We resolve the transition pathway of compressed graphite, whose complex high-pressure structure is formed by shearing the boat architecture without nuclei core and controlled by local strain and crystal orientation.

A Bi2Te3-based thermoelectric semiconductor was subjected by high pressure torsion (HPT). Sample disks of p-type Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3.0 were cut from sintered compacts that were made by mechanically alloying (MA) followed by hot pressing. Disks were subjected by HPT with 1, 5 and 10 turns at 473 K under 6.0 GPa of pressure. Crystal orientation was investigated by X-ray diffraction. Microstructures were characterized using scanning electron microscopy. Results indicated that HPT disks after 5 turns had a preferred orientation and a fine grain compared with pre-HPT disks while the orientation factor was decreased after HPT using 10 turns. The power factor had a maximum value at 5 turns as determined by measuring its thermoelectric properties. A maximum power factor of 4.30×10-3 Wm-1K-2 was obtained for HPT disks after 5 turns. This value was larger than that for the pre-HPT disk. The over-HPT of 10 turns was found to have caused a decrease in the preferred orientation leading to a low power factor.

The article explores the potential for modification of the well-known salt cavern leaching process for brine production or/and hydrocarbon or hydrogen storage facilities, enabling the acceleration of the pace of acquiring new storage capacities with their increased geomechanical stability. The innovative technology is based on the use of high-pressure water jet technique for disc niche cutting in salt rock. The effect of such operations is a significant increase in the contact area of the water with the rock during cavern leaching and faster concentrated brine recovery already in the first leaching phase. This aspect was tested in 67 tests performed for three different types of rock salt: green, pink, and Spiza salt. Laboratory tests of the successive cutting of niches with a stream of water at 500 bar were carried out. The effectiveness of water jet was demonstrated and the possibilities of effective cutting of niches. Significant relationships were found between the obtained depth of niches at a given stream pressure and the duration of individual operations. Depending on the type of salt, the rate of increase in their depth was determined. The presented test results precede the much larger upscaling project, currently at the preparatory stage.

In a certain reaction time, CO2 concentration and flow rate, the carbonation experiment was carried out about green pellets prepared by the ferrous dust and active lime with 15%, 20%, 25%, 30% CaO content ratio respectively. The conversion ratio, porosity and compressive strength of carbonation pellets were analyzed at 200°C, 400°C, 600°C, 800°C.The results show that, with the reaction temperature increasing, CaO conversion ratio of carbonation reaction and the compressive strength increased, and the porosity decreased significantly; when the reaction temperature is 800°C, the CaO conversion ratio of reaction with 25% CaO content pellet can reach 47.26%, these can make the carbonation pellet to achieve a better carbonation degree and quality.
