However, little work has been done on the geochemical characteristics and origins of the oil in the J_(1)b reservoir. This study analyzes 44 oil and 14 source rock samples from the area in order to reveal their organic geochemical characteristics and the origins of the oils. The J_(1)b oils are characterized by a low Pr/Ph ratio and high β-carotene and gammacerane indices, which indicate that they were mainly generated from source rocks deposited in a hypersaline environment. The oils are also extremely enhanced in C_(29) regular steranes, possibly derived from halophilic algae. Oil-source correlation shows that the oils were derived from the Lower Permian Fengcheng Formation (P_(1)f) source rocks, which were deposited in a strongly stratified and highly saline water column with a predominance of algal/bacterial input in the organic matter. The source rocks of the Middle Permian lower-Wuerhe Formation (P_(2)w), which were deposited in fresh to slightly saline water conditions with a greater input of terrigenous organic matter, make only a minor contribution to the J_(1)b oils. The reconstruction of the oil accumulation process shows that the J_(1)b oil reservoir may have been twice charged during Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous and the Paleogene–Neogene, respectively. A large amount volume of hydrocarbons generated in the P_(1)f source rock and leaked from T_(1)b oil reservoirs migrated along faults connecting source beds and shallow-buried secondary faults into Jurassic traps, resulting in large-scale accumulations in J_(1)b. These results are crucial for understanding the petroleum system of the Mahu Sag and will provide valuable guidance for petroleum exploration in the shallower formations in the slope area of the sag.展开更多

These composites were characterized by nitrogen adsorption-desorption, TEM, FTIR, and UV-vis, and were tested as catalysts in oxidation desulfurization of model fuel composed of dibenzothiophene (DBT) and hydrocarbon, using H202 as the oxidant. These composites exhibited high activity in catalytic oxidation of DBT in model fuel and good reusing ability. The best performance was achieved by using the mesoporous HPW/Al_2O_3 with 15wt% HPW content, which resulted in a DBT conversion of 98% after 2 h reaction at 343 K, and it did not show significant activity degradation after 3 recycles. Characterization results showed that the mesoporous structure of alumina and the Keggin structure of HPW were preserved in the formed composite. These results suggested that HPW/ Al_2O_3 could be a promising catalyst in oxidative desulfurization process.展开更多

The structural properties of as-prepared catalysts were characterized using various analytical techniques including X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and nitrogen adsorption desorption. The experimental results showed that HPW was highly dispersed on mesoporous framework. The surface acidity of catalysts was analyzed by FTIR measurement of adsorbed pyridine.The surface Lewis acidity was improved with increasing the content of zirconium in the samples. The mesoporous composites were used as catalysts with H2O2 as oxidant for oxidative desulfurization of model fuel. The catalytic activity results showed that the surface Lewis acid sites acted as selective adsorption active sites for dibenzothiophene, which facilitated the sulfur removal from model fuel in the presence of arene. A slight decrease in activity of the recovered catalyst used in the proceeding rounds indicated the reusability of the catalyst.展开更多

[Method] After the activated wine yeast was added to the apple juice by sizing classification, rinsing, falling to pieces and squeezing, the preceding fermentation began. Every other day, parameters of fer- mentation broth such as temperature, pH, acidity, sugar content and bubble nurdbers were detected. Once the sugar content of the fermentation suspension was approaching 5 -6 °Bx, the following fermentation would start via pouring wine. After 20 -30 days, the cider was changed into origi- nal apple brandy by distillation. The last procedure was aging which included man-made speediness aging and oak wood aging about 20 days. The physical and chemical compositions before and after aging were measured. [ Result] 22.5 kg apple resulted into 16.56 L of juice. The juice yield was about 73.6% (10 ml/kg). The alcohol rate of distilled apple juice was 20.0%. The color of apple brandy was darker than that of original apple brandy. Alcohol level reduced, but total acidity, fixed acid, lipid and furfural content rose. [ Conclusion] The apple brandy was of particular flavor and high quality by selecting befitting fruit, activated wine yeast and feasible brewing, distillation and aging technology. It will be conductive to the development of apple processing industry and the research and development of key brandy technique.展开更多

