Thermogravimetric Determination of the Kinetics of Petroleum Needle Coke Formation by Decantoil Thermolysis.

ABSTRACT: This work presents the results of thermogravimetric analysis of decantoil. The microstructure of the extracted petroleum coke during the thermolysis of decantoil in an inert nitrogen atmosphere at 1000 °C was studied by scanning electron microscopy and interpreted as acicular. The model free kinetic approach based on Friedman's isoconversion method was used to calculate the kinetic characteristics of decantoil thermolysis-activation energy and pre-exponential factor. The individual hydrocarbon composition of decantoil was determined by gas chromatography mass spectrometry, which was used to determine the activation energy of evaporation of its fractions. The total energy spent on the chemical reactions of cracking and thermopolycondensation was determined when the degree of decantoil conversion was changed from 0.1 to 0.9.

Esterification over Acid-Treated Mesoporous Carbon Derived from Petroleum Coke.

Project description:Multistep activation of a Canadian oilsands petroleum coke that yields an acidified mesoporous carbon catalyst is reported. Microporous-activated carbon (APC; ∼2000 m2/g), obtained by thermochemical activation of petroleum coke using KOH, was impregnated with ammonium heptamolybdate and activated by carbothermal hydrogen reduction (CHR). The resulting Mo2C, supported on high-mesopore volume (V meso ∼0.4 cm3/g) carbon, yields the desired mesoporous carbon catalyst (V meso ∼0.7 cm3/g) following acid washing. The effect of CHR temperature and the benefit of Mo2C loading on mesopore development is reported, and pore development models are discussed. The mesoporous carbons are active for the esterification of acetic acid and 1-butanol at 77 °C, and the butanol conversion correlates with the catalyst acidity, as measured by NH3-TPD.

Petroleum coke exposure leads to altered secretome profiles in human lung models.

Project description:Petroleum coke (PC) is a coal-like product that is produced during the refinement of crude oil and bituminous sand. Fugitive dust from open storage of PC in urban areas is a potential human health concern. Animal inhalation studies suggest that PC leads to an adverse pulmonary histopathology, including areas of fibrosis and chronic inflammation; however, little is known about its impact on human health. In order to identify biomarkers and cellular pathways that are associated with exposure, we performed two-dimensional liquid chromatography-mass spectrometric analyses on secreted proteins from two human lung culture models. A total of 2795 proteins were identified and relatively quantified from an immortalized cell line and 2406 proteins from primary cultures that were either mock treated or exposed to particulate matter with a diameter of 2.5-10 ?m PC or filtered urban air particulates for 16 h. Pathway analysis on secretomes from primary lung cultures indicated that PC exposure suppressed the secretion of proteins involved in the organization of the extracellular matrix and epithelial differentiation. Because these cellular processes could facilitate fibrosis, we performed chronic 12-day exposure studies on three-dimensional human lung cultures consisting of epithelia and stromal fibroblasts. Relative to mock-treated cells, matrix metallopeptidase 9 levels in the conditioned media were lower by 4 days postexposure and remained suppressed for the duration of the experiment. Immunocytochemical staining of collagen III, a marker associated with fibrosis, showed increased accumulation in the epithelial layer and at the air-liquid interface.

Efficient Removal of Bisphenol A Using Nitrogen-Doped Graphene-Like Plates from Green Petroleum Coke.

Project description:Green petroleum coke, a form of industrial waste produced in the oil-refining process, was used to synthesize nitrogen-doped graphene-like plates (N-GLPs) together with melamine. In this study, characterization and batch experiments were performed to elucidate the interaction mechanism of N-GLPs and bisphenol A (BPA). Structural analysis of N-GLPs, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), showed an obvious graphene-like structure and successful nitrogen doping. In addition, compared with 8.0 m2/g for green petroleum coke, the BET surface area of N-GLPs markedly increased to 96.6 m2/g. The influences of various factors, including contact time, temperature, and initial pH on BPA removal efficiency were investigated. It was found that 92.0% of BPA was successfully removed by N-GLPs at 50 °C. Based on the adsorption experiments, it was shown that electrostatic attraction, hydrogen bonding, and ?-? interaction enhanced the adsorption capacity of N-GLPs for BPA. According to the thermodynamic data, the adsorption process was spontaneous, physical, and endothermic in nature. Therefore, N-GLPs are efficient adsorbent material to remove BPA from wastewater.

Determination of the vapour pressure curves and vaporization enthalpies of hafnium alkoxides using thermogravimetric analysis.

Project description:In order to identify a volatile metallo-organic precursor for the deposition of hafnium oxide (HfO2) films for atomic layer deposition (ALD) applications, the evaporative properties of hafnium alkoxides (hafnium isopropoxide, hafnium n-propoxide and hafnium n-butoxide) were investigated using thermogravimetric analysis. These hafnium alkoxide samples were synthesized by the electrochemical method and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance and inductively coupled plasma analysis techniques. The characterization results indicated that the products were 99.997% high-purity hafnium alkoxides and could meet the requirement of purity considering the usage of making HfO2 gate oxide by ALD. Synthesized samples were subjected to a simultaneous thermogravimetric-differential thermal analysis unit at 10 K min-1 in a dry nitrogen atmosphere flowing at 100 ml min-1. Benzoic acid was used to calculate a calibration constant, which could then be inserted into a modified Langmuir equation to calculate vapour pressure curves for hafnium isopropoxide and hafnium n-propoxide. Detailed vapour pressure data for the HfO2 precursor hafnium alkoxides were determined. The vapour pressure curve of hafnium isopropoxide was constructed within the first stage, and calculated to be lnp = 31.157 (±0.200)-13130.57 (±56.50)/T. Hafnium n-propoxide and hafnium n-butoxide were simultaneously undergoing evaporation and decomposition, thus making calculations invalid.

