溶胶-凝胶一釜法Al_2O_3-C杂化气凝胶的合成和表征（英文）

用Al(NO_3)_3·9H_2O作为Al_2O_3源,间苯二酚-糠醛为碳源,环氧丙烷为凝胶促进剂,通过溶胶-凝胶方法一釜合成了湿凝胶,并经超临界正己烷干燥和碳化制备了Al_2O_3-C杂化气凝胶。研究了Al_2O_3含量、间苯二酚-糠醛浓度和环氧丙烷/铝摩尔比对所合成的杂化气凝胶孔隙性质的影响。结果表明,此杂化气凝胶均为中孔结构,其平均孔径小于20 nm,Al_2O_3属于γ-型结构但X射线衍射峰很宽。杂化气凝胶在Al_2O_3含量小于5.31 wt%和间苯二酚-糠醛浓度为10 g/mL时可形成整体块状。在其他条件相同的情况下,中孔孔容、BET比表面、外表面积和中孔孔径随环氧丙烷/铝摩尔比增加而增大。制备过程中凝胶的体积收缩率和炭化收率随Al_2O_3含量增加而增大,但密度随Al_2O_3含量增加在4.93 wt%处达到最大。中孔孔容和孔径以及外表面积在环氧丙烷/铝摩尔比为5和6时随间苯二酚-糠醛浓度增加而减小,而在环氧丙烷/铝摩尔比为4时随间苯二酚-糠醛浓度增加而增大。

A comprehensive review of carbon sequestration of seagrass in China from 2013

Seagrass is not only known for its ecological role,but also for its high capacity on the carbon sequestration.Although the area of seagrass meadows was less than 0.2%of the world’s oceans,the yearly organic carbon burial of seagrass reached 10%of that in the ocean.Anthropogenic activities in the past two decades and the climate change have led to a significant decrease of seagrass meadow.Since seagrass is widely distributed along the coastline of China,it is necessary to put more efforts on the seagrass conservation and restoration,which will consequently be a suitable nature based solution for mitigating the climate change.This paper provides a comprehensive review on the following five aspects:1)the seagrass distribution in China;2)the role that seagrass plays in the climate mitigation;3)carbon sequestration of seagrass in China;4)loss of seagrass habitats and 5)the restoration of seagrass habitat in China since 2013.Current research gap and prospective research direction were also pointed out in this study.

碱金属离子改性对纳米HZSM-5沸石丁烯裂解催化性能的影响

利用NH3-TPD表征和小型固定床反应评价研究了不同碱金属离子浸渍改性对纳米HZSM-5沸石的酸度及混合碳四液化气中丁烯催化裂解性能的影响。结果表明,尽管锂、钠、钾改性在达到最佳乙烯和丙烯选择性时对应的负载量不同,但其最佳乙烯和丙烯选择性为50%～60%。碱金属离子改性催化剂在连续运转过程中其催化活性缓慢下降,但乙烯和丙烯选择性没有明显增加。丁烯异构体在催化剂上转化率由大到小的顺序为:丁烯1->反丁烯-2>顺丁烯2->异丁烯。

碳四液化气在离子浸渍改性纳米HZSM-5沸石上的转化反应研究

在小型常压固定床反应器中研究了不同离子浸渍改性对纳米ZSM-5固体酸催化剂上丁烷和丁烯转化的影响.结果表明,混和碳四中异丁烷比正丁烷易转化,丁烯异构体的转化与其在原料中的含量有关.在贫烯烃原料中,丁烯倾向于生成.在富丁烯原料中,丁烯倾向于转化.但在两种情况下,产物中各丁烯含量大体上按异丁烯、顺反-丁烯-2和丁烯-1顺序递减.采用锌离子改性时异丁烷转化率提高、正丁烷转化率降低.锌离子改性有利于芳烃选择性,但是副产物甲烷和乙烷的产率也较高;铁离子改性对丁烷和丁烯的转化影响不大,但能减少甲烷和乙烷的生成,并提高芳烃选择性;与锌改性相比,锌钠双离子改性降低了异丁烷、正丁烷和丁烯-1的转化率,减少了芳烃产率,但能明显促进丙烯和丁烯的生成.上述结果为碳四液化气综合利用提供了有益信息.

