Rapid and Continuous Extraction of Methyl Red from Wastewater Using Counter Current Chromatography

A new prototype and simple low speed counter current chromatography (LSCCC) has been fabricated and a laboratory work has been carried out for rapid and continuous removal of methyl red from wastewater using xylene as an extractant. The distribution ratio (D) and percentage of recoveries were calculated. The optimum concentration for extraction of methyl red was in the range of 2 × 10-4 to 8 × 10-4 mol·L-1. Maximum extraction achieved at pH range of 2 to 4.5. Various dye concentrations and solvent effects were studied to optimized conditions. It was shown that when the ratio of the organic phase to aqueous phase increased to more than 3:1, the striping efficiency decreased sharply. The experiments were carried out for 5 times and the highest extraction achieved was 99.8 per cent by two-solvent system LSCCC in just 5 minutes. Real wastewater samples were analyzed and the efficiency of the technique was compared with liquid-liquid extraction (LLE). In practice it was shown that although both techniques are rapid, the efficiency of the LSCCC is much better than LLE.

Effect of counter current gas phase on liquid film

Liquid film flow is very important in many industrial applications.However,there are few reports about its characteristics on structured packings.Therefore,in this paper,liquid film phenomena were investigated experimentally to exploit new approaches for intensifying the performance of the structured packings.All experi-ments were performed at room temperature.Water and air were the working fluids.The effect of counter current gas phase on the liquid film was taken into consideration.A high speed camera,a non-intrusive measurement techni-que,was used.It is shown that both liquid and gas phases have strong effects on film characteristics.In the present work,liquid film width increased by 57% because of increasing liquid flow rate,while it decreased by 25%resulting from the counter current gas phase.

Preparative isolation and purification of 12,13-dihydroxyeuparin from Radix Eupatorii Chinensis by high-speed counter-current chromatography

An efficient method for the isolation and purification of 12,13-dihydroxyeuparin from Radix Eupatorii Chinensis by high speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) was established in this paper. The ether extracts of Radix Eupatorii Chinensis were purified by HSCCC with a solvent system of hexyl hydride-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (1:2:1:2, v/v/v/v). The upper phase was used as the stationary phase and the lower phase as the mobile phase. About 8.4 mg of 12, 13-dihydroxyeuparin was obtained from 200 mg of ether extracts from Radix Eupatorii Chinensis in one-step HSCCC separation, with the purity of 96.71%, as determined by HPLC. After methanol- water recrystallization, the purity of 12,13-dihydroxyeuparin reached 99.83%. Such a simple and effective method was fairly useful to prepare pure compound as reference substances for related study on Radix Eupatorii Chinensis.

An Economical Method for Preparative Purification of Five Alkaloids from Coptis Chinensis Franch by High-Speed Counter-Current Chromatography Using Singled Prepared Solvent System by GC

Coptis chinensis Franch, a widely used Traditional Chinese Medicine, shows various kinds of bioactivity. The major active components of the herb are considered to be alkaloids. Thus, preparative separation of these alkaloids is critical important for further pharmacology and mechanism studies. In the paper, five alkaloids from C. chinensis were purified by HSCCC using the solvent system composed of chloro-form-metha- nol-water (2:1:1, v/v/v) single prepared. The content of each solvent in solvent system were determined by gas chromatography (GC), then according the ratios of solvents in each phase to prepare the mobile and stationary phase respectively. And a comparative study was carried out between together preparation and single preparation of the solvent system. The purities and recoveries of all the products were over 98.5% and 92%. However, 134 mL chloroform, 336 mL methanol and 452 mL water were saved when the two phase were singled by GC. Our research showed an economical method for separating alkaloids from C. chinensis by HSCCC using the solvent system single prepared by GC.

Counter-Wind Deep Current in the Northern Beibu Gulf in Boreal Winter

The Beibu Gulf is at an important geographical location and rich in gas, oil and biological resources. The observed currents showed that the current in the upper layer was opposite to that in the lower layer in boreal winter in the northern Beibu Gulf and it was northeastward in the lower layer. This northeastward current was reproduced by a 3 D baroclinic model in this study. It's found that the counter-wind deep current(referred to as ‘CWDC' hereinafter) strengthened from September to November but weakened from December to the following February. A closed meridional circulation in vertical direction was found in the northern Beibu Gulf, including CWDC, surface southwestward current, an upwelling, and a downwelling. The temporal variation process of the meridional circulation was similar to that of CWDC, with strength and range stronger in November and December than in other four months. Similar to the variation process of CWDC, the monsoon wind changed from weak easterly wind in September to strong northeasterly wind in November and December, and it was transformed into weak southeasterly wind in February again. The sensitive experiments showed that CWDC and the meridional circulation were controlled by the monsoon wind and were adjusted by heat flux-and tide-induced mixing, respectively. According to the momentum balance equation, it can be revealed the counter-wind deep current is a compensation current which is induced by the surface elevation gradient balanced by the Coriolis force, vertical diffusion and baroclinic pressure gradient.

