Deterioration Mechanism

The deterioration mechanism of recycled plaster (R-P) was studied. The large specific surface area (SSA), improper preparation temperature, increased water requirement of R-P, and microstructure of its hardened body were analyzed by particle size distribution (PSD), Blaine method, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and nitrogen adsorption porosimetry. The results indicated that the properties of R-P were deteriorated, but its strength decreases from 50% at the same manufacturing process to 30%–40% at similar specific surface area. The analysis shows that the large SSA, poor morphology, narrow PSD, and increased internal detects give rise to increase of water requirement. In addition, the deterioration properties are caused by unsuitable temperature of preparation, loose structure, and large average pore diameter in hardened R-P as well.

Coal Reservoir

The pore structure characteristic is an important index to measure and evaluate the storage capacity and fracturing coal reservoir. The coal of Baliancheng coalfield in Hunchun Basin was selected for experiments including low temperature nitrogen adsorption method, Argon Ion milling Scanning Electron Microscopy (Ar-SEM), Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), X-ray diffraction method, quantitative mineral clay analysis method. The pore structure of coal was quantitatively characterized by means of fractal theory. Meanwhile, the influences of pores fractal dimension were discussed with experiment data. The results show that the organic pores in Baliancheng coalfield are mainly plant tissue pores, interparticle pores and gas pores, and the mineral pores are corrosion pores and clay mineral pores. There are mainly slit pore and wedge-shaped pore in curve I of Low temperature nitrogen adsorption. There are ink pores in curve II with characteristics of a large specific surface area and average pore diameter. The two peaks of NMR T2 spectrum indicate that the adsorption pores are relatively developed and their connectivity is poor. The three peaks show the seepage pores and cracks well developed, which are beneficial to improve the porosity and permeability of coal reservoir. When the pore diameter is 2–100 nm, the fractal dimensions D1 and D2 obtained by nitrogen adsorption experiment. there are positive correlations between water content and specific surface area and surface fractal dimension D1, The fractal dimension D2 was positively and negatively correlated with ash content and average pore diameters respectively. The fractal dimensions DN1 and DN2 were obtained by using the NMR in the range of 0.1 μm˜10 μm. DN1 are positively correlated with specific surface area of adsorption pores. DN2 are positively correlated volume of seepage pores. The fractal dimension DM and dissolution hole fractal dimension Dc were calculated by SEM image method, respectively controlled by clay mineral and feldspar content. There is a remarkable positive correlation between D1 and DN1 and Langmuir volume of coal, so fractal dimension can effectively quantify the adsorption capacity of coal.

Marine Shale

Fractal characterization offers a quantitative evaluation on the heterogeneity of pore structure which greatly affects gas adsorption and transportation in shales. To compare the fractal characteristics between marine and continental shales, nine samples from the Lower Silurian Longmaxi formation in the Sichuan basin and nine from the Middle Jurassic Dameigou formation in the Qaidam basin were collected. Reservoir properties and fractal dimensions were characterized for all the collected samples. In this study, fractal dimensions were originated from the Frenkel–Halsey–Hill (FHH) model with N[Formula: see text] adsorption data. Compared to continental shale, marine shale has greater values of quartz content, porosity, specific surface area and total pore volume but lower level of clay minerals content, permeability, average pore diameter and methane adsorption capacity. The quartz in marine shale is mostly associated with biogenic origin, while that in continental shale is mainly due to terrigenous debris. The N[Formula: see text] adsorption–desorption isotherms exhibit that marine shale has fewer inkbottle-shaped pores but more plate-like and slit-shaped pores than continental shale. Two fractal dimensions ([Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] were obtained at [Formula: see text] of 0–0.5 and 0.5–1. The dimension [Formula: see text] is commonly greater than [Formula: see text], suggesting that larger pores (diameter [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]nm) have more complex structures than small pores (diameter [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]nm). The fractal dimensions (both [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]) positively correlate to clay minerals content, specific surface area and methane adsorption capacity, but have negative relationships with porosity, permeability and average pore diameter. The fractal dimensions increase proportionally with the increasing quartz content in marine shale but have no obvious correlation with that in continental shale. The dimension [Formula: see text] is correlative to the TOC content and permeability of marine shale at a similar degree with dimension [Formula: see text], while the dimension [Formula: see text] is more sensitive to those of continental shale than dimension [Formula: see text]. Compared with dimension [Formula: see text], for two shales, dimension [Formula: see text] is better associated with the content of clay minerals but has worse correlations with the specific surface area and average pore diameter.

In this paper, the structures of element carbon and humic acid extracted from carbonaceous gold concentrate were characterized employing a variety of analytical methods. The extracted amounts of ECE (elemental carbon extract) and HAE (humic acid extract) were 14.84–38.50 and 11.55–28.05 mg g−1, respectively. SEM and porosity analysis indicated that ECE occurred mostly as irregular blocky particles with a mesoporous surface with the average pore diameter being 31.42 nm. The particle size of ECE was mainly ranged from 5.5 to 42 μm and the specific surface area was 20.35 m2 g−1. The physicochemical features and structure of ECE were close to activated carbon, and the crystallinity was slightly lower than graphite. The particle size distribution of HAE varied from 40 to 400 nm with the specific surface area of 42.84 m2 g−1, whereas the average pore diameter of HAE was 2.97 nm. FTIR and UV–VIS analyses indicated that HAE was a complex organic compound containing the enrichment of oxygen-containing structure. The results showed that the adsorption amounts of ECE and HAE under the acidic conditions were 470.46 and 357.60 mg g−1, respectively. In an alkaline environment, the amount of ECE was 449.02 mg g−1 and the value of HAE was 294.72 mg g−1. ECE mainly utilized the outer surface and mesoporous structure to adsorb gold, while the functional groups’ complexation or surface site adsorption was the leading approach for HAE to adsorb gold.

