In this study, a hybrid model based on oxygen balance mechanism (OBM) and deep neural network (DNN) was established for predicting oxygen blowing time in converter. A three-step method was utilized in the hybrid model. First, the oxygen consumption volume was predicted by the OBM model and DNN model, respectively. Second, a more accurate oxygen consumption volume was obtained by integrating the OBM model and DNN model. Finally, the converter oxygen blowing time was calculated according to the oxygen consumption volume and the oxygen supply intensity of each heat. The proposed hybrid model was verified using the actual data collected from an integrated steel plant in China, and compared with multiple linear regression model, OBM model, and neural network model including extreme learning machine, back propagation neural network, and DNN. The test results indicate that the hybrid model with a network structure of 3 hidden layer layers, 32-16-8 neurons per hidden layer, and 0.1 learning rate has the best prediction accuracy and stronger generalization ability compared with other models. The predicted hit ratio of oxygen consumption volume within the error±300 m^(3)is 96.67%;determination coefficient (R^(2)) and root mean square error (RMSE) are0.6984 and 150.03 m^(3), respectively. The oxygen blow time prediction hit ratio within the error±0.6 min is 89.50%;R2and RMSE are0.9486 and 0.3592 min, respectively. As a result, the proposed model can effectively predict the oxygen consumption volume and oxygen blowing time in the converter.展开更多

The biomass and NPP were respectively 2875150t and 1058122 t/a. They were respectively 392495t and 64948 t/a in the built-up area and 2482655t and 993147 t/a in the unbuilt-up area. It would make plant biomass, especially NPP decline obviously, if the unbuilt-up area were changed to the built-up area. The carbon content of plant was 1328649 for the total and 13.78 t/hm 2 for the mean, and amounts of carbon fixed and oxygen made by urban vegetation were respectively 4.80 t/(hm 2·a) and 12.79 t/(hm 2·a) for the mean and 462624 t/a and 1232430 t/a for the total, which were equal to 1.45 times and 1.04 times of those by human breathing. However, they were only equal to 7.61% and 4.97% of amount of carbon released and oxygen consumption in urban Guangzhou. The biomass and NPP of urban vegetation in Guangzhou only corresponded to 7.8% and 47.3% of those of southern subtropical evergreen broad-leaf forest in Dinghu Mountain. Therefore, the roles of Guangzhou urban vegetation in balance of carbon and oxygen would be increased greatly if it could be conserved and improved in some way.展开更多

The purpose was to highlight the role of vegetation in urban ecosystems and evaluate the effects of various human activities on urban annual oxygen consumption and carbon emission. Hopefully,the model would be helpful in theory to keep the regional balance of carbon and oxygen,and provide guidance and support for urban vegetation planning in the future. To test the UCOB model,the Jimei District of Xiamen City,Fujian Province,China,a very typical urban region,was selected as a case study. The results turn out that Jimei′s vegetation service in oxygen emission and carbon sequestration could not meet the demand of the urban population,and more than 31.49 times of vegetation area should be added to meet the whole oxygen consumption in Jimei while 9.60 times of vegetation area are needed to meet the carbon sequestration targets. The results show that the new UCOB model is of a great potential to be applied to quantitative planning of urban vegetation and regional eco-compensation mechanisms.展开更多

In group Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ, end-tidal pressure of Co2(PETCO2) were maintained at 3. 5, 4. 0 and 4. 5 kPa respectively. Radial arterial blood samples and jugular bulb blood samples weretaken synchronously at 60 min after hyperventilation to measure jugular venous oxygen saturation (SjvO2), cerebral extraction of oxygen (CEO2) and cerebral arteriovenous oxygen content difference (AVDO2) were calculatedResults: In group Ⅰ after hyperventilation, SjvO, and jugular venous oxygen content (CjvO2) were decreasedmarkedly while CEO2 was increased significantly, which was different significantly compared with the baseline andcorresponding value in group Ⅱ and Ⅲ (P<0. 05). After hyperventilation in group, and, SjvO2 CjvO2, CEO2and AVDO, remained unchanged. Conclusion: This study shows that sustained excessive hyperventilation (PETCO23.5 kPa) may account for the less favorable cerebral oxygen supply and consumption balance and maintained PETCO, at 4. 0~4. 5 kPa was optimal hyperventilation for brain surgery anesthesia.展开更多

[Method] Firstly, the release and absorption of CO2 and O2 in Shijiazhuang City during 2004 -2007 were studied by using carbon-oxygen balance method, and the ecological land area needed for carbon-oxygen balance was calculated, then the ecological land area needed for carbon-oxygen balance in 2015 was predicted. Finally, some measures to reduce the deficit of CO2 and O2 in Shijiazhuang were proposed. [Result] From 2004 to 2007, the unbalance between CO2 and O2 aggravated with the rapid development of Shijiazhuang City＇s economy, and the ecological land needed increased year by year. If the amount of CO2 released and 02 consumed grows constantly, the area of standard ecological land needed will be about doubled in 2015 compared with 2007 （ 1. 575 6 million hm2 ）, namely increasing to 3.566 million hm2. In addition, appropdately improving the area of mixed forest and other vegetation with higher net production, developing some green energy resources like nuclear energy and wind energy and controlling its population could be adopted to reduce the deficit of CO2 and 02 in Shijiazhuang City. ~ ConclusionJ The research could provide theoretical references for the overall plan of land utilization in Shijiazhuang City.

In the steady state the stable isotopic composition of nitrogenand oxygen in tropospheric N<sub>2</sub>O is balanced by isotopically light N<sub>2</sub>O emitted from soils and oceans andisotopically heavy N<sub>2</sub>O as return flux from the stratosphere. However, no such balance was reached incalculations given by Kim and Craig. This serious discrepancy lied in the fact that only soil and oceanic sources were considered in Kim and Craig’s calculation and N<sub>2</sub>O emission from tropical forest soil wastaken as the global soil contribution. Progress since the 1990s in identifying additional sources of atmospheric N<sub>2</sub>O as well as in the estimation from various types of soil allows us to make more realistic assessment of nitrogen and oxygen isotope balance budgets in tropospheric N<sub>2</sub>O. In this note, modification willbe proposed of atmospheric N<sub>2</sub>O nitrogen and oxygen isotope budgets to Kim and Craig’s calculation. The static balance of nitrogen and oxygen isotopes in tropospheric N<sub>2</sub>O is expressed展开更多
