The regeneration behavior of manganese oxide sorbent under O2atmosphere was investigated in a fixed bed micro-reactor under the influence of different temperatures and O2 concentrations. The change in phase of the sulfided and the regenerated sorbents was analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. MnS, Mn3O4 and MnSO4 were found in regenerated sorbent at 400 °C, which indicated that the regeneration of the sulfided sorbent was not complete, however, MnS was converted to Mn3O4, Mn2O3 and few MnSO4 at 800 °C. The manganese sulfate formed during the regeneration but decomposed to Mn2O3 at 800 °C. MnS reacts with O2 to form Mn3O4 and MnSO4, and then MnSO4 was decomposed at 800 °C. The results show that the optimum regeneration temperature and O2 concentration obtained from this experiment are 800 °C and 2.2 vol %, respectively, and the regeneration conversion ratio was about 95%.

Effects Of Temperature

The effects of temperature and concentration of sulfur dioxide on regeneration behavior of manganese oxide sorbent were studied in a fixed-bed reactor. The sorbents were characterized by X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Subsequently, the regeneration mechanism was inferred and the yield of export elemental sulfur was calculated. The study shows that, the major regeneration products are Mn3O4, MnSO4 and a small amount of elemental sulfur under SO2 atmosphere.The sulfate can be converted to Mn3O4and Mn2O3 at 800 °C under N2 atmosphere. The elemental sulfur productivity increases with the increase of temperature and concentration of sulfur dioxide.The regeneration conversion attains maximum value (68%) at 800 °C under the atmosphere of 1.68% SO2, and the productivity of elemental sulfur reaches to maximum value (29%) under the conditions.

The experimatal alloys were aged at different temperatures of 180°C, 200°C, 220°C, and 240º C with calcium addition levels of (X=0.5, 1, 1.5, 2%) on Mg-6Al-1Zn-XCa alloy were investigated in 3.5% NaCl solution. All the experimatal alloys were immersed in 3.5% NaCl solutions and the resulted surface were analyzed to study the corrosion behaviour and its surface topography by optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersed spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. The result shows that corrosion attack occurred predominantly on ß phase and α phase exhibit relatively minor corrosion. In addition to that the increased aging temperature coarsens the intermetallic as well as α- Mg grains, which shows adverse effect to corrosion resistances and the best result were obtained at composition of 0.5wt.% Ca aged at 200°C.

Incomplete oxidation of titanium nitride (TiN) to prepare nitrogen-doped TiO2 was verified by calcining TiN at different temperatures in air for 30 min. The as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results confirmed that oxidizing TiN incompletely is an effective and simple method to prepare nitrogen-doped TiO2. Photocatalytic degradation of phenol was conducted to evaluate the photocatalytic activity of as-prepared samples. The results showed that phenol can be degraded efficiently by the as-prepared samples under visible light; low phenol concentration was conducive to degradation; the optimum calcination temperature and photocatalyst dosage are 650 °C and 0.5 g/L, respectively. The effects of different light sources on phenol degradation were compared. The reusability of nitrogen-doped TiO2 was tested and the results indicated a relatively good reusability under laboratory conditions.

AbstractThe oxidation of UO2–type spent nuclear fuel (SNF) in gaseousmedia was studied at different temperatures and oxygen contents using gravimetric and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. The aim of the study was to determine the mechanism(s) of thermal-oxidation alteration of SNF during long-term dry storage. The samples used in the experiments were chips of RBMK-1000 fuel rods.Oxidation of UO2with a mean burn-up of 10.7 and 19.73 MW d/kg in humid air was observed at a temperature as low as 150°C. At 200°C nearly all of the UO2was transformed into U3O8 between 3500-4000 hours. In a humid nitrogen environment containing of 0.05-1.3 vol. % oxygen at 300°C, the UO2 completely transformed to U3O8 between 2500-3000 hours. Oxidation of UO2in samples with small amounts of jacket damage (e.g., <0.04 MM2)ll progresses more slowly and after â3000 hours the oxygen-to-uranium ratio was 2.56.Stabilization of the oxidation process was not observed in the fuel samples upto an O/U ratio of 2.4, which may be attributed to the smallburn-up of the fuel under investigation.

Co/Mg1−XCe3+XO (x = 0, 0.03, 0.07, 0.15; 1 wt% cobalt each) catalysts for the dry reforming of methane (DRM) reaction were prepared using the co-precipitation method with K2CO3 as precipitant. Characterization of the catalysts was achieved by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The role of several reactant and catalyst concentrations, and reaction temperatures (700–900 °C) on the catalytic performance of the DRM reaction was measured in a tubular fixed-bed reactor under atmospheric pressure at various CH4/CO2 concentration ratios (1:1 to 2:1). Using X-ray diffraction, a surface area of 19.2 m2.g−1 was exhibited by the Co/Mg0.85Ce3+0.15O catalyst and MgO phase (average crystallite size of 61.4 nm) was detected on the surface of the catalyst. H2 temperature programmed reaction revealed a reduction of CoO particles to metallic Co0 phase. The catalytic stability of the Co/Mg0.85Ce3+0.15O catalyst was achieved for 200 h on-stream at 900 °C for the 1:1 CH4:CO2 ratio with an H2/CO ratio of 1.0 and a CH4, CO2 conversions of 75% and 86%, respectively. In the present study, the conversion of CH4 was improved (75%–84%) when conducting the experiment at a lower flow of oxygen (1.25%). Finally, the deposition of carbon on the spent catalysts was analyzed using TEM and Temperature programmed oxidation-mass spectroscopy (TPO-MS) following 200 h under an oxygen stream. Better anti-coking activity of the reduced catalyst was observed by both, TEM, and TPO-MS analysis. Copyright © 2021 by Authors, Published by BCREC Group.

