采用TFCA-4PC协同萃取体系从废旧锂离子电池酸浸液中选择性萃取镍

采用一种由桐油基羧酸(TFCA)与异烟酸酯(4PC)组成的协同溶剂萃取(SSX)体系,从含Mg/Li的废旧锂离子电池(LIBs)酸浸液中选择性萃取Ni。SSX体系对Ni表现出较强的协同作用,这主要归因于TFCA可以与Ni形成较为稳定的多元螯环结构,因此,体系对Ni的选择性得到增强。在优化条件下,经过单级萃取,Ni的萃取率达到97.3%,而Mg和Li的萃取率分别为0和2.29%。随后,负载有机相经过300mg/LNiSO_(4)洗涤后采用0.2 mol/L H_(2)SO_(4)反萃,获得的反萃液中含有11.52 g/L的Ni和<6 mg/L的Li。

Development and application of multi-field coupled high-pressure triaxial apparatus for soil

The increasing severity of ground subsidence,ground fissure and other disasters caused by the excessive exploitation of deep underground resources has highlighted the pressing need for effective management.A significant contributing factor to the challenges faced is the inadequacy of existing soil mechanics experimental instruments in providing effective indicators,creating a bottleneck in comprehensively understanding the mechanisms of land subsidence.It is urgent to develop a multi-field and multi-functional soil mechanics experimental system to address this issue.Based soil mechanics theories,the existing manufacturing capabilities of triaxial apparatus and the practical demands of the test system,a set of multi-field coupled high-pressure triaxial system is developed tailored for testing deep soils(at depths of approximately 3000 m)and soft rock.This system incorporates specialized design elements such as high-pressure chamber and horizontal deformation testing devices.In addition to the conventional triaxial tester functions,its distinctive feature encompass a horizontal deformation tracking measuring device,a water release testing device and temperature control device for the sample.This ensemble facilitates testing of horizontal and vertical deformation water release and other parameters of samples under a specified stress conditions,at constant or varying temperature ranging from-40℃–90℃.The accuracy of the tested parameters meets the requirements of relevant current specifications.The test system not only provides scientifically robust data for revealing the deformation and failure mechanism of soil subjected to extreme temperature,but also offers critical data support for major engineering projects,deep exploration and mitigation efforts related to soil deformation-induced disaster.

Cyclic metallurgical process for extracting V and Cr from vanadium slag: Part Ⅱ. Separation and recovery of Cr from vanadium precipitated solution

Cyclic metallurgical process for separation and recovery of Cr from vanadium precipitated solution by precipitation with PbCO_(3)and leaching with Na_(2)CO_(3)was investigated.The concentration of Cr residue in the solution decreases from 2.360 to 0.001 g/L by adding PbCO_(3)into vanadium precipitated solution according to Pb/Cr molar ratio of 2.5,adjusting the pH to 3.0 and stirring for 180 min at 30℃.Then,the precipitates were leached with hot Na_(2)CO_(3)solution to obtain leaching solution containing Na_(2)CrO_(4)and leaching residue containing PbCO_(3).The leaching efficiency of Cr reaches 96.43%by adding the precipitates into 0.5 mol/L Na_(2)CO_(3)solution with the mass ratio of liquid to solid(L/S)of 10:1 mL/g and stirring for 60 min under pH 9.5 at 70℃.After filtration,leaching residue is reused in Cr precipitation and leaching solution is used to circularly leach the Cr precipitates until Na_(2)CrO_(4)approaches the saturation.Finally,the product of Na_(2)CrO_(4)·4H_(2)O is obtained by evaporation and crystallization of leaching solution.

