The studies of scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy reveal their homogeneity both in inner (similar to 10 nm) and outer diameter (20-40 nm) of the tubes. The studies of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and the oxidation of carbon nanotubes in air demonstrate that the tubes have good graphitic degree.展开更多

Apart from the traditional “flows” and “forces”,e. g., those for heat conduction and mass diffusions in each phase , we introduced the heterogeneouseffects: gas-solid heat and mass transfer, which lead to some new flows and forces in the entropyproduction formulation.展开更多

The characterization of the coke shows that the deactivation of catalyst is caused by the jam of bulkier molecules, such as naphthalene, indane and linear alkylbenzenes, which are too big to move quickly in the intracrystalline pores of catalyst. The deactivated catalyst can be regenerated by benzene washing at higher temperature. To make the processes of reaction and regeneration continuous, a novel moving bed reactor is developed. Comparing with the processes with fixed bed reactors, the processes in this work have the advantages of continuous operation, low temperature, low pressure, low mole ratio of benzene to olefins, and high weight hourly space velocity.展开更多

Successful coal gasification experiments were achieved using the coal gasifier. Product gas containing hydrogen as high as 60% was obtained, and the calorific value of the product of 10 MJ·m-3 was obtained using air as oxidant. The reaction temperature of coal gasification in the moving bed was maintained at 870 °C which was comparatively low for coal gasification. Maximum coal gasification efficiency of 92% was obtained.展开更多
