Influence of external diffusion, internal diffusion and heat transfer on the intrinsic reaction rate was investigated and the conditions free of internal and external diffusion resistance have been determined. In the experiments, in order to correctly evaluate the intrinsic kinetics parameters for reducing Fe203 to Fe3O4, the reaction temperatures were set between 440 ℃ and 490 ℃. However, in order to distinguish the reduction of Fe304 to FeO from that of FeO to Fe, the reaction temperature in the experiment was set to be greater than 570 ℃. Intrinsic kinetics of iron oxide reduction by hydrogen was established and the newly established kinetic models were validated by the experimental data.展开更多

The reduction degree of Bama ilmenite is enhanced with increasing temperature and the molar ratio of carbon to oxygen, and the reaction rate varies with temperature and reduction time simultaneously. The phase transformation, chemical composition, microstructure and morphology of reduced samples were investigated by using X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy, and energy disperse spectroscopy, respectively. The high content of impurities in Bama ilmenite evidently bates the reduction of ilmenite. Forming the enrichment zone of manganese prevents complete reduction of Fe2+. The reduction products are mostly reduced iron, rutile, reduced rutiles, Ti3O5 and pseudobrookite solid solution. The reduction kinetics was also discussed. The results show that the reduction temperature is a key factor to control reaction rate.展开更多

Combined with the measuring results and theoretical analyses,the reasons for the peak or the maximum adsorption capacity appearing in the excess adsorption isotherms are explained.The rules of the peak occurrence are summarized.And then,based on the features of coal pore structure,the adsorption features of high-pressure gas,the microcosmic interaction relationship of coal surface and CH4 molecule,and the coalbed methane reservoir conditions,three theoretical assumptions on the coal adsorption high-pressure CH_4 are suggested.Thereafter,on the basis of these theoretical assumptions,the Ono-Kondo lattice model is processed for simplification and deformation. Subsequently,the equations modeling the excess adsorption isotherm of high-pressure CH_4 adsorption on coal are obtained.Through the verification on the measurement data,the fitting results indicate that it is feasible to use the Ono-Kondo lattice mode to model the excess adsorption isotherm of high-pressure CH_4 adsorption on coal.展开更多

Under the condition of getting away from the influence of gas diffusion and gas–solid heat transfer and mass transfer, the reaction of Fe2O3 to Fe3O4, Fe3O4 to Fe O and Fe O to Fe in the process of single reaction can be clearly distinguished from each other, and the relevant activation energy is characterized to be 75.4, 74.4, and 84.0 k J·mol-1, respectively. Therefore, the change of surface area in the reaction process due to losing oxygen could be easily calculated by combining it with pre-exponential parameters of Arrhenius equations. In conclusion, these kinetic parameters are verified by the experimental data for the process of ore reduced by carbon monoxide in a packed bed.展开更多

Mounting inter...Pyrolysis of Shenmu coal was performed in fixed-bed reactors indirectly heated by reducing operating pressure and mounting internals in the reactor to explore their synergetic effects on coal pyrolysis. Mounting internals particularly designed greatly improved the heat transfer inside coal bed and raised the yield of tar production.Reducing pressure further facilitated the production of tar through its suppression of secondary reactions occurring in the reactor. The absolute increase in tar yield reached 3.33 wt% in comparison with the pyrolysis in the reactor without internals under atmospheric pressure. The obtained tar yield in the reactor with internals under reduced pressure was even higher than the yield of Gray–King assay. Through experiments in a laboratory fixed bed reactor, it was also clarified that the effect of reducing pressure is related to volatile release rate in pyrolysis. It did not obviously vary tar yield at pyrolysis temperatures below 600 ℃, while the effect was evident at 650 and 700 ℃ but became limited again above 800 ℃. Under reduced pressure the produced tar contained more aliphatics and phenols but less aromatics.展开更多

