Abstract Coking coal dust has strong hydrophobicity, and it is difficult to combine with droplets in the air and settle. In order to improve the ability of droplets to collect coking coal dusts, a spray dust suppressant for coking coal dusts was studied. Based on monomer optimization and compounding experiments, two types of surfactant monomers, fatty alcohol ether sodium sulfate (AES) and sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS), were selected as the surfactant components for the dust suppressant. Meanwhile, the surfactant monomers were combined with four inorganic salts and the reverse osmosis moisture absorption of each solution was measured. By combining the results of both reverse osmosis moisture absorption and the water retention experiments, CaCl 2 was selected as the inorganic salt auxiliary component for the dust suppressant. Finally, the best concentration combination of the three components were obtained using orthogonal experiments, i.e., AES (0.05%), SDBS (0.03%), and CaCl 2 (0.6%). The dust suppressant solution constituted by this scheme had a high moisture absorption and great performance.

Abstract Coking coal dust is extremely hydrophobic; therefore, combination with droplets in the air is difficult and dust suppression is challenging. Here, a dust suppressant spray for coking coal dust was studied in order to improve of the combination of droplets and coking coal dust. Based on monomer optimization and compounding analysis, two surfactant monomers, fatty alcohol ether sodium sulfate (AES) and sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) were selected as the surfactant components of the dust suppressant. The surfactant monomers were combined with four inorganic salts and the reverse osmosis moisture absorption of each solution was determined. By combining the reverse osmosis moisture absorption values with the water retention experimental results, CaCl2 was identified as the optimal inorganic salt additive for the dust suppressant. Finally, the optimal concentration of each component was obtained using orthogonal experimental design i.e., AES (0.03%), SDBS (0.05%), and CaCl2 (0.4%). The dust suppressant solution formulated using this method had a high moisture absorption capacity and excellent performance. Graphic Abstract

In this study, coal samples of experimental come from the raw coal of Wangfenggang and Qidong. Sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), water-reducing admixture NF and Tween-80 are choosed as surfactants. The influence factors on wettability of coal dust were characterized by contact angle meter, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and surface tension experiment. The research shows that the effect of solution on wettability of coal dust is mainly depended on the surface structure of coal dust, type and concentration of solution.

The influences of preparing conditions on mechanical properties of the white mud (WM) / Konjac glucomannan (KGM) composite film (MKG) were investigated by orthogonal experiments. Zeta potential analysis and DSC were used to characterize the properties of WM and MKG. The results show that the mechanical properties of MKG films can be enhanced through proper modification. Optimized processing parameters of MKG film are described as following: the ratio of KGM, WM, benzoic acid, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate(LAS) and stearic acid was 100:14:2:0.24:0.14. 1.00 (wt) % of KGM powder was swelled in deionized water with WM modified by stearic acid, benzoic acid and LAS, stirred for 1.5 hour at 60°C and then paved on plate and dried at 40°C for 15 h to form the MKG film.

Abstract Background Predatory flagellates and ciliates are two common bio-contaminants which frequently cause biomass losses in Chlorella mass culture. Efficient and targeted ways are required to control these contaminations in Chlorella mass cultivation aiming for biofuel production especially. Results Five surfactants were tested for its ability to control bio-contaminations in Chlorella culture. All five surfactants were able to eliminate the contaminants at a proper concentration. Particularly the minimal effective concentrations of sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) to completely eliminate Poterioochromonas sp. and Hemiurosomoida sp. were 8 and 10 mg L−1, respectively, yet the photosynthesis and viability of Chlorella was not significantly affected. These results were further validated in Chlorella mass cultures in 5, 20, and 200 m2 raceway ponds. Conclusions A chemical method using 10 mg L−1 SDBS as pesticide to control predatory flagellate or ciliate contamination in Chlorella mass culture was proposed. The method helps for a sustained microalgae biomass production and utilization, especially for biofuel production.

In this paper,the effect of surfactant to the infiltration and the change of saturated hydraulic conductivity was studied by GUELPH PERMEAMETER. We investigated effects on soil infiltration by three representative surfactants.The results show that the existing of sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS), cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide bromide (CTAB) and polyxyethylene fatty alcohol (AEO9) would decrease soil saturated hydraulic conductivity.

A composite material of sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate- (SDBS-) modified maifanite and anhydride-modified Fe@SiO2@PEI (PEI) was used as an adsorbent for the removal of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) and bivalent cadmium (Cd(II)) from groundwater by using column experiments and simulated PRB test. In this study, the optimum proportion of SDBS-modified maifanite and anhydride-modified Fe@SiO2@PEI was 5 : 1. In the column experiments, it was found that the penetration time increased with the increase of the initial concentrations (30, 60, and 90 mg/L) and the decrease of the flow rates (5.45, 10.9, and 16.35 mL/min) at an influent pH of 6.5 ± 0.3 . It was also obtained that the removal rates of Cr(VI) and Cd(ІІ) reached 99.93% and 99.79% at an initial Cr(VI) and Cd(ІІ) concentration of 30 mg/L with the flow rate of 10.9 mL/min, respectively, at 6 h. Furthermore, excellent removal effectiveness of Cr(VI) and Cd(ІІ) (85.94% and 83.45%, respectively) was still achieved in simulated PRB test at a flow rate of 5.45 mL/min with the heavy metal solution concentration of 5.0 ± 0.5  mg/L (Cr(VI) and Cd(II) concentration were, respectively, 5.0 ± 0 . 5 mg/L); and the adsorbent had not completely failed by the end of the trial. Yoon-Nelson model was successfully applied to predict the breakthrough curves for the assessment of composite material heavy metal removal performance and was in good agreement with the experimental data of the heavy metal removal efficiency. The strong removal ability of the adsorbent could be attributed to the fact that maifanite with a large diameter can provide support and increase the permeability coefficient and porosity and that zero-valent iron (ZVI) can convert Cr(VI) to Cr(III) and improve the adsorption capacity of maifanite. The obtained results suggested that the novel PRB fillers have great significance for preventing and controlling Cr(VI)/Cd(ІІ)-contaminated groundwater.