Thermodynamic analysis for separation of vanadium and chromium in V(Ⅳ)-Cr(Ⅲ)-H_2O system

To recycle vanadium and chromium from the V?Cr-bearing reducing slag,the thermodynamics of separating V(IV)and Cr(III)at 298 K was summarized in the form of potential-pH diagram and activity-pH diagram.The potential-pH diagrams of V-Mn-H2O and Cr-Mn-H2O systems show that the electrode potential of MnO2/Mn2+is higher than that of VO2+/VO2+but lower than that of Cr2O7 2-/Cr3+,which proves that it is feasible to selectively oxidize low valent vanadium using MnO2.The activity-pH diagrams of V(V)-H2O and Cr(III)-H2O systems show that the precipitation pH of V(V)is far lower than that of Cr(III),and therefore V(V)and Cr(III)can be separated through precipitation method.Based on the thermodynamic analysis,the flowsheet of recovery of vanadium and chromium from the V-Cr-bearing reducing slag is designed.

Separation and recovery of Ni from copper electrolyte by crystallization of nickel ammonium sulfate double salt

The separation and recovery of Ni from the copper electrolyte by crystallization of nickel ammonium sulfate double salt were studied.It is found that the solubility of copper sulfate at the same temperature is less than that of nickel sulfate,while the solubility of copper ammonium sulfate is greater than that of nickel ammonium sulfate.So,by adding(NH_(4))_(2)SO_(4),the Ni can be selectively crystallized from the copper electrolyte.By adding(NH_(4))_(2)SO_(4)at the molar ratio of(NH_(4))_(2)SO_(4)/NiSO_(4)≤0.8,and crystallizing at−15℃for 10 h,the Ni in the copper electrolyte can be crystallized in the form of Ni(NH_(4))_(2)(SO_(4))_(2)×6H_(2)O.The qualified product of NiSO_(4)×6H_(2)O can be obtained by pyrolyzing the crystals,dissolving the pyrolysis product in water,and then concentrating the dissolved solution for crystallization.The method of double salt crystallization is a clean,environmentally-friendly,cost-effective and efficient method for separating and recovering nickel from copper electrolyte.

Cyclic metallurgical process for extracting Ⅴ and Cr from vanadium slag: Part Ⅰ. Separation and recovery of Ⅴ from chromium-containing vanadate solution

The separation and recovery of V from chromium-containing vanadate solution were investigated by a cyclic metallurgical process including selective precipitation of vanadium,vanadium leaching and preparation of vanadium pentoxide.By adding Ca(OH)_(2) and ball milling,not only the V in the solution can be selectively precipitated,but also the leaching kinetics of the precipitate is significantly improved.The precipitation efficiency of V is 99.59%by adding Ca(OH)_(2) according to Ca/V molar ratio of 1.75:1 into chromium-containing vanadate solution and ball milling for 60 min at room temperature,while the content of Cr in the precipitate is 0.04%.The leaching rate of V reaches 99.35%by adding NaHCO_(3) into water according to NaHCO_(3)/V molar ratio of 2.74:1 to leach V from the precipitate with L/S ratio of 4:1 mL/g and stirring for 60 min at room temperature.The crystals of NH_(4)VO_(3) are obtained by adjusting the leaching solution pH to be 8.0 with CO2 and then adding NH_(4)HCO_(3) according to NH_(4)HCO_(3)/NaVO_(3) molar ratio of 1:1 and stirring for 8 h at room temperature.After filtration,the crystallized solution containing ammonia is reused to leach the precipitate of calcium vanadates,and the leaching efficiency of V is>99%after stirring for 1 h at room temperature.Finally,the product of V_(2)O_(5) with purity of 99.6%is obtained by calcining the crystals at 560℃ for 2 h.

A Novel Fuzzy Direct Torque Control System for Three-level Inverter-fed Induction Machine

Diode clamped multi-level inverter （DCMLI） has a wide application prospect in high-voltage and adjustable speed drive systems due to its low stress on switching devices, low harmonic output, and simple structure. However, the problem of complexity of selecting vectors and capacitor voltage unbalance needs to be solved when the algorithm of direct torque control （DTC） is implemented on DCMLI. In this paper, a fuzzy DTC system of an induction machine fed by a three-level neutral-point-clamped （NPC） inverter is proposed. After introducing fuzzy logic, optimal selecting switching state is realized by applying various strategies which can distinguish the grade of the errors of stator flux linkage, torque, the neutral-point potential, and the position of stator flux linkage. Consequently, the neutral-point potential unbalance, the dr/dr of output voltage and the switching loss are restrained effectively, and desirable dynamic and steady-state performances of induction machines can be obtained for the DTC scheme. A design method of the fuzzy controller is introduced in detail, and the relevant simulation and experimental results have verified the feasibility of the proposed control algorithm.