Via atmospheric methanation in a laboratory fluidized ...The performance characteristics of isothermal fluidized bed syngas methanation for substitute natural gas are investigated over a self-made Ni–Mg/Al2O3 catalyst. Via atmospheric methanation in a laboratory fluidized bed reactor it was clarified that the CO conversion varied in 5% when changing the space velocity in 40–120 L·g-1·h-1but the conversion increased obviously by raising the superficial gas velocity from 4 to12.4 cm·s-1. The temperature at 823 K is suitable for syngas methanation while obvious deposition of uneasyoxidizing Cγoccurs on the catalyst at temperatures around 873 K. From a kinetic aspect, the lowest reaction temperature is suggested to be 750 K when the space velocity is 60 L·g-1·h-1. Raising the H2/CO ratio of the syngas increased proportionally the CO conversion and CH4 selectivity, showing that at enough high H2/CO ratios the active sites on the catalyst are sufficient for CO adsorption and in turn the reaction with H2 for forming CH4.Introducing CO2 into the syngas feed suppresses the water gas shift and Boudouard reactions and thus increased H2 consumption. The ratio of CO2/CO in syngas should be better below 0.52 because varying the ratio from 0.52 to0.92 resulted in negligible increases in the H2 conversion and CH4 selectivity but decreased the CH4 yield.Introducing steam into the feed gas affected little the CO conversion but decreased the selectivity to CH4. The tested Ni–Mg/Al2O3 catalyst manifested good stability in structure and activity even in syngas containing water vapor.展开更多

The total pressure was kept as 100 kPa and the temperature was varied from 850 to 1 100 ℃ at a total residence time of 1 s. Steady-state deposition rates as functions of reactor length and of temperature,investigated at different n(H2) /n(MTS) values,show that hydrogen exhibits strongly influences on the deposition rate. Especially,the deposition of Si co-deposit can be obtained in broader substrate length and at higher temperatures with increasing hydrogen partial pressure. Influence of hydrogen on the deposition process was also studied using gas phase composition and deposit composition analysis at various n(H2) /n(MTS) . SEM micrographs directly show the variation of surface morphologies at various n(H2) /n(MTS) . It can be found that the crystal grain of the deposit at 1 100 ℃ is better developed and the crystallization is also improved with increasing n(H2) /n(MTS) .展开更多

Effects of different O/P ratios on glass structures and properties were analyzed. Differential thermal analysis （DTA） and infrared spectroscopy （IR） techniques were applied for low-melting glass binder. It was found that the glass transition temperature（T） was about 300 ℃ and softening temperature（T1） was about 480 ℃. The choice of O/P ratio was very important to the glass transition and softening temperatures. When more P=O bonds existed in the glass networks, P-O-P bond angle was deformed with decreasing of the ratio of O/E The coatings could adhere to the substrates instantaneously at 800 ℃ when the content of binder exceeded 3wt%. The optimal content of glass binder was 5wt%.展开更多

With the fluidizing gas velocity or the bed outlet height rising, the solids flow out of bed more quickly with a wider spread of residence time and a larger RTD variance(σ2). It is just the heterogeneous fluidized structure that being more prominent with the bed height increasing induces the widely non-uniform RTD. The division of the individual internal circulation into double ones improves the flow pattern to be close to plug flow.展开更多

文摘High-purity anhydrous magnesium chloride was prepared from magnesia and ammonium chloride.The chlorination process was analyzed and then the critical stages affecting the purity of anhydrous magnesium chloride were pinpointed.The effect of sample dimension on the above critical stages was investigated respectively.The purity guarantee mechanism of anhydrous magnesium chloride was proposed.After that,magnesium metal was obtained via electrolyzing the anhydrous magnesium chloride-containing molten salt.The new process for the continuous production of magnesium metal from magnesia was proposed and discussed.The incomplete chlorination reaction and the hydrolysis of anhydrous magnesium chloride are the two critical stages affecting the purity of the anhydrous magnesium chloride.The dimension of the sample can influence reaction process and reaction mechanism,and thus the problems of incomplete chlorination reaction and hydrolysis can be solved together.The magnesia content in anhydrous magnesium chloride was below 0.1 wt.%when the ratio of height to diameter of the sample was over 2.43.The content of impurities in the magnesium metal obtained met the specifications of the product Mg9980.The current efficiency was(94.7±1.8)%and the electricity consumption was(9107±97)kW h/t.

