Effects of igneous intrusion on microporosity and gas adsorption capacity of coals in the Haizi Mine, China.

ABSTRACT: This paper describes the effects of igneous intrusions on pore structure and adsorption capacity of the Permian coals in the Huaibei Coalfield, China. Twelve coal samples were obtained at different distances from a ~120 m extremely thick sill. Comparisons were made between unaltered and heat-affected coals using geochemical data, pore-fracture characteristics, and adsorption properties. Thermal alteration occurs down to ~1.3 × sill thickness. Approaching the sill, the vitrinite reflectance (R(o)) increased from 2.30% to 2.78%, forming devolatilization vacuoles and a fine mosaic texture. Volatile matter (VM) decreased from 17.6% to 10.0% and the moisture decreased from 3.0% to 1.6%. With decreasing distance to the sill, the micropore volumes initially increased from 0.0054 cm(3)/g to a maximum of 0.0146 cm(3)/g and then decreased to 0.0079 cm(3)/g. The results show that the thermal evolution of the sill obviously changed the coal geochemistry and increased the micropore volume and adsorption capacity of heat-affected coal (60-160 m from the sill) compared with the unaltered coals. The trap effect of the sill prevented the high-pressure gas from being released, forming gas pocket. Mining activities near the sill created a low pressure zone leading to the rapid accumulation of methane and gas outbursts in the Haizi Mine.

Deep Learning Models for Predicting Gas Adsorption Capacity of Nanomaterials

Project description:Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), a class of porous nanomaterials, have been widely used in gas adsorption-based applications due to their high porosities and chemical tunability. To facilitate the discovery of high-performance MOFs for different applications, a variety of machine learning models have been developed to predict the gas adsorption capacities of MOFs. Most of the predictive models are developed using traditional machine learning algorithms. However, the continuously increasing sizes of MOF datasets and the complicated relationships between MOFs and their gas adsorption capacities make deep learning a suitable candidate to handle such big data with increased computational power and accuracy. In this study, we developed models for predicting gas adsorption capacities of MOFs using two deep learning algorithms, multilayer perceptron (MLP) and long short-term memory (LSTM) networks, with a hypothetical set of about 130,000 structures of MOFs with methane and carbon dioxide adsorption data at different pressures. The models were evaluated using 10 iterations of 10-fold cross validations and 100 holdout validations. The MLP and LSTM models performed similarly with high prediction accuracy. The models for predicting gas adsorption at a higher pressure outperformed the models for predicting gas adsorption at a lower pressure. The deep learning models are more accurate than the random forest models reported in the literature, especially for predicting gas adsorption capacities at low pressures. Our results demonstrated that deep learning algorithms have a great potential to generate models that can accurately predict the gas adsorption capacities of MOFs.

Breaking the trade-off between selectivity and adsorption capacity for gas separation.

Project description:The trade-off between selectivity and adsorption capacity with porous materials is a major roadblock to reducing the energy footprint of gas separation technologies. To address this matter, we report herein a systematic crystal engineering study of C2H2 removal from CO2 in a family of hybrid ultramicroporous materials (HUMs). The HUMs are composed of the same organic linker ligand, 4-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)pyridine, pypz, three inorganic pillar ligands, and two metal cations, thereby affording six isostructural pcu topology HUMs. All six HUMs exhibited strong binding sites for C2H2 and weaker affinity for CO2. The tuning of pore size and chemistry enabled by crystal engineering resulted in benchmark C2H2/CO2 separation performance. Fixed-bed dynamic column breakthrough experiments for an equimolar (v/v = 1:1) C2H2/CO2 binary gas mixture revealed that one sorbent, SIFSIX-21-Ni, was the first C2H2 selective sorbent that combines exceptional separation selectivity (27.7) with high adsorption capacity (4 mmol·g-1).

Net, excess and absolute adsorption in mixed gas adsorption.

Project description:The formulation of a thermodynamic framework for mixtures based on absolute, excess or net adsorption is discussed and the qualitative dependence with pressure and fugacity is used to highlight a practical issue that arises when extending the formulations to mixtures and to the Ideal Adsorbed Solution Theory (IAST). Two important conclusions are derived: the correct fundamental thermodynamic variable is the absolute adsorbed amount; there is only one possible definition of the ideal adsorbed solution and whichever starting point is used the same final IAST equations are obtained, contrary to what has been reported in the literature.

