The catalytic cracking method of PAHs for the pyrolysis gaseous products is proposed to control their pollution to the environment. In this study, the Py-GC-MS is used to investigate in situ the catalytic effect of CaO and Fe2O3 on the 16 PAHs from Pingshuo coal pyrolysis under different catalytic temperatures and catalyst particle sizes. The results demonstrate that Fe2O3 is effective than tha...

In this paper, the cyclic fatigue hysteresis loops of 2D woven SiC/SiC ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) at elevated temperatures in steam have been investigated. The interface slip between fibers and the matrix existing in matrix cracking modes 3 and 5, in which matrix cracking and interface debonding occurred in longitudinal yarns, is considered as the major reason for hysteresis loops of 2D w...

Sunlight heats the greenhouse air temperature and tomato cracking decreases marketable product up to 90%. A shade screen reduced incoming radiation during warm and sunny conditions to reduce tomato cracking. A fuzzy controller managed greenhouse irrigation to reduce tomato cracking using as variables solar radiation and substrate temperature. The embedded controller presented 9 rules and three ...

Abstract Simulation of heavy oil thermal cracking process is very important but few researches have been published now. In this paper, a simulation framework based on the carbon number-based approach(CNCA) has been established. A systematic division rule is put forward for dividing cracked products into 59 carbon number components. Then the cracking reaction network has been structured and the ...

analytical detection of cracking in connections of steel moment resisting frames using simple damage indices is important since these cracks are not visible unless the connections are uncovered. in this paper, applicability of three cumulative damage indices for detection of cracking in a cover plate welded moment connection is investigated. the damage indices considered in this study are based...

Given that concrete masonry walls are expected to experience shrinkage combined with thermal expansion and contraction, and in some cases even carbonation, throughout their service life, cracking is to be expected. However, after concrete masonry walls have been placed into service, originally anticipated and accounted for cracking is often misdiagnosed as a structural defect. Such misdiagnoses...

Though many diagnostic PCR methods have been described, few techniques have been developed to rapidly and efficiently screen transformed bacterial colonies for plasmid presence (1). Unfortunately, PCR screening of a large number of colonies is time consuming and requires substantial amounts of polymerase and primers. In this report, we describe a two-step large-scale bacterial colony screening ...

With the increasing attention to light oil, catalytic cracking process of heavy oil is being vigorously developed. The silicon hydroxyl groups on surface mesoporous silica materials can be used as weak acid centers preliminarily crack macromolecules. Herein, a strategy introducing titanium into skeleton for modification proposed increase active sites, well improve hydrothermal stability. After ...

Brønsted acid sites in zeolites catalyze alkene hydrogenation with H2 via the same kinetically-relevant (C-H-H) + carboniumion-like transition states as those involved in monomolecular alkane dehydrogenation. Reactions between C3H6 and H2 selectively form C3H8 (>80% carbon basis) at high H2/C3H6 ratios (>2500) and temperatures (>700 K). Ratios of C3H8 dehydrogenation to C3H6 hydrogenation rate ...
