Co-combusting biomass with sewage sludge can effectively inhibit the release of alkali metals. In addition to calcium phosphates, AlPO 4 and FePO 4 are typical phosphates in fresh sludge, resulting from phosphorus removal process compliant discharge. However, the inhibitory effect of AlPO 4 and FePO 4 on potassium release have rarely been studied. This oversight may stem from the absence of AlPO 4 and FePO 4 in high-temperature ash, which instead indicates their preferred reactivity. Thus, we proposed the hypothesis regarding whether the fixation effect of AlPO 4 and FePO 4 on potassium occurs earlier than that of calcium phosphate. This research investigated the interactions and inhibitory effects of these phosphates on potassium release during the co-combustion. In this simplified system using model compounds, the conversion of volatile potassium salts was quantitively assessed by measuring the content of produced water-soluble K-phosphates. The interaction mechanism has been discussed with multiple characterization methods. The results demonstrate a significant inhibitory effect of phosphates on KOH, KNO 3 and K 2 CO 3 , with the effectiveness ranking as follows: AlPO 4 > FePO 4 > Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 . Over 80 % of potassium remained as soluble K-phosphates in samples treated with AlPO 4 or FePO 4 at 1000 ℃. In contrast, none of the three additives exhibited a significant inhibitory effect on KCl and K 2 SO 4 . However, the priority of the reactions converting KOH, KNO 3 and K 2 CO 3 into K-phosphates by using AlPO 4 and FePO 4 , along with the stability of the produced phosphates, suggests a promising approach to enhance the formation of more potassium phosphate while reducing KCl—the most problematic volatile component—thereby effectively mitigating potassium release.

The pyrolysis of metal soaps to produce hydrocarbon rich fuel has been studied extensively. However, the combined effects of microwave radiation and metal ion types on hydrocarbon production have not been addressed. In this study, the microwave and conventional pyrolysis experiments were conducted on five metal soaps (Li soap, Na soap, K soap, Ca soap, Mg soap). The results demonstrated that the metal ions at the carboxyl end of the soap enhanced the polarity of the reactants, leading to a rapid increase in temperature under microwave conditions. With the ion radius increasing, the heating rate increased gradually. Compared with conventional pyrolysis, microwave pyrolysis exhibited a more rapid heating rate, a higher degree of carbon chain fracture, and a greater abundance of small olefin compounds, which promoted aromatization reaction and the release of CO, H 2 and CH 4 . In addition, the composition of the pyrolysis products derived from different metal soaps is affected by the characteristics of metal ions. As the radius of metal ions increased, the oxygen content in the liquid products decreased gradually, while the carbon content increased. The strengthening effect of microwave was further analyzed. With the increase in the radius of metal ions, the strengthening effect of microwaves on olefins formation was gradually weakened, while the inhibiting effect on alkanes formation was gradually enhanced. The structure of carboxylate network is affected by the radius of metal ions, which results in the regular change of the strengthening effect of microwave on olefins and other products. This study is highly significant in guiding the pyrolysis of soapstock waste to prepare olefins and alkanes with high efficiency and low energy consumption.

The thermal conductivity of ammonium sulfate + water, ammonium nitrate + water, and ammonium sulfate + ammonium nitrate + water is of great significance in the national defense industry and military engineering for manufacturing of various energetic chemicals. The measurements, covering a temperature range from (278.15 to 333.15) K, have been performed by a transient hot-wire technique over a wide range of concentrations. The densities of ternary aqueous solutions of ammonium sulfate + ammonium nitrate are also presented at the same temperature covering different portions of ammonium sulfate and ammonium nitrate. The thermal conductivities of binary aqueous solutions of ammonium salts are correlated by polynomial functions in terms of temperature and weight fraction for the purpose of interpolation. The Aseyev equation in terms of weight fraction is also used to represent the thermal conductivities of ternary mixtures of these compounds. The ideal mixing rule of Young has been successfully applied to correlate the ternary densities of aqueous ammonium sulfate + ammonium nitrate solutions based on relevant binary solution properties. The agreement between the correlation and the experimental data is pretty good.

This study utilized beeswax and k-carrageenan as gelling agents to prepare oleogels and hydrogels, respectively. The amalgamation of the two gels in frozen water led to the formation of bigels. With the goal to improve the consistency and long-lasting nature of the bigel, starch was added to the mixture. A study was then done to evaluate how the addition of starch affected the thermal, mechanical, and rheological properties, as well as the capacity of the bigel to withstand freeze-thaw resilience. The results indicated that the bigel without starch exhibited a melting temperature comparable to that of the oleogel. However, the inclusion of starch resulted in a decrease in the melting temperature to 44.88 °C, accompanied by a wider endothermic peak. The enthalpy of the bigel with additional starch dramatically increased to 42.227 J/g. The addition of starch significantly improved the mechanical characteristics of the bigel, resulting in an average increase in hardness of 32.3% and Young's modulus of 54.2%. Furthermore, the bigel demonstrated exceptional freeze-thaw stability, exhibiting an average enhancement of around 5% when compared to the equivalent without starch. The use of hydrogel enhanced the thermal durability of the bigel, preventing structural collapse when the ambient temperature rose. This study proposes a method to produce starch bigels that possess excellent freeze-thaw stability and rheological properties.

