This solution was obtained through the reaction between metallic lithium and deionized water where hydrogen is produced and by exposing the metal at ambient conditions. In the transformation process, atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> gas reacts directly with LiOH solution, in both cases, the CO<sub>2</sub> transformation kinetics was different. For this purpose, reactions between CO<sub>2</sub> and LiOH solution were carried out under controlled temperature and the second process only with metallic lithium, which was exposed at room temperature, however, in these two processes lithium carbonate oxide was formed and identified. According to the results, the efficiency in CO<sub>2</sub> transformation is a function of temperature value which was variable until completely obtaining the by-product, its XRD characterization indicated the formation only of Li<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub> in both procedures. Under laboratory conditions lithium compounds selectively reacted with CO<sub>2</sub>. In the same way, there is an alternative procedure to obtain LiOH and Li<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub> for different applications in various areas.展开更多

The ZnO solubility was determined by employing the method of isothermal solution saturation. The results show that only ZnO solid exists in the equilibrium state in the low concentration alkali regions, and the solubility of zinc oxide is almost invariable with temperature. With the increase of alkali concentration, equilibrium solid turns from ZnO to NaZn（OH）3 suddenly, this mutation is called invariant point. The alkali concentration of the invariant points increases with increasing temperature, but the solubility of NaZn（OH）3 decreases with increasing alkali concentration at the same temperature. At the same Na2O concentration, the higher the temperature is, the higher the solubility of NaZn（OH）3 is.展开更多

In this work, magnetite was recovered from ferrous sulphate by a novel co-precipitation method with calcium hydroxide as the precipitant. Under optimum conditions, the obtained spherical magnetite particles are well crystallized with a Fe304 purity of 88.78%, but apt to aggregate with a median particle size of 1.83 μm. Magnetic measurement reveals the obtained Fe304 particles are soft magnetic with a saturation magnetization of 81.73 A-m2/kg. In addition, a highly crystallized gypsum co-product is obtained in blocky or irregular shape. Predictably, this study would provide additional opportunities for future application of low-cost Fe3O4 particles in water treatment field.展开更多

The prepared Mg/Al-CO_3 layered double hydroxide（LDH） and CLDH were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction（XRD） and thermo gravimetric analyzer-differential scanning calorimeters（TG-DSC）. Moreover, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol（TCP） was removed effectively（94.7% of removal percentage in 9h） under the optimized experimental conditions. The adsorption kinetics data fitted the pseudosecond-order model well. The Freundlich, Langmuir, and Tempkin adsorption models were applied to the experimental equilibrium adsorption data at different temperatures of solution. The adsorption data fitted the Freundlieh adsorption isotherm with good values of the correlation coefficient. A mechanism of the adsorption process is proposed according to the intraparticle diffusion model, which indicates that the overall rate of adsorption can be described as three steps.展开更多

The effects of α-Al2O3 seeds and mixture composed of α-Al2O3 and ammonium nitrate, as well as multiplex catalysts （AT） on phase transformation of alumina in sintering process were investigated respectively. The results show that the α-Al2O3 seeds and the mixture of α-Al2O3 and ammonium nitrate can lower the phase transformation temperature of α-Al2O3 to different extents while the particles obtained agglomerate heavily. AT has great potential synergistic effects on the phase transformation of alumina and reduces the phase transformation temperature of α-Al2O3 and the trends of necking-formation between particles. Therefore the dispersion of powder particles is improved significantly.展开更多
