The degradation of 4-chloro-3-methylphenol(PCMC)using zeolite-encapsulated iron(III),nickel(II),and copper(II)complexes of N,N’-disalicylidene-1,2-phenylenediamine as catalysts,in a heterogeneous Fenton-like ...The degradation of 4-chloro-3-methylphenol(PCMC)using zeolite-encapsulated iron(III),nickel(II),and copper(II)complexes of N,N’-disalicylidene-1,2-phenylenediamine as catalysts,in a heterogeneous Fenton-like advanced oxidation process,was studied.The physicochemical properties of the catalysts were determined using powder X-ray diffraction,thermogravimetric analysis,Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area analysis,Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy,elemental analysis,and scanning electron microscopy.The effects of four factors,namely initial H2O2 concentration,catalyst dosage,temperature,and pH,on the degradation of a model organic pollutant were determined.The results show that at low acidic pH,almost complete removal of PCMC was achieved with the iron(III),nickel(II),and copper(II)catalysts after 120 min under the optimum reaction conditions:catalyst dosage 0.1 g,H2O2 concentration 75 mmol/L,initial PCMC concentration 0.35mmol/L,and 50 °C.The reusability of the prepared catalysts in PCMC degradation was also studied and a possible catalyst deactivation mechanism is proposed.The possible intermediate products,degradation pathway,and kinetics of PCMC oxidation were also studied.展开更多

To perform this investigation, a series of free-running tests was conducted in regular waves using an experimental model of a multipurpose cargo ship to quantify the amount of shipping water. The tests were performed on five bow overhang variants with several combinations of wavelength and ship speed conditions. It was observed that the quantity of shipping water was affected by some parameters such as wavelength, ship speed, and bow shape in terms of an overhang extension. The results show the significant influence of an overhang extension, which is associated with the bow flare shape, on the occurrence of water shipping. These results involve the combined incoming regular waves and model speed.展开更多

By comparison and analysis on the longitudinal strength, torsion strength and deck buckling between designed concepts and the original concept, it is found that by adding box girders under the main deck, the weight of hull structure is increased by lower than 10%, but the stress on the plate of the main deck is reduced by about 10%, the stress on the plating of the second deck is reduced about 20%. The shear stress on the plating of both of the main deck and second deck is reduced, but the shear stresses in several nodes are increased. Also the capability of resisting damage to ship is obviously increased by adding box girders under the main deck. The deck buckling is also increased by more than 90%. Consequently, the box girders added under the main deck are useful and effective to increase the strength of hull and ship survivability.展开更多
