In this study, the responses of P. yezoensis to dehydration and rehydration under high and low CO2 concentrations （（600-700）×10^-6 and （40-80）×10^-6, named Group I and Group II respectively） were investigated. The thalli of Group I had a significantly higher effective photosystem II quantum yield than the thalli of Group II at 71% absolute water content （AWC）. There was little difference between thalli morphology, total Rubisco activity and total protein content at 100% and 71% AWC, which might be the basis for the normal performance of photosynthesis during moderate dehydration. A higher effective photosystem I quantum yield was observed in the thalli subjected to a low CO2 concentration during moderate dehydration, which might be caused by the enhancement of cyclic electron flow. These results suggested that P. yezoensis can directly utilize COz in ambient air during moderate dehydration.展开更多

A saturated sulfur capacity as high as 196 mg of S per gram of adsorbent was demonstrated. The influence of loading amount of Cu （II） and calcination temperature on adsorptive desulfurization was investigated. Test results revealed that the optimum loading amount of Cu （II） was 15%, and the calcination temperature was 150 ℃. The pyridine-FTIR spectroscopy showed that a certain amount of Lewis acid could contribute to the increase of adsorption capacity. Spectral shifts of the v（C-S） and v（Cu-S） vibrations were detected from the Raman spectra of the Cu （II） complex which was a reaction product of CuBr2 with DMS. According to the hybrid orbital theory and the complex adsorption reaction, the desulfurization of PM and DMS over the CuBr2 modified bentonite is ascribed to the formation of S-M （σ） bonds.展开更多