文摘A reaction bonding technique and a method of layer coating were developed to fabricate porous SiC.The green body was prepared using 250.0μm SiC particles as the raw material,fineα-Al2O3 and SiC powders with mass ratio of 2.5:1as sintering additives,65.2μm graphite as the pore-forming agent and polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)as the binder.The micro powders were coated on the surface of coarse SiC particles.After sintering,fine SiC particles were oxidized to silica(SiO2)then transforming into cristobalite,which finally reacted withα-Al2O3 to produce mullite(3Al2O3·2SiO2).The results show that SiC particles are bonded by the mullite and oxidation-derived SiO2.The apparent porosity of the specimens decreases from 31.3%to 20.5%with the amount of micro powders increasing from 5 mass%to 20 mass%.The bending strength increases at the first stage and then decreases with the increase of fine powders,and the specimen with 10 mass%of fine powders shows relatively high bending strength of 23.5 MPa.

文摘The intrinsic kinetics of iron oxide reduced by carbon monoxide is evaluated by a method of online measuring concentration of off-gas in an isothermal differential micro-packed bed. Under the condition of getting away from the influence of gas diffusion and gas–solid heat transfer and mass transfer, the reaction of Fe2O3 to Fe3O4, Fe3O4 to Fe O and Fe O to Fe in the process of single reaction can be clearly distinguished from each other, and the relevant activation energy is characterized to be 75.4, 74.4, and 84.0 k J·mol-1, respectively. Therefore, the change of surface area in the reaction process due to losing oxygen could be easily calculated by combining it with pre-exponential parameters of Arrhenius equations. In conclusion, these kinetic parameters are verified by the experimental data for the process of ore reduced by carbon monoxide in a packed bed.

文摘Pyrolysis of Shenmu coal was performed in fixed-bed reactors indirectly heated by reducing operating pressure and mounting internals in the reactor to explore their synergetic effects on coal pyrolysis. Mounting internals particularly designed greatly improved the heat transfer inside coal bed and raised the yield of tar production.Reducing pressure further facilitated the production of tar through its suppression of secondary reactions occurring in the reactor. The absolute increase in tar yield reached 3.33 wt% in comparison with the pyrolysis in the reactor without internals under atmospheric pressure. The obtained tar yield in the reactor with internals under reduced pressure was even higher than the yield of Gray–King assay. Through experiments in a laboratory fixed bed reactor, it was also clarified that the effect of reducing pressure is related to volatile release rate in pyrolysis. It did not obviously vary tar yield at pyrolysis temperatures below 600 ℃, while the effect was evident at 650 and 700 ℃ but became limited again above 800 ℃. Under reduced pressure the produced tar contained more aliphatics and phenols but less aromatics.

文摘The present work investigated the synergetic effect of pyrolysis-derived char,tar and gas(py-gas)on NO reduction,which may occur in circulating fluidized-bed decoupling combustion(CFBDC)system treating N-rich fuel.Experiments were carried out in a lab-scale drop-tube reactor for NO reduction by some binary mixtures of reagents including char/py-gas,tar/py-gas and tar/char.At a specified total mass rate of0.15 g·min^-1 for NO-reduction reagent,the char/py-gas(binary reagent)enabled the best synergetic NO reduction in comparison with the others.There existed effective interactions between char and some species in py-gas(i.e.,H2,CxHy)during NO reduction by pyrolysis products,meanwhile the tar/py-gas or tar/char mixture only caused a positive effect when tar proportion was necessarily lowered to about 26%.On the other hand,the synergetic effects were not improved for all tested binary reagents by increasing the reaction temperature and residence time.

