of the nozzle discharge electrode and flow rate of water on the generation of hydroxyl radical were investigated in air discharge with atomized water, by using optical emission spectroscopy （OES）. Water was injected into the discharge region through the discharge nozzle electrode, and a large amount of fine water drops, formed and distributed in the discharge region, corona discharge was more effective to generate were observed. It was found that negative DC the hydroxyl radicals in comparison to positive DC corona discharge or negative pulsed discharge. A larger outer diameter of the nozzle electrode or a stronger electric field is beneficial for hydroxyl-radical generation. Moreover, there is a critical value in the flow rate of atomized water against the discharge voltage. Below this critical value, hydroxyl-radical generation increases with the increase in flow rate of the water, while above this value, it decreases. In addition, it is observed that OES from the discharge is mainly in the ultraviolet domain. The results are helpful in the study of the mechanism and application of plasma in pollution-control in either air or water.
