Previous research findings and experiential accounts have provided evidence that specific components of coal ash play a catalytic role in the dry desulfurization of flue gas such that their contributions need to be considered for determining the optimal amount of desulfurizing agent such as limestone. The purpose of this study was to quantify the desulfurization characteristics of coal ash in a 500 MW pulverized coal combustion (PC) boiler as well as a 1000 MW circulating fluidized bed combustion (CFBC) boiler. In parallel with a year-long data collection of coal blends and emission characteristics, a series of temperature-controlled fixed bed (lab scale) experiments were conducted for 11 individual (but representative) coal samples. The results indicated that desulfurization by fly ashes appeared to proceed roughly in proportion to the total alkali (TA) contents of the ash, which were consistent with our preliminary test result of the CFBC boiler. In the PC boiler, however, the desulfurization reaction seemed to be very kinetically limited, apparently deactivating the TA components. We developed a practical equation for a priori prediction of SO2 concentration based on the sulfur content of coal blends.The current study tested the hypothesis of whether specific lipids may control angiogenic reactions. Using the chorioallantoic membrane assay of the chick embryo, new vessel formation was analyzed quantitatively by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry as well as bioinformatics tools including an angiogenesis analyzer. Our biochemical experiments showed that a specific lipid composition and stoichiometry determine the angiogenesis microenvironment to accelerate or inhibit vessel formation. Specific lipids of angiogenesis determinants in the vessel area and the non-vessel area were identified as nitrooleic acid, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), palmitic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, epoxyoleic acid, lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), cholesterol, 7-ketocholesterol, and docosahexaenoyl lysophosphatidylcholine (DHA-LPC). Vessel formation happens on the surface area of the hydrophilic membrane of the yolk. Our biochemical data demonstrated that angiogenesis was followed i current study may guide that the uncovered hydrophobic or zwitterionic molecules such as DHA and DHA-LPC may control angiogenesis as antiangiogenic or proangiogenic molecules as potential drug targets for treating uncontrolled angiogenesis-related diseases, including diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration.Since traditional methods for removing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from wood consume large amounts of energy and generate environmental pollution, it is desired to develop a convenient and green treatment method. Oxidation by microwave-activated persulfate (MW-PS) is a promising alternative method that has been used to eliminate VOCs from wood. The penetration of microwave energy can destroy the wood pit membranes and increase VOC emissions. The VOCs are further degraded by ·OH and SO4•-, which are generated via the activation of microwaves. Defactinib order This phenomenon can be detected by the electron paramagnetic resonance spectrometry. The 35 types of main VOCs of natural wood were determined, including alkanes/terpenes, alcohols/ethers, esters, aldehydes/ketones, and others. In the MW-PS system, 23 compounds were removed with an efficiency of 100%. Specifically, as one of the major compounds, the content of alkanes/terpenes was sharply decreased, and no alcohols/ethers and esters were detected. It was found that the optimal conditions of the MW-PS system for the minimum release of VOCs from wood were the microwave power of 462 W, irradiation time of 30 min, and PS dosage of 0.5 mmol/L.In order to investigate the energy transfer mechanism and the nonequilibrium effect during water evaporation in its own pure vapor at low pressures, a series of precise measurements are conducted to obtain the temperature profile near the liquid-vapor interface and the evaporation rates in an annular pool in a closed chamber. The results show that the interface temperature of the vapor side is higher than that of the liquid side when water evaporates in its own pure vapor at low pressures (ranging from 394 to 1467 Pa), the temperature discontinuity across the interface exists in all experimental conditions. The magnitude of the temperature discontinuity is strongly affected by the vapor pressure. A uniform temperature layer with a thickness of about 2 mm is found below the evaporating interface because of the coupling effect of evaporation cooling and thermocapillary convection. The energy required for evaporation is mainly transferred by thermocapillary convection in the uniform temperature layer. Furthermore, the numerical simulation results confirm that the evaporation flux near the cylinders is much larger than that at the middle region, which implies that most of the latent heat required for evaporation is transferred to the interface near the cylinders.Currently, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems have become an essential part in diesel engines, and urea crystallization is one of the most serious issues in SCR systems. In this paper, the urea deposit formation processes in the SCR system were investigated by numerical simulations based on a fluid-solid coupling method. The results show that the masses of the wall film and solid urea are larger at conditions with lower temperatures and higher injection rates. At higher temperatures, cyanate ions and ammonium ions are the most predominant compositions in the wall film, while at lower temperatures, solid urea is the main composition. It could also be deduced that the location of urea crystallization is more affected by the design of mixer at higher temperatures, whereas at lower temperatures, the location and installation angle of urea-water solution injector play a more important role.Determination of emulsion