文摘The performance characteristics of isothermal fluidized bed syngas methanation for substitute natural gas are investigated over a self-made Ni–Mg/Al2O3 catalyst. Via atmospheric methanation in a laboratory fluidized bed reactor it was clarified that the CO conversion varied in 5% when changing the space velocity in 40–120 L·g-1·h-1but the conversion increased obviously by raising the superficial gas velocity from 4 to12.4 cm·s-1. The temperature at 823 K is suitable for syngas methanation while obvious deposition of uneasyoxidizing Cγoccurs on the catalyst at temperatures around 873 K. From a kinetic aspect, the lowest reaction temperature is suggested to be 750 K when the space velocity is 60 L·g-1·h-1. Raising the H2/CO ratio of the syngas increased proportionally the CO conversion and CH4 selectivity, showing that at enough high H2/CO ratios the active sites on the catalyst are sufficient for CO adsorption and in turn the reaction with H2 for forming CH4.Introducing CO2 into the syngas feed suppresses the water gas shift and Boudouard reactions and thus increased H2 consumption. The ratio of CO2/CO in syngas should be better below 0.52 because varying the ratio from 0.52 to0.92 resulted in negligible increases in the H2 conversion and CH4 selectivity but decreased the CH4 yield.Introducing steam into the feed gas affected little the CO conversion but decreased the selectivity to CH4. The tested Ni–Mg/Al2O3 catalyst manifested good stability in structure and activity even in syngas containing water vapor.

文摘Chemical vapor deposition(CVD) of SiC from methyltrichlorosilane(MTS) was studied at two different molar ratios of H2 to MTS(n(H2) /n(MTS) ) . The total pressure was kept as 100 kPa and the temperature was varied from 850 to 1 100 ℃ at a total residence time of 1 s. Steady-state deposition rates as functions of reactor length and of temperature,investigated at different n(H2) /n(MTS) values,show that hydrogen exhibits strongly influences on the deposition rate. Especially,the deposition of Si co-deposit can be obtained in broader substrate length and at higher temperatures with increasing hydrogen partial pressure. Influence of hydrogen on the deposition process was also studied using gas phase composition and deposit composition analysis at various n(H2) /n(MTS) . SEM micrographs directly show the variation of surface morphologies at various n(H2) /n(MTS) . It can be found that the crystal grain of the deposit at 1 100 ℃ is better developed and the crystallization is also improved with increasing n(H2) /n(MTS) .

文摘The low-melting phosphate glass was prepared for production of glass binders for protective coating of steel slab. Effects of different O/P ratios on glass structures and properties were analyzed. Differential thermal analysis （DTA） and infrared spectroscopy （IR） techniques were applied for low-melting glass binder. It was found that the glass transition temperature（T） was about 300 ℃ and softening temperature（T1） was about 480 ℃. The choice of O/P ratio was very important to the glass transition and softening temperatures. When more P=O bonds existed in the glass networks, P-O-P bond angle was deformed with decreasing of the ratio of O/E The coatings could adhere to the substrates instantaneously at 800 ℃ when the content of binder exceeded 3wt%. The optimal content of glass binder was 5wt%.
文摘A series of experiments on a solid feed system was performed to investigate the effect of negative pressure gradient on the gas-solid flow pattern and hydrodynamic characteristics.Based on the non-fluidized gas-solid two phase flow and particulate mechanics in the standpipe,a method for predicting the pressure of the air passing through the recycle chamber and the pressure drop through the loop seal slit in these systems is also presented.The predicted pressure profile along the negative pressure gradient from the proposed model exhibits a good agreement with the experimental data.The experimental data show that the gas flow in the standpipe is always upward in the negative pressure gradients,while the direction ofthe superficial gas velocity through the recycle chamber of the loop seal does not affect the pressure drop in standpipe.It increases with an increasing negative pressure gradient.

文摘The present work focuses on a numerical investigation of the solids residence time distribution(RTD) and the fluidized structure of a multi-compartment fluidized bed, in which the flow pattern is proved to be close to plug flow by using computational fluid dynamics(CFD) simulations. With the fluidizing gas velocity or the bed outlet height rising, the solids flow out of bed more quickly with a wider spread of residence time and a larger RTD variance(σ2). It is just the heterogeneous fluidized structure that being more prominent with the bed height increasing induces the widely non-uniform RTD. The division of the individual internal circulation into double ones improves the flow pattern to be close to plug flow.