Pillared Montmorillonite

AI-pillared montmorillonite was synthesized from raw clay, mined at Sipovo Srpska Republic. Its textural properties and bleaching capacity were compared with some commercial adsorbents and filtration aid materials commonly used in domestic oil industry. The bleaching capacity of AI-pillared montmorillonite is lower than that of commercial Super Celite L748 (Johns Manville, USA) or Perfit PF-3 (Termika dd., Zrenjanin Yugoslavia), but somewhat is higher than the bleaching capacity of pure montmorillonite. The results suggest that the bleaching capacity of the investigated samples is primarily determined by average pore diameter and not by specific surface area.

The microscopic pore and fissure structure is the key factor affecting the exploitation, storage, and migration of coalbed methane and coal spontaneous combustion tendency. For further research of the microstructure of deep soft coal rock, such as pores and fissures, the coal samples from the Yangdong mining area were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed in terms of morphological characteristics, pore shape, pore specific surface area, pore volume, and pore diameter by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a low-temperature liquid nitrogen adsorption experiment. The results show that there are three major categories and five minor categories of pores with different genetic types, including metamorphic pore, exogenous pore, and mineral pore, and there are endogenous fissures, exogenous tensile fissures, and exogenous shear fissures developed in the coal body. According to the results of the low-temperature liquid nitrogen adsorption experiment, the hysteresis curves of coal samples can be divided into two types. The I type curve produces a loop. There is a “hysteresis loop” which is obvious, and there is an inflection point that is not obvious. The pore system is mainly composed of open pores. The II type curve has no adsorption back line and no obvious inflection point. The pore structure is mainly composed of an impermeable hole closed at one end. The BET specific surface area of coal samples ranges from 0.2810 to 4.7569 m2/g, with an average of 1.27984 m2/g. The BJH pore volume ranges from 0.002864 to 0.007377 cm3/g, with an average of 0.0041246 cm3/g. The average BJH pore diameter of coal samples ranges from 4.3935 to 20.1501 nm, with an average of 16.0313 nm. The pore specific surface area of coal is mainly contributed by micropores, and the transition pores contribute the most to pore volume. The distribution of pore volume in each pore section of a coal sample has the rule that the transition pore is larger than the micropore, and the micropore is larger than the mesopore, and the maximum ratio is 66.2%. The distribution of pore specific surface area has the rule that the micropore is larger than the transition pore, and the transition pore is larger than the mesopore. The maximum ratio is 91.2%.

A ceramic membrane has been produced from a natural zeolite. A series of samples has been sintered at range temperature from room temperaure to 900°C. The influence of the sintering temperature on the specific surface area, pore diameter, and surface roughness has been investigated. It has been found that a decrease for value of the specific surface area and average pore diameter from 300°C to 900°C was attributed to a change of the crystalline structure of tridimite from partially to fully crystallized samples. The fabricated membrane has been used successfully to evaluate the separation performance during the treatment of coconut sap. The membranes have a steady state flux from 0.12 to 0.22 mL/min.cm2 at an applied pressure of 1 bar.

Shale Permeability

The migration law of shale gas has a significant influence on the seepage characteristics of shale, and the flow of the gas is closely related to the pore structure. To explore the influence of shale pore parameters on permeability in different diffusion zones, the pore structure of the shale in the Niutitang Formation in Guizhou, China, was analysed based on liquid nitrogen adsorption experiments and nuclear magnetic resonance experiments. The relationship among fractal dimension, organic carbon content (TOC) and BET-specific surface area was analysed based on the fractal dimension of shale pores calculated using the Frenkel–Halsey–Hill model. Shale permeability was calculated using the Knudsen number ( Kn ) and permeability equation, and the influence of the fractal dimension and porosity in different diffusion zones on shale permeability was analysed. Previous studies have shown that: (i) the pores of shale in the Niutitang Formation, Guizhou are mainly distributed within 1–100 nm, with a small total pore volume per unit mass, average pore diameter, large BET specific surface area and porosity; (ii) fractal dimension has a negative correlation with average pore diameter and TOC content and a quadratic relationship with BET specific surface area; and (iii) permeability has a positive correlation with Kn , porosity and fractal dimension. In the transitional diffusion zone, fractal dimension and porosity have a significant impact on permeability. In the Knudsen diffusion zone, porosity has no obvious effect on permeability. The methodologies and results presented will enable more accurate characterization of the complexity of pore structures of porous media and allow further understanding of the seepage law of shale gas.

AbstractAlumina-zirconia composite materials were produced with different acid ratios by the sol-gel method using aluminum isopropoxide and zirconium chloride. The composites were produced by changing acid/alkoxside ratio in alumina. The composite materials were calcinated at 600°C, 900°C and 1300°C. The effects of acid concentration and calcination temperature on the surface area and pore radius were determined from the nitrogen adsorption isotherm at 77 K. The density of the composites was also measured. The minimum density of produced material was recorded as 1.35 g cm−3 at an acid/alkoxside ratio of 0.2. The highest specific surface area and pore diameter of the lightest material are 191.86 m2 g−1 and 18.4 Ǻ, respectively. Although pore diameter and specific surface area are not changed at any of the experimental temperatures which were tested by decreasing acid/alkoxside ratio, the density is slightly increased. However, it was observed that the calcination temperature significantly affects the surface area and density of the material.
