Influence of preparation methods on the physicochemical properties and catalytic performance of MnO_x-CeO_2 catalysts for NH_3-SCR at low temperature

This work examines the influence of preparation methods on the physicochemical properties and catalytic performance of MnOx‐CeO2 catalysts for selective catalytic reduction of NO by NH3 (NH3‐SCR) at low temperature. Five different methods, namely, mechanical mixing, impregnation,hydrothermal treatment, co‐precipitation, and a sol‐gel technique, were used to synthesizeMnOx‐CeO2 catalysts. The catalysts were characterized in detail, and an NH3‐SCR model reaction waschosen to evaluate the catalytic performance. The results showed that the preparation methodsaffected the catalytic performance in the order: hydrothermal treatment > sol‐gel > co‐precipitation> impregnation > mechanical mixing. This order correlated with the surface Ce3+ and Mn4+ content,oxygen vacancies and surface adsorbed oxygen species concentration, and the amount of acidic sitesand acidic strength. This trend is related to redox interactions between MnOx and CeO2. The catalystformed by a hydrothermal treatment exhibited excellent physicochemical properties, optimal catalyticperformance, and good H2O resistance in NH3‐SCR reaction. This was attributed to incorporationof Mnn+ into the CeO2 lattice to form a uniform ceria‐based solid solution (containing Mn‐O‐Cestructures). Strengthening of the electronic interactions between MnOx and CeO2, driven by thehigh‐temperature and high‐pressure conditions during the hydrothermal treatment also improved the catalyst characteristics. Thus, the hydrothermal treatment method is an efficient and environment‐friendly route to synthesizing low‐temperature denitrification (deNOx) catalysts.

Low Temperature Chlorination of Nd₂O₃by Mechanochemical Method with CCl₄

For a chlorinating method at low temperature, the possibility of chlorination of Nd2O3 by a mechanochemical reaction with CCl4 was studied using a planetary ball mill. The mechanochemical experiments were conducted by changing the pot materials, milling time, molar ratio of CCl4/Nd2O3, and revolution speed. As the results of obtained products by X-ray diffractometry and Raman spectroscopy, it was confirmed that the chlorination to NdOCl from Nd2O3 with CCl4 was advanced at room temperature in a zirconia or tungsten pot with balls. We found that an extension of the milling time and an increase of the number of ball were effective to the chlorination to NdOCl and that tensile stress remained in the milled powder by using a planetary ball mill.

Preparation of YAG:Ce^(3+) phosphor by sol-gel low temperature combustion method and its luminescent properties

YAG:Ce3+ phosphor was prepared by sol-gel low-temperature combustion method. The effects of the precursor properties and calcining temperature on the crystallization process, microscopic morphology and luminescent properties of phosphor were studied. The results indicate that the pure phase of YAG can be obtained at 800 ℃ by sol-gel low temperature combustion method, using citric acid as complexing agent. When the molar ratio of metal ion to citric acid is 2.0 and pH value is 2, the crystallinity increases and the phosphor particle size grows up gradually with the increase of the calcining temperature. The powders were characterized through thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscope analysis. The excitation spectra of YAG:Ce3+ phosphor take on a double peak structure, and the peak value of the main excitation spectra occurs at 460 nm and that of the emission spectra is near 530 nm. With the gradual increase of the calcining temperature, the peak position of excitation and emission spectra remains basically unchanged, but its relative intensity increases gradually.

Study on Free Surface and Channel Flow Induced by Low Temperature Plasma via Lattice Boltzmann Method

Active boundary layer flow control and boundary layer manipulation in the channel flow that was based on low temperature plasma were studied by means of a lattice Boltzmann method. Two plasma actuators were placed in a row to obtain the influence rule of their separation distance on the velocity profile at three locations and maximum velocity in the flow field. Two plasma actuators were placed symmetrically inside a channel to examine the effect of channel height and voltage on the velocity profile and flow rate. It was found that the channel height controls the distribution of flow velocity, which affected the flow rate and its direction. Increasing plasma voltage had a negative effect on the flow rate due to the generation of a larger and stronger flow vortex.

A Novel Low Temperature Synthesis of KNN Nanoparticles by Facile Wet Chemical Method

Sodium potassium niobate (KNN) (K0.5Na0.5NbO3) nanopowder with a mean particle size of about 20 - 30 nm was synthesized by wet chemical route using Nb2O5 as Nb source. A solution of K, Na and Nb cations was prepared, which resulted in a clear gel after the thermal treatment. Phase analysis, microstructure and morphology of the powder were determined by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM). The obtained gel was first analyzed by Thermo Gravimetric Analyzer (TGA) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), and then calcined at different temperatures of 400℃, 500℃, 600℃ and 700℃. The X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) patterns of the synthesized samples confirmed the formation of the orthorhombic crystal phase of K0.5Na0.5NbO3 at 500?C, a temperature significantly lower than that typically used in the conventional mixed oxide route. The process developed in this work is convenient to realize the mass production of KNN nanopowders at low cost and suitable for various industrial applications.

Low Temperature Synthesis of Nano Porous 12CaO?7Al_2O_3 Powder by Hydrothermal Method

Single-phase insulating 12CaO？7Al_2O_3（C12A7） powder was synthesized using an optimized hydrothermal method. Pure phase of C12A7 was got at a comparatively lower temperature（c.a. 300 ℃） than that has been previously reported. The crystallite size of the synthesized C12A7 powder was 7±2 nm. The surface area values calculated for all the samples at a synthesis temperature range of 250-800 ℃ for 5 h were in the range of about 19-24 m^2/g, with pore sizes of 12-20 nm. This low-temperature-based synthetic strategy along with nano porous structures and a high surface area value can facilitate catalyst application.

Using XRD,TEM and VSM methods,the phase,morphology and magnetic property of iron hydroxide oxide(FeOOH) which has been prepared by low-temperature neutralization reaction under different magnetic fields were analyzed.It can be found that the magnetic field had a great influence on the product.Acicular goethite(α-FeOOH) was synthetized without magnetic field.When the magnetic flux density was increased to 0.1T,γ-FeOOH was obtained.If the magnetic field intensity was raised to 0.5T,the product was all composed of δ-FeOOH.Moreover,the crystallization of FeOOH was greatly influenced by magnetic field as well.Thermodynamic calculation results show that the magnetic free energy of chemical reaction reached to more than hundreds KJ/mol when the magnetic field is applied.It meaned that the application of magnetic field was conducived to producing the products with higher susceptibility.Even under the low magnetic field,due to the stability of the reaction products was broken by the magnetic field,the magnetic free energy was also effective.

An efficient block variant of robust structured multifrontal factorization method

Based on the two-dimensional three-temperature （2D3T） radiation diffusion equations and its discrete system, using the block diagonal structure of the three-temperature matrix, the reordering and symbolic decomposition parts of the RSMF method are replaced with corresponding block operation in order to improve the solution efficiency. We call this block form method block RSMF （in brief, BRSMF） method. The new BRSMF method not only makes the reordering and symbolic decomposition become more effective, but also keeps the cost of numerical factorization from increasing and ensures the precision of solution very well. The theoretical analysis of the computation complexity about the new BRSMF method shows that the solution efficiency about the BRSMF method is higher than the original RSMF method. The numerical experiments also show that the new BRSMF method is more effective than the original RSMF method.
