RESUMEN
To address the issue of roadway support failure in narrow coal pillars under dual-lane layout, this study takes the 4309 working face of Changping Coal Mine as the engineering background and employs theoretical calculations, numerical simulations, and on-site monitoring to investigate the instability mechanisms of narrow coal pillars under dual-lane conditions and to optimize technical solutions. The results indicate that the internal stress distribution within the coal pillar is influenced by the advanced support stress, and as the working face advances, the gradually increasing advanced support pressure causes the vertical stress peak within the coal pillar to shift away from the goaf area. Computational analysis reveals that the vertical stress in the top region of a 6 m narrow coal pillar is 38% higher than that in the bottom region, with an average stress of 16 MPa in the coal pillar. The asymmetric high-level stress concentration within the coal pillar significantly affects its stability. A UDEC (Universal Distinct Element Code) model was established to compare four simulation schemes with cut-off angles of 0°, 5°, 10°, and 15°. Based on the analysis of damage parameters and fracture distribution in the narrow coal pillar roadway, it was concluded that the stability is best when the cut-off angle is 10°. The dense drilling cut-off unloading technology was applied to the 4309 working face of the Changping Mine based on the aforementioned research. On-site monitoring results show that the relative deformation of the roof and bottom plates and the two sides of the test section were controlled within 267 mm and 198 mm, respectively, effectively resolving the deformation and instability issues of the narrow coal pillars.
RESUMEN
The solvent deasphalting (SDA) process is widely recognized as a significant technology in processing inferior oil. However, de-oiled asphaltene (DOA), which accounts for about 30% of feedstocks, is not well utilized in conventional processing methods to date. Considering its complicated structure and high heteroatom and metal contents, DOA is suitable for preparing amorphous carbon. Herein, we obtained amorphous carbon from inferior de-oiled asphaltene through direct carbonization of a mixture of DOA and Fe2O3 and revealed the mechanism of iron oxide in retarding graphitization to increase the disordered structure content. After the addition of Fe2O3, XRD results showed that the content of amorphous carbon increased from 25.57% to 59.48%, and a higher defect degree could also be observed in Raman spectra, thus resulting in better electrochemical performance in Na-ion half-cells. As a coke core, Fe2O3 could accelerate the polycondensation of asphaltene molecules; meanwhile, oxygen species derived from Fe2O3 could capture excess H free radicals in the initial pyrolysis stage, which inhibited the formation of planar polycyclic aromatic molecules and weakened π-π interactions. Moreover, O atoms could embed into the carbon skeleton by reacting with DOA at higher temperatures, which could further twist and break the intact carbon layer. Both of the factors enhanced the proportion of amorphous carbon. This work not only provides a new understanding of controlling the carbonization process, but it also promotes the development of the SDA process.
RESUMEN
Hydrodesulfurization (HDS) is an important process for the production of clean fuel oil, and the development of a new environmentally friendly, low-cost sulfided catalyst is key research in hydrogenation technology. Herein, commercial bulk MoS2 and NiCO3·2NiOH2·4H2O were first hydrothermally treated and then calcined in a H2 or N2 atmosphere to obtain Ni-MoS2 HDS catalysts with different structures. Mechanisms of hydrothermal treatment and calcination on Ni-MoS2 catalyst structures were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The catalytic performance of Ni-MoS2 catalysts was evaluated by the HDS reaction of dibenzothiophene (DBT) on a fixed bed reactor, and the structure-activity relationship between the structures of the Ni-MoS2 catalyst and the HDS of DBT was discussed. The results showed that the lateral size, the number of stacked layers, and the S/Mo atomic ratio of MoS2 in the catalyst decreased and then increased with the increase of the hydrothermal treatment temperature, reaching the minimum at the hydrothermal treatment temperature of 150 °C, i.e., the lateral size of MoS2 in the catalyst was 20-36 nm, the number of stacked layers of MoS2 was 5.4, and the S/Mo ratio in the catalyst was 1.80. In addition, the effects of different calcination temperatures and calcination atmospheres on the catalyst structures were investigated at the optimum hydrothermal treatment temperature. The Ni-Mo-S and NixSy ratios of the catalysts increased and then decreased with the increasing calcination temperature under a H2 atmosphere, reaching a maximum at a calcination temperature of 400 °C. Therefore, DBT exhibited the best HDS activity over the H-NiMo-150-400 catalyst, and the desulfurization rate of DBT reached 94.7% at a reaction temperature of 320 °C.
