In order to meet the need of separating oil from water in the settling tank of the oilfield, ClO2 treatment for oil-water transition layer in settling tank is introduced. The field test displayed that the technique was achieved by a good performance. For understanding the oxidation and mechanism, compositions of oil-water transition layer were comparatively studied for before/after ClO2-treatment in this paper.The experimental results show that the compositions before and after ClO2-treatment, including physical structure and chemical composition, were varied in the great extension. The physical structure, consisting of water, oil and solid phase, was reduced to less than 5% of water and 0.5% of solid particle and increased to 95% of oil in layer compared with before-treatment, easily leading to clearly separating water from oil. The chemical composition of iron sulfide and acid insoluble substance in solid phase was decreased to more than 90% while the carbonate was reduced more than 70% . After the treatment, the viscosity reduction of the water phase in the layer was reached to 50% after oxidation demulsification with ClO2. The chemistry was discussed based on the principles and experiments. Due to ClO2 destroying (oxidizing) the rigid interface membrane structure which is supported by natural surfactant, polymer and solid particles with interface-active materials, the action accelerates the separating of water and oil and sedimentation of insoluble residue of acid in the layer. By demonstrating the experimental data and discussion, we can effectively control the oxidation performance of chlorine dioxide, which is very meaningful for oilfield on the aspect of stable production of petroleum.

Graphene for its unique physical structure, excellent mechanical, electrical and physical properties has been widely applied in nanoelectronics, microelectronics, energy storage material, composite materials and so on. In recent years, many researchers found graphene have outstanding adsorption capacity of contaminants in aqueous solution due to its high specific surface area. This paper summarized the graphene, graphene oxide and functionalized graphene removing various heavy metals in waste water.

he existence of oil-water transition layer brings a great trouble to the dehydration of oil gathering and transportation system. It leads to raising the electric current of dehydrator and becoming worse of the deoiling and dehydrating properties of the treatment equipment, resulting in the serious influences on oil recovery. For the efficient treatment of the transition layer, it is necessary clearly to understand the structure and composition of the layer. In this paper, the physical structure and chemical composition of the layer were systematically, layer by layer and phase by phase, analyzed by modern instrumental methods The results show that (1)the layer is an emulsion which is composed of oil, water and suspended solids. The water phase has characteristics of weak alkaline,high salinity and viscous polymer. The oil phase contains many natural emulsifiers such as colloid, asphaltene and so on. The solid phase mainly concludes FeS particle which plays a decisive role in suspended solids; (2) the typical transition layer is composed of water and oil which accounts for above 90%, the content of solid impurity, which controls the emulsion of the layer, is less than 10%. Compared with oil phase, the water content of typical transition layer is larger with the density of 0.9~1.0 g/L and high freezing point. The analytical data can be adopted for the treatment of oil-water transition layer and smoothly run operations for oil gathering and transportation.

The possibility of receiving of compositional Ni-P coating modified by potassium polytitanate was analyzed. An aqueous solution to obtain the composite coatings on the basis of nickel-phosphorus alloy modified by K2О·nTiO2 onto steel details of the friction knots was developed. The complex oxide K2О·nTiO2 represents a layered material from the scaly form nanocrystals with 20-80 nm thick and "diameter" 280 nm. The velocity forming of the modified compositional Ni-P coating was investigated, and the optimal quantity of the introduced potassium polytitanate (8 g/l), as a modified compound into solution, was determined, too. The tribological characteristics and micro-hardness of the resulting coatings depending on the chemical composition of solution and surface state of the rider were investigated.

In geological disposal of radioactive wastes, the study of Americium migration is very important for the safety evaluation of the repository. The forms of chemical components of Americium presence in aqueous solution that directly affect its migration behavior provide a basis for analog computation of the element. This paper uses PHREEQC, the geochemical model, for analog computation of forms of Americium presence in two types of groundwater, and analyzes the morphologies of the main elements and the influencing factors. The results show that the morphology of Americium is mainly controlled by the characteristics of the chemical composition of groundwater, while the PH value also has a great impact on the forms of Americium presence.

The interplanetary dust may be composed of cometary material, interstellar grains, debris from asteroidal collisions, primordial material formed by direct condensation, or contributions from all of these sources. Before we can determine the origin of the dust, we need to know its physical nature, spatial distribution, and the dynamical forces that act on the particles. The spatial distribution and dynamics are separately treated in this symposium by Roosen. We discuss here the physical characteristics of the dust particles: their size distribution, chemical composition, physical structure, and optical properties.

AbstractThe contribution of meteor observations to our knowledge of meteoroids and interplanetary dust is reviewed under four headings – flux, mass distribution, physical structure and chemical composition. For lower limits of particle mass ranging from 1 g to 10−5 g the mean cumulative flux into the earth’s atmosphere varies from 2 × 10−15 to 6 × 10−9 particles m−2 s−1 (2Πster)−1, and the mean size distribution of these particles is given by log N = C – 1.3 log M, where N is the cumulative number of particles counted down to a lower mass limit M, and C is a constant. The physical structure of meteoroids in the above range is essentially fragile, with generally low mean bulk densities that tend to increase with decrease in mass. A minor fraction, about 10 or 15 per cent, with orbits lying inside that of Jupiter, have densities several times the average densities, approaching those of the carbonaceous chondrites. The mean chemical composition of meteoroids seems to be similar to the bronzite chondrites for the elements heavier than number 10, but with the probable addition of extra quantities of the light volatiles H, C and O.

A study has been carried out of the chemical composition and physical structure of small particles, 130 nm in diameter, isolated from the calyx of the ichneumon, Nemeritis canescens. The particles are vesicular, con­sisting of a densely-staining core surrounded by an outer membrane. The core of the particles is made up of protein and carbohydrate in the ratio 100 : 17; no nucleic acid was detected. The basic chemical subunit of the core of the particles appears to be a glycoprotein of molecular mass ca . 45000. The basic structural subunit of the core, however, is a short, hollow cylinder, about 10 nm across. It seems likely that several chemical subunits make up one structural subunit, and that many structural subunits, surrounded by the membrane, make up a single particle.

In this research, the author has investigated by means of the voltaic balance the kind and amount of chemical change, the rate at which decomposition proceeds, and the chemical composition of the products formed at all stages of decomposition of chlorine-water, when exposed to daylight and sunlight in colourless glass vessels. The chlorine-water, by exposure to diffused daylight, was decomposed with moderate uniformity, but at a gradually diminishing rate, as shown by the losses of voltaic energy, until no further loss of such energy occurred; the liquid then consisted of an aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid, hypochlorous acid, and chloric acid.
