Behavior and mechanism of pre-oxidation improvement on fluidization in the fluidized reduction of titanomagnetite

The direct reduction process is an important development direction of low-carbon ironmaking and efficient comprehensive utilization of poly-metallic iron ore,such as titanomagnetite.However,the defluidization of reduced iron particles with a high metallization degree at a high temperature will seriously affect the operation of fluidized bed reduction.Coupling the pre-oxidation enhancing reduction and the particle surface modification of titanomagnetite,the behavior and mechanism of pre-oxidation improvement on fluidization in the fluidized bed reduction of titanomagnetite are systematically studied in this paper.Pre-oxidation treatment of titanomagnetite can significantly lower the critical stable reduction fluidization gas velocity to 0.17 m/s,which is reduced by 56%compared to that of titanomagnetite reduction without pre-oxidation,while achieving a metallization degree of>90%,Corresponding to the different reduction fluidization behaviors,three pre-oxidation operation regions have been divided,taking oxidation degrees of 26%and 86%as the boundaries.Focusing on the particle surface morphology evolution in the pre-oxidation-reduction process,the relationship between the surface morphology of pre-oxidized ore and the reduced iron with fluidization properties is built.The improving method of pre-oxidation on the reduction fluidization provides a novel approach to prevent defluidization by particle surface modification,especially for the fluidized bed reduction of poly-metallic iron ore.

Four-to Six-Year Periodic Variation of Arctic Sea-Ice Extent and Its Three Main Driving Factors

Besides the rapid retreating trend of Arctic sea-ice extent(SIE),this study found the most outstanding low-frequency variation of SIE to be a 4-6-year periodic variation.Using a clustering analysis algorithm,the SIE in most ice-covered regions was clustered into two special regions:Region-1 around the Barents Sea and Region-2 around the Canadian Basin,which were located on either side of the Arctic Transpolar Drift.Clear 4-6-year periodic variation in these two regions was identified using a novel method called“running linear fitting algorithm”.The rate of temporal variation of the Arctic SIE was related to three driving factors:the regional air temperature,the sea-ice areal flux across the Arctic Transpolar Drift,and the divergence of sea-ice drift.The 4-6-year periodic variation was found to have always been present since 1979,but the SIE responded to different factors under heavy and light ice conditions divided by the year 2005.The joint contribution of the three factors to SIE variation exceeded 83%and 59%in the two regions,respectively,remarkably reflecting their dynamic mechanism.It is proven that the process of El Niño-Southern Oscillation(ENSO)is closely associated with the three factors,being the fundamental source of the 4-6-year periodic variations of Arctic SIE.

Changes in snow cover extent in the Central Taurus Mountains from 1981 to 2021 in relation to temperature, precipitation, and atmospheric teleconnections

The snow cover over the Taurus Mountains affects water supply, agriculture, and hydropower generation in the region. In this study, we analyzed the monthly Snow Cover Extent(SCE) from November to April in the Central Taurus Mountains(Bolkar, Aladaglar, Tahtali and Binboga Mountains) from 1981 to 2021. Linear trends of snow cover season(November to April) over the last 41 years showed decreases in SCE primarily at lower elevations. The downward trend in SCE was found to be more pronounced and statistically significant for only November and March. SCE in the Central Taurus Mountains has declined about-6.3% per decade for 2500-3000 m in November and about-6.0% per decade for 1000-1500 m and 3000+ m in March over the last 41 years. The loss of SCE has become evident since the 2000s, and the lowest negative anomalies in SCE have been observed in 2014, 2001, and 2007 in the last 41 years, which are consistent with an increase in air temperature and decreased precipitation. SCE was correlated with both mean temperature and precipitation, with temperature having a greater relative importance at all elevated gradients. Results showed that there is a strong linear relationship between SCE and the mean air temperature(r =-0.80) and precipitation(r = 0.44) for all elevated gradients during the snow season. The Arctic Oscillation(AO), the North Atlantic Oscillation(NAO), and the Mediterranean Oscillation(MO) winter indices were used to explain the year-to-year variability in SCE over the Central Taurus Mountains. The results showed that the inter-annual variability observed in the winter SCE on the Central Taurus Mountains was positively correlated with the phases of the winter AO, NAO and MO, especially below 2000 m elevation.

Prediction of pre-oxidation efficiency of refractory gold concentrate by ozone in ferric sulfate solution using artificial neural networks

An artificial neural network model was developed to predict the oxidation of refractory gold concentrate （RGC） by ozone and ferric ions. The concentration of ozone and ferric ions, pulp density, oxygen amount, leaching time and temperature were employed as inputs to the network; the output of the network was the percentage of the ferric extraction iron from RGC. The multilayered feed-forward networks were trained by 33 sets of input-output patterns using a back propagation algorithm; a three-layer network with 8 neurons in the hidden layer gave optimal results. The model gave good predictions of high correlation coefficient （R2=0.966）. The predictions by ANN are more accurate when compared with conventional multivariate regression analysis （MVRA）. In addition, calculation with ANN model indicates that temperature is the predominant parameter and ozone concentration is the lesser influential parameter in the pre-oxidation process of refractory gold ore. The ANN neural network model accurately estimates the ferric extraction during pretreatment process of RGC in gold smelter plants and can be used to optimize the process parameters.