In-situ homogeneous synthesis of carbon nanotubes on aluminum matrix and properties of their composites

Using nickel catalyst supported on aluminum powders, carbon nanotubes （CNTs） were successfully synthesized in aluminum powders by in-situ chemical vapor deposition at 650 ℃. Structural characterization revealed that the as-grown CNTs possessed higher graphitization degree and straight graphite shell. By this approach, more homogeneous dispersion of CNTs in aluminum powders was achieved compared with the traditional mechanical mixture methods. Using the in-situ synthesized CNTs/Al composite powders and powder metallurgy process, CNTs/Al bulk composites were prepared. Performance testing showed that the mechanical properties and dimensional stability of the composites were improved obviously, which was attributed to the superior dispersion of CNTs in aluminum matrix and the strong interfacial bonding between CNTs and matrix.

Modification of ACFs by chemical vapor deposition and its application for removal of methyl orange from aqueous solution

Viscose activated carbon fibers （ACFs） were characterized using specific surface area, scanning electron modified with chemical vapor deposition （CVD）. The samples were microscopy （SEM）, pore size distribution and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FTIR）. Batch adsorption experiments were carried out to investigate the adsorption behavior of modified ACFs for methyl orange（MO） from its aqueous solutions. The results show that the adsorption isotherms of MO onto modified ACFs well follows the Langmuir isotherm equation. The adsorption kinetics of MO can be well described by the pseudo second-order kinetic model. The adsorption process involves the intra-particle diffusion, but is not the only rate-controlling step. Thermodynamic parameters including AG, AH and AS were calculated, suggesting that the adsorption of MO onto modified ACFs is a spontaneous, exothermic and physisorption process. FTIR result indicates that the major adsorption mechanism of modified ACFs for MO is hydrogen bond.

Oxidation of Carbon Supports at Fuel Cell Cathodes： Differential Electrochemical Mass Spectrometric Study

The effects of O2 and the supported Pt nano-particles on the mechanisms and kinetics of the carbon support corrosion are investigated by monitoring the CO2 production using differential electrochemical mass spectrometry in a dual-thin layer flow cell. Carbon can be oxidized in different distinct potential regimes; O2 accelerates carbon oxidation, the rates of CO2 production from carbon oxidation in O2 saturated solution are two times of that in N2 saturated solution at the same potential; Pt can catalyze the carbon oxidation, with supported Pt nanoparticles, the overpotential for carbon oxidation is much smaller than that without loading in the carbon electrode. The mechanism for the enhanced carbon oxidation by Pt and O2 are discussed.

Response of seedlings of different tree species to elevated CO_2 in Changbai Mountain

Eco-physiological responses of seedlings of eight species, Pinus koraiensis, Picea koraiensis, Larix olgensis, Populus ussuriensis, Betula platyphylla, Tilia amurensis, Traxinus mandshurica and Acer mono from broadleaved/Korean pine forest, to elevated CO2 were studied by using open-top chambers under natural sunlight in Changbai Mountain, China in two growing seasons (1998-1999). Two concentrations of CO2 were designed: elevated CO2 (700 祄olmol-1) and ambient CO2 (400 祄olmol-1). The study results showed that the height growth of the tree seedlings grown at elevated CO2 increased by about 10%-40% compared to those grown at ambient CO2. And the water using efficiency of seedlings also followed the same tendency. However, the responses of seedlings in transpiration and chlorophyll content to elevated CO2 varied with tree species. The broad-leaf tree species were more sensitive to the elevated CO2 than conifer tree species. All seedlings showed a photosynthetic acclimation to long-term elevated CO2.

Three Stage Equilibrium Model for Coal Gasification in Entrained Flow Gasifiers Based on Aspen Plus

A three stage equilibrium model is developed for coal gasification in the Texaco type coal gasifiersbased on Aspen Plus to calculate the composition of product gas, carbon conversion, and gasification teml^erature. The model is divided into three stages including pyrolysis and combustion stage, char gas reaction stage, and gas p.hase reaction stage. Part of the water produced in thepyrolysis and combust!on stag.e is assumed to be involved inthe second stage to react with the unburned carbon. Carbon conversion is then estimated in the second stage by steam participation ratio expressed as a function of temperature. And the gas product compositions are calculated from gas phase reactions in the third stage. The simulation results are consistent with published experimental data.