文摘Rechargeable zinc-air batteries(ZABs)are a promising energy conversion device,which rely critically on electrocatalysts to accelerate their rate-determining reactions such as oxygen reduction(ORR)and oxygen evolution reactions(OER).Herein,we fabricate a range of bifunctional M-N-C(metal-nitrogen-carbon)catalysts containing M-Nx coordination sites and M/MxC nanoparticles(M=Co,Fe,and Cu)using a new class ofγ-cyclodextrin(CD)based metal-organic framework as the precursor.With the two types of active sites interacting with each other in the catalysts,the obtained Fe@C-FeNC and Co@C-CoNC display superior alkaline ORR activity in terms of low half-wave(E1/2)potential(~0.917 and 0.906 V,respectively),which are higher than Cu@C-CuNC(~0.829 V)and the commercial Pt/C(~0.861 V).As a bifunctional electrocatalyst,the Co@C-CoNC exhibits the best performance,showing a bifunctional ORR/OER overpotential(ΔE)of~0.732 V,which is much lower than that of Fe@C-FeNC(~0.831 V)and Cu@C-CuNC(~1.411 V),as well as most of the robust bifunctional electrocatalysts reported to date.Synchrotron X-ray absorption spectroscopy and density functional theory simulations reveal that the strong electronic correlation between metallic Co nanoparticles and the atomic Co-N4 sites in the Co@C-CoNC catalyst can increase the d-electron density near the Fermi level and thus effectively optimize the adsorption/desorption of intermediates in ORR/OER,resulting in an enhanced bifunctional electrocatalytic performance.The Co@C-CoNC-based rechargeable ZAB exhibited a maximum power density of 162.80 mW cm^(−2) at 270.30 mA cm^(−2),higher than the combination of commercial Pt/C+RuO2(~158.90 mW cm^(−2) at 265.80 mA cm^(−2))catalysts.During the galvanostatic discharge at 10 mA cm^(−2),the ZAB delivered an almost stable discharge voltage of 1.2 V for~140 h,signifying the virtue of excellent bifunctional ORR/OER electrocatalytic activity.

文摘A fuel cell is an energy conversion device that can continuously input fuel and oxidant into the device through an electrochemical reaction to release electrical energy.Although noble metals show good activity in fuel cell-related electrochemical reactions,their ever-increasing price considerably hinders their industrial application.Improvement of atom utilization efficiency is considered one of the most effective strategies to improve the mass activity of catalysts,and this allows for the use of fewer catalysts,saving greatly on the cost.Thus,single-atom catalysts(SACs)with an atom utilization efficiency of 100%have been widely developed,which show remarkable performance in fuel cells.In this review,we will describe recent progress on the development of SACs for membrane electrode assembly of fuel cell applications.First,we will introduce several effective routes for the synthesis of SACs.The reaction mechanism of the involved reactions will also be introduced as it is highly determinant of the final activity.Then,we will systematically summarize the application of Pt group metal(PGM)and nonprecious group metal(non-PGM)catalysts in membrane electrode assembly of fuel cells.This review will offer numerous experiences for developing potential industrialized fuel cell catalysts in the future.

文摘Spinel LiNi_(0.5)Mn_(1.5)O_(4)(LNMO),a 5 V class high voltage cathode,has been regarded as an attractive candidate to further improve the energy density of lithium-ion battery.The issue simultaneously enabling side stability and maintaining high interfacial kinetics,however,has not yet been resolved.Herein,we design a coherent Li_(1.3)A_(l0.3)Ti_(1.7)(PO)_(4)(LATP)layer that is crystally connected to the spinel LNMO host lattices,which offers fast lithium ions transportation as well as enhances the mechanical stability that prevents the particle fracture.Furthermore,the inactive Li_(3)BO_(3)(LBO)coating layer inhibits the corrosion of transition metals and continuous side reactions.Consequently,the coherent-engineered LNMO-LATPLBO cathode material exhibits superior electrochemical cycling stability in a window of 3.0–5.0 V,for example a high-capacity retention that is 89.7%after 500 cycles at 200 m A g-1obtained and enhanced rate performance(85.1 m A h g^(-1)at 800 m A g^(-1))when tested with a LiPF6-based carbonate electrolyte.Our work presents a new approach of engineering 5 V class spinel oxide cathode that combines interfacial coherent crystal lattice design and surface coating.

