State-of-the-art catalysts for direct dehydrogenation of propane to propylene

With growing demand for propylene and increasing production of propane from shale gas,the technologies of propylene production,including direct dehydrogenation and oxidative dehydrogenation of propane,have drawn great attention in recent years.In particular,direct dehydrogenation of propane to propylene is regarded as one of the most promising methods of propylene production because it is an on-purpose technique that exclusively yields propylene instead of a mixture of products.In this critical review,we provide the current investigations on the heterogeneous catalysts(such as Pt,CrOx,VOx,GaOx-based catalysts,and nanocarbons)used in the direct dehydrogenation of propane to propylene.A detailed comparison and discussion of the active sites,catalytic mechanisms,influencing factors(such as the structures,dispersions,and reducibilities of the catalysts and promoters),and supports for different types of catalysts is presented.Furthermore,rational designs and preparation of high-performance catalysts for propane dehydrogenation are proposed and discussed.

Carbcations Chemistry： β-Methyl Shift--A New Rearrangement of the Carbcations Bridged Alicyclic Hydrocarbons

Results of researches on study of the kinetics and isomerization mechanism of the alkyladamantanes in the presence of the heterogeneous catalysts of the acid type are considered as detection and experimental proof of a new intramolecular rearrangement of the carbcations bridged alicyclic hydrocarbons--2,4-moving of the methyl groups （β-methyl shift）. The proof of realization of such rearrangement is direct and primary formation 1,4-dimethyladamantane from 1,2-dimethyladamatane, passing a formation stage of the thermodynamic much stable 1,3-dimethyladamantane; direct formation 1,3,6-trimethyladamantane from 1,3,4-trimethyladamantane, excepting a formation stage 1,3.5-trimethyladamantane, and also other isomers which formation is impossible to explain by means of known 1,2-methyl shift （a-methyl shift）.

Structural and interfacial engineering of well‐defined metal‐organic ensembles for electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction

Electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction(CO_(2)RR)has been generally regarded as green technologies that can convert renewable energy such as sunlight and wind into fuels and valuable chemicals.However,the large‐scale implementation of CO_(2)RR is severely hindered by the lack of high‐performance CO_(2)RR electrocatalysts.Heterogeneous molecular catalysts and metal‐organic framework with well‐defined structure and high tunability of the metal centers and ligands show great promise for CO_(2)RR in terms of both fundamental understanding and practical application.Here,structural and interfacial engineering of these well‐defined metal‐organic ensembles is summarized.This review starts from the fundamental electrochemistry of CO_(2)RR and its evaluation criteria,and then moves to the heterogeneous molecular catalysts and metal‐organic framework with emphasis on the engineering of metal centers and ligands,their interaction with supports,as well as in situ reconstruction of metal‐organic ensembles.Summary and outlook are present in the end,with the hope to inspire and provoke more genuine thinking on the design and fabrication of efficient CO_(2)RR electrocatalysts.

A mixed stochastic user equilibrium model considering influence of advanced traveller information systems in degradable transport network

Advanced traveler information systems （ATIS） can not only improve drivers＇ accessibility to the more accurate route travel time information, but also can improve drivers＇ adaptability to the stochastic network capacity degradations. In this paper, a mixed stochastic user equilibrium model was proposed to describe the interactive route choice behaviors between ATIS equipped and unequipped drivers on a degradable transport network. In the proposed model the information accessibility of equipped drivers was reflected by lower degree of uncertainty in their stochastic equilibrium flow distributions, and their behavioral adaptability was captured by multiple equilibrium behaviors over the stochastic network state set. The mixed equilibrium model was formulated as a fixed point problem defined in the mixed route flows, and its solution was achieved by executing an iterative algorithm. Numerical experiments were provided to verify the properties of the mixed network equilibrium model and the efficiency of the iterative algorithm.

