有机质“接力成气”模式的提出及其在勘探中的意义

有机质“接力成气”机理是指成气过程中生气母质的转换和生气时机与贡献的接替。有两层含义:一是干酪根热降解成气在先,液态烃和煤岩中可溶有机质热裂解成气在后,二者在成气时机和先后贡献方面构成接力过程;二是干酪根热降解形成的液态烃只有一部分可排出烃源岩,形成油藏,相当多的部分则呈分散状仍滞留在烃源岩内,在高—过成熟阶段会发生热裂解,使烃源岩仍具有良好的生气潜力。这一理论的提出,回答了我国热演化高-过成熟地区勘探潜力问题与天然气晚期成藏的机理问题,对拓搌勘探领域有重要意义。

深层海相天然气成因与塔里木盆地古生界油裂解气资源

我国海相地层时代老,演化程度偏高,高过成熟干酪根热降解生气潜力有限。针对深层海相天然气成因,提出了有机质接力成气机理,具体包含3方面涵义,生气母质的转换、生气时机的接替和气源灶的变迁。源内分散液态烃型气源灶继承了原生气源灶的特征,而源外分散和聚集型液态烃气源灶与原生气源灶相比,则发生了空间上的迁移。上述三部分液态烃在高—过成熟阶段均可裂解成气,但后者通常埋藏较前者浅,裂解成气的时机晚于前者,有利于晚期成藏。通过不同有机质丰度、不同岩性烃源岩生排烃模拟实验研究,建立了不同有机质丰度烃源岩的排油率图版,为源内、源外分散液态烃分配比例和数量研究提供了依据;从3个方面,生烃潜力评价指标S1、热成因沥青和储层的荧光特征,论证了塔里木盆地古生界地层中分散可溶有机质的数量、分布、裂解程度,肯定了塔里木盆地古生界海相烃源岩有机质接力成气的现实性;并用正演研究思路计算了塔里木盆地中下寒武统分散可溶有机质裂解成气数量。有机质接力成气机理的应用大大提高了塔里木盆地台盆区古生界找气的潜力和希望。

Microscopic mechanism of perfluorocarbon gas formation in aluminum electrolysis process

In view of the unclear cause of perfluorocarbons(PFCs)emission in the anode effect stage of aluminum electrolysis,the microscopic formation mechanism of PFCs was studied by density functional theory calculation and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS).It is found that the discharge of fluorine containing anions([F]−)on carbon anode first causes the substitution of C—H by C—F and further results in the saturation of aromatic C—C bonds,leading to the appearance of—CF_(3)or—C_(2)F_(5)group through six-carbon-ring opening.Elimination of—CF_(3)and—C_(2)F_(5) with F atom could be a likely mechanism of CF_(4) and C_(2)F_(6) formation.XPS results confirm that different types of—CF_(x) group can be formed on anode surface during electrolysis,and the possibility that[F]−discharges continuously at the C edge and finally forms different C—F bonds in quantum mechanical calculation was verified.

Calculation model and mechanism analysis for rain-wind-induced vibration of stay cable

Rain-wind-induced vibration of cable was studied based on previous research achievements. According to the quasi-steady assumption, the governing equation of vertical motion of the cable was derived and the criterion for unstable motion and occurrence mechanism was studied. A comparison was performed between the oscillation responses of the stay cable obtained from calculated model and previous results. The results indicate that the analysis model can reflect the main characteristics of wind-rain-induced vibrationt of the cable which is amplitude- and velocity-restricted, and it is probably related with the periodic vortex shedding of wake flow. It is essential for the occurrence of rain-wind-induced or wind-induced vibration of cable that the derivative of lift coefficient with respect to transient angle of attack is less than zero. When rain-wind-induced vibration occurs, the aerodynamic force has a dual function for the vibration, and the maximum amplitude of stayed-cable is determined by the relative value of aerodynamic exciting force and aerodynamic damping force.