Effects of vacuum pre-oxidation process on thermally-grown oxides layer of CoCrAlY high temperature corrosion resistance coating

The influence of the certain specific vacuum pre-oxidation process on the phase transformation of thermally-grown oxides（TGO） was studied.The CoCrAlY high temperature corrosion resistance coatings were produced onto the nickel-based superalloy substrate by high velocity oxygen fuel（HVOF）.It suggests that the TGO usually consists of a great number of chromium oxides,cobalt oxides and spinel oxides besides alumina during the initial period of the high temperature oxidation if the specimens are not subjected to the appropriate vacuum pre-oxidation process.Furthermore,the amount of alumina is strongly dependent on the partial pressure of oxygen;while the CoCr2O4 spinel oxides are usually formed under the conditions of higher partial pressure of oxygen during the initial period and the lower partial pressure of oxygen during the subsequent period of the isothermal oxidation.After the appropriate vacuum pre-oxidation process,the TGO is mainly composed of alumina that contains lower Y element,while alumina that contains higher Y element sporadically distributes,and the spinel oxides cannot be found.After a longer period of the isothermal oxidation,a small amount of porous CoCr2O4 and the chrome oxide sporadically distribute near the continuous alumina.Additionally,after the appropriate vacuum pre-oxidation process,the TGO growth rate is relatively slow.

Effects of Pre-oxidation Conditions on Adsorption Performance of Activated Carbon Fibers

In order to investigate the effects of pre-oxidation conditions on adsorption performance of activated carbon fibers （ ACFs ）, electrospun polyacrylonitrile （ PAN ） fiber webs were adopted as precursors for preparing ACFs. Firstly, the webs were stabilized under different pre-oxidation conditions; secondly, the pre-oxidative fibers were chemically activated by high temperature treatment in nitrogen. Pre-oxidation temperature, heating rate, and treatment time are the main factors on affecting the adsorption performance of the ACFs. Scanning electron microscope （ SEM）, differential scanning calorimeter （DSC）, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FTIR） were used to characterize the structure and property of the pre-oxldatlve fibers, and the dynamic benzene adsorption capacity of benzene of ACFs was measured. The results indicate that the moderate pre-oxidation condition is necessary to prepare the ACFs with better adsorption capacity, and the optimal oxidation conditions are to increase from room temperature to 230 ~C with a heating rate of 0.75 ~C ~ min -1 held at the peak temperature for 30min.

Sulfidization regulation of cuprite by pre-oxidation using sodium hypochlorite as an oxidant

The direct sulfidization of cuprite is inefficient because cuprite is a copper-oxide mineral with a strong surface hydrophilicity.In this study,oxidant was used to modify cuprite surfaces to regulate the sulfidization of cuprite.Microflotation tests showed that the flotation recovery of pre-oxidized cuprite was nearly25% higher than that of direct sulfidization flotation,which indicates that the cuprite surface activity was enhanced after pre-oxidation by Cu(Ⅰ) species(weak affinity with sulfur ions) transformation to Cu(Ⅱ)species(strong affinity with sulfur ions).Zeta potential,scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry results showed that pre-oxidation improved cuprite sulfidization and promoted the formation of copper-sulfide species on the cuprite surfaces.The mineral surface stability and thus,xanthate species adsorption on the cuprite surfaces were improved.The surface-adsorption measurements and infrared spectroscopy showed that a large amount of xanthate species was adsorbed onto the sulfidized cuprite surfaces after pre-oxidation,which enhanced the cuprite hydrophobicity and improved the cuprite flotation.

Complete stabilization of severely As-contaminated soil by a simple H2O2 pre-oxidation method combined with non-toxic TMT-15 and FeCl3·6H2O

The stabilization of severely As-polluted soil has been a challenge, especially for the extremely toxic As(Ⅲ) contaminants. In this study, soil with a high As concentration(26084 mg/kg) was availably stabilized by a H2O2 pre-oxidation assisted TMT-15(Na3S3C3N3 solution with a mass fraction of 15%) and FeCl3·6 H2O stabilization method. The results showed that the combination of the two stabilizers(i.e., TMT-15 and FeCl3·6 H2O) presented a better stabilization behavior than either stabilizer used individually. The use of the H2O2 pre-oxidation assisted TMT-15 and FeCl3·6 H2O stabilization approach not only converted the As(Ⅲ) to As(Ⅴ) but also reduced the toxic leaching concentration of As to 1.61 mg/L, which is a safe level, when the additions of TMT-15 and FeCl3·6 H2O were 2 mL and 0.20 g, respectively. Thus, using only a simple H2O2 pre-oxidation to combine clean stabilization with non-toxic stabilizers TMT-15 and FeCl3·6 H2O could render the severely As-contaminated soil safe for disposal in a landfill.