Hepatic injury induced by carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum in experimental rats

AIM： To observe the hepatic injury induced by carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum in rats and to explore its potential mechanism.METHODS： Thirty healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into control group （n = 10）, 0 h experimental group （n = 10） and 1 h experimental group （n = 10） after sham operation with carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum. Histological changes in liver tissue were observed with hematoxylineosin staining. Liver function was assayed with an automatic biochemical analyzer. Concentration of malonyldialdehyde （MDA） and activity of superoxide dismutase （SOD） were assayed by colorimetry. Activity of adenine nucleotide translocator in liver tissue was detected with the atractyloside-inhibitor stop technique. Expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1 （HIF-1） mRNA in liver tissue was detected with in situ hybridization.RESULTS： Carbon dioxide 60 min could induce liver pneumoperitoneum for injury in rats. Alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase were 95.7 ± 7.8 U/L and 86.8 ± 6.9 U/L in 0 h experimental group, and 101.4 ± 9.3 U/L and 106.6 ±8.7 U/L in 1 h experimental group. However, no significant difference was found in total billirubin, albumin, and pre-albumin in the three groups. In 0 h experimental group, the concentration of MDA was 9.83 ±2.53 μmol/g in liver homogenate and 7.64 ± 2.19 μmol/g in serum respectively, the activity of SOD was 67.58±9.75 nu/mg in liver and 64.47 ± 10.23 nu/mg in serum respectively. In 1 h experimental group, the concentration of MDA was 16.57±3.45 μmol/g in liver tissue and 12.49 ±4.21 μmol/g in serum respectively, the activity of SOD was 54.29 ±7.96 nu/mg in liver tissue and 56.31 ±9.85 nu/mg in serum respectively. The activity of ANT in liver tissue was 9.52 ± 1.56 in control group, 6.37± 1.33 in 0 h experimental group and 7.2 8±1.45 （10^-9 mol/min per gram protein） in 1 h experimental group, respectively. The expression of HIF-1 mRNA in liver tissue was not detected in control group, and its optical density difference value was 6.14±1.03 in 0 h experimental group and 9.51 ± 1.74 in 1 h experimental group, respectively. CONCLUSION： Carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum during the sham operation can induce hepatic injury in rats. The probable mechanisms of liver injury include anoxia, ischemia reperfusion and oxidative stress. Liver injury should be avoided during clinical laparoscopic operation with carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum.

Effect of decomposition of catalyst precursor on Ni/CeO_2 activity for CO methanation

CO methanation on Ni/CeO2 has recently received increasing attention.However,the low-temperature activity and carbon resistance of Ni/CeO2 still need to be improved.In this study,plasma decomposition of nickel nitrate was performed at ca.150℃ and atmospheric pressure.This was followed by hydrogen reduction at 500 ℃ in the absence of plasma,and a highly dispersed Ni/CeO2 catalyst was obtained with improved CO adsorption and enhanced metal-support interaction.The plasma-decomposed catalyst showed significantly improved low-temperature activity with high methane selectivity(up to 100%)and enhanced carbon resistance for CO methanation.For example,at 250 ℃,the plasma-decomposed catalyst showed a CO conversion of 96.8% with high methane selectivity(almost 100%),whereas the CO conversion was only 14.7% for a thermally decomposed catalyst.

Regeneration of catalysts deactivated by coke deposition:A review

In industrial catalytic processes,coke deposition can cause catalyst deactivation by covering acid sites and/or blocking pores.The regeneration of deactivated catalysts,thereby removing the coke and simultaneously restoring the catalytic activity,is highly desired.Despite various chemical reactions and methods are available to remove coke,developing reliable,efficient,and economic regeneration methods for catalytic processes still remains a challenge in industrial practice.In this paper,the current progress of regeneration methods such as oxidation(air,ozone and oxynitride),gasification(carbon dioxide and water steam),and hydrogenation(hydrogen)is reviewed,which hopefully can shed some light on the design and optimization of catalysts and the related processes.

Influence of CO_2 pneumoperitoneum on intracellular pH and signal transduction in cancer cells

Object: The authors studied the influence of CO2 pneumoperitoneum on intracellular pH and signal transduction arising from cancer cell multiplication in laparoscopic tumor operation. Method: They set up a simulation of pneumoperitoneum under different CO2 pressure, and then measured the variation of intracellular pH (pHi) at different time and the activity of protein kinase C (PKC) and protein phosphatase 2a (PP2a) at the end of the pneumoperitoneum. After 1 week, the concentration of cancer cells in the culture medium was calculated. Result: When the pressure of CO2 pneumoperitoneum was 0, 10, 20, 30 mmHg respectively, the average pHi was 7.273, 7.075, 6.783, 6.693 at the end of the pneumoperitoneum; PKC activity was 159.4, 168.5,178.0, 181.6 nmol/(g.min) and PP2a was 4158.3, 4066.9, 3984.0, 3878.5 nmol/(g.min) respectively. After 1 week, the cancer cells concentration was 2.15×105, 2.03×105, 2.20×105, 2.18×105 L-1. Conclusion: CO2 pneumoperitoneum could promote acidosis in cancer cells, inducing the activation of protein kinase C and deactivation of protein phosphatase 2a, but it could not accelerate the mitosis rate of the cancer cells.

