It also studies IPv6 transition technical problems facing home gateways and gives the summaries to the main protocol of each node of home network and their mutual relations. The key nodes of the home network based on IPv6, including the hardware design and software design of the home gateway and home network controller, are systematically de-signed in the paper. Finally, it illustrates the actual test environment and test in detail. The paper gives a view of the fact that the intelligent home appliances are becoming the current trend with the accelerating the transition of IPv4 to IPv6 and home network-wide implementation of IPv6 is about to become a reality, holding that the network controllers and home gateway based on ARM processor can support IPv6 and carry on the implementation of remote control and local control based on Web Browser.展开更多

Results revealed that Cr(Ⅵ) absorption was enhanced and the adsorption amount for Cr(Ⅵ) increased from 155.7 to 190.8 mg/g when KCl concentration increased from 100 to 200 mg/L in the adsorption process, which was attributed to the stronger driving force. However, the adsorption amount sharply decreased to 90.2 mg/g when KCl concentration reached up to 1000 mg/L suggesting the negative effect for Cr(Ⅵ) removal that high KCl concentration had. As for the effect of BSA on ion adsorption, the amount for Cr(Ⅵ) significantly declined to 78.3 mg/g and p H was found to be an important factor contributing to this significant reduction. Then, the desorption performance was also conducted and it was obtained that the presence of KCl had negligible effect on Cr(Ⅵ) desorption, while promoted by the addition of BSA. The incomplete desorption was obtained and the residual chromium ions onto the electrode after desorption was detected via energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS). Based on above analysis, the enhanced removal mechanism for Cr(Ⅵ) in MCDI was found to be consisted of ion adsorption onto electrode surface, the redox reaction of Cr(Ⅵ) into Cr(III)and precipitation, which was demonstrated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and scanning electron microscope(SEM).展开更多