Reduction and subsequent carburization of pre-oxidation magnetite pellets

Magnetite is a kind of iron ore that is difficult to carburize.In order to improve the carburizing performance of magnetite pellet,pre-oxidation treatment was carried out,and the oxidation,reduction and carburization behaviors of magnetite pellet were investigated in this study.The magnetite pellet was oxidized in the air and carburized in CO-CO_(2)-H_(2) gas mixtures,the oxidation,reduction and carburization behaviors were demonstrated by detecting phase change,microstructure,carburizing index via thermogravimetry,X-ray diffraction(XRD),infrared carbon-sulfur analyzer,and scanning electron microscope(SEM).The results show that the dense magnetite particles inside pellet are oxidized to porous hematite particles,and the Fe_(3)O_(4) transforms to Fe_(2)O_(3) with high lattice defect concentration during the pre-oxidation process.Then the porous hematite particles and newly formed Fe_(2)O_(3) significantly promote the reduction efficiency.Porous metallic iron particles are produced in the reduction process.Finally,both high reduction efficiency and the porous structure of metallic iron particles dramatically enhance the carburization efficiency of pellet.High preoxidation temperature favors to the carburization of magnetite pellet.However,the carburized index decreases due to the recrystallization of iron oxide when the temperature extends to 1000℃.The optimum pre-oxidation temperature for magnetite pellet carburization is 900℃.

Study on contrast test of PPC pre-oxidation and coagulation for algae removal and deodorization

The effect of treating algae-bearing water and induced odor by use of permanganate potassium composite （PPC） pre-oxidation was investigated, and was compared with the effect of treatments by pre-chlorination, permanganate petassium pre-oxidation and simple coagulation. The results showed that simple coagulation and pre-chlorination were less effective in removing algae and its odor, whereas PPC pre-oxidation was the most effective in algae removal and deodorization. Upon oxidation with PPC, the cells of Oscillatoria agardhic were inactivated and some intra-cellular and extra-cellular components were released into the water, which may help the coagulation by their bridging effect. The efficient removal of algae by PPC pre-oxidation is believed to be the joint contribution of several mechanisms.

Effect of chloride ion on bacterial pre-oxidation of arsenic-containing gold concentrate

The bacterial pre-oxidation process of arsenic-containing gold concentrates and the bacterial activity under different chloride ion concentrations were studied by using a mixture of thermophilic strains TCJ domesticated in production.The experimental result shows that with different samples and leaching systems,the adaptability and Cl- tolerance of bacteria are different,and that appropriate chloride ion concentration is conductive to bacterial oxidation,while higher chloride ion concentration will inhibit the bacterial activity and affect the pre-oxidation performance.Under the present production conditions,TCJ can adapt to the changes of water quality in the source of water and its critical chloride ion tolerance value is 2.7 g/L.

Effect of pre-oxidation on strength and thermal shock behavior of ZrB_2-SiC-graphite ceramic composites

A novelty technique,namely,pre-oxidation,has been proposed to improve the strength and thermal shock behavior of ZrB2-SiC-graphite ceramic composites,which is a promising candidate for ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTCs) in aerospace engineering. The composite is pre-oxidized at temperatures of 900 ℃ and 1100 ℃ for 1 h and 3 h in air. A theoretical model considering surface heat transfer has been given and analyzed. A water-quenching technique is adopted at different temperatures from 300 ℃ to 600 ℃ in order to investigate the thermal shock behavior of pre-oxidized composites. The critical thermal shock temperature improves more than 40% after pre-oxidizing at 1100 ℃ for 3 h. However,the composites strength is not improved as a result of the insensitivity to surface defects.

The Application of KMnO_4 Pre-oxidation in Emergency Treatment of High-algae Source Water

Mobile emergency pilot water plant was used to carry out pilot study of KMnO4 pre-oxidation enhanced coagulation treating high-algae source water. Research showed that the optimal dosages of coagulant and KMnO4 in the process were 6 and 0. 4- 0. 6 mg / L respectively. Under the dosage,removal rate of water turbidity after precipitation rose by 11% than simple coagulation,and removal rate of algae rose by 15%. Removal rates of total amount of odor and GSM by the process were respectively 73% and 59%. The removal rate of total amount of algae by KMnO4 preoxidation was 40%,and removal effect of THM precursors was obvious.