A rechargeable aqueous hybrid ion alkaline battery, using a proton and a potassium ion as charge carriers for the anode and cathode, respectively, is proposed in this study by using well-developed potassium nickel hexacyanoferrate as the cathode material and mesoporous carbon sheets as the anode material, respectively. The constructed battery operates in a concentrated KOH solution, in which the energy storage mechanism for potassium nickel hexacyanoferrate involves the redox reaction of Fe2+/Fe3+ associated with potassium ion insertion/extraction and the redox reaction of Ni(OH)2/NiOOH. The mechanism for the carbon anode is electrochemical hydrogen storage. The cathode made of potassium nickel hexacyanoferrate exhibits both an ultrahigh capacity of 232.7 mAh g–1 under 100 mA g–1 and a consistent performance of 214 mAh g–1 at 2000 mA g–1 (with a capacity retention of 92.8% after 200 cycles). The mesoporous carbon sheet anode exhibits a capacity of 87.6 mAh·g–1 at 100 mA g–1 with a good rate and cyclic performance. The full cell provides an operational voltage of 1.55 V, a capacity of 93.6 mAh g–1 at 100 mA g–1, and 82.4% capacity retention after 1000 cycles at 2000 mA g–1 along with a low self-discharge rate. The investigation and discussion about the energy storage mechanisms for both electrode materials are also provided.

Isooctane is an ideal gasoline component with a high octane number and low volatility. However, there is a lack of research on the thermal properties of isooctane, especially near the critical point. This work uses dynamic light scattering to measure the thermal diffusivity of isooctane in the temperature range of (298.15–583.15) K, along 8 isobaric lines p = (0.1, 2.0, 2.5, 2.7, 3.0, 3.5, 5.0, 7.5) MPa, and analyzes the trend of thermal diffusivity with temperature and pressure. The average relative combined expanded uncertainty of the thermal diffusivity is 0.0214. Meanwhile, the experimental data were compared with the calculated values from thermal conductivity, and the absolute average values of the relative deviation and maximum deviation were 2.88 and 8.22%, respectively.

Developing efficient, stable adsorbents for post-combustion CO 2 capture remains challenging, owing to competitive H 2 O adsorption, active component loss, and inactive byproduct formation. In this work, we report a one-step pyrolysis-activation strategy synthesizing herb-residue biochar co-anchored with K 2 CO 3 and K 2 FeO 4 (HPPF), enabling stable CO 2 capture under humid conditions via synergistic K Fe interactions. Compared with conventional post-impregnation methods, this approach enhances microporosity through molten-salt activation and reduces K vaporization by 56 % via Fe-O-K interfacial bonding, while disrupts K Ca interactions to prevent K 2 Ca(CO 3 ) 2 formation. The HPPF adsorbent exhibits a superior CO 2 capacity of 2.20 mmol g −1 at 60 °C under humid conditions (20 % CO 2 ), outperforming K 2 CO 3 -loaded biochar (HPC, 1.57 mmol g −1 ) and demonstrating a balanced H 2 O/CO 2 co-adsorption ratio (0.96, compared with 3.21 for HPC). In situ FTIR/XRD analyses reveal Fe accelerats the direct conversion from K 2 CO 3 to KHCO 3 , without formation of the hydrated intermediates. Furthermore, multi-model kinetic fitting confirmed Fe’s dual role in enhancing surface reactivity and modifying diffusion behavior. HPPF retained 99.1 % of its initial capacity after over nine adsorption-desorption cycles, demonstrating exceptional structural reversibility and cyclic durability. The estimated raw material cost (~$3.79 per kg CO 2 ) further supports its practical viability for scalable, low-cost carbon capture. This stable cycling capability of HPPF allows its incorporation into delayed feedback carbon cycles. In such systems, biochar accumulated during pyrolysis batch processes can progressively offset the CO 2 emissions generated by the biomass, offering a viable route for carbon-negative utilization.

The information obtained from crystallized complexes of the Na + ,K + -ATPase with cardiotonic steroids (CTS) is not sufficient to explain differences in the inhibitory properties of CTS such as stereoselectivity of CTS binding or effect of glycosylation on the preference to enzyme isoforms. The uncertainty is related to the spatial organization of the hydrophilic cavity at the entrance of the CTS-binding site. Therefore, there is a need to supplement the crystallographic description with data obtained in aqueous solution, where molecules have significant degree of flexibility. This work addresses the applicability of the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) method for the purpose. We have designed and synthesized spin-labeled compounds based on the cinobufagin steroid core. The length of the spacer arms between the steroid core and the nitroxide group determines the position of the reporting group (N-O) confined to the binding site. High affinity to Na + ,K + -ATPase is inferred from their ability to inhibit enzymatic activity. The differences between the EPR spectra in the absence and presence of high ouabain concentrations identify the signature peaks originating from the fraction of the spin labels bound within the ouabain site. The degree of perturbations of the EPR spectra depends on the length of the spacer arm. Docking of the compounds into the CTS site suggests which elements of the protein structure might be responsible for interference with the spin label (e.g., steric clashes or immobilization). Thus, the method is suitable for gathering information on the cavity leading to the CTS-binding site in Na + ,K + -ATPase in all conformations with high affinity to CTS .

