Hydrogen desorption kinetics mechanism of Mg-Ni hydride under isothermal and non-isothermal conditions

The Mg-Ni hydride was prepared by hydriding combustion synthesis under a high magnetic field. The dehydriding kinetics of the hydrides was measured under the isothermal and non-isothermal conditions. A model was applied to analyzing the kinetics behavior of Mg-Ni hydride. The calculation results show that the theoretical value and the experimental data can reach a good agreement, especially in the case of non-isothermal dehydriding. The rate-controlling step is the diffusion of hydrogen atoms in the solid solution. The sample prepared under magnetic field of 6 T under the isothermal condition can reach the best performance. The similar tendency was observed under the non-isothermal condition and the reason was discussed.

Electrical Characteristics and Desorption Kinetics of Soil Boron

The status and activities of boron in soils were studied by the approach of electro-ultrafiltration (EUF). The samples of soils, including brown-red soil and calcareous alluvial soil, were collected from Hubei Province of China. The soil samples were incubated in saturated water and then their nutrients were ultrafiltrated with EUF equipment. Filtration and extraction were conducted in accordance with routine process, but fractions in anode and cathode were all collected. Analyses of B, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Cl- and pH in fractions supposed that boron existed not only in a simple form of borate but also in ion-pair with canons partly in acidic soil, and borate was the primary form existing in the calcareous soil. In studying desorption kinetics with EUF, the boron content of Fractions 2-6 was accumulated, and the accumulative quantities were fit to time factors in three kinetic equations: the zero-order, first-order, and parabolic diffusion equations. Fit degree of the parabolic diffusion equation was the best, followed by the zero-order equation, and the first-order equation was the worst.

Kinetic characteristics of coal gas desorption based on the pulsating injection

In order to understand the kinetic characteristics of coal gas desorption based on the pulsating injection （PI）, the research experimentally studied the kinetic process of methane desorption in terms of the PI and hydrostatic injection （HI）. The results show that the kinetic curves of methane desorption based on PI and HI are consistent with each other, and the diffusion model can best describe the characteristics of meth- ane desorption. Initial velocity, diffusion capacity and ultimate desorption amount of methane desorption after P! are greater than those after HI, and the ultimate desorption amount increases by 16.7-39.7%. Methane decay rate over the time is less than that of the HI. The PI influences the diffusion model param- eters, and it makes the mass transfer Biot number B＇_i decrease and the mass transfer Fourier series F＇_0 increase. As a result, PI makes the methane diffusion resistance in the coal smaller, methane diffusion rate greater, mass transfer velocity faster and the disturbance range of methane concentration wider than HI. Therefore, the effect of methane desorption based on PI is better than that of HI.

One-step controlled electrodeposition nickel sulfides heterointerfaces favoring the desorption of hydroxyl groups for efficient hydrogen generation

The heterointerface engineering involving different components or phases represents a desirable strategy for enhancing the sluggish kinetics of hydrogen evolution reaction(HER).However,constructing desired heterointerfaces and elucidating the reaction mechanisms on the interface remains a considerable challenge.In this work,we propose a straightforward electrochemical synthesis strategy to prepare the nickel sulfide-based heterointerfaces for HER.The mechanism of electrochemical synthesis is revealed,wherein metal-thiourea species can be formed at the cathode potential and subsequently oxidized to nickel sulfides at the anode potentials.Leveraging this mechanism,a range of nickel sulfides,including NiS,Ni_(3)S_(2)/NiS,Ni/Ni_(3)S_(2)and Ni_(3)S_(2),have been successfully synthesized by tuning the potential range of cyclic voltammetry.Among these,the obtained Ni_(3)S_(2)/NiS@CC(CC:carbon cloth)exhibits the smallest overpotential of84 mV at 10 mA·cm^(-2)and high stability.Theoretical calculations further reveal that the combination of NiS and Ni_(3)S_(2)induces electron redistribution at the interface,and thus the Volmer process is effectively promoted with faster water dissociation and OH desorption kinetics.Significantly,the simplicity method coupled with a clear synthesis mechanism and outstanding HER performance highlights its promising potential for practical applications.