文摘Single-atom catalysts(SACs)have gained substantial attention because of their exceptional catalytic properties.However,the high surface energy limits their synthesis,thus creating significant challenges for further development.In the last few years,metal–organic frameworks(MOFs)have received significant consideration as ideal candidates for synthesizing SACs due to their tailorable chemistry,tunable morphologies,high porosity,and chemical/thermal stability.From this perspective,this review thoroughly summarizes the previously reported methods and possible future approaches for constructing MOF-based(MOF-derived-supported and MOF-supported)SACs.Then,MOF-based SAC's identification techniques are briefly assessed to understand their coordination environments,local electronic structures,spatial distributions,and catalytic/electrochemical reaction mechanisms.This review systematically highlights several photocatalytic and electrocatalytic applications of MOF-based SACs for energy conversion and storage,including hydrogen evolution reactions,oxygen evolution reactions,O_(2)/CO_(2)/N_(2) reduction reactions,fuel cells,and rechargeable batteries.Some light is also shed on the future development of this highly exciting field by highlighting the advantages and limitations of MOF-based SACs.

文摘The function of solid electrolytes and the composition of solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)are highly significant for inhibiting the growth of Li dendrites.Herein,we report an in-situ interfacial passivation combined with self-adaptability strategy to reinforce Li_(0.33)La_(0.557)TiO_(3)(LLTO)-based solid-state batteries.Specifically,a functional SEI enriched with LiF/Li_(3)PO_(4) is formed by in-situ electrochemical conversion,which is greatly beneficial to improving interface compatibility and enhancing ion transport.While the polarized dielectric BaTiO_(3)-polyamic acid(BTO-PAA,BP)film greatly improves the Li-ion transport kinetics and homogenizes the Li deposition.As expected,the resulting electrolyte offers considerable ionic conductivity at room temperature(4.3 x 10~(-4)S cm^(-1))and appreciable electrochemical decomposition voltage(5.23 V)after electrochemical passivation.For Li-LiFePO_(4) batteries,it shows a high specific capacity of 153 mA h g^(-1)at 0.2C after 100 cycles and a long-term durability of 115 mA h g^(-1)at 1.0 C after 800 cycles.Additionally,a stable Li plating/stripping can be achieved for more than 900 h at 0.5 mA cm^(-2).The stabilization mechanisms are elucidated by ex-situ XRD,ex-situ XPS,and ex-situ FTIR techniques,and the corresponding results reveal that the interfacial passivation combined with polarization effect is an effective strategy for improving the electrochemical performance.The present study provides a deeper insight into the dynamic adjustment of electrode-electrolyte interfacial for solid-state lithium batteries.

文摘MnO_(2)/Melem composites were synthesized with MnO_(2)nanoparticles loaded onto the Melem using the hydrothermal method.As raw materials for C and N carriers,Melem was prepared from melamine roasted at 354℃,and KMnO_(4)as a raw material for Mn,MnO_(2)nanoparticles were prepared using the hydrothermal synthesis of KMnO_(4).Scanning electron microscopy(SEM),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD),and a laser particle size analyzer were used for structural characterization,and the catalytic oxidation performance of the heavy oil was investigated at different reaction temperatures(100℃to 180℃)using MnO_(2)/Melem with an oxidant and donor protonic acid.The results showed that the synthesizedβ-MnO_(2)nanoparticles were successfully loaded onto the Melem surface;the oil samples before and after the reaction at different temperatures were subjected to SARA analysis using Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR),elemental analysis,gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS)and viscosity tests,respectively.It was determined that the hydrocarbons in the crude oil were converted to heavy mass by oxidation reactions with the oxidant mainly through a low-temperature oxidation process below 140℃in the heavy oil when the temperature exceeds 140℃,in addition to the oxidation reaction with the oxidant,a cleavage reaction in the carbon chain occurs to form hydrocarbon substances with lower molecular weights.

