The formation of hydroquinone (HQ) clathrate and the guest behaviors of binary (CH4 + CO2) gas mixtures were investigated by focusing on an application to separate CO2 from landfill gases. Spectroscopic measurements show that at two experimental pressures of 20 and 40 bar, CO2 molecules are preferentially captured in HQ clathrates regardless of the gas composition. In addition, preferential occupation by CO2 is observed more significantly when the formation pressure and the CH4 concentration are lower. Because the preferential occupation of CO2 is found with binary (CH4 + CO2) gas mixtures regardless of the composition of the feed gas, a clathrate-based process can be applied to CO2 separation or concentration from landfill gases or (CH4 + CO2) mixed gases.

Abstract. Effect of background gas composition on the measurement of CO2 levels was investigated by wavelength-scanned cavity ring-down spectrometry (WS-CRDS) employing a spectral line centered at the R(1) of the (3 0° 1)III ← (0 0 0) band. For this purpose, eight cylinders with various gas compositions were gravimetrically and manometrically prepared within 2σ = 0.1 %, and these gas mixtures were introduced into the WS-CRDS analyzer calibrated against standards of ambient air composition. Depending on the gas composition, deviations between CRDS-determined and gravimetrically (or manometrically) assigned CO2 concentrations ranged from −9.77 to 5.36 μmol/mol, e.g., excess N2 exhibited a negative deviation, whereas excess Ar showed a positive one. The total pressure broadening coefficients (TBPCs) obtained from the composition of N2, O2 and Ar thoroughly corrected the deviations up to −0.5–0.6 μmol/mol, while these values were −0.43–1.43 μmol/mol considering PBCs induced by only N2. The use of TBPCs enhanced deviations to be corrected to ~ 0.15 %. Furthermore, the above correction linearly shifted CRDS responses for a wide extent of TPBCs ranging from 0.065 to 0.081 cm−1 atm−1. Thus, accurate measurements using optical intensity-based techniques such as WS-CRDS require TBPC-based instrument calibration.

ABSTRACTWe have studied methods of improving glow-discharge-deposited a-Si1−x Gex :H alloys deposited using silane and germane gas mixtures. Material processing methods studied include (1) varying the substrate temperature from 170° to 280°C, (2) varying the process gas composition and pressure, (3) dilution of the feed gas by hydrogen, argon, or helium, (4) enhancing etching during deposition by adding small amounts of XeF2 vapor into the process gas, and (5) postdeposition annealing and/or hydrogenation.

The purpose of this study was to develop an isolated upper airway preparation in conscious dogs. Each of the four dogs was trained to wear an individually fitted respiratory mask and surgically prepared with two side-hole tracheostomies. After full recovery, one endotracheal tube was inserted caudally into the lower tracheostomy hole and another tube cranially into the upper tracheostomy. When the two endotracheal tubes were connected to a breathing circuit including a box-balloon system, the magnitude and pattern of the inspiratory flow through the upper airway were identical to that inhaled spontaneously into the lungs by the dogs, but the gas medium inhaled into the upper airway could be independently controlled. Thus it allowed test gas mixtures to be inhaled spontaneously through an isolated upper airway. One limitation was that the inspired gas remained in the upper airway during expiration, but this can be corrected by a simple modification of the breathing circuit. This preparation was tested in studying the respiratory effects of upper airway exposure to CO2 gas mixtures. Our results showed small but significant reduction in both rate and volume of respiration when the concentration of CO2 gas mixture inhaled through the upper airway exceeded 5%. Irregular breathing patterns were frequently elicited in these dogs by higher concentrations (greater than 12%) of CO2.
