Abstract341)      PDF (1990KB)(269)      
 
The zeolites of MCM-22, MCM-49 and MCM-56 which have MWW layered structure were synthesised by dynamic hydrothermal method. The structure, pore volume distribution and acid property of these samples were characterized by means of XRD, BET, NH 3-TPD and Pyridine-IR.The catalytic performance of these zeolites were experimentally compared with the model reaction of alkylation of benzene with propylene, the relationship between product distribution, pore structure and acid property was also investigated. The results show that MCM-49 have the most amount of B acid sites, whereas the L acid sites predominates in MCM-56 zeolite. These three zeolites all have good catalytic performance and similar product distribution and the conversions of propylene over them are more than 99.9%.The selectivity of isopropyl benzene(IPB) over MCM-49 zeolite is the highest. However, the amount of n-propyl benzene is the highest too. Deep alkylation of IPB tend to take place on the external surface due to the small steric effect of MCM-56, so the amount of diisopropyl benzene and tri- isopropyl benzene in MCM-56 are higher than the other two zeolites.

Abstract335)      PDF (4981KB)(289)      
 
A series of boron aluminophosphate molecular sieves (BAPO-5) were synthesized by static hydrothermally method using the gel composition n(B 2O 3)/n(Al 2O 3)/ nP 2O 5)/ n(Et3N)/ n(H 2O)=x∶y ∶1.5∶2∶240 . Based on the synthesized BAPO-5 molecular sieves, many of characterization was carried out by XRD, SEM, BET, FT-IR, MAS-NMR methods. It shows that the series of boron aluminophosphate molecular sieves with different boron contents are prepared in the[KG*4] range of 0< n(B 2O 3)/ n(Al 2O 3)<0.08. And the crystal structure of BAPO-5 molecular sieves is attributed to the AFI structure type, which is the same as AlPO 4-5. With the increase of the boron content, BET surface area and pore volume of BAPO-5 molecular sieves are also increased. This provides evidence of boron as heteroatom in the framework of BAPO-5 molecular sieves. It is observed that coordination environments of Al and P in the framework of BAPO-5 are AlO 4 and PO 4. Therefore, AlPO 4-5 framework-incorporated B atoms brings no change of coordination environments of Al and P and structure type of BAPO-5 molecular sieves. In addition, SEM images show that the synthesized BAPO-5 molecular sieves have a regular hexagonal prism morphology. 

HU Hui, WU Hui-xiong
Abstract392)      PDF (1978KB)(488)      
A new shortcut model was proposed to simulate the operation of the batch extractive distillation operations to overcome the obstacles of over-complexity and bad adaptability of rigorous model. The whole batch process is simulated as a succession of a finite number of steady states of short duration, the duration of 0.02 h was chosen to meet the terms of accuracy and calculation time requirements. The practical implementation of the novel shortcut model was discussed through the example of methanol-acetone-water and ethanol-water-glycol system. Laboratory and literature results from shortcut model were compared and the largest error was below 3% for laboratory and literature results. This model has indeed better steady state, less calculative load and adaptability. It can be conveniently used in the future to estimate and optimize batch extractive distillation in the design and product planning stages.

The application of BrØnsted acidic ionic liquids of [BMIM]HSO 4 and H 2SO 4 as catalyst in alkylating desulfurization technology of gasoline was studied. The result shows that the mixture of [BMIM] HSO 4 and H 2SO 4 has better selectivity than sulfuric acid on catalyzing the alkylation of thiophene and alkene, under the same reaction condition. The conversion rate of thiophene increases as reaction temperature increases, but when the temperature is higher than 45 ℃, hexene decreases sharply due to polymerization. The conversion rate of thiophene increases with the increasing of reaction time, it costs about 2h to meet the equilibrium of reaction between thiophene and hexane.

Abstract335)      PDF (1723KB)(300)      
A kind of Si-Al composite zeolite was synthesized by hydrothermal method and characterized by XRD, nitrogen adsorption-desorption and IR. The results of XRD show that the zeolite belongs to hexagonal symmetry, and it is a pure phase. The composited zeolite possesses both microporous and mesoporous structures base on the pore size distributions, and presents much more Bronsted and Lewis acidic sites than HZSM-5. The catalytic cracking activity of 1,3,5-triisopropylbenzene over the hierarchical zeolite is more than that over HZSM-5 due to its mesopore structure and more acid amount.

