For a particular mass of Fe salt precursor, the concentration of the metal salt solution during ion exchange influenced the ion exchange capacity of Fe, and resulted in different activities of the Fe-Beta catalyst. Fe-Beta catalysts with the Fe contents of (2.6, 6.3 and 9) wt% were synthesized using different amounts of 0.02 mol/L Fe salt solution. These catalysts were studied by various characterization techniques and their NH3-SCR activities were evaluated. The Fe-Beta catalyst with the Fe content of 6.3 wt% exhibited the highest activity, with a temperature range of 202-616℃ where the NOx conversion was 〉 80%. The Fe content in Beta zeolite did not influence the structure of Beta zeolite and valence state of Fe. Compared with the Fe-Beta catalysts with low Fe content (2.6 wt%), Fe-Beta catalysts with 6.3 wt% Fe content possessed more isolated Fe3. active sites which led to its higher NH3-SCR activity. A high capacity for NH3 and NO adsorption, and a high activity for NO oxidation also contributed to the high NH3-SCR activity of the Fe-Beta catalyst with 6.3 wt%. However, when the Fe content was further increased to 9.0 wt%, the amount of FexOy nanoparticles increased while the amount of isolated Fe3+ active sites was unchanged, which promoted NH3 oxidation and decreased the NH3-SCR activity at high temperature.展开更多

The reaction conditions for rice AFLP assay were optimized. The relative efficiencies for polymorphism detection of RFLP, RAPD and AFLP were compared. The results indicated that the efficiency for polymorphism detection in rice was in the order of AFLP>RAPD>RFLP, and also indicated that AFLP was a powerful DNA molecular marker technique for polymorphism detection, especially in the case of extremely low polymorphism, such as isogenic lines and allelic mutant lines. Some of the AFLP products between the TGMS rice allelic mutant lines were cloned. Three of them were used as mixed probes to screen BAC library of rice line 5460S. 12 positive clones were screened out. In addition, the advantages and disadvantages of these three molecular marker systems were discussed.展开更多
