In order to address the issue of spontaneous combustion in coal mines during the mining process, we have proposed a novel plastogel which can prevent and control fires in coal mines. The novel plastogel was prepared by introducing a polymer plasticizer into the conventional water glass gel (water glass/coagulant/bentonite system). The effect of different concentrations of components on the properties of plastogel was analyzed by testing the gelation time and water retention of the plastogel. The Infrared spectroscopy results indicate that plastogel can effectively inhibit the oxidation of methylene in the coal body. The SEM results illustrated that the surface morphology of the plastogel and conventional water glass gels were significantly different. The compactness and smoothness of the plastogel were significantly enhanced after the addition of plasticizer. The results of the on-site application of plastogel in the withdrawal of 1308 working face of Shandong Longyun Coal Industry Co., Ltd. suggest that the plastogel effectively inhibited the oxidation of the crushed coal body, significantly reduced the temperature of coal body, and ensured a safe withdrawal of rack on the working face. The formulated plastogel had distinct practical advantages and is proposed as an ideal fire prevention and control material.

Effect of incorporated hybrid MIL-53(Al) and MWCNT into PES membrane for CO2/CH4 and CO2/N2 separation

Mohammad Saeid Rostami, Mohammad Mehdi Khodaei

Summary: In this study, a hybrid structure, MIL-53(Al)@MWCNT, was synthesized by combining MIL-53(Al) particles and -COOH functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT). The hybrid structure was then embedded in a polyethersulfone (PES) polymer matrix to prepare a mixed matrix membrane (MMM) for CO2/CH4 and CO2/N2 separation. The addition of MWCNTs prevented MIL-53(Al) aggregation, improved membrane mechanical properties, and enhanced gas separation efficiency.

Comparison of CO2 absorption in DETA solution and [bmim]-[PF6] using thermodynamic and process modelling

Morteza Afkhamipour, Ebad Seifi, Arash Esmaeili, Mohammad Shamsi, Tohid N. Borhani

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.

Interfacial tension of smart water and various crude oils

Arastoo Abdi, Mohamad Awarke, M. Reza Malayeri, Masoud Riazi

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.

Summary: In this study, cobalt-based metal-organic frameworks (Co-based MOFs) were used as supports and co-catalysts to confine the NHPI catalyst, solving the leaching issue. The NHPI@Co-MOF with carboxyl groups exhibited stronger acidity and facilitated the generation of active oxygen radicals O2•, resulting in enhanced catalytic activity. This research provides valuable insights into the selection of suitable organic linkers and broadens the research horizon of MOF hybrids in efficient oxidative desulfurization (ODS) applications.

Zonghui Liu, Zhongze Zhang, Yali Zhou, Ziling Wang, Mingyang Du, Zhe Wen, Bing Yan, Qingxiang Ma, Na Liu, Bing Xue

Summary: In this study, high-performance solid catalysts based on phosphotungstic acid (HPW) supported on Zr-SBA-15 were synthesized and evaluated for the one-pot conversion of furfural (FUR) to γ-valerolactone (GVL). The catalysts were characterized using various techniques, and the ratio of HPW and Zr was found to significantly affect the selectivity of GVL. The HPW/Zr-SBA-15 (2-4-15) catalyst exhibited the highest GVL yield (83%) under optimized reaction conditions, and it was determined that a balance between Bronsted acid sites (BAS) and Lewis acid sites (LAS) was crucial for achieving higher catalytic performance. The reaction parameters and catalyst stability were also investigated.