Porosity Measurement of Low Permeable Materials Using Gas Expansion Induced Water Intrusion Porosimetry (GEIWIP).

Project description:Porosity measurement is a key factor to identify the hydraulic performance of low permeable porous materials (e.g. rock or concrete). Porosimetry tests such as Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry (MIP), Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), or Gas Expansion (GE) are cost-prohibitive, use hazardous materials, or are incapable of accessing all inter-connected pores. An alternative Gas Expansion Induced Water Intrusion Porosimetry (GEIWIP) method was developed to measure the porosity of a low permeable porous medium using a gas/water intrusion apparatus. This method overcomes the previously mentioned porosimetry drawbacks by using distilled de-aired water (DDW) as a hazard-free liquid which is a wetting fluid to intrude the porous structure and fill the pores. As the DDW has the tendency to fill all inter-connected pores, no back-up pressure is required. This method has lower cost and needs less preparation time comparing to MIP test. Additionally, the GEIWIP set-up, the gas/water intrusion apparatus, can be moved to the field site and provide mobile measurement feasibility. The reliability of the test results was obtained by a repetitive testing process. The porosity of concrete samples with different mixtures was obtained and compared to those of MIP and NMR tests.

Tailored Gas Adsorption Properties of Electrospun Carbon Nanofibers for Gas Separation and Storage.

Project description:Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) derived from electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) were investigated with respect to their gas adsorption properties. By employing CO2 adsorption measurements, it is shown that the adsorption capacity and selectivity of the fibers can be tailored by means of the applied carbonization temperature. General pore properties of the CNFs were identified by Ar adsorption measurements, whereas CO2 adsorption measurements provided information about the ultramicroporosity, adsorption energies, and adsorption capacities. Ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST) selectivities under practically relevant conditions were determined by evaluation of single-component data for N2 and CO2 . Especially for low carbonization temperatures, the CNFs exhibit very good low-pressure adsorption performance and excellent CO2 /N2 IAST selectivities of 350 at 20?mbar and 132 at 1?bar, which are attributed to a molecular-sieve effect in very narrow slit pores. These IAST selectivities are some of the highest values for carbon materials reported in the literature so far and the highest IAST selectivities for as-prepared, non-post-treated carbon ever.

Impact of Adsorption on Gas Transport in Nanopores.

Project description:Given the complex nature of the interaction between gas and solid atoms, the development of nanoscale science and technology has engendered a need for further understanding of gas transport behavior through nanopores and more tractable models for large-scale simulations. In the present paper, we utilize molecular dynamic simulations to demonstrate the behavior of gas flow under the influence of adsorption in nano-channels consisting of illite and graphene, respectively. The results indicate that velocity oscillation exists along the cross-section of the nano-channel, and the total mass flow could be either enhanced or reduced depending on variations in adsorption under different conditions. The mechanisms can be explained by the extra average perturbation stress arising from density oscillation via the novel perturbation model for micro-scale simulation, and approximated via the novel dual-region model for macro-scale simulation, which leads to a more accurate permeability correction model for industrial applications than is currently available.

Accelerating Gas Adsorption on 3D Percolating Carbon Nanotubes.

Project description:In the field of electronic gas sensing, low-dimensional semiconductors such as single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) can offer high detection sensitivity owing to their unprecedentedly large surface-to-volume ratio. The sensitivity and responsivity can further improve by increasing their areal density. Here, an accelerated gas adsorption is demonstrated by exploiting volumetric effects via dispersion of SWCNTs into a percolating three-dimensional (3D) network in a semiconducting polymer. The resultant semiconducting composite film is evaluated as a sensing membrane in field effect transistor (FET) sensors. In order to attain reproducible characteristics of the FET sensors, a pulsed-gate-bias measurement technique is adopted to eliminate current hysteresis and drift of sensing baseline. The rate of gas adsorption follows the Langmuir-type isotherm as a function of gas concentration and scales with film thickness. This rate is up to 5 times higher in the composite than only with an SWCNT network in the transistor channel, which in turn results in a 7-fold shorter time constant of adsorption with the composite. The description of gas adsorption developed in the present work is generic for all semiconductors and the demonstrated composite with 3D percolating SWCNTs dispersed in functional polymer represents a promising new type of material for advanced gas sensors.

Intrusion of the Kuroshio into the South and East China Seas.

