On the basis of chemical and spectral evidence (IR, EI-MS, HREI-MS, H-1-NMR, C-13-NMR and HMQC), the structure of compound 1 was established to be 17-acetoxy-16alpha-ent-kauran-19-oic acid The other three known compounds were identified as ent-pimera-8(14) 15-dien-19-oic acid (2), 16alpha-hydroxy-( -)-kauran-19-oic acid (3) and 16alpha-17-dihydroxy-ent-kauran-19-oic acid (4). The three known diterpenoids were obtained from this plant for the first time.展开更多

They were identified as N-(4-hydroxy-2-methoxyphenyl) acetamide (1) and ergosta-7,22-diene-3,6-dione (2) respectively on the basis of spectral analyses and physical and chemical identifications. Compound 1 was a new natural product. Compound 2 was firstly isolated from its genus. Spectral data of 1 and complete 1H NMR data of 2 were reported for the first time.展开更多

The concentration of Cd was meas-ured by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry （ICP-AES） after digesting the samples including bottom ash, fly ash and flue gas according to related USEPA methods. The results show that S and Na2S tend to in- crease Cd partitioning in bottom ash, whereas Na2SO3 and Na2SO4 tend to reduce Cd partitioning in bottom ash. The effect of sulfur compounds on Cd partitioning in bottom ash was in the sequence of Na2S〉S〉Na2SO3〉 Na2SO4. chemical equilibrium analysis is also performed to determine the effect of sorbents on Cd adsorption. The calculations show that S presents strong affinity for Cd and restrains Cd adsorption by SiO2, whereas when temperature rises to between 830℃ and 1030℃, Cd adsorption efficiency of SiO2 is over 80% and the efficiency of Al2O3 is up to 85%.展开更多
New polyimide containing calix [4] arene moieties on the polymer backbone was successfully synthesized in N- methy1 - 2 - pyrrolidone （NMP） by polycondensations of 3, 3＇, 4, 4＇- oxydiphthalic anhydride （ODPA） wi...New polyimide containing calix [4] arene moieties on the polymer backbone was successfully synthesized in N- methy1 - 2 - pyrrolidone （NMP） by polycondensations of 3, 3＇, 4, 4＇- oxydiphthalic anhydride （ODPA） with the diaminocalix[4]arene monomer using 3,3＇- dimethy1- 4, 4＇- The polyimide prepared is soluble in common solvents, such as NMP, DMAc, DMF and chloroform. The polyimide films obtained have excellent thermal stability and mechanical property. At the same time, the liquid membrane transport of potassium ions by the new polyimide was investigated, which testified that compared to ODPA-DADPM polyimide, the polyimide containing culix[4] arenes has the transport ability to metal ions in regard to bulky, cone-like calix [-4] arene moieties.展开更多

To meet up all these criteria, we have developed a continuous outdoor micro-algal raceway pond reactor(RPR) and a lab scale indoor tubular photo bioreactor(PBR) for biofuel production. An attempt to utilise indigenous sources of nutrients to improve the economics also revealed that micro-algal culturing can also be used as a mode of nutrient removal and water treatment. The photosynthetic rate and lipid production were enhanced by arresting daytime cell division and promoting night-time cell division. A 50% lipid improvement was observed for the particular algal consortia. Microscopic studies revealed that temporal phase separation could be achieved by adjusting nutrient distribution pattern. To monitor temporal phase separation, it is required to know DNA multiplication model. Quantification of g DNA in RPR confirmed that cell division happens during the night which positively affects the photosynthetic efficiency and lipid productivity of microalgae.展开更多

In this work, the bioconversion of lig- nite was studied using a fungus isolated from decaying wood. The lignite samples were oxidized with nitric acid under moderate conditions and then the oxidized samples were placed on a potato medium with isolated fungus for lignite bioconversion. Lignite, oxidized lignite and residual products after bioconversion of lignite were sequentially extracted with petroleum ether, CS2, methanol, acetone and tetrahydrofuran （THt：）, and then each extract was characterized by gas chromatography-mass spectrom- etry （GC/MS）. The differences in composition and structure among the samples were inferred by compar- ing the differences between the extracts. The results show that aromatics with one or several benzene rings and their derivatives; and some long-chain alkanes containing oxygen decreased in the metha- nol-, acetone-, and THF-soluble fraction from residual lignite, whereas long chain or a few branched alkanes and small quantities of aromatic compounds increased in petroleum ether and CS2 soluble fractions.展开更多