在实际爆破工程中,药包因自身重量与炮孔处于偏心不耦合的相对位置。此装药结构下,爆破荷载对其炮孔近区的岩体作用分布不均匀,会造成炮孔近区爆炸能量及损伤演化分布的差异。利用数值模拟软件,分别采用HJC模型和RHT模型建立岩石单孔爆破结构,探究了不同本构模型下偏心不耦合装药岩体的爆炸损伤特性。结果表明,基于本文的模拟环境,同心不耦合装药条件下,炮孔周围损伤程度基本相同,但RHT模型下的损伤范围比HJC模型大近一倍;随着偏心系数的增大,HJC模型损伤范围偏向于炮孔耦合侧,RHT模型炮孔耦合侧与非耦合侧爆破损伤范围分布不均;RHT模型能更准确地呈现实际爆破工程中岩体裂纹的扩展形态。

脑后动脉梗死患者局部缺血性病变程度预测视野缺损改善的临床价值

目的 研究大脑后动脉(PCA)梗死患者局部缺血性病变程度(rEIL)预测视野缺损(VFD)改善的临床价值。方法 2020年9月—2023年7月,前瞻性纳入PCA缺血性梗死引起的半侧VFD患者38例,上象限VFD 35例,下象限VFD 29例。利用弥散加权成像计算视觉皮层rEIL。将随访3个月时视野评分(VFS)改善20%定义为VFD显著改善。利用Spearman相关性和Logistic回归模型评估预测半侧VFD或上/下象限VFD改善的相关因素。受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线分析对组合不同的变量亚组进行多变量分类测试。结果 22例(57.89%)半侧VFD显著改善,上象限VFD和下象限VFD显著改善率分别为40.00%和44.83%。经Spearman分析,舌回和距状回rIEL(%)与半侧/上象限/下象限ΔVFS均呈负相关,另外楔状回rIEL(%)与半侧ΔVFS也呈负相关(P<0.05)。经单因素和多因素Logistic回归分析,舌回和距状回rEIL(%)可能是半侧VFD或上象限VFD改善较差的独立预测因素(P<0.05)。ROC结果显示,临床变量(年龄+入院时NIHSS+基线VFS+梗死体积)联合舌回和距状回rEIL可提高VFD改善结局的预测效能,曲线下面积由0.767(95%CI:0.618~0.916)增加至0.963(95%CI:0.891~1.000)。结论 基于单独皮层的rEIL可相对准确地预测VFD的改善。将舌回和距状回rEIL数据补充到临床变量中可以提高PCA梗死后VFD预测模型的效能。

论侵权法中“故意”适用的理论基础及完善路径

在侵权法完全赔偿原则的影响下,关于故意的研究主要包含在过错问题中,涉及过错程度的研究较少。尤其在第三人侵害债权、纯粹经济利益损失等问题上,“故意”是否为要件仍存在不确定性。在责任范围上,“故意”在何种程度上影响责任范围,也存在不确定性。侵权法关注行为人的道德可责性,故意正属于这一趋势的环节之一;且动态系统论等新理论对民法典的影响,需要梳理、分析故意在侵权法中的影响与作用。通过对英美法系和大陆法系关于故意对侵权损害赔偿责任认定和责任范围影响的情形的比较与分析,结合中国目前关于故意的相关法律规定和司法实践,探究故意在中国民法典话语体系下适用的路径。

北京地区12所二级以上医院助产士对分娩镇痛认知及支持度的调查研究

目的了解助产士对分娩镇痛相关知识的认知及支持度现状,为今后加强产妇宣教,促进工作实施提供数据支撑和方向。方法采用横断面调查方法,于2021年10~12月以微信推送问卷星链接的方法,对北京地区12所二级以上医院助产士发放分娩镇痛认知及支持度调查问卷。调查内容涉及人员结构、知识认知及工作支持等三类10个问题。结果共计回收127份有效问卷。受访者广泛分布于北京地区三级和二级公立及民营医疗机构。78.7%的受访者从事助产工作5年以上,且拥有护师以上职称。80.3%的受访者认为椎管内神经阻滞技术是效果最为切实可靠的分娩镇痛方法。助产士对采用椎管内神经阻滞技术行分娩镇痛主要疑虑集中在:影响产程(70.9%)、助产人员短缺(37.8%)、增加工作量(36.2%)。助产士最为担心麻醉药对产妇和/或胎儿呼吸的影响(75.6%)。尽管96.0%的助产士对椎管内神经阻滞分娩镇痛持支持态度,且有97.6%受访者希望达到更高比例,但仍有24.4%医疗机构,近3个月分娩镇痛比例不足40.0%。结论椎管内神经阻滞分娩镇痛效果确切且普遍为助产士接受。助产士对分娩镇痛的认知层面仍存有较多顾虑,加之人力不足可能一定程度限制了此项工作的推进,未来应加强宣教,扩充人力以促进工作更好开展。