Comparison of Co-Current and Counter-Current Flow Fields on Extraction Performance in Micro-Channels

Several applications such as liquid-liquid extraction in micro-fluidic devices are concerned with the flow of two immiscible liquid phases. The commonly observed flow regimes in these systems are slug-flow and stratified flow. The latter regime in micro-channels has the inherent advantage that separation of the two liquids at the exit is efficient. Recently extraction in a stratified counter-current flow has been studied experimentally and it has been shown to be more efficient than co-current flow. An analytical as well as a numerical method to determine the steady-state solution of the corresponding convection-diffusion equation for the two flow-fields is presented. It is shown that the counter-current process is superior to the co-current process for the same set of parameters and operating conditions. A simplified model is proposed to analyse the process when diffusion in the transverse direction is not rate limiting. Different approaches to determining mass transfer coefficient are compared. The concept of log mean temperature difference used in design of heat exchangers is extended to describe mass transfer in the system.

锂离子电池工作温度过高或温差过大将导致其容量降低和寿命缩短。为了降低其工作温度及温差,设计了一款蜘蛛网流道冷板,采用数值方法对其冷却液对向流锂离子电池散热进行了计算。比较了蜘蛛网流道冷板冷却液对向流与同向流锂离子电池的散热情况,分析了冷却液流量以及冷板内流道夹角、槽深、壁厚对电池散热的影响。结果表明:与冷却液同向流电池相比,冷却液对向流电池最高温度、温差都降低,电池温度分布更加均匀。在0.02~0.06 kg/s区间,随着冷却液流量增大,电池最高温度和温差快速降低,而冷却液压降缓慢增大;当冷却液流量大于0.06 kg/s时,随着冷却液流量增大,电池最高温度和温差缓慢降低,而冷却液压降快速增大。增大流道夹角可使流道在冷板内分布更加均匀,提高冷板散热能力。当冷却液质量流量恒定时,增大流道槽深可使冷却液压降显著减小,但会引起电池最高温度和温差略微升高。随着流道壁厚增大,电池最高温度和温差均呈下降趋势。蜘蛛网流道冷板在流道夹角80°、槽深1 mm、壁厚2 mm、冷却液流量0.06 kg/s对向流冷却条件下,可使锂离子电池3C放电最高温度和温差降至31.02℃和4.54℃。

The spatio-temporal variation of wintertime subtidal currents in the western Taiwan Strait

A new data set of observations by six cruises of ship-mounted acoustic doppler current profiler（SADCP） and three 40 d long bottom-mounted ADCPs（BADCPs） is employed to reveal the spatiotemporal variability of tidal and subtidal currents in the western Taiwan Strait（TWS） during winter season. The results confirm the existence of intense cotidal lines for M2 tidal current, which is located north of 25°N. In this case, no existence of an amphidromic point can be identified. It is also revealed that the counter-wind current（CWC） can extend through the whole western TWS and even occupy the entire water column during winter monsoon relaxation. However,this CWC is observed to be thoroughly overwhelmed by the downwind China coastal current（CCC） during the two big monsoon bloom events in the winter of 2007, and the CCC consequently extends southward throughout the western TWS instead. Most importantly, the variation of the spatial extent for the CWC and the CCC in the western TWS is found to be well explained by the first two modes of the vector empirical orthogonal function（VEOF） analysis, that is, it is mainly controlled by a wind-driven quasi barotropic current as the first mode and slightly modulated by a relatively weak background current with a first-order baroclinic structure as the second mode.

利用有限的石油资源生产高附加值化工原料(低碳烯烃与芳烃)是石油资源低碳高效利用的重要途径。基于我国的能源结构和在催化裂化领域的技术优势,重质原料油在分子筛限域催化下裂解直接制低碳烯烃与芳烃是我国炼油产业的重要发展方向。这对涉及分子筛内离散传递、吸附与反应等过程的调控和多相反应器的设计提出了挑战:(1)分子筛内大分子及芳烃的强吸附对低碳烯烃的传递造成较大的阻力,要求高剂油比及逆流接触,防止重质芳烃的优先吸附并实现低碳烯烃的深度裂解;(2)二次反应速度比一次反应快,要求毫秒级接触时间和近平推流的停留时间分布方可得到高的中间化学品收率。解决这些问题需要在催化剂及反应器两方面同时改进。在这个背景下,本文重点介绍了重质油催化裂化直接制化工品中的离散传递、反应与失活过程,以及气固多相反应工程等相关领域的进展,分析了小分子在分子筛中吸附扩散和相关主客体相互作用研究的最新工作,提出应使用具有晶面选择性的抗积炭高活性纳米分子筛和气固逆流接触的平推流反应器。最后介绍了清华大学自主研发的多级逆流下行催化裂解技术(multi-stage downer catalytic pyrolysis,MDCP^(TM))——通过毫秒级平推流的多级气固并流顺重力下行反应器,级间油气与催化剂逆流接触,大大提高了乙烯、丙烯收率,并减少柴油、油浆收率。1 kg/h的全流程实验结果表明MDCP^(TM)单程双烯收率高达51.54%(质量分数,下同),且汽油中单环芳烃选择性可达80.78%。以MDCP^(TM)为核心单元的重质油直接制化工品(heavyoilto chemicals,HOTC)工艺路线可以得到大于75%的综合化工品收率,与现有技术相比可以降低70%以上的碳排放。
