The order of the amounts of methane emitted was P. crus-galli > O. sativa >C. difformis, with the former two 11 and 8 times as much as that of the latter, respectively. And it was just opposite tothat of the methane-forming activities of roots of the three plants. The diurnal changes of methane emission of thethree plants were relatively consistent with valleys during 11:00-14:00 and midnight and peaks during 8:00-11: 00,14:00- 20:00 and about 5:00 early morning. The methanogenic activites in rhizospheric soils were higher than those innonrhizospheric soils with P. crus-galli and O. sativa, but not with C. difformis. The pathways of methane release ofP. crus-galli and O . sativa were probably through the top gaps near the junctions of nodal plate and leaf sheath, how-ever in C. difformistopgaps from which methane could escape into atmosphere were not found.展开更多

Via atmospheric methanation in a laboratory fluidized bed reactor it was clarified that the CO conversion varied in 5% when changing the space velocity in 40–120 L·g-1·h-1but the conversion increased obviously by raising the superficial gas velocity from 4 to12.4 cm·s-1. The temperature at 823 K is suitable for syngas methanation while obvious deposition of uneasyoxidizing Cγoccurs on the catalyst at temperatures around 873 K. From a kinetic aspect, the lowest reaction temperature is suggested to be 750 K when the space velocity is 60 L·g-1·h-1. Raising the H2/CO ratio of the syngas increased proportionally the CO conversion and CH4 selectivity, showing that at enough high H2/CO ratios the active sites on the catalyst are sufficient for CO adsorption and in turn the reaction with H2 for forming CH4.Introducing CO2 into the syngas feed suppresses the water gas shift and Boudouard reactions and thus increased H2 consumption. The ratio of CO2/CO in syngas should be better below 0.52 because varying the ratio from 0.52 to0.92 resulted in negligible increases in the H2 conversion and CH4 selectivity but decreased the CH4 yield.Introducing steam into the feed gas affected little the CO conversion but decreased the selectivity to CH4. The tested Ni–Mg/Al2O3 catalyst manifested good stability in structure and activity even in syngas containing water vapor.展开更多

After measurement of the moisture permeability, adsorption quantity and mechanical properties of the membrane made with the elastic body, we also proofed its formula by infrared spectroscopy. The result showed that the moisture permeability of the membrane, with a certain intelligent thermotropic quality, will increase by 3 to 4 times when the temperature is between 25℃-45℃.展开更多

Based on the surface free energy, the extended Langmuir isothermal adsorption model, combined with CO2 replacing CH4 in experimental trials, and calling on the more general principles and characteristics of the field, mathematical models describing the coal matrix as it undergoes different processes such as CO2 injection and desorption were established. Combined with laboratory data about CO2 replacement under different methane saturation conditions, a law governing the variations in coal matrix CO2 replacement under different methane gas saturation conditions was obtained. The results showed that： in the injection process, the coal matrix expansion rate caused by CO2 or CH4 was exponentially increased with the CO2 pressure increase, the expansion caused by CO2 was far greater than the expansion caused by CH4 in the desorption process, the coal matrix shrinkage caused by CO2 or CH4 was exponentially increased with the pressure decrease, the shrinkage caused by CO2 was larger than the shrinkage caused by CH4 under the same pressure and different gas saturation, the total shrinkage in the desorption process in the coal matrix was greater than the total expansion in the injection process. At higher gas saturations, the total coal matrix shrinkage volume exceeded the total expansion corresponding to pressure points higher in the desorption process.展开更多

Flame and pressure transducers were used to track the explosion front velocity. The flame speed (Sf) showed a slight downward trend while the methane concentration varied from 10% to 3% in the experimental channel. The peak overpressure (Pmax) dropped dramatically when compared with normal conditions. As well, the values of Pmax and Sf decreased when the methane concentration dropped from 8% to 6%. The flame speed in the channel, connected to a cylinder with a length varying from 0.5 to 2 m, was greater than that in the normal channel. The peak overpressure was also higher than that under normal conditions because of a higher flame speed and stronger pressure piling up. The values of Pmax and Sf increased with an increase in cylinder length. The research results indicate that damage caused by explosions can be reduced by decreasing the gas concentration, which should be immediately detected in roadways with large cross-sections because of the possibility of greater destruction caused by more serious explosions.展开更多
