The bamboo powder is liquefied by microwave heating with polyethylene glycol (400), glycerin and EC as liquefiers and sulfuric acid as a catalyst. The microwave liquefaction process for bamboo powder polyhydric alcohols is studied with the single factor experiment to determine the optimal liquefaction conditions, which is: mass ratio of polyethylene glycol (400) and glycerin is 80:20; the liquefaction rate is 99% in the liquid-solid mass fraction at 4:1, sulfuric acid mass fraction at 3%, and microwave power at 800W for 15 minute reaction. Hydroxyl value for liquefied product of bamboo powder polyhydric alcohols is 300-400mgKOH/g. Analysis of liquefied products by infrared spectrum and GC-MS shows there are a great many such compounds as alcohol ethers and esters in liquefied products.

The construction waste was processed into recycled aggregate to produce solid construction waste brick with grade of MU20. The preparation process of recycled aggregate and the optimal value of mass ratio of water to cement (water cement ratio) and mass ratio of recycled aggregate to cement was studied. The results shows that when the water cement ratio is 0.86 and the mass ratio of recycled aggregate to cement is 5.5 and the dosage of activator is 0.25% (mass fraction with recycled aggregate), the compressive strength of sample is 22.5MPa and can be satisfied with the requirement of MU20 solid concrete brick.

The liquefaction of corncob in polyhydric alcohols was investigated by using sulfuric acid as a catalyst. Results showed that the best liquefaction could be obtained with residue percent of 4.5% under the conditions with the corncob/polyhydric alcohols mass ratio of 1/5, reaction temperature of 150°C, reaction time of 60 min, catalyst amount of 3% (based on the weight of corncob), PEG 400/glycerin mass ratio of 7/3 in the polyhydric alcohols, respectively. The liquefied liquid products had acid number of 18.9 mg KOH/g and hydroxyl number of 616.3mg KOH/g, respectively.

The construction waste was processed into recycled aggregate to produce paving brick with grade of Cc40. The influences of raw material ratio on the compressive strength of construction waste paving brick were studied with orthogonal analysis method. The results show that the optimum raw material ratio are as follows: mass ratio of recycled aggregate to cement is 3.0, water cement ratio 0.30, compound activator 1.1% (mass fraction of cement, the same below), interfacial agent 0.6%, and water reducing agent of 0.5%. In addition, mechanisms of the admixtures were further studied by SEM and EDS.

Using PEG400 and glycerol as liquefacient, the residue from bamboo processing was liquefied at the presence of a catalyst. Liquefaction technology of residue from bamboo processing in polyhydric alcohols was studied by orthogonally-designed experiment, and the liquefaction products were applied in the preparation of flexible polyurethane foam. The result showed that liquefaction rate could reach as high as 99.32% when liquefaction temperature was 160°C, mass ratio of liquid to solid was 4:1 and liquefaction time was 90min. Hydroxyl value of liquefaction products obtained was 56.63mgKOH/g and viscosity was 300mPa•s. Flexible polyurethane foam prepared from liquefaction products was analyzed with infrared spectrum and scanning electron microscope, and was compared with conventional flexible polyurethane foam.

Polyethylene glycol-400 was used as phase transfer catalyst in reaction of dichloropyridine and sodium thiomethoxide to form 2-methylthiopyridine with a yield of 97.8%. Then 2-methylthiopyridine and sodium hypochlorite were added respectively to oxidize and bromize it to synthesis 2-Pyridyl tribromomethyl sulfone, with the purity of 99.6% and yield of 93.3%. Mass ratio of dichloropyridine versus polyethylene glycol-400 is 1:0.18, and molar ratio of dichloropyridine versus sodium thiomethoxide is 1:1.2. The optimum conditions to prepare sodium hypochlorite are a temperature at-5 to 0 °C, a molar ratio of bromine versus sodium hydroxide being 1:4. Proved optimum conditions to synthesis 2-pyridyl tribromomethyl sulfone are a temperature at (80±1)°C, reaction time for 5 hours and the molar ratio of 2-methylthiopyridine versus bromine being 1:6.58. Probable mechanism of synthetizing 2-methylthiopyridine was speculated, properties with structure of resultant substances were characterized by melting point apparatus, IR spectra and magnetic resonance spectrum.

Abstract Spent chromated copper arsenate (CCA)-treated wood was liquefied in polyethylene glycol 400/glycerin (2:1w/w). Sulfuric acid (95–98%) and ferrous salts (FeSO4·7H2O or FeCl2·4H2O) were used as catalysts and additives, respectively. The resulting liquefied CCA-treated wood was diluted with aqueous solvents and was then mixed with complexion/precipitation agents, followed by precipitation or filtration to remove the toxic metal-bearing sediment. As a result, more than 90% of Cu, Cr or As was removed.

Objective: Rheumatoid arthritis is a dreaded disease, characterized by pain, inflammation and stiffness of joints, leading to severe immobility problems. The disease shows circadian variation and usually gets aggravated in early morning hours. Aceclofenac, a BCS Class II compound is routinely used in the treatment of pain and inflammation associated with rheumatoid arthritis. The objective of this study was to develop an osmotic delivery system of Aceclofenac that after administration at bedtime would deliver the drug in the morning hours. </P><P> Methods: A series of osmotically controlled systems of aceclofenac was developed by using lactose, sodium chloride and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose K100M as osmogens. Cellulose acetate (2% w/v in acetone) with varying concentrations of polyethylene glycol-400 was used as the coating polymer to create semi permeable membrane and dissolution was carried out in 290 mOsm phosphate buffer. Formulation optimization was done from four considerations: cumulative release at the end of 6 hours (lag time), cumulative release at the end of 7 hours (burst time), steady state release rate and completeness of drug release. </P><P> Results: A formulation having swelling polymer hydroxypropyl methylcellulose in the core and lactose and sodium chloride as osmogens, polyethylene glycol-400 (16.39 %) as pore former, with a coating weight of 5% was a close fit to the target release profile and was chosen as the optimum formulation. Conclusion: Aceclofenac tablets containing lactose, HPMC and sodium chloride in the core, given a coating of cellulose acetate and PEG-400 (5% wt gain), generated a release profile for optimum management of rheumatoid arthritic pain.