Detailed kinetics of methylphenyldichlorosilane synthesis from methyldichlorosilane and chlorobenzene by gas phase condensation

Methylphenyldichlorosilane(MPDS, CH3C6H5 SiC l2) is an important silicone monomer for the synthesis of highperformance polymethylphenylsiloxane polymers. In this work, the mechanism of the synthesis of MPDS from methyldichlorosilane and chlorobenzene by gas phase condensation was studied, and a kinetic model with 35 species and 58 elementary reactions was established. Experiments were carried out in a tubular reactor under a wide range of reaction conditions. The calculated mole fractions of the reactants and products were in a good agreement with the experimental results. A mechanism of the insertion of chloromethylsilylene into the C\Cl bond of chlorobenzene was proposed, which was proved to be the main pathway of MPDS production. The established kinetic model can be used in design and optimization of the industrial reactor for MPDS synthesis.

Role and Mechanism of Functional Components in Promoters for Enhancing FCC Propylene Yield

Phosphorus （P） and metal （M） components were incorporated into promoters for enhancing FCC propylene yield, and the reactive behavior of promoters, before and after modification, were investigated. The results showed that both LPG and propylene yields were increased, and propylene selectivity was improved after the incorporation of P or M into the matrix, resulting in an increased C3 to C4 ratio in LPG during FCC process. But the sole incorporation of M into the matrix also led to an increase in coke and H2 yields on the other hand. Simultaneous modification of the matrix by P and M components resulted in more enhancement in propylene yield and selectivity along with little influence on FCC product distribution. Physico-chemical characterizations and model compound reactions were used to assist in analyzing the mechanism for improving propylene selectivity. Two types of active centers could strengthen the oligomerization of C4 olefins in LPG and these oligomers could be further cracked into C3 olefins on ZSM-5 zeolite, therefore maximizing the ratio of C3 to C4 in liquefied petroleum gas obtained during FCC process.

Physical characteristics of high-rank coal reservoirs in different coal-body structures and the mechanism of coalbed methane production

The physical characteristics of coal reservoirs are important for evaluating the potential for gas desorption, diffusion, and seepage during coalbed methane （CBM） production, and influence the performance of CBM wells. Based on data from mercury injection experiments, low-temperature liquid nitrogen adsorption, isothermal adsorption, initial velocity tests of methane diffusion, and gas natural desorption data from a CBM field, herein the physical characteristics of reservoirs of high-rank coals with different coal-body structures are described, including porosity, adsorption/desorption, diffusion, and seepage. Geometric models are constructed for these reservoirs. The modes of diffusion are discussed and a comprehensive diffusion-seepage model is constructed. The following conclusions were obtained. First, the pore distribution of tectonically deformed coal is different from that of normal coal. Compared to normal coal, all types of pore, including micropores （〈10 nm）, transitional pores （10-100 nm）, mesopores （100-1000 nm）, and macropores （〉1000 nm）, are more abundant in tectonically deformed coal, especially mesopores and macropores. The increase in pore abundance is greater with increasing tectonic deformation of coal; in addition, the pore connectivity is altered. These are the key factors causing differences in other reservoir physical characteristics, such as adsorption/desorption and diffusion in coals with different coal-body structures. Second, normal and cataclastic coals mainly contain micropores. The lack of macropores and its bad connectivity limit gas desorption and diffusion during the early stage of CBM production. However, the good connectivity of micropores is favorable for gas desorption and diffusion in later gas production stage. Thus, because of the slow decline in the rate of gas desorption, long-term gas production can easily be obtained from these reservoirs. Third, under natural conditions the adsorption/desorption properties of granulated and mylonitized coal are good, and the diffusion ability is also enhanced. However, for in situ reservoir conditions, the high dependence of reservoir permeability on stress results in a weak seepage of gas; thus, desorption and diffusion is limited. Fourth, during gas production, the pore range in which transitional diffusion takes place always increases, but that for Fick diffusion decreases. This is a reason for the reduction in diffusion capacity, in which micropores and transitional pores are the primary factors limiting gas diffusion. Finally, the proposed comprehensive model of CBM production under in situ reservoir conditions elucidates the key factors limiting gas production, which is helpful for selection of reservoir stimulation methods.
