In this work, binary spinels of Mg–Al, Mg–Fe, and Mg–Cr in the powdered and lump states were synthesized and used as raw materials to investigate the decomposition mechanism of chromite in sulfuric acid–dichromic acid solution. The leaching yields of metallic elements and the changes in morphology of the spinel were studied. The experimental results showed that the three spinels were stable in sulfuric acid solution and that dichromic acid had little influence on the decomposition behavior of the Mg–Al spinel and Mg–Fe spinel because Mg^(2+), Al^(3+), and Fe^(3+) in spinels cannot be oxidized by Cr^(6+). However, in the case of the Mg–Cr spinel, dichromic acid substantially promoted the decomposition efficiency and functioned as a catalyst. The decomposition mechanism of chromite in sulfuric acid–dichromic acid solution was illustrated on the basis of the findings of this study.展开更多

The studied mixtures included benzene/toluene, toluene/xylene, benzene/isopropylbenzene, ethyl acetate/toluene and benzene/ethyl acetate. Experimental results show that various ACF-Ps, as with ACF-W, can remove both vapors in binary vapor mixtures with over 99% of removal efficiency before the breakthrough point of the more weakly adsorbed vapor. In dynamic competitive adsorption, the more weakly adsorbed vapor not only penetrates early, but also will be displaced and desorbed consequently by stronger adsorbate and therefore produces a rolling up in the breakthrough curve. The ACF-Ps prepared at different temperatures have somewhat different adsorption selectivity. The feed concentration ratio of vapors, the length/diameter ratio and the thick of bed have effect on competitive adsorption. The competitive adsorption ability of a vapor is mainly related to its boiling point. Usually, the higher the boiling point, the stronger the vapor adsorbed on ACF-P.展开更多

In this work, a systematic study of leaching RE using sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, mixed acid and two-step leaching of phosphoric acid and sulfuric acid was performed. The aims are to illuminate the main factors that inhibit RE leaching and to provide insights into the further enrichment of RE in the wet phosphoric acid solution. The results indicate that H2SO4 is not an effective acid for leaching isomorphism RE from phosphorite ore. The low RE leaching efficiency attributes to the RE cocrystallized and encapsulated by phosphogypsum (PG) as well as the precipitation of RE by RE sulfates or phosphates. High concentration of H3PO4 can enhance the dissolution and diffusion of RE ions. Hence, the optimized leaching mode of improving RE leaching efficiency is to adequately dissolve phosphorite ores in high concentration of H3PO4 solution and then add H2SO4 to crystallize PG. The effect of corystallization or encapsulation of PG on RE can be decreased due to the crystallizing mode of PG in the bulk solution instead of on the interface of solid reactants. RE leaching efficiency can be high up to 65% by the optimized leaching mode.展开更多
Two years field and greenhouse studies were carried out to evaluate the efficacy of sub-lethal doses of glyphosate (Round upR), ammonia gas, phosphoric acid and sulfuric acid against Phelipanche aegyptiaca in potato. ...Two years field and greenhouse studies were carried out to evaluate the efficacy of sub-lethal doses of glyphosate (Round upR), ammonia gas, phosphoric acid and sulfuric acid against Phelipanche aegyptiaca in potato. Results showed that sequential application of sub-lethal doses of glyphosate at all tested rates significantly reduced P. aegyptiaca shoot number and shoot dry weight. While, the use of ammonia gas, phosphoric acid and sulfuric acid had no significant effect on the total level of P. aegyptiaca infection as compared to the control. The best results considering both P. aegyptiaca control and selectivity in potato were obtained by sequential application of sub-lethal doses of glyphosate at 60 and 80 g·ai·ha-1. Sequential application of glyphosate at 60 g·ai·ha-1 reduced P. aegyptiaca infection by 100% after 100 days after potato emergence (DAPE). Except for sequential application of glyphosate at 60 and 80 g·ai·ha-1, all tested rates enhanced the maturity rate of potato plants and decreased the number of marketable potato tubers.展开更多
