A novel immobilized visible light-active photocatalyst (TiO2/polyvinyl alcohol after thermal treatment (T-PVA)/cordierite honeycomb (CHC)) was successfully prepared by a simple and convenient method combining sol–gel and thermal treatment using tetrabutyl titanate (TBOT) as the titanium source, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as the precursor of conjugated polymer, and CHC as the support. The synthesized photocatalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, ultraviolet–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and field emission scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that PVA was dehydrated to produce conjugated unsaturated T-PVA. The T-PVA not only extended the response spectrum of TiO2 to visible light region, but also strengthened the adhesion of TiO2 to CHC. The TiO2/T-PVA/CHC showed both outstanding adsorption properties and excellent photocatalytic performance under visible light on the decolorization of Rhodamine B. Over eight cycles, the photocatalyst continued to maintain perfect photocatalytic activity, showing good stability.

This study investigated the formation of volatile carbonaceous disinfection by-products (DBPs) and nitrogenous DBPs from chlorination of oxytetracycline. Six DBPs were identified including chloroform (CF), 1,1-dichloroacetone, 1,1,1-trichloroacetone (TCP), dichloroacetonitrile (DCAN), trichloroacetonitrile, and trichloronitromethane. DBP yields varied with different reaction conditions, including chlorine concentration, reacting time, pH, and bromide concentration. The highest DBP yields were found at Cl2/C mass ratio and reaction time of 5 and 3?days, respectively. The solution pH had significant influence on CF, DCAN, and 1,1,1-TCP formation. The concentration of CF increased with the increase of pH, while DCAN and 1,1,1-TCP yields were high at acidic pH and decreased greatly under alkaline conditions. In the presence of bromide, the DBP composition shifted to multiple bromide compounds, including bromodichloromethane, dibromochloromethane, bromoform, bromochloroacetonitrile, and dibromoacetonitrile. 相似文献
Core samples of sandstone with extra-low permeability from Huimin area in Shengli oil field were selected, and the shape and composition of clay mineral in core samples were analyzed by SEM and XRD. Electrokinetic potential of clay minerals in four experimental fluids was measured, under reference to formation water’s salinity and different pH by means of Zeta Probe (potential measuring apparatus). The results show that the positive ion concentration in these experimental fluids is higher than the critical value to balance the negative ions on the face of clay minerals. That makes the positive ion in the state of over-saturated and keeps the value of electrokinetic potential positive in a wide range of pH value. We have evaluated the salt sensitivity extent of the samples, and analysed the data with electrokinetic potential of clay minerals in experimental fluids. The results show that the salt sensitivity mechanism of extra-low permeability sandstone reservoirs, with kaolinite-chlorite-illite and chlorite-illite as the main clay mineral composition, is that with the formation salinity decreasing, the thickness of water film increases, which brings about decreasing of effective pore-throat and enhancement of permeative resistance. 相似文献
There are a series of special mountain soils on the Tibetan Plateau of China in an alpine environment for the high altitude. However, very few studies have focused on major soil elements in relation to soil formation in this area. Aluminum (Al), iron (Fe), calcium (Ca), sodium (Na), potassium (K) and magnesium (Mg) contents of 237 topsoil samples covering a 2.8-km altitudinal gradient in uncultivated areas along the Qinghai-Tibet Railway of China were measured using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. The spatial distribution of the elements and its relationship to the parent rocks and climatic parameters were analyzed. Soils along the gradient are derived from a range of parent materials, but most are less than 30 cm deep with little development (Cambisols). Soil Al, Fe and Mg contents showed a decreasing trend from the start station (Xining Station) to end station (Lhasa Station) of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, whereas soil K and Na contents were relative stable from Xining Station to the Kunlun Mountains and then increased gradually. Soil Ca content was lower in the southern part of Tanggula Mountains. The major soil element contents clearly reflected the parent rock and climatic influences. Soils with higher Ca content appeared in areas with Ca-Mg carbonate rocks, soils with higher Al were found in areas with silicate-rich and high-Al silicate clastic rocks and silicate-rich aluminosilicate loose sediments. Soils with higher K and Na contents appeared in areas with high-K, high-Na and silicate-rich aluminosilicate rocks. Soil Na and K contents were affected by temperature, whereas the contents of Mg, Fe, Ca and Al were more affected by precipitation. Soil Na and K contents increased with increasing temperatures, whereas the contents of Mg, Fe, Ca and Al decreased with increasing precipitation. This analysis provides a relationship between soil properties and rapidly changing environmental conditions. The data can be used to investigate the effect of the climate or land use change on soil properties. 相似文献
Modori-inducing proteinases (MIPs) in horse mackerel and the effect of sodium citrate on the modori phenomenon were investigated. Cysteine protease caused the modori phenomenon only at 60 ℃, while metalloproteinase caused it at both 60 ℃ and 70 ℃. Moreover, the autolysis of myofibrillar proteins was mainly inhibited by ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA), verifying the existence of insoluble metalloproteinase. From the results comparing thermal gel properties and protease activities, we confirmed that increased activity of insoluble metalloproteinase corresponded to the weakening of the thermal gel. Thus, insoluble metalloproteinase was the major MIP in horse mackerel. Moreover, sodium citrate could markedly inhibit insoluble metalloproteinase activity at 60 ℃. The addition of sodium citrate significantly improved the breaking force of the thermal gel at 60 ℃ and 70 ℃, suggesting that sodium citrate could suppress the modori phenomenon by inhibiting insoluble metalloproteinase. Therefore, it is desirable to use sodium citrate in horse mackerel surimi-based products to prevent the modori phenomenon.