RESUMEN
Graphite is nowadays commonly used as the main component of anode materials of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). It is essential to deeply investigate the fundamentals of artificial graphite to obtain excellent anode, especially crystal structure and electronic properties. In this report, a series of graphite with different crystal structure were synthesized and used for anodes of LIBs. Meanwhile, a concise method is designed to evaluate qualitatively the conductivity of lithium ion (σLi) and a profound mechanism of lithium storage was revealed in terms of solid state theory. The conductivity analysis demonstrates that the graphite with longer crystal plane and lower stacking layers possesses higher conductivity of electron (σe). On the other hand, lower initial charge/discharge voltage indicates the graphite with lower La and higher Lc holds higher conductivity of lithium ion (σLi). According to the solid state theory, graphite is considered to be a semi-conductor with zero activation energy, while the lithium intercalated graphite is like a conductor. The conductivity of graphite mainly depends on the σe, while the conductivity of lithium intercalated graphite can be determined by the summation of σe and σLi. In lower charge/discharge rate, Li+ have enough time to insert into the graphitic layer, making the special capacity of graphite primarily determined by σe. However, with the increase of charge/discharge rate, Li+ insertion/extraction will become more difficult, making σLi become the mainly factor of the graphite special capacity. Therefore, the graphite with longer crystal plane and lower stacking layers owns higher specific capacity under slow charge/discharge rate, the graphite with shorter crystal plane and higher stacking layers shows relatively lower specific capacity under rapid charge/discharge rate. These results provide important insights into the design and improvement of graphite's electrochemical performance.
RESUMEN
Because of the deficiencies in safety and economy of the single hydraulic prop passive advanced support, the grouting anchor cable active advanced support technology is proposed with the Changping Coal Mine 53,081 roadway as the engineering background. By using a combination of theoretical analysis, laboratory tests, numerical simulation, and field tests, the influence of different grouting parameters on the diffusion law of grout is studied. Considering the effect of the stress field on grout migration, a grout seepage-stress coupling model is established. Grouting material ratio tests are carried out and grout parameters are tested. The grouting part of the advanced grouting anchor cable is modeled and solved using the COMSOL Multiphysics numerical software. The results show that the grouting material selected is Portland cement 42.5 and water glass double liquid grout, with a slurry ratio of 15% ACZ-1 type additive and 4% water glass content, and a water-cement ratio of 0.6. The grouting pressure for the 53,081 roadway grouting anchor cable advanced support is 5 MPa, the grouting time is 6 min, and the grouting anchor cable spacing is 2000 mm × 1000 mm. The engineering application shows that the maximum roof subsidence is 180 mm, the maximum separation value at a depth of 9 m is 24 mm, and the maximum separation value at a depth of 3 m is 90 mm. The research results have achieved effective advanced support for the 53,081 roadway, replacing the single hydraulic prop, and provided a theoretical basis for the subsequent design of advanced support parameters for mining roadways.
RESUMEN
A simple but efficient strategy to improve the ability of adsorptive denitrogenation (ADN) of MIL-101(M101) was studied by the in situ encapsulation of phosphomolybdic acid (PMA) and the subsequent purification of the as-synthesized product by the NH4F solution. After the NH4F treatment, the vast majority of PMA was removed, loss of organic ligand (BDC) was observed, and the fluorination of the hydroxyl group in the M101 structure occurred. The ADN activities of the Cr-MOF matrix composites before and after fluorination were studied in detail. The rest of PMA interacts strongly with M101 and assists the ADN activity. Coordination unsaturated metal sites (CUS) in M101 are formed after fluorination and also contribute to ADN activity. Further, fluoride anions replace most of the hydroxide groups in M101, which can promote the ADN of quinoline (QUI) and indole (IND) through an acid-base interaction and N-atom coordination with the CUS in M101. P-M101-F 5% exhibits the highest adsorptive capacity and excellent regeneration ability. Special emphasis in this work is placed on structure modulation (including PMA doping, CUS creation, and fluorination) of M101 for enhancing ADN activity, which provides a useful scaffold for future research in the rational design of MOF-based ADN catalysts.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the common neurological disorders in young adults, which affects the central nervous system myelin or oligodendrocytes and results in disability. This study aimed to identify the key miRNAs in blood of patients in MS for better understanding the underlying mechanisms of MS. METHODS: The publicly available Gene Expression Omnibus data-sets of MS were performed to integrated analysis. miRNA expression and mRNA expression were analyzed in whole blood samples from patients with MS and healthy controls by microarray analysis, Gene Ontology enrichment analyses, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analyses, construction of miRNA-mRNA interaction network, and quantitative real-time polymerase reaction. RESULTS: In patients with MS, microarray analysis identified 45 significantly dysregulated miRNAs and 621 significantly dysregulated mRNAs. 1165 negative correlation pairs of miRNA-mRNA were predicted and used to construct the interaction network. hsa-miR-30a, hsa-miR-93, hsa-miR-20b, and hsa-miR-20a occurred as central hubs regulating 87, 38, 34, and 34 genes. Dysregulated mRNAs were significantly enriched in ribosome, tuberculosis, and pathways in cancer. The verification of qRT-PCR displayed that hsa-miR-328-3p was significantly up-regulated in MS and its target genes RAC2 had the down-regulated tendency in MS. hsa-miR-20a-5p had the up-regulated tendency and the corresponding target gene EIF4EBP2 had the down-regulated tendency in MS compared to healthy controls. DISCUSSION: hsa-miR-30a, hsa-miR-93, hsa-miR-20b, and hsa-miR-20a might be the key participant in the pathophysiology of MS involved in signaling pathways including ribosome, tuberculosis, and pathways in cancer.
