Its performance is compared with the conventional air Brayton cycle under five typical engine conditions. The results show that CO2 Brayton cycle proves to be superior to the air Brayton cycle in terms of the system net output power, thermal efficiency and recovery efficiency. In most cases, the recovery efficiency of CO2 Brayton cycle can be higher than 9% and the system has a better performance at the engine's high operating load, The thermal efficiency can be as large as 24.83% under 100% olaerating load, accordingly, the net outnut nower of 14.86 kW in nhtnined展开更多

The diameter of the microspheres is about 100—150 nm, and the average mesopore diameter is 2.55 nm, while the specific surface area is 1 088.9 m2/g. Mesoporous SiO_2 microspheres adsorb glutaraldehyde and immobilize laccase by means of the aldehyde group in glutaral which can react with the amidogen of laccase. The immobilization conditions were optimized at a glutaraldehyde concentration of 0.75%, a crosslinking time of 8 h, a laccase concentration of 0.04 L/L and an immobilization time of 10 h. When diesel leakage concentration was 80 mg/L, the highest corrosion inhibition efficiency of immobilized laccase reached 49.23%, which was slightly lower than the corrosion inhibition efficiency of free laccase(59%). The diesel degradation ratio could reach up to 45%. It has been proved that the immobilized laccase could degrade diesel to inhibit corrosion.展开更多

METHODS 12 AHF patients induced by resection of HCC were treated with MARS before orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Their vital signs, urine volume, APACHElll and Glasgow scores were monitored. Routine laboratory blood tests, measurements of coagulatory function, liver and kidney function, serum ammonia, lactic acid and blood gas were conducted before and after treatment with MARS. All of the patients were followed up for a period of 6 months after OLT for prognosis and complication assessment. RESULTS Each patient was treated with MARS for 2-5 times (average of 3.6) with a length of 8-24 h each time. Their mean arterial blood pressure and urine volume were improved, APACHE III and Glasgow scores were better. Liver function was improved with the following alterations before and after treatment with MARS: serum ammonia (127.1±21.4 umol/L vs. 77.4±19.7 umol/L, P〈0.05), lactic acid (6.53±0.45 mmol/L vs. 3.75± 0.40 mmol/L, P〈0.05) and total bilirubin (452.3±153.7 umol/L vs. 230.9± 115.2 umol/L, P〈0.05). However, there was no significant change in platelet count (44.25±3.60×10^9/L vs. 43.19±8.26×10^9/L, P〉0.05) on international normalized ratio (INR) (2.74±0.50 vs. 2.82±0.60, P〉0.05), which showed the safety of MARS. For all patients no serious adverse effects occurred during the treatment with MARS. CONCLUSION MARS is effective and safe for treatment of AHF patients with HCC, especially as a bridge to OLT when a donor organ is not available.展开更多

The results of study had shown that at a SiO_2/Al_2O_3 ratio in thefeed equating to 9∶1 the SiO_2 recovery rate and Al_2O_3 utilization rate were high with a fasterflow velocity of the filtrate. The pH value of the system had great impact on the flow velocity offiltrate. Between the two methods for regulating the pH value, the one for formation ofsilica/alumina gel slurry by addition of sulfuric acid prior to adding aluminium sulfate in thesolution could secure a faster filtration velocity. The filtration velocity was decreased in tandemwith increasing SiO_2 concentration in mother liquor, meanwhile an increase in dry filter cakeyield.展开更多

Fish (initial body weight of 1677 g+ 157 g) were fed with four commercial feeds (Nosan salmon-NS, Aller gold-AG, Skretting salmon-SS and Hart ye-HY) in two feeding regimes (80% and 100% satiation) for 78 d. The results showed that salmon specific growth ratio (SGR) and weight gain ratio (WGR) were significantly affected by feed type and feeding regime (P〈0.05). Feed conversion ratio (FCR) varied between 0.93 and 3.40, which was significantly affected by feed type (P〈0.05), and slightly improved with increased satiation degree. The activities of digestive enzymes including protease, lipase and amylase were also significantly affected by feed type and feeding regime (P〈0.05), increasing with satiation degree. Flesh qualities for vitamin E, hydroxyproline (HYP), liquid loss and muscle pH among all groups showed significant differences (P〈0.05), ranging from 26.67 to 29.67, while no obvious difference was found in flesh color. Fecal viscosity for different treatments showed no significant difference, though improvement was found in 100% satiation group. From present experiment, it was concluded that both feed type and feeding regime can affect the important quality attributes of Atlantic salmon.展开更多

It is of great interest to investigate the efficiency improvement of GTCC plant. A combined cycle with three-pressure reheat heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) is selected for study in this paper. In order to maximize the GTCC efficiency, the optimization of the HRSG operating parameters is performed. The operating parameters are determined by means of a thermodynamic analysis, i.e. the minimization of exergy losses. The influence of HRSG inlet gas temperature on the steam bottoming cycle efficiency is discussed. The result shows that increasing the HRSG inlet temperature has less improvement to steam cycle efficiency when it is over 590℃. Partial gas to gas recuperation in the topping cycle is studied. Joining HRSG optimization with the use of gas to gas heat recuperation, the combined plant efficiency can rise up to 59.05% at base load. In addition, the part load performance of the GTCC power plant gets much better. The efficiency is increased by 2.11% at 75% load and by 4.17% at 50% load.展开更多