Abstract410)      PDF (1973KB)(486)      
PC/ABS alloy was prepared through melt blending process by using PC,ABS and different kinds of compatibilizing agents. The structure and mechanical properties were characterized by DSC and normal mechanical measurement methods. The results show that PC/ABS belongs to partially-compatible system, the compatibility and mechanical properties could be improved when compatibilizing agents ABS-g-MAH and PE-g-MAH were added to the blending system. The modification effect of ABS-g-MAH is better than that of PE-g-MAH. The reason is that the similar molecular structure of ABS-g-MAH and PC/ABS alloy, at the same time, the interface adhesion could be improved through ester exchange reaction between acid anhydride in ABS-g-MAH and PC.

Abstract290)      PDF (2073KB)(269)      
Batch equilibration experiment was conducted out to study the adsorptions of aniline and LAS and their interactions on Weihe riverbed sediments. The results show that, LAS inhibits to the absorption of aniline on the sediments, and so as to the inhibition of aniline on LAS adsorption on the sediments, because they compete with each other for adsorption sites on the sediments. The inhibitions are gotten increasing with rising in their concentrations, the adsorption models of LAS and aniline on the sediments are hardly affected by each other, however, varied with the changes in pH. The adsorption model of aniline obeys Henry equation under pH 5, and follows Freundlich or Langmuir equation under pH 7 or 9 respectively. The affect of aniline on the adsorption of LAS depends mainly on LAS concentration, and gets more distinct with increasing in the concentration. 

Abstract276)      PDF (5428KB)(337)      
It is quite difficult to solve the problem of mixing friction in mechanical seal has relation to coupling function on more physical quantities between spring deformation and elastic hydrodynamic lubrication. And no available business software can directly work it out, so the C language programming was used to calculate. Allowing for micropolar fluids effect, dynamics and mathematical models on mixing friction in mechanical seal were established, and the problems for the distributions of fluid film pressure in film lubrication under the different micropolar fluids parameters were solved by using finite difference method, then the solutions of pressure and spillage value were obtained. The results show that raising of micropolar fluids parameters such as coupling coefficient and characteristic length makes fluid film pressure increase, and then pressure drops and spillage decreases, which keeps seal reliability.

Abstract269)      PDF (4850KB)(456)      
Foam fluid has good property, widely used in petroleum engineering. Density of foam fluid is very important in site application. Device designing used to measure density of foam fluid was introduced under underhole situation. Method to quantitatively determine the density-pressure-temperature relation of the foam fluid was also put forward. The relations between the density of the foam fluid and the pressure and temperature were measured using the method. Experiential formulas calculating density of foam fluid were gained through regression method. The results of measurement and conventional calculation were compared. It shows that density of foam fluid increases with pressure increases, and decreases with temperature increases. The larger the ratio of gas and liquid weight in foam fluid is, the better the condensability of foam fluid is. The measured density of foam fluid is always less than that of calculated by conventional method. Difference lies in 1.45 %to 11.31%. The reason is that repellent force of surfactant ions has not been considered when calculating by conventional method. The regressed formulas have good accordance with the experimental data. The research conclusions can direct foam fluid application in oil field.

Abstract383)      PDF (2331KB)(243)      
Algorithm of making stripping schedule for multi-product pipeline available had their own defects and limitations. It could not be applied to multi-product pipeline in China directly. The new algorithm for certain multi-product pipeline was put forwards to make stripping schedule on the basis of referring to master-clock method and adopting its advantages of speeding the calculation through variable paces and being flexible and adding interface′s reaching stations to the set of control points and introducing capacity of the pipeline as a constraint, in which almost all factors considered when manually making a new schedule are involved. The algorithm can track positions of interfaces all time. The corresponding software has been developed which is being applied on three pipelines in China. The application shows that the algorithm is feasible.