Project description:The northward-flowing Kuroshio often intrudes westward and modulates the water masses of the South and East China Seas. These intrusions transcend multiple scales in time and space, which we demonstrate here using various independent data sets. There are two hot spots of intrusion, one in the Luzon Strait and the other off northeast Taiwan, which occur synchronously when the upstream Kuroshio weakens during winter. Beyond seasonal time scales, the two intrusions were not synchronous during 1993-2013. While intrusions into the South China Sea echoed the Pacific Decadal Oscillation, the intrusion northeast of Taiwan decreased markedly before 2002 but regularly reached the shelf thereafter. This change was due to the influence of westward impingements of cyclonic eddies from the open ocean on the Kuroshio main stream in place of anticyclonic eddies. During 1993-2001, decreasing cyclonic eddy impingements moved the Kuroshio away from northeast Taiwan, weakening the Kuroshio intrusion onto the East China Sea shelf. Thereafter, enhanced cyclonic eddy impingement during 2002-2013 weakened the Kuroshio transport, moving it closer to the shelf and enhancing its intrusion into the East China Sea.

Predicting adsorption selectivities from pure gas isotherms for gas mixtures in metal-organic frameworks.

Project description:We perform Grand Canonical Monte Carlo simulations on a lattice of Mg2+ sites (GCMC) for adsorption of four binary A/B mixtures, CH4/N2, CO/N2, CO2/N2, and CO2/CH4, in the metal-organic framework Mg2(2,5-dioxidobenzedicarboxylate), also known as CPO-27-Mg or Mg-MOF-74. We present a mean field co-adsorption isotherm model and show that its predictions agree with the GCMC results if the same quantum chemical ab initio data are used for Gibbs free energies of adsorption at the individual sites and for lateral interaction energies between the same, A⋯A and B⋯B, and unlike, A⋯B, adsorbed molecules. We use both approaches to test the assumption underlying Ideal Adsorbed Solution Theory (IAST), namely approximating A⋯B interaction energies as the arithmetic mean of A⋯A and B⋯B interaction energies. While IAST works well for mixtures with weak lateral interactions, CH4/N2 and CO/N2, the deviations are large for mixtures with stronger lateral interactions, CO2/N2 and CO2/CH4. Motivated by the theory of London dispersion forces, we propose use of the geometric mean instead of the arithmetic mean and achieve substantial improvements. For CO2/CH4, the lateral interactions become anisotropic. To include this in the geometric mean co-adsorption model, we introduce an anisotropy factor. We propose a protocol, named co-adsorption mean field theory (CAMT), for co-adsorption selectivity prediction from known (experiment or simulation) pure component isotherms which is similar to the IAST protocol but uses the geometric mean to approximate mixed pair interaction energies and yields improved results for non-ideal mixtures.

Pore Structure Characterization of Sodium Hydroxide Activated Slag Using Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry, Nitrogen Adsorption, and Image Analysis.

Project description:The pore structure of alkali-activated slag has a significant influence on its performance. However, the literature shows insufficient studies regarding the suitability of different techniques for characterizing the pore structure and the influences of Na₂O and curing age on pore structure development. In pursuit of a better understanding, the pore structure of sodium hydroxide activated slag paste was characterized by multiple techniques, e.g., mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), nitrogen (N₂) adsorption, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image analysis. The sodium hydroxide activated slag pastes were prepared with three different contents of Na₂O (Na₂O/slag = 4, 6, and 8%) and cured for different times up to 360 days. The microstructure observation reveals that outer C⁻(N⁻)A⁻S⁻H and inner C⁻(N⁻)A⁻S⁻H grow successively around the reacting slag grains, along with crystalline reaction products which are formed in the empty coarse pore space. The increase of Na₂O content and curing age lead to a finer pore structure. The MIP measurements show that the total porosity drops about 70% within the first day, and that one peak at most, corresponding to gel pores, was identified in the differential curves of all the investigated samples from 1 to 360 days. On the contrary, only one peak, corresponding to capillary pores, was identified by SEM-image analysis. The differential curves derived from N₂ adsorption generally reveal two peaks, and the trend that the pore diameters of those two peaks vary with curing age depends on the content of Na₂O. Compared to Portland cement, sodium hydroxide activated slag has a higher pore space filling capacity (χ, Vproducts/Vslag-reacted), while the capacity decreases with increasing Na₂O content and curing age.