Experimental and numerical investigation of groundwater head losses on and nearby short intersections between disc-shaped fractures

Discrete fracture models are used for investigating precise processes of groundwater flow in fractured rocks,while a disc-shaped parallel-plates model for a single fracture is more reasonable and efficient for computational treatments.The flow velocity has a large spatial differentiation which is more likely to produce non-linear flow and additional head losses on and nearby intersections in such shaped fractures,therefore it is necessary to understand and quantify them.In this study,both laboratory experiments and numerical simulations were performed to investigate the total head loss on and nearby the intersections as well as the local head loss exactly on the intersections,which were not usually paid sufficient attention or even ignored.The investigation results show that these two losses account for 29.17%-84.97%and 0-73.57%of the entire total head loss in a fracture,respectively.As a result,they should be necessarily considered for groundwater modeling in fractured rocks.Furthermore,both head losses become larger when aperture and flow rate increase and intersection length decreases.Particularly,the ratios of these two head losses to the entire total head loss in a fracture could be well statistically explained by power regression equations with variables of aperture,intersection length,and flow rates,both of which achieved high coefficients of determination.It could be feasible through this type of study to provide a way on how to adjust the groundwater head from those obtained by numerical simulations based on the traditional linear flow model.Finally,it is practicable and effective to implement the investigation approach combining laboratory experiments with numerical simulations for quantifying the head losses on and nearby the intersections between disc-shaped fractures.

Gas release characteristics during carbonization of iron coke hot briquette and influence of heating rate

The release characteristics of CH_(4),H_(2),CO and CO_(2) from iron coke hot briquette(ICHB)during carbonization were studied.The results show that compared with briquette without iron ore,Fe_(3)O_(4) can inhibit the release rate of H2 and promote the production of CO and CO_(2).In addition,when the heating rate increases from 3 to 7℃/min,the release rates of CH4 and H2 increase,while the release rates of CO and CO_(2) first increase and then decrease.The carbonization process of ICHB was segmented,and corresponding kinetic analysis was carried out.The results show that the activation energy of StageⅡand StageⅣis higher in the carbonization process of ICHB,and the active pyrolysis of coal and the reduction of iron ore occur in these two stages.In addition,the effect of heating rate on the kinetic parameters of ICHB carbonization process was investigated.It was found that when the heating rate increased,the reaction activation energy of StageⅣdecreased first and then increased,which was consistent with the release law of CO and CO_(2).The analysis showed that the increase in heating rate leads to more reactions at higher temperatures,resulting in an increase in the release rate of some gases.In addition,thermal hysteresis can also cause some processes to fail to fully react at the end of heating.It is also found that the apparent activation energy and preexponential factor have kinetic compensation effect during the car-bonization of ICHB.

Existing form of Mo(Ⅵ)in acidic sulfate solution

The existing form of molybdenum in acidic sulfate solution was studied by means of ion exchange, infrared （IR） spectra and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS）. The results indicate that the anionic molybdenum species are predominant in acidic sulfate solution, and Mo（VI） can combine with sulfate radical to form heteropoly acid anions [Mo205（804）2]2- and [MoO2（HSO4）4]2-. With the decrease in solution pH from 1.92 to 0.06, the existing form of Mo（VI） changes from MovO21（OH）3^3- to [Mo205（S04）2]2- and then becomes [MoOz（HSO4）4]2-, which results in the decrease in the resin adsorption capacity for molybdenum.