Cost Efficient

The Fenton-type oxidation catalyzed by iron minerals is a cost-efficient and environment-friendly technology for the degradation of organic pollutants in water, but their catalytic activity needs to be enhanced. In this work, a novel biochar-supported composite containing both iron sulfide and iron oxide was prepared, and used for catalytic degradation of the antibiotic ciprofloxacin through Fenton-type reactions. Dispersion of FeS/Fe3O4 nanoparticles was observed with scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Formation of ferrous sulfide (FeS) and magnetite (Fe3O4) in the composite was validated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Ciprofloxacin (initial concentration = 20 mg/L) was completely degraded within 45 min in the system catalyzed by this biochar-supported magnetic composite at a dosage of 1.0 g/L. Hydroxyl radicals (·OH) were proved to be the major reactive species contributing to the degradation reaction. The biochar increased the production of ·OH, but decreased the consumption of H2O2, and helped transform Fe3+ into Fe2+, according to the comparison studies using the unsupported FeS/Fe3O4 as the catalyst. All the three biochars prepared by pyrolysis at different temperatures (400, 500 and 600 °C) were capable for enhancing the reactivity of the iron compound catalyst.

A hybrid magnetron sputtering/pulsed laser deposition process was used to grow nanocrystalline yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) embedded in an amorphous YSZ/metal matrix. This nanocomposite design reduced friction and improved the toughness of YSZ. Films containing both silver and molybdenum exhibited friction coefficients between 0.2 and 0.4 in air (40% relative humidity) against silicon nitride balls at temperatures between 25° C and 700 °C. Additional solid lubricants reduced the friction coefficient to &lt;0.2 for over 10000 cycles at all temperatures. A multilayer film architecture was developed to further enhance the lifetime of the adaptive coatings. Electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to correlate adaptive behavior at different temperatures to the composition and structure of the films.

Tetrakis-diethylamino hafnium (TDEAH), tris-diethylamino aluminum (TDEAA), and ozone were used for the atomic layer deposition (ALD) of HfO2, Al2O3, and HfAlOx films. The ALD rates were measured to be 1.1 Å/cycle for HfO2 and 1.3 Å/cycle for Al2O3. The ALD temperature windows were found to be between 200 and 325 °C for TDEAA, and between 200 and 275 °C for TDEAH. The overlap of these ALD windows between 200 and 275 °C is critical for ALD of the composite film, HfAlOx. In addition to the overlapping ALD temperature windows, the two metal precursors have similar thermal characteristics, as shown by TGA and differential scanning calorimetry. As-deposited films and films postannealed at 600 and 800 °C films were analyzed using Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and x-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. FTIR spectra revealed interfacial oxide growth during deposition of both HfO2 and Al2O3 whose thickness increased with annealing temperature. The FTIR data also indicated hydroxyl and nitrate groups in the films; these species were removed after annealing in Ar at a temperature of ⩾600 °C. Both FTIR and XRD results indicated the crystallization of pure HfO2 after annealing at temperatures as low as 600 °C. On the other hand, pure Al2O3 remained amorphous after annealing at temperatures up to 800 °C. XRD data of the composite HfAlOx film show that films deposited by alternating five cycles of HfO2 and one cycle of Al2O3 remained amorphous after annealing at 600 °C. Rutherford backscattering analysis of HfAlOx deposited with a varied number of alternating HfO2 and Al2O3 cycles demonstrated a strong correlation between the cyclic dosage of TDEAA and TDEAH and the film composition.

Titanium carbide (TiC) thin films were prepared by non-reactive simultaneous double magnetron sputtering. After deposition, all samples were annealed at different temperatures under high-vacuum conditions. This paper mainly discusses the influence of deposition methods and annealing temperatures on microstructure, surface topography, bonding states and electrical resistivity of TiC films. XRD (X-ray diffraction) results show that TiC thin films can still form crystals without annealing, and the crystallinity of thin films is improved after annealing. The estimated grain size of the TiC films varies from 8.5 nm to 14.7 nm with annealing temperature. It can be seen from SEM (scanning electron microscope) images that surfaces of the films are composed of irregular particles, and when the temperature reaches to 800 °C, the shape of the particles becomes spherical. Growth rate of film is about 30.8 nm/min. Oxygen-related peaks were observed in XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) spectra, which is due to the absorption of oxygen atoms on the surface of the film when exposed to air. Raman spectra confirm the formation of TiC crystals and amorphous states of carbon. Resistivity of TiC films decreases monotonically from 666.73 to 86.01 μΩ·cm with the increase in annealing temperature. In brief, the TiC thin films prepared in this study show good crystallinity, thermal stability and low resistivity, which can meet the requirements of metal gate applications.

The MnO2/TiO2 (TM5) catalyst modified by molybdenum was used for mercury oxidation at different temperatures in a fixed-bed reactor. The addition of molybdenum into TM5 was identified as significantly enlarging the optimal temperature range for mercury oxidation. The optimal mercury oxidation temperature of TM5 was only 200 °C, with an oxidation efficiency of 95%. However, the mercury oxidation efficiency of TM5 was lower than 60% at other temperatures. As for MnO2–MoO3/TiO2 (TM5Mo5), the mercury oxidation efficiency was above 80% at 200–350 °C. In particular at 250 °C, the mercury oxidation efficiency of TM5Mo5 was over 93%. Otherwise, the gaseous O2, which could supplement the lattice oxygen in the catalytic reaction, played an important role in the process of mercury oxidation over TM5Mo5. The results of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) suggested that mercury oxidized by O2 over TM5Mo5 followed the Mars–Maessen mechanism.