Higher CO_2-insufflation pressure inhibits the expression of adhesion molecules and the invasion potential of colon cancer cells

AIM： To investigate the influence of CO2-insufflation pressure on adhesion, invasion and metastatic potential of colon cancer cells based on adhesion molecules expression. METHODS： With an/n vitro artificial pneumoperitoneum model, SW1116 human colon carcinoma cells were exposed to CO2-insufflation in 5 different pressure groups： 6 mmHg, 9 mmHg, 12 mmHg, 15 mmHg and control group, respectively for 1 h. Expression of E-cadherin, ICAM-I, CD44 and E-selectin was meas- ured at 0, 12, 24, 48 and 72 h after CO2-insufflation using flow cytometry. The adhesion and invasion capacity of SW1116 cells before and after exposure to CO2-insufflation was detected by cell adhesion/invasion assay in vitro. Each group of cells was injected intraperitoneally into 16 BALB/C mice. The number of visible abdominal cavity tumor nodules, visceral metas-tases and survival of the mice were recorded in each group. RESULTS： The expression of E-cadherin, ICAM-1, CD44 and E-selectin in SWl116 cells were changed significantly following exposure to CO2 insufflation at different pressures （P 〈 0.05）. The expression of E-cadherin, CD44 and ICAM-1 decreased with increasing CO2-insufflation pressure. The adhesive/ invasive cells also decreased gradually with increasing pressure as determined by the adhesion/invasion assay. In animal experiments, the number of abdominal cavity tumor nodules in the 15 mmHg group was also significantly lower than that in the 6 mmHg group （29.7± 9.91 vs 41.7±14.90, P = 0.046）. However, the survival in each group was not statistically different. CONCLUSION： CO2-insufflation induced a temporary change in the adhesion and invasion capacity of cancer cells in vitro. Higher CO2-insufflation pressure inhibited adhesion, invasion and metastatic potential in vitro and in vivo, which was associated with reduced expression of adhesion molecules.

Promotion of activation ability of N vacancies to N2 molecules on sulfur-doped graphitic carbon nitride with outstanding photocatalytic nitrogen fixation ability

Nitrogen vacancies and sulfur co-doped g-C3N4 with outstanding N2 photofixation ability was synthesized via dielectric barrier discharge plasma treatment. X-ray diffraction, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, N2 adsorption, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, and temperature-programmed desorption were used to characterize the as-prepared catalyst. The results showed that plasma treatment cannot change the morphology of the as-prepared catalyst but introduces nitrogen vacancies and sulfur into g-C3N4 lattice simultaneously. The as-prepared co-doped g-C3N4 displays an ammonium ion production rate as high as 6.2 mg·L^-1·h^-1·gcat^-1, which is 2.3 and 25.8 times higher than that of individual N-vacancy-doped g-C3N4 and neat g-C3N4, respectively, as well as showing good catalytic stability. Experimental and density functional theory calculation results indicate that, compared with individual N vacancy doping, the introduction of sulfur can promote the activation ability of N vacancies to N2 molecules, leading to promoted N2 photofixation performance.

Decreasing Arctic Sea Ice Mirrors Increasing CO_2 on Decadal Time Scale

Arctic sea ice is a keystone indicator of greenhouse-gas induced global climate change, which is expected to be amplified in the Arctic. Here we directly compare observed variations in arctic sea-ice extent and CO 2 since the beginning of the 20th century, identifying a strengthening linkage, such that in recent decades the rate of sea-ice decrease mirrors the increase in CO 2 , with r ～ -0.95 over the last four decades, thereby indicating that 90% (r 2 ～ 0.90) of the decreasing sea-ice extent is empirically "accounted for" by the increasing CO 2 in the atmosphere. The author presents an empirical relation between annual sea-ice extent and global atmospheric CO 2 concentrations, in which sea-ice reductions are linearly, inversely proportional to the magnitude of increase of CO 2 over the last few decades. This approximates sea-ice changes during the most recent four decades, with a proportionality constant of 0.030 million km 2 per ppmv CO 2 . When applied to future emission scenarios of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), this relationship results in substantially faster ice decreases up to 2050 than predicted by IPCC models. However, departures from this projection may arise from non-linear feedback effects and/or temporary natural variations on interannual timescales, such as the record minimum of sea-ice extent observed in September 2007.