Pilot study on combined process of catalytic ozonation and biological activated carbon for organic pollutants removal

A combined process of catalytic ozonation in the presence of a novel heterogeneous catalyst and biological activated carbon was investigated for the removal of priority control organic pollutants, the reduction of genotoxicity, and the improvement of biodegradable dissolved organic carbon (BDOC). Results confirm that the catalytic ozonation has higher effectiveness for the removal of refractory harmful organic pollutants, the reduction of genotoxicity and the increase of bio-degradability of organics than ozonation alone, which results in lower pollution load for subsequent biological activated carbon process, and then leads to less organic pollutants penetrating biological activated carbon. The novel catalytic ozonation with this combined process exhibits excellent performance to guarantee the safety of drinking water.

Recent progress in quantifying substituent effects

This paper summarizes significant progress in quantifying organic substituent effects in the last 20 years. The main content is as follows： （1） The principle of electronegativity equalization has gained wide acceptance, and has been used to calculate the intramolecular charge distribution and inductive effect of groups. A valence electrons equalization method was proposed to compute the molecular electronegativity on the basis of geometric mean method, harmonic mean method, and weighted mean method. This new calculation method further extended the application of the principle of electronegativity equalization. （2） A scale method was established for experimentally determining the electrophilic and nucleophilic ability of reagents, in which benzhydryliumions and quinone methides were taken as the reference compounds, and the research field was extended to the gas phase conditions, organometallic reaction and radicals system. Moreover, the nucleophilicity parameters N and electro- philicity parameters E for a series of reagents were obtained. The definition and quantitative expression of electrophilicity in- dex co and nucleophilicity index co were proposed theoretically, and the correlation between the parameters from experimental determination and the indexes from theoretical calculation was also investigated. （3） The polarizability effect parameter was initially calculated by empirical method and further developed by quantum chemistry method. Recently, the polarizability ef- fect index of alkyl （PEI） and groups （PEIx） were proposed by statistical method, and got wide applications in explaining and estimating gas-phase acidity and basicity, ionization energy, enthalpy of formation, bond energy, reaction rate, water solubility and chromatographic retention for organic compounds. （4） The excited-state substituent constant Crcc obtained directly from the UV absorption energy data of substituted benzenes, is different from the polar constants in molecular ground state and the radical spin-delocalization effects constants in molecular radical state. The proposed constant Crcc correlated well with the UV absorption energy of many kinds of organic compounds, such as 1,4-disubstituted benzenes, substituted stilbenes, and di- substituted N-benzylidenebenzenamine. （5） The establishment of the steric shielding effect distinguished the three traditional steric effects. The stereoselectivity index Ci was proposed to quantify the stereoselectivity of the addition reaction of carbonyl with nucleophilic reagent. The shielding parameter Rs was defined to quantitatively express the specific surface of the reac- tion center screened by a group. Further, the Topological Steric Effect Index （TSEI） of a group was proposed on the basis of the relative specific volume of reaction center screened by the atoms of substituents. These parameters can be applied in esti- mating the intramolecular dihedral angles, stereoselectivity of reaction, enthalpies of formation of alkenes and alkylbenzene, acidity of substitutedimidazolium ionic liquid, and the reaction rate of alkane and hydroxyl radical. In addition, some sugges- tions and prospects for further studies on quantifying the organic substituent effects were presented in this paper.

On necessary and sufficient conditions for the self-normalized central limit theorem In Honor of Professor Chuanrong Lu on His 85th Birthday

Let X_1, X_2,... be a sequence of independent random variables and S_n=sum X_1 from i=1 to n and V_n^2=sum X_1~2 from i=1 to n . When the elements of the sequence are i.i.d., it is known that the self-normalized sum S_n/V_n converges to a standard normal distribution if and only if max1≤i≤n|X_i|/V_n → 0 in probability and the mean of X_1 is zero. In this paper, sufficient conditions for the self-normalized central limit theorem are obtained for general independent random variables. It is also shown that if max1≤i≤n|X_i|/V_n → 0 in probability, then these sufficient conditions are necessary.

