Abstract Generally, adding a certain amount of an additive to pulverized coal can promote its combustion performance. In this paper, the effect of CaO on the combustion characteristics and kinetic behavior of semi-coke was studied by thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. The results show that adding proper amount of CaO can reduce the ignition temperature of semi-coke and increase the combustion rate of semi-coke; with the increase in CaO content, the combustion rate of semi-coke increases first and then decreases, and the results of TG analysis showed that optimal addition amount of CaO is 2 wt%. The apparent activation energy of CaO with different addition amounts of CaO was calculated by Coats–Redfern integration method. The apparent activation energy of semi-coke in the combustion reaction increases first and then decreases with the increase in CaO addition. The apparent activation energies of different samples at different conversion rates were calculated by Flynn–Wall–Ozawa integral method. It was found that the apparent activation energies of semi-coke during combustion reaction decreased with the increase in conversion.

P32 release from dog erythrocytes previously incubated with radioactive inorganic phosphate was investigated. Under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions, apparent activation energies of similar magnitude, 25,000 cals/mole, were obtained. However, P32 release was lower in the absence of oxygen and greater in the presence of iodoacetate. These results suggest that the cellular pool from which P32 is released is accessible to glycolytic enzymes and that the rate of P32 release is related in some manner to the orthophosphate concentration in the precursor pool.

Reactions of 1-butene with nitric oxide from 623 to 723 K and with oxygen from 433 to 573 K have been studied in a differential flow system over manganese(III) oxide. Nitrous oxide was formed in the reaction of the hydrocarbon with nitric oxide along with products of complete combustion. The apparent activation energies were respectively 69 ± 4, 78 ± 4, and 30 ± 4 kJ mol−1 for nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and nitrous oxide reaction rates. The corresponding pre-exponential factors were 1.72 × 10−1 and 1.16 mol0.5 L−0.5 m2 g−1, and 1.99 × 10−2 mol−0.35 L0.35 m2 g−1. In the reaction with oxygen, apparent activation energies of 183 ± 4, 523 to 503 K, and 88 ± 4 kJ mol−1, 503 to 433 K, were determined with pre-exponential factors 1.74 × 1015 and 2.94 × 105 mol0.3 m−2 g−1. During catalysis the oxide underwent a partial phase change from α to γ in both reactions. Additionally, nitrate species were present on the surface after oxidation with nitric oxide. Kinetic expressions have been derived and mechanisms proposed for both reactions which may occur in emission control systems requiring the removal of NOx and unburned hydrocarbons.

AbstractThe interaction of chrysotile and crocidolite with water has been investigated in an attempt to identify the factors affecting the rate and the degree of dissolution of asbestos fibres within groundwater systems at landfill sites. Dissolution experiments were used to investigate rate laws and to obtain apparent activation energies for the dissolution of the two minerals. The activation energies related to transport-controlled processes, but as the overall dissolution occurred so slowly it was unlikely to be controlled by processes with such low activation energies. Congruent dissolution of both minerals tended to increase with temperature and time, suggesting that in the long-term environmental situation, congruent dissolution of these two asbestos minerals would occur. However these experiments show that, as the reaction was so slow, there is little likelihood of reduction of the asbestos pollution hazard by the complete dissolution of fibres on prolonged contact with natural waters.
