A conventional laboratory bench-scale jar test apparatus was employed for the experiments. Coag-flocculation parameters such as reaction order α, rate constant K, coagulation time τ, etc. were determined. The optimum pH was observed at 4.0, while the blend of 30.0 mg/L FeCl3 and 250.0 mg/L OSC achieved the optimum turbidity removal. Turbidity removal efficiency was recorded between 96.0% and 99.9% for various dosages and pH studied. The coagulation rate constants, K recorded range from 9.393 × 10-5 L/mg.min to 8.294 × 10-1 min-1, while coagulation periods τ, range from 3.8 s to 235.7 s for various dosages and pH studied. The use of OSC blended with FeCl3 showed high level of efficiency, for the treatment of coal washery effluent.展开更多

The industrialized preparation parameters were optimized as follows： reaction temperature 85-95 ℃, oxygen flow rate 8-12 L/min, reaction time 210 min, the ratio of starch to water 1：5, 3.5 wt% of NaOH and 0.1 wt% of catalyst. The experimental results show that the concentration of hydrolysate-oxidaton product is 16-18 wt%. The powdered products were gained through dehydrated and powdered process using quadruple-effect evaporator, spray drying tower and guide shell mixer. The composting test indicates that the degradability of the oxidized corn starch can reach 76.4%. The complexation capacity of calcium ions reaches 108.5 mg per gram oxidized starch, and the detergency ratio （P） reaches 1.30 as builder.展开更多

The swelling behavior of the modified oxidized tapioca starch was analyzed by optical microscope, and two other corn starches （common corn starch and high amylose corn starch） were also analyzed for comparison. The modified starch used as a binder for the consolidation swelled at about 55 ℃, began to gelatinize at 65 ℃ and then was completely gelatinized at 75 ℃. But the corn starches could not be completely gelatinized even at 80 ℃ for 1 h. The high-strength green bodies （10.6 MPa） with the complex shapes were produced. The green bodies were sintered without any binder burnout procedure at 1 700 ℃ and a relative density of 95.3% was obtained for the sintered bodies, which is similar to that of the sintered sample formed by conventional slip casting. In addition, the effect of temperature on the apparent viscosity of the starch/alumina slurry in the process was investigated, and the corresponding mechanism for the starch consolidation was discussed.展开更多

The corn starch and the alkali catalyst are mixed in the mixer, then added the cationic etherifying agent (3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride). The reacting time is for 5 hours at the temperature of 70℃. The cationic starch with high degree of substitution is used as anionic charge neutralizing agents to improve filler retention in wet-end section of papermaking machine.展开更多

The Au NPs show high selectivity that aldehyde is oxidized into carboxylic acid while alcoholic hydroxyl group stays intact in selective oxidation of 4-(hydroxymethyl)-benzaldehyde. The heterogeneous catalysis system is composed of soluble catalysts and insoluble substrate. The gold catalyst is prepared, preserved and applied for catalytic oxidation all in water. After reaction conditions are optimized, H2O2 is found to be the best oxidizing agent with complete conversion.Besides, the gold catalyst displays good versitility for aldehyde derivatives. After reaction completes, organic components are extracted by organic solvent and gold NPs in water are separated and recycled.展开更多