文摘Biomass-derived carbon has demonstrated great potentials as advanced electrode for capacitive deionization(CDI),owing to good electroconductivity,easy availability,intrinsic pores/channels.However,conventional simple pyrolysis of biomass always generates inadequate porosity with limited surface area.Moreover,biomass-derived carbon also suffers from poor wettability and single physical adsorption of ions,resulting in limited desalination performance.Herein,pore structure optimization and element co-doping are integrated on banana peels(BP)-derived carbon to construct hierarchically porous and B,N co-doped carbon with large ions-accessible surface area.A unique expansionactivation(EA)strategy is proposed to modulate the porosity and specific surface area of carbon.Furthermore,B,N co-doping could increase the ions-accessible sites with improved hydrophilicity,and promote ions adsorption.Benefitting from the synergistic effect of hierarchical porosity and B,N co-doping,the resultant electrode manifest enhanced CDI performance for NaCl with large desalination capacity(29.5 mg g^(-1)),high salt adsorption rate(6.2 mg g^(-1)min^(-1)),and versatile adsorption ability for other salts.Density functional theory reveals the enhanced deionization mechanism by pore and B,N co-doping.This work proposes a facile EA strategy for pore structure modulation of biomass-derived carbon,and demonstrates great potentials of integrating pore and heteroatoms-doping on constructing high-performance CDI electrode.

文摘Glycidol is a common lipid-derived foodborne toxicant mainly presents in refined oils and related foodstuffs.Vascular endothelial cells may be potential targets of the deleterious effects associated with glycidol exposure.In human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs),we found that glycidol treatment promoted endothelialto-mesenchymal transition(EndMT)at a lower concentration(0.5 mmol/L),while induced apoptosis and inflammation at a higher concentration(1 mmol/L).These harmful effects were achieved by the activation of NF-κB/MAPK signaling pathway and were mediated by reactive oxygen species(ROS).In addition,the protective potential of 6-C-(E-2-fluorostyryl)naringenin(6-CEFN)against glycidol was evaluated and compared with naringenin.HUVECs pre-treated with 6-CEFN,but not naringenin,displayed resistance to endothelial dysfunction caused by glycidol.

文摘Low-electrode capacitive deionization(FCDI)is an emerging desalination technology with great potential for removal and/or recycling ions from a range of waters.However,it still suffers from inefficient charge transfer and ion transport kinetics due to weak turbulence and low electric intensity in flow electrodes,both restricted by the current collectors.Herein,a new tip-array current collector(designated as T-CC)was developed to replace the conventional planar current collectors,which intensifies both the charge transfer and ion transport significantly.The effects of tip arrays on flow and electric fields were studied by both computational simulations and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy,which revealed the reduction of ion transport barrier,charge transport barrier and internal resistance.With the voltage increased from 1.0 to 1.5 and 2.0 V,the T-CC-based FCDI system(T-FCDI)exhibited average salt removal rates(ASRR)of 0.18,0.50,and 0.89μmol cm^(-2) min^(-1),respectively,which are 1.82,2.65,and 2.48 folds higher than that of the conventional serpentine current collectors,and 1.48,1.67,and 1.49 folds higher than that of the planar current collectors.Meanwhile,with the solid content in flow electrodes increased from 1 to 5 wt%,the ASRR for T-FCDI increased from 0.29 to 0.50μmol cm^(-2) min^(-1),which are 1.70 and 1.67 folds higher than that of the planar current collectors.Additionally,a salt removal efficiency of 99.89%was achieved with T-FCDI and the charge efficiency remained above 95%after 24 h of operation,thus showing its superior long-term stability.

文摘Photothermal conversion attracted lots of attention in the past years and sorts of materials were explored to enhance photothermal efficiency.In the past years,solar-driven desalination by photothermal conversion was proposed to release the shortage of fresh water and then it was considered much more important to prepare photothermal materials on large scales with high performance and low cost.In this review,we summarized the works on carbon-based photothermal materials in the past years,including the preparation as well as their application in steam generation.From these works,we give an outlook on the difficulties and chances of how to design and prepare carbon-based photothermal materials.

