Thermal Taste

Ethanol is a complex stimulus that elicits multiple gustatory and chemesthetic sensations. Alcoholic beverages also contain other tastants that impact flavour. Here, we sought to characterize the binary interactions between ethanol and four stimuli representing the dominant orosensations elicited in alcoholic beverages: fructose (sweet), quinine (bitter), tartaric acid (sour) and aluminium sulphate (astringent). Female participants were screened for thermal taste status to determine whether the heightened orosensory responsiveness of thermal tasters (n = 21–22) compared to thermal non-tasters (n = 13–15) extends to these binary mixtures. Participants rated the intensity of five orosensations in binary solutions of ethanol (5%, 13%, 23%) and a tastant (low, medium, high). For each tastant, 3-way ANOVAs determined which factors impacted orosensory ratings. Burning/tingling increased as ethanol concentration increased in all four binary mixture types and was not impacted by the concentration of other stimuli. In contrast, bitterness increased with ethanol concentration, and decreased with increasing fructose concentration. Sourness tended to be reduced as ethanol concentration increased, although astringency intensity decreased with increasing concentration of fructose. Overall, thermal tasters tended to be more responsive than thermal non-tasters. These results provide insights into how the taste and chemesthetic profiles of alcoholic beverages across a wide range of ethanol concentrations can be manipulated by changing their composition.

In order to prevent health risk from potential exposures to phthalates, a glow discharge plasma (GDP) process was applied for phthalate degradation in aqueous solution. The results revealed that the phthalate derivatives 4-hydroxyphthalic acid, 4-methylphthalic acid and 4-tert-butylphthalic anhydride could be degraded efficiently in GDP process (498 V, 0.2 A) with high removal efficiencies of over 99% in 60 minutes. Additionally, pyrite as a promising heterogeneous iron source in the Fenton reaction was found to be favorable for GDP process. The phthalate degradation reaction could be significantly enhanced by the continuous formation of •OH and the inhibition of the quenching reaction in the pyrite Fenton system due to the constant dissolution of Fe(II) from pyrite surface. Meanwhile, the initial pH value showed little impact on the degradation of phthalates and the energy efficiency of GDP system for phthalate degradation ranged between 0.280 × 10−9 and 1.210 × 10−9 mol/J, which is similar to the GDP system with phenol, bisphenol A and methyl tert-butyl ether as the substrates. Further, the X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analyses indicated that the pyrite was relatively stable in GDP system and there was no obvious polymeric compound formed on the catalyst surface. Overall, this GDP process offers high removal efficiency, simple technology, considerable energy efficiency and the applicability to salt-containing phthalate wastewater.

In this work, the refractometry method was used to study of the molecular interactions and structural characteristics of dimethylformamide-ethanol and cyclohexane-ethanol binary mixtures. The refractive indices of mixtures were measured over a wide range of dimethylformamide and cyclohexane concentrations (0−1.0 mole fractions) at 25°С. It has been shown that heteromolecular complexes in binary solutions are formed at the concentration of ∼0.5 mole fraction of those compounds due to strong H-bonds. Relatively weak interactions are determined at a concentration of ∼0.2 and ∼0.9 mole fraction of dimethylformamide and ∼0.2 and ∼0.8 mole fraction of cyclohexane.

Summary Gas-alkane interfacial tension (IFT) is an important parameter in the enhanced oil recovery (EOR) process. Thus, it is imperative to obtain an accurate gas-alkane mixture IFT for both chemical and petroleum engineering applications. Various empirical correlations have been developed in the past several decades. Although these models are often easy to implement, their accuracy is inconsistent over a wide range of temperatures, pressures, and compositions. Although statistical mechanics-based models and molecular simulations can accurately predict gas-alkane IFT, they usually come with an extensive computational cost. The Shardt-Elliott (SE) model is a highly accurate IFT model that for subcritical fluids is analytic in terms of temperature T and composition x. In applications, it is desirable to obtain IFT in terms of temperature T and pressure P, which requires time-consuming flash calculations, and for mixtures that contain a gas component greater than its pure species critical point, additional critical composition calculations are required. In this work, the SE model is combined with a machine learning (ML) approach to obtain highly efficient and highly accurate gas-alkane binary mixture IFT equations directly in terms of temperature, pressure, and alkane molar weights. The SE model is used to build an IFT database (more than 36,000 points) for ML training to obtain IFT equations. The ML-based IFT equations are evaluated in comparison with the available experimental data (888 points) and with the SE model, as well as with the less accurate parachor model. Overall, the ML-based IFT equations show excellent agreement with experimental data for gas-alkane binary mixtures over a wide range of T and P, and they outperform the widely used parachor model. The developed highly efficient and highly accurate IFT functions can serve as a basis for modeling gas-alkane binary mixtures for a broad range of T, P, and x.

We report on the effect of butane and butylene on hydrogen permeation through thin state-of-the-art Pd–Ag alloy membranes. A wide range of operating conditions, such as temperature (200–450 °C) and H2/butylene (or butane) ratio (0.5–3), on the flux-reducing tendency were investigated. In addition, the behavior of membrane performance during prolonged exposure to butylene was evaluated. In the presence of butane, the flux-reducing tendency was found to be limited up to the maximum temperature investigated, 450 °C. Compared to butane, the flux-reducing tendency in the presence of butylene was severe. At 400 °C and 20% butylene, the flux decreases by ~85% after 3 h of exposure but depends on temperature and the H2/butylene ratio. In terms of operating temperature, an optimal performance was found at 250–300 °C with respect to obtaining the highest absolute hydrogen flux in the presence of butylene. At lower temperatures, the competitive adsorption of butylene over hydrogen accounts for a large initial flux penalty.
