Study on Commercial Application of FP-DSN Sulfur Transfer Additive in FCC Unit

The FCC unit with addition of various inventories of the FP-DSN type sulfur transfer additive was tested in a commercial scale. The effect of the sulfur transfer additive was analyzed by investigating the indicators related with the regenerator flue gas composition,the dry gas composition before desulfurization,the LPG composition before desulfurization,the acid gas,and the yield of gasoline and diesel. The test results indicated that the sulfur was trans ferred from the feed stream into the dry gas,LPG and acid gas,and the sulfur transfer effect was obvious only when the inventory of sulfur transfer additive exceeded over 2.0% of total FCC catalyst inventory.

Effects of sulfur addition methods and Ca-Si treatment on the microstructure and properties of 30MnVS

The effects of sulfur addition methods and Ca-Si treatment on the microstructure and properties of free-cutting non-quenched and tempered steel 30MnVS were investigated by using optical microscopy, SEM and tensile test methods. The results show that sulfur addition methods influence the morphology of sulfides and the properties of 30MnVS slightly. Ca-Si treatment is beneficial for the formation of complex sulfides which normally have oxide cores, therefore, improving the distribution of sulfides in the tested steel and enhancing its toughness. The two methods, pyrite addition during LF process and S wire feeding during VD process, slightly influence the morphology and distribution of sulfides and the properties of 30MnVS; Ca addition not only promotes the nucleation of sulfides on the cores of calcium aluminate inclusions, but also creates modification effect on MnS, reducing the relative plasticity and hot deformability of sulfides during hot rolling process, thereby reducing the length/width value of sulfides and improving their distribution, and significantly enhancing its mechanical properties, in particular, the impact toughness increased by 30%.

Influence of sulfur addition/solids content ratio on removal of heavy metals from mine tailings by bioleaching

The effect of sulfur addition/solids content(SA/SC)ratio on heavy metals(e.g.copper,zinc and lead)obtained from mine tailings by indigenous sulfur-oxidizing bacteria was studied,and the changes in the chemical forms of heavy metals after bioleaching were explored.The results show that the solubilization of metals is significantly influenced by SA/SC ratio,and SA/SC ratio of 2.50 is found to be the best for bacterial activity and metal solubilization among six SA/SC ratios tested(such as 1.00,1.33,1.50,1.67,2.00 and 2.50)under the chosen experimental conditions.The pH decreases fast and the maximum solubilizations of copper and zinc are respectively 81.76% and 84.35% while that of lead only reaches 40.36%.After bioleaching,the chemical forms of heavy metals have changed.The metals remained in mine tailings are mainly found in residual fractions,which is harmless to the surrounding environment.

Synthesis of N-type semiconductor diamonds with sulfur,boron co-doping in FeNiMnCo-C system at high pressure and high temperature

A series of diamonds with boron and sulfur co-doping were synthesized in the Fe Ni Mn Co-C system by temperature gradient growth（TGG） under high pressure and high temperature（HPHT）. Because of differences in additives, the resulting diamond crystals were colorless, blue-black, or yellow. Their morphologies were slab, tower, or minaret-like. Analysis of the x-ray photoelectron spectra（XPS） of these diamonds shows the presence of B, S, and N in samples from which N was not eliminated. But only the B dopant was assuredly incorporated in the samples from which N was eliminated. Resistivity and Hall mobility were 8.510 Ω·cm and 760.870 cm^2/V·s, respectively, for a P-type diamond sample from which nitrogen was eliminated. Correspondingly, resistivity and Hall mobility were 4.211×10^5 Ω·cm and 76.300 cmΩ2/V·s for an N-type diamond sample from which nitrogen was not eliminated. Large N-type diamonds of type Ib with B–S doping were acquired.

Large single crystal diamond grown in FeNiMnCo-S-C system under high pressure and high temperature conditions

Large diamonds have successfully been synthesized from FeNiMnCo-S-C system at temperatures of 1255-1393 ℃and pressures of 5.3-5.5 GPa.Because of the presence of sulfur additive,the morphology and color of the large diamond crystals change obviously.The content and shape of inclusions change with increasing sulfur additive.It is found that the pressure and temperature conditions required for the synthesis decrease to some extent with the increase of S additive,which results in left down of the V-shape region.The Raman spectra show that the introduction of additive sulfur reduces the quality of the large diamond crystals.The x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy（XPS） spectra show the presence of S in the diamonds.Furthermore,the electrical properties of the large diamond crystals are tested by a four-point probe and the Hall effect method.When sulfur in the cell of diamond is up to 4.0 wt.%,the resistance of the diamond is 9.628×105 Ω·cm.It is shown that the large single crystal samples are n type semiconductors.This work is helpful for the further research and application of sulfur-doped semiconductor large diamond.