文摘A series of mesoporous phosphotungstic acid/alumina composites (HPW/Al_2O_3) with various HPW contents were synthesized by evaporation-induced self-assembly method. These composites were characterized by nitrogen adsorption-desorption, TEM, FTIR, and UV-vis, and were tested as catalysts in oxidation desulfurization of model fuel composed of dibenzothiophene (DBT) and hydrocarbon, using H202 as the oxidant. These composites exhibited high activity in catalytic oxidation of DBT in model fuel and good reusing ability. The best performance was achieved by using the mesoporous HPW/Al_2O_3 with 15wt% HPW content, which resulted in a DBT conversion of 98% after 2 h reaction at 343 K, and it did not show significant activity degradation after 3 recycles. Characterization results showed that the mesoporous structure of alumina and the Keggin structure of HPW were preserved in the formed composite. These results suggested that HPW/ Al_2O_3 could be a promising catalyst in oxidative desulfurization process.

文摘Nanoparticles of BaLiF3:Er^3+ were prepared from the quaternary microemulsions of Cetyltrim-Enthyl Ammonium Bromide (CTAB), n-butanol, n-octane, and water, using the hydrothermal-microemulsion technique. The complex fluorides were characterized by means of X-ray power diffraction, Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy (ESEM), and fluorescence spectra. The positions and intensifies of the peaks in the XRD pattern of the final products indicate the formation of BaLiF3·Er^3+. No other peaks or impurities were detected. The average size of the nanoparticles, calculated with the Debye-Scherrer equation was 98.45 nm, which was in agreement with the result of ESEM. The infrared fluorescence spectra consisted of four peaks with a predominant peak located at 1540 nm.

文摘In this paper,a new method combines chemical/physical crosslinking,and emulsification-foaming porogenic was adopted to prepare n-hydroxyapatite(n-HA)/polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)/chitosan(CS)porous composite hydrogel using artificial cornea scaffold materials.The fabricate conditions,including the type and amount of emulsification-foaming porogen,mixing time and speed etc.were researched.The results showed the optimal condition that the alkylphenol polyoxyethylene ether(OP)acted as emulsification-foaming porogen,with the ratio of WPVA/WOP as 3.75,and mixing 15 min with a stirring speed of 800 r·min-1.Additionally,the fabricated composite hydrogel scaffold materials possessed interconnected internal holes,a moisture content of above 65%,and tensile strength of above 6 MPa.In vitro cytotoxicity and acute systemic toxicity assay confirmed that the scaffolds did not show any cytotoxicity.The as-prepared hydrogel could be a promising candidate for artificial cornea scaffold material.

文摘Mesoporous silica-zirconia supported phosphotungstic acid was synthesized by evaporation induced self-assembly method and used as oxidative desulfurization catalysts. The structural properties of as-prepared catalysts were characterized using various analytical techniques including X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and nitrogen adsorption desorption. The experimental results showed that HPW was highly dispersed on mesoporous framework. The surface acidity of catalysts was analyzed by FTIR measurement of adsorbed pyridine.The surface Lewis acidity was improved with increasing the content of zirconium in the samples. The mesoporous composites were used as catalysts with H2O2 as oxidant for oxidative desulfurization of model fuel. The catalytic activity results showed that the surface Lewis acid sites acted as selective adsorption active sites for dibenzothiophene, which facilitated the sulfur removal from model fuel in the presence of arene. A slight decrease in activity of the recovered catalyst used in the proceeding rounds indicated the reusability of the catalyst.
文摘[Objective] The aim was to study the brewing technology of apple brandy. [Method] After the activated wine yeast was added to the apple juice by sizing classification, rinsing, falling to pieces and squeezing, the preceding fermentation began. Every other day, parameters of fer- mentation broth such as temperature, pH, acidity, sugar content and bubble nurdbers were detected. Once the sugar content of the fermentation suspension was approaching 5 -6 °Bx, the following fermentation would start via pouring wine. After 20 -30 days, the cider was changed into origi- nal apple brandy by distillation. The last procedure was aging which included man-made speediness aging and oak wood aging about 20 days. The physical and chemical compositions before and after aging were measured. [ Result] 22.5 kg apple resulted into 16.56 L of juice. The juice yield was about 73.6% (10 ml/kg). The alcohol rate of distilled apple juice was 20.0%. The color of apple brandy was darker than that of original apple brandy. Alcohol level reduced, but total acidity, fixed acid, lipid and furfural content rose. [ Conclusion] The apple brandy was of particular flavor and high quality by selecting befitting fruit, activated wine yeast and feasible brewing, distillation and aging technology. It will be conductive to the development of apple processing industry and the research and development of key brandy technique.