stability has important applications in crude oil production, separation, and transportation. The turbidimetry method offers advantage of rapid determination of stability at a relatively low cost with good accuracy. In this study, the stability of an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion prepared by dispersing heavy oil particles in the aqueous solution containing poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) has been determined using turbidity measurements. The turbidimetry theory of emulsion stability has been validated using experimental data of turbidity at different wavelengths (350-800 nm) and storage times (0-300 min). The artificial neural network (ANN) has been found to give good predictive performance of the turbidity data. The characteristic change in turbidity has been supported using particle size and distribution analyses performed using optical/video microscopy. The results obtained from the turbidimetry correlation show that the emulsion destabilization rate constant (κ', min-1) is in the range of 0.01-0.04 min-1 (at wavelengths between 350 and 800 nm, respectively). The rate constant remains unchanged (κ' = 0.02 min-1) between the wavelength of 375 and 650 nm. In addition, the demulsification rate constant (κ' = 0.015 min-1) obtained from kinetic modeling using the bottle test is in close agreement with this value. The overall findings ultimately revealed that the turbidimetry method could be used to determine stability of typical O/W emulsions with an acceptable level of accuracy.Linderaggrenolides A-N (1-14), 14 new lindenane sesquiterpenoid dimers with oxygen bridges were isolated from the roots of Lindera aggregata. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of comprehensive spectroscopic data analysis, with the absolute configurations established by empirical approaches, electronic circular dichroism calculations, and X-ray crystallography. Compounds 8 and 9 were found to exhibit significant transforming growth factor-β inhibitory activity, with IC50 values of 25.91 and 21.52 μM, respectively.The prediction exactness of coalbed methane (CBM) content and productivity correlates closely with the gas adsorption rules of coal, but there is a noticeable difference in the gas adsorption rules between deformed and undeformed coal. One of the main factors affecting the gas adsorption capacity of coal is pore structure, which is affected by the particle size, and it is also one of the essential differences between deformed and undeformed coal. In this work, we experimentally study the law of the pore structure and gas adsorption capacity with the particle size. Results show that the specific surface area and the pore volume of undeformed coal increase significantly as the particle size decreases, while the variation trend of those of deformed coal is insignificant. The fractal dimension D2 and the particle size show a U-shaped correlation. The fractal dimension D2 reaches the minimum value at a coal particle size of 1-3 mm and 0.2-0.25 mm for deformed and undeformed coal, respectively. The D2 values of deformed and undeformed coal are closest in the case of particle sizes smaller than 0.1 mm. The difference in the adsorption capacity between deformed and undeformed coal diminishes with the decreasing particle size as the pore structure characteristics of undeformed coal gradually approach those of deformed coal. The obtained conclusions provide a theoretical foundation for the selection of the particle size of coal samples so as to predict coal and gas outburst disasters and CBM productivity accurately.The main aims of this investigation were the isolation of dimeric naphthoquinones, a new class of dinaphthodiospyrols (1-7), from chloroform fractions and screening them for antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant potential. The susceptibility of the isolated compounds, namely, dinaphthodiospyrol A (1), dinaphthodiospyrol B (2), dinaphthodiospyrol C (3), dinaphthodiospyrol D (4), dinaphthodiospyrol E (5), dinaphthodiospyrol F (6), and dinaphthodiospyrol G (7) was assessed for antibacterial potential using well diffusion methods. The isolated compounds showed excellent antibacterial activity against selected bacterial strains, including Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis, Streptococcus epidermis, and Bacillus subtilis, and Gram-negative bacteria Klebsiella pneumonia with the zones of inhibition 6 to 26 nm. The standard drug Imipenem showed a maximum inhibitory zone 30 to 35 nm. Similarly, the isolated compounds were screened for antifungal properties, which showed an excellent reduction in the growth of selecthe tetra-substituted derivatives of dinaphthodiospyrols to the selected target proteins. From the docking analysis, it was found that the docking results are well correlated with the experimental observations. In conclusion, the dinaphthodiospyrols exhibited excellent antibacterial, antifungal, and free radical scavenging potential.High moisture content and high volatile content are typical characteristics of low-rank coal. To acquire the pore structure characteristics of low-rank coal accurately, the particle sizes and the pretreatment temperatures are two key parameters that should be considered when the low-pressure liquid-nitrogen adsorption is used. In this study, a low-rank coal sample was collected from Ordos Basin, and it was polished into four different particle sizes, 40-80 mesh, 80-120 mesh, 120-160 mesh, and 160-200 mesh, respectively. Besides, the low-rank coal samples are handled under seven various pretreatment temperatures (ranging from 120 to 300 °C); then, the pore structure characteristics of low-rank coal under various particle sizes and pretreatment temperatures are acquired. The dynamic change of pore volume and pore-specific surface area for low-rank coal is coincident. Under the same pretreatment temperatures, the mesopores' volume continuously decreases. When the pretreatment temperature reaches 300 °C, a faint increase in their volume is observed.