Optimization of the Mean Radius Flow Path of a Multi-Stage Steam Turbine with Evolution Algorithms

A prototype model of the mean radius flow path of a four-stage, high speed 1 MWe axial steam turbine was optimized by using evolution algorithms, DE （differential evolution） algorithm in this case. Also the cost-benefits of the optimization were inspected. The optimization was successfully performed but the accuracy of the optimization was slightly less than hoped when compared to the control modeling executed with the CFD （computational fluid dynamics）. The mentioned inaccuracy could have been hardly avoided because of problems with an initial presumption involving semi-empiric calculations and of the uncertainty concerning the absolute areas of qualification of the functions. This kind of algebraic modeling was essential for the success of the optimization because e.g. CFD-calculation could not have been done on each step of the optimization. During the optimization some problems occurred with the adequacy of the computer capacity and with finding a suitable solution that would keep the algorithms within mathematically allowable boundaries but would not restrict the progress of the opti- mization too much. The rest of the problems were due to the novelty of the application and problems with pre- ciseness when handling the areas of qualification of the functions. Although the accuracy of the optimization re- suits was not exactly in accordance with the objective, they did have a favorable effect on the designing of the turbine. The optimization executed with the help of the DE-algorithm got at least about 3.5 % more power out of the turbine which means about 150 000 ε cost-benefit per turbine in the form of additional electricity capacity.

Diyne-linked and fully π-conjugated polymetalloporphyrin nanosheets for outstanding heterogeneous catalysis

Two-dimensional,ultrathin,robust,and fullyπ-conjugated organic nanomaterials are highly desirable for application in various fields due to their unique photoelectric characteristics and great number of exposed active sites.However,such matters combining excellent stability,fullπ-conjugation and adjustability are rare,which has become a bottleneck for their practical application.Herein,we present a novel kind of diyne-linked polymetalloporphyrin nanosheet featuring permanent porosity and fullπ-conjugation,which exhibits a high-aspect-ratio,outstanding stability and convenient tailoring for electronic structures.Importantly,the novel nanosheets with monodisperse nickel atoms were found to be outstanding heterogeneous catalyst with unprecedented catalytic activity and selectivity for 4-nitrophenol reduction to 4-aminophenol under mild conditions.The findings recommend that diynelinked polymetalloporphyrin nanosheets may offer new platforms for the conversion of photoelectricity and energy in the future.

Contact stress non-uniformity of wafer surface for multi-zone chemical mechanical polishing process

A finite element analysis(FEA)model is developed for the chemical-mechanical polishing(CMP)process on the basis of a 12-in five-zone polishing head.The proposed FEA model shows that the contact stress non-uniformity is less dependent on the material property of the membrane and the geometry of the retaining ring.The larger the elastic modulus of the pad,the larger contact stress non-uniformity of the wafer.The applied loads on retaining ring and zone of the polishing head significantly affect the contact stress distribution.The stress adjustment ability of a zone depends on its position.In particular,the inner-side zone has a high stress adjustment ability,whereas the outer-side zone has a low stress adjustment ability.The predicted results by the model are shown to be consistent with the experimental data.Analysis results have revealed some insights regarding the performance of the multi-zone CMP.

Inter-zone constraint modifies the stress-strain response of the constituent layer in gradient structure

How an individual constituent zone behaves during the deformation of a heterostructured metallic material is a fundamental issue for understanding heterostructure deformation, but it remains a challenge to experimentally observe it. Here we report a study on the stress-strain behavior of the nanostructured gradient layer(NGL) in an integrated gradient specimen that consists of a coarse-grained(CG)central layer sandwiched between two NGLs. Constraint from the CG central layer led to the formation of dense and dispersed stable strain bands(SBs) in the NGL, which regained dislocation hardening after initial recovery and grain coarsening. Consequently, the NGL exhibited a transient plateau of flow stress after yielding, and then regained extra strain hardening to achieve excellent uniform elongation. These unique behaviors are dramatically different from those of a freestanding NGL, indicating a fundamentally different deformation principle that is intrinsic to heterostructures, i.e.,inter-zone constraint modifies the constitutive behavior of constituent zones.