Thermogravimetric analysis of the pyrolysis and combustion kinetics of surface dead combustibles in the Daxing'an Mountains.

Project description:In boreal regions, the frequency of forest fires is increasing. In this study, thermogravimetric analysis was used to analyze the pyrolysis kinetics of dead surface combustibles in different forest types within the Daxing'an Mountains, China. The results show that the combustible material load of forest types, the Larix forest (LG) is relatively high. Base on the E of kinetic parameters, the LG, and Quercus forest (QM) forest types had relatively high combustibility values and comprehensive combustibility values for 1-, 10-, and 100-h time lags. According to the obtained P values, the pyrolysis of dead surface fuels with 1-, 10-, and 100-h time lags is relatively difficult in the Larix / Betula mixed forest (L-B) and QM forest types. Therefore, mixed forests of the LG, L-B, and QM tree species can be established as fire-resistant forests to establish a fire barrier, reduce the combustibility of forest stands, and reduce the possibility of forest fires.

Reversible Nature of Coke Formation on Mo/ZSM-5 Methane Dehydroaromatization Catalysts.

Project description:Non-oxidative dehydroaromatization of methane over Mo/ZSM-5 zeolite catalysts is a promising reaction for the direct conversion of abundant natural gas into liquid aromatics. Rapid coking deactivation hinders the practical implementation of this technology. Herein, we show that catalyst productivity can be improved by nearly an order of magnitude by raising the reaction pressure to 15?bar. The beneficial effect of pressure was found for different Mo/ZSM-5 catalysts and a wide range of reaction temperatures and space velocities. High-pressure operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy demonstrated that the structure of the active Mo-phase was not affected by operation at elevated pressure. Isotope labeling experiments, supported by mass-spectrometry and 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, indicated the reversible nature of coke formation. The improved performance can be attributed to faster coke hydrogenation at increased pressure, overall resulting in a lower coke selectivity and better utilization of the zeolite micropore space.

Coke Formation during Propane Dehydrogenation over Ga-Rh Supported Catalytically Active Liquid Metal Solutions.

Project description:Supported Catalytically Active Liquid Metal Solutions (SCALMS) were recently described as a new class of heterogeneous catalysts, where the catalytic transformation takes place at the highly dynamic interface of a liquid alloy. Their application in alkane dehydrogenation has been claimed to be superior to classical heterogeneous catalysts, because the single atom nature of Rh dissolved in liquid Ga hinders the formation of significant amounts of coke, e.?g. by oligomerisation of carbon fragments and excessive dehydrogenation. In the present study, we investigate the coking behaviour of Ga-Rh SCALMS during dehydrogenation of propane in detail by means of high-resolution thermogravimetry. We report that the application of Ga-Rh SCALMS indeed limits the formation of coke when compared to the Ga-free Rh catalyst, in particular when relating coke formation to the catalytic performance. Furthermore, the formed coke has been shown to be highly reactive during temperature programmed oxidation in 21?% O2/He with onset temperatures of approx. 150?°C enabling a regeneration of the Ga-Rh SCALMS system under mild conditions. The activation energy of the oxidation lies in the lower range of values reported for spent cracking catalysts. Monitoring the formation of coke and performance of SCALMS in?situ via thermogravimetry coupled with mass spectrometry revealed the continuous formation of coke, which becomes the only process affecting the net weight change after a certain time on stream.

Additive Induced Formation of Ultrathin Sodium Chloride Needle Crystals.

Project description:A multitude of ultrathin crystal needles are formed during the evaporation of saturated aqueous NaCl solution droplets in the presence of amide containing additives. The needles are as small as 300 nm wide and 100-1000 ?m in length. Heating experiments, X-ray diffraction, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy showed that the needles are cubic sodium chloride crystals with the needle length direction pointing toward [100]. This shape, not expected for the 43?m point group symmetry of NaCl, has been explained using a model, based on tip formation by initial morphological instability followed by time dependent adsorption of additive molecules blocking the growth of the needle side faces. The latter also suppresses side branch formation, which normally occurs for dendrite growth.

Determination of in vivo RNA kinetics using RATE-seq.

Project description:The abundance of a transcript is determined by its rate of synthesis and its rate of degradation; however, global methods for quantifying RNA abundance cannot distinguish variation in these two processes. Here, we introduce RNA approach to equilibrium sequencing (RATE-seq), which uses in vivo metabolic labeling of RNA and approach to equilibrium kinetics, to determine absolute RNA degradation and synthesis rates. RATE-seq does not disturb cellular physiology, uses straightforward normalization with exogenous spike-ins, and can be readily adapted for studies in most organisms. We demonstrate the use of RATE-seq to estimate genome-wide kinetic parameters for coding and noncoding transcripts in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
