By comparing the dynamic data obtained from reaction simulation, it is showed that processing difficulty could rise with increasing condensed aromatic ring number, and hydrogenation could promote ring cleavage reaction, but excessive hydrogenation would decrease the oil conversion rate to reduce light-end products. In conclusion, proper hydrogenation was quite critical in promoting light-end products conversion efficiency and saving the processing cost as well. Operational instructions were given based on both PAHs hydrogenation performance and conclusions were drawn up from reaction simulation results.展开更多

The XRD testing reveals that the hydrides of HoCu_2 were a mixture of Cu, unknown hydride Ⅰ, and unknown hydride Ⅱ. Based on the PCT(pressure-concentration-temperature) curves under different reaction temperatures, the relationships among reaction temperature, equilibrium pressure, and maximum hydrogen absorption capacity were analyzed and discussed. The enthalpy change ΔH and entropy change ΔS as a result of the whole hydrogenation process were also calculated from the PCT curves. The magnetization and volumetric specific heat capacity of the hydride were also measured by SQUID magnetometer and PPMS, respectively.展开更多

It is, therefore, important to under- stand the underlying dehydrogenation mechanisms for further development of these ma- terials. We present a systematic theoretical investigation on the dehydrogenation mecha- nisms of the Mg2(BH4)2(NH2)2 compounds. We found that dehydrogenation takes place most likely via the intermolecular process, which is favorable both kinetically and thermo- dynamically in comparison with that of the intramolecular process. The dehydrogenation of Mg2(BH4)2(NH2)2 initially takes place via the direct combination of the hydridie H in BH4 and the protie H in NH2-, followed by the formation of Mg-H and subsequent ionic recombination of Mg-Hδ-…Hδ+-N.展开更多

Since ethane dehydrogenation is an equilibrium reaction,removal of produced hydrogen by the membrane shifts the thermodynamic equilibrium to ethylene production.For further displacement of the dehydrogenation reaction, oxidative dehydrogenation method has been used.Since ethane dehydrogenation is an endothermic reaction, the energy produced by the oxidative dehydrogenation method is consumed by the dehydrogenation reaction. The results show that the oxidative dehydrogenation method generated a substantial improvement in the reactor performance in terms of high conversions and signi ficant energy saving. It was also established that the sweep gas velocity in the shell side of the reactor is one of the most important factors in the effectiveness of the reactor.展开更多

Raw materials have been pyrolyzed under nitrogen in a 3.0 dm^3 autoclave. Results show considerable differences in yields and quality of products obtained by pyrolysis of wastes with different paper content. Light and heavy oils were mixtures of organic compounds containing valuable hydrocarbons and oxygenated chemicals, while chars were rather composed of inorganic compounds from the raw materials. Longer reaction time of pyrolysis had produced higher non-condensable gas, water and light oil. Gases contained CO, CO2 and hydrocarbons, but the concentrations were very function of reaction time and paper/plastic ratio. Light and heavy oils showed similarities with middle distillates and heavy oils in refinery, the high paper content of the raw materials was unfavourable for longer storage of waste derived oils.展开更多

This paper studies the influence of space velocity, temperature, hydrogen flow rate and pressure on conversion and selectivity experimentally. The byproducts are analyzed and classified into three types: hydrogenation product, cracking products and condensation products. Both the conversion and selectivity of this reaction have the same trend with the change of space velocity, temperature and hydrogen flow rate, and has the opposite trend with the change of pressure. As the space velocity increases, the conversion curve is a gradual decline parabola but the selectivity curve is close to a straight line. Hydrogen flow rate has a more obvious influence on conversion than temperature, whereas on selectivity the situation is opposite. High pressure increases the conversion of acetone to all products, but the increment of byproducts is more than that of isopropanol, so the selectivity decreases as pressure increases.展开更多