Abstract254)      PDF (2955KB)(439)      
The flow and heat transfer under the constant heat flux condition of fluid′s outside the tube forced laminar flow along the tube axis in a quadrate tube-shell type heat exchanger fitted with porous metal foam in shell side was theoretically analyzed. It shows that the flow velocity distribution in the radial direction is similar to the situation of fluid′s internal turbulent flow inside a blank tube with the feature of having great gradient in a very thin layer near to the wall and more flat in the rest area. The temperature distributions of fluid and foam are more flat. The increasing of the pressure drop of the fluid with the ppi(pore per inch)number of the porous metal foam was faster than that of the Nusselt number of the convection heat transfer. The pressure drop and the Nusselt number were increased with the decreasing of the porosity of the porous metal foam.

And    applied directed edge-weight graph to describe the optimization problem of the products pipeline, and graph theory was used to analyze the problem. The candidate pump station locations were taken as the vertices and the total cost of the pipeline system between the two vertices were looked as the edge-weighted. Then algorithm recursively calling the Dijkstra algorithm was designed and analyzed to obtain N shortest paths, so the optimal alternative and the quasi-optimal alternatives were obtained at the same time, these alternatives can be used to compare by the designer. Moreover, the algorithm was tested by a real example; it can meet the need of real application. Applied this method can avoid adjustment the locations of the pump station, and more fit the need of the engineering.

Numerical Analysis on the Three-Phase Flow With Condensation of CH 4, H 2O and n-C 9H 20
FEI Ji-You, LI Yu, LI Liang
Abstract215)      PDF (2974KB)(228)      
A numerical model was developed to simulate the three-phase flow with condensation of the mixture of methane (CH 4), water vapor (H 2O) and nonane (n-C 9H 20). Using this model the condensing flow of methane with saturated water vapor and nonane vapor in a convergent-divergent nozzle were investigated. The result shows that in this three-phase flow, the nucleation position of nonane vapor is 0.05 m downstream of that of water vapor, which is a result of the different thermo-physical properties of H 2O and n-C 9H 20. With the inlet pressure rises, the supercooling leading to nucleation, the nucleation rate, the number of liquid droplets and the mass fraction of liquid phase decrease for both water vapor and nonane vapor. The result also indicates that in the three-phase flow, the latent heat released during the condensation processes of water vapor and nonane vapor changes each other's supercooling. As a result the condensation processes of water vapor and nonane vapor are weakened.

Particle Velocity Distribution in the Bubbling Fluidized Bed
YANG Kuan-li, WANG Qi-cheng, ZHANG Kai,DAI Wei-di,JIANG Jian-chun
Abstract379)      PDF (3355KB)(369)      
 
Radial velocity distributions of two kinds of glass beads, belonging to Geldart type B classification, were investigated at different axial sections in the bubbling fluidized bed with an inner diameter of 0.185 m under different superficial gas velocities. Local particle velocities were measured by using the PV-5A fiber-optical probe. The experimental results indicate that the radial distribution of particle velocities in the bed bottom zone is irregular, where the design of the distributor is dominated. When the axial section is far from the distributor, the particle velocities are higher in the center than those near the wall within the bed, which becomes obvious with increasing superficial gas velocity. Meanwhile, there exists a transitional zone between the above two zones, where the effect of the distributor tends to be weakened. This leads that the radial distribution of particle velocities is regular. Moreover, the amplitude of particle velocity at the same axial position changes sharply with an increase of superficial gas velocity.

Abstract266)      PDF (1985KB)(275)      
In order to improve the performance of macromolecule polymer demulsifier and enlarge the range of application of nano-material, the nano-Al 2O 3 and macromolecule polyether demulsifier TA1031 were grafted by sol-gel method with Al 2(SO 4) 3 and NH 3·H 2O. The Nanometer modified demulsifier was analyzed by FTIR, SEM, rotational viscometer and interfacial tensionmeter. The results show that applying nano-Al 2O 3 to crude oil polymer demulsifier would greatly improve the performance of the original demulsifier. When the mass ratio of aluminium oxide and TA1031 was 1∶10, the performance of the nanometer modified demulsifier is better, and the ratio of demulsification would be improved about 20%~25%. The time of demulification and dewatering would be greatly shorten, and the demusification mechanism and formation mechanisms of nanometer modified demulsifier was preliminary analysised.
