Th...The separation characteristic of raw coal from Luoyang mining area, China, was investigated by applying a dry coal beneficiation flowsheet with the dense medium gas-solid fluidized bed as main separating equipment. The experimental and simulation results indicate that the dense medium gas-solid fluidized bed can provide uniform distribution and stable fluctuation of bed densities at various heights. Two types of different separating approaches were compared using the dry coal beneficiation flowsheet. Compared with obtaining cleaning coal in the first stage of the flowsheet, a higher yield of the cleaning coal and better separation efficiency can be achieved when discharging gangue in the first stage. Finally, the results indicate that 64.86% pure cleaning coal with an ash content of 11.77% and 13.53% middlings were obtained, and 21.61% gangue was removed in two successive separation stages with the probable errors of 0.05 and 0.07 g/cm3, respectively.展开更多

The wear mechanism of the separating ring is not well understood. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy were employed to analyze the surface features and dislocation characteristics of the separating ring. The typical features of furrows and rolled tongue-like metal were found on the surface of separating ring by scanning electron microscopy observation, which can be considered as a major indication of the grain-abrasion. A zone of high density dislocation was noted on the subsurface of the separating ring by transmission electron microscopy observation, which implies the contribution of the severe impact on the surface of the separating ring in the wear process. The influences of the structure of the separating ring, the service condition and the in-service stress distribution on the wear behavior, were also analyzed. The results show that the failure of separating ring results from the impact wear and grain-abrasion together with the plastic deformation.展开更多

The aluminum hydrate sol derived from the inorganic salt Al(NO3)3, whose transparence and viscosity are 97% and 1.2 × 10-3 Pa. s, respectively, can be formed through adjusting the ratio of the peptizing agent H+ to Al3+ to 0.3.

To this end, fluorinated semi-interpenetrating polymer networks(semiIPNs) were prepared using different catalyst amounts(denoted as F23-CLF-30-D). The involved curing and phase separation processes were monitored using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, a haze meter and a rheometer. Curing rate constant and activation energy were calculated using a theoretical model and numerical method, respectively. Results revealed that owing to its co-continuous micro-phase separation structure, the F23-CLF-30-D3 semi-IPN exhibited considerably higher tensile strength and elongation at break than pure fluororubber F2314 and the F23-CLF-30-D0 semi-IPN because the phase separation and curing rates matched in the initial stage of curing.An arc Brazilian test revealed that F23-CLF-30-D-based composites used as mock materials for PBXs exhibited excellent mechanical performance and storage stability. Thus, the matched curing and phase separation rates play a crucial role during the fabrication of high-performance semi-IPNs;these factors can be feasibly controlled using an appropriate catalyst amount.展开更多

文摘Separation and recognition of radar signals is the key function of modern radar reconnaissance,which is of great sig-nificance for electronic countermeasures and anti-countermea-sures.In order to improve the ability of separating mixed signals in complex electromagnetic environment,a blind source separa-tion algorithm based on degree of cyclostationarity(DCS)crite-rion is constructed in this paper.Firstly,the DCS criterion is con-structed by using the cyclic spectrum theory.Then the algo-rithm flow of blind source separation is designed based on DCS criterion.At the same time,Givens matrix is constructed to make the blind source separation algorithm suitable for multiple sig-nals with different cyclostationary frequencies.The feasibility of this method is further proved.The theoretical and simulation results show that the algorithm can effectively separate and re-cognize common multi-radar signals.

文摘This study developed a direct reduction route to smelt refractory high-phosphorus iron ores by using hydrogen rich gas.The effects of temperature,gas composition,and gangue on the reduction behavior of iron ore pellets were investigated.Additionally,the migration behavior of phosphorus throughout the reduction-smelting process was examined.The apparent activation energy of the reduction process increased from 64.2 to 194.2 kJ/mol.Increasing the basicity from 0.5 to 0.9 increased the metallization rate from 85.9%to 89.2%.During the reduction process,phosphorus remained in the gangue phase.Carbon deposition and phosphorus removal behaviors of the pellets were investigated and correlated with the gas composition,temperature,pressure,metallization rate,and basicity.Increasing the FeO and CaO contents led to an increase in the liquidus temperature.A high metallization rate of the pellets reduced the phosphorus removal rate but increased the carbon content of the final iron product.Increasing basicity restricted the migration of phosphorus and improved the rate of phosphorus removal.The optimum dephosphorization parameters were separation temperature of 1823 K,basicity of 2.0,and metallization rate of 82.3%.This study presents a high-efficiency and low carbon method for smelting high-phosphorus iron ores.

文摘To enhance the separation selectivity of Mg-MOF-74 towards CO_(2) in a CO_(2)/N_(2) mixture,a series of Mg-MOF-74 and Ni_(x)/Mg_(1-x)-MOF-74 adsorbents were prepared by solvothermal synthesis in this paper.It was found that the adsorption capacity of Mg-MOF-74 for CO_(2) could be effectively increased by optimizing the amount of acetic acid.On this basis,the bimetal MOF-74 adsorbent was prepared by metal modification.The multi-component dynamic adsorption penetration analysis was utilized to examine the CO_(2) adsorption capacity and CO_(2)/N_(2) selectivity of the diverse adsorbent materials.The results showed that Ni0.11/Mg0.89-MOF-74 showed a CO_(2) adsorption capacity of 7.02 mmol/g under pure CO_(2) atmosphere and had a selectivity of 20.50 for CO_(2)/N_(2) under 15% CO_(2)/85%N_(2) conditions,which was 10.2% and 18.02% higher than that of Mg-MOF-74 respectively.Combining XPS,SEM and N_(2) adsorption-desorption characterization analysis,it was attributed to the effect of the more stable unsaturated metal sites Ni into the Mg-MOF-74 on the pore structure and the synergistic interaction between the two metals.Density Functional Theory(DFT)simulations revealed that the synergistic interaction between modulated the electrostatic potential strength and gradient of the material,which was more favorable for the adsorption of CO_(2) molecules with small diameters and large quadrupole moment.In addition,the Ni0.11/Mg0.89-MOF-74 showed commendable cyclic stability,underscoring its promising potential for practical applications.

文摘The development of high-performance non-fullerene acceptors with extended exciton diffusion lengths has positioned the sequential layer-by-layer(LBL)solution processing technique as a promising approach for fabricating high-performance and large-area organic solar cells(OSCs).This method allows for the independent dissolution and deposition of donor and acceptor materials,enabling precise morphology control.In this review,we provide a comprehensive overview of the LBL processing technique,focusing on the morphology of the active layer.The swelling intercalation phase-separation(SIPS)model is introduced as the mainstream theory of morphology evolution,with a detailed discussion on vertical phase separation.We summarize recent strategies for morphology optimization.Additionally,we review the progress in LBL-based large-area device and module fabrication,as well as green processing approaches.Finally,we highlight current challenges and future prospects,paving the way for the commercialization of LBL-processed OSCs.