Metal cluster compounds have garnered renewed interest in the search for novel superconductors and topological semimetals owing to structural instabilities of metal-cluster geometries and broken symmetries. Here we synthesized needle-like crystals of the V-cluster-based quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) materials AV3Q3Oδ (A = K, Rb, Cs, Q = Se, Te) which can also be viewed as being composed of parallel nanowires. We examine how changes in their average and local structure control their electronic properties. All compounds crystallize in the TlFe3Te3-type structure (P63/m space group) with infinite (V3Q3)− double-walled columnar chains separated by A+ cations. Our single-crystal and synchrotron powder diffraction studies indicate oxygen atoms partially occupy the center site of the V6 octahedral metal cluster cages in KV3Te3O0.33, RbV3Te3O0.32, and CsV3Te3O0.35, whereas KV3Se3 is structurally oxygen-free. Our synchrotron X-ray pair distribution function (PDF) analyses indicate that the oxygen-free V6 cluster octahedra in KV3Se3 are highly distorted perpendicular to the chain direction even at room temperature, reducing the symmetry of the average structure from hexagonal P63/m to monoclinic P21/m. Our theoretical calculation supports this P21/m distortion and suggests the structure further distorts to P21 or P21/c at lower temperatures. In contrast, the oxygen-centered V-cluster in KV3Te3O0.33 exhibits a V3-triangle-trimerization along the chain direction. This feature is discernible from the local PDF and is consistent with lattice dynamical calculations based on density functional theory. Resistivity measurements indicate that KV3Se3 exhibits metallic behavior, whereas a dramatic metal–semiconductor–metal transition emerges in KV3Te3O0.33, RbV3Te3O0.32, and CsV3Te3O0.35 because of oxygen disorder and changes in local structure captured from our electronic structure analyses of the Fermi surface. Our investigation of the AV3Q3Oδ family demonstrates the importance of understanding local changes in structure driven by electronic instabilities, which can guide the search for new quantum materials in other low-dimensional cluster-compound materials.

In this paper, the mole fraction solubility of 2-hydrazino-4-methylbenzothiazole (MHB) in acetone, toluene, methanol, ethanol, water, ethyl acetate, n-propanol, isopropanol, 1-butanol, and methanol/ethanol/n-propanol/acetone + water was determined by the isothermal saturation method at 273.15 to 318.15 K under 101.2 kPa. Meanwhile, high-performance liquid chromatography was used to detect the solubility of MHB. The mole fraction of MHB increased with the increase of temperature in monosolvents, and the composition of solvent mixtures also played a decisive role in the solubility of MHB in mixed systems. Then, four models for five monosolvents (Apelblat, van’t Hoff, λh, NRTL, and the Jouyban model) and three models for mixed solvents [Jouyban–Acree (J–A), van’t Hoff–Jouyban–Acree (V–J–A), and modified Apelblat–Jouyban–Acree (A–J–A) model] were utilized to correlate the mole fraction of MHB. The maximum deviations [relative average deviation (RAD) and root-mean-square deviation (RMSD)] between the experimental data and the solubility data calculated by the models for monosolvents were 7.13% and 6.11 × 10–4 (from the Jouyban model in pure ethyl acetate), respectively. The maximum RAD and RMSD for mixed systems were 1.58% (from the A–J–A model in methanol + water) and 1.35 × 10–4 (from the J–A and A–J–A models in acetone + water), respectively.

To evaluate the feasibility of extraction of 1-methylimidazole from its low-concentration aqueous solution by ionic liquids, the liquid–liquid equilibrium of the ternary system of water + 1-methylimidazole + ionic liquid ([Hmim][PF6], [Omim][PF6], or [Omim][BF4]) was determined at 303.15 K and atmospheric pressure. The distribution coefficient and selectivity were calculated in accordance with the experimental results. The effects of the anion and cation of ionic liquids on the separation ability were discussed. The results indicated that the extraction capacity increased with increasing cationic carbon chain length, and the change of anions significantly affected the distribution coefficient and selectivity. As expected, the three ionic liquids were feasible as extractants for separating 1-methylimidazole from water. It also indicated that [Omim][PF6] was a more suitable extractant than [Hmim][PF6] and [Omim][BF4] for the extraction. The highest distribution coefficient and selectivity of [Omim][PF6] could reach 1.71 and 111.92, respectively, indicating [Omim][PF6] as a good choice for extracting 1-methylimidazole from water. In addition, the non-random two-liquid model was employed to successfully correlate the experimental data with a root-mean-square deviation of less than 0.0188. Moreover, a GUI-MATLAB tool was used to verify the consistency of the correlated parameters.
