Summary: The limiting and driving roles of Fe(II) in As(III) oxidation were systematically studied in this research. It was found that the oxidation efficiency of As(III) increased with the increase of Fe/As molar ratio, but decreased with the increase of pH and air flow rate. Fe(II) oxidation rate increased with the increase of pH and air flow rate, and the ROS generated by Fenton-like reaction of Fe(II) promoted As(III) oxidation.

Summary: This study assesses the impact of wine compositional factors, other than amino acids and Fe, on the accumulation of Strecker aldehydes (SA) during oxidation. The results show that white and rosé wines have lower SA accumulation compared to red wines. The observed differences can be attributed to pH, oxidation time, and native levels of SA. The pH value has a particularly strong influence on the accumulation of phenylacetaldehyde and methional. The study suggests that pH plays an important role in the accumulation of SA during wine oxidation.

Summary: This study investigates the catalytic activity of MCe70 torus family and reveals the influence of the interfacial unit on catalytic performance. CuCe70 catalyst shows a lower reduction temperature and faster formation of Ce3+ compared to CeCe70. In situ DRIFTS indicates the presence of CO bridging sites in CuCe70. Isothermal CO adsorption measurements demonstrate a higher CO uptake by CuCe70. Calculations suggest that the presence of Cu at the linkage site decreases the energetics of oxygen defect formation. Therefore, atomic-level changes in the interfacial unit can tune the catalytic activity of the MCe70 family.

Summary: The efficiency of fuel cell operation at high power strongly affects the total cost of ownership of fuel cell vehicles. Gas transport resistance at the cathode strongly suppresses efficiency during high-power operation. A method is proposed to identify the RF-dependent and RF-independent resistances separately using a single sample. The separate resistances show the ionomer/Pt interfacial resistance to be dominant in the catalyst layer.

Summary: This study further investigated the mechanism of a precision grading warning method for coal seams susceptible to spontaneous combustion. Thermogravimetric analysis was conducted on three different metamorphic grades of Jurassic coal. The variations in the TG/DTG curves were compared to determine the kinetic model and kinetic compensation effect. The results showed similar trends in the TG and DTG curves for the three coal samples at different heating rates. The most probable mechanism function and significant kinetic compensation effect were identified in the low-temperature coal oxidation stage. Despite the difference in metamorphic grade, the reaction process and rate-determining step were the same for all three samples.

Summary: Non-conventional amines are being researched worldwide to overcome the limitations of traditional amines like MEA and MDEA. Adequate process and thermodynamic models are crucial for understanding the applicability and performance of these amines in CO2 absorption, but studies on process modeling for these amines are limited. This study used rate-based modeling and Deshmukh-Mather method to model CO2 absorption by DETA solution in a packed column, validated the model with experimental data, and conducted a sensitivity analysis of mass transfer correlations. The study also compared the CO2 absorption efficiency of DETA solution with an ionic solvent [bmim]-[PF6] and highlighted the importance of finding optimum operational parameters for maximum absorption efficiency.

Summary: The utilization of smart water in EOR operations has gained attention, but more research is needed to understand the complex mechanisms involved. This study investigated the interfacial tension between smart water and crude oil, considering factors such as salt, pH, asphaltene type, and aged smart water. The results revealed that the hydration of ions in smart water plays a key role in its efficacy, with acidic and basic asphaltene acting as intrinsic surfactants. The pH also influenced the interfacial tension, and the aged smart water's interaction with crude oil depended on asphaltene type, salt, and salinity.
