The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of purified pyrite to pyrrhotite and sulfur in a dynamic argon atmosphere have been studied over the temperature range 600 to 653 °C. The reaction was followed by the rate of weight loss as indicated by a quartz spring balance and also by the rate of progression of the pyrite/pyrrhotite interface into a cylindrical, compressed, polycrystalline pellet. The temperature coefficient of the reaction was found to be 69.5 ± 5.9, 64.7 ± 3.3, and 66.9 ± 5.1 kcal mole−1, when the results were processed in three different ways. The pyrite/pyrrhotite interface was found to progress at a linear rate into the pellet at a given temperature; equations were derived to express the variation of reaction rate with temperature. Attempts to follow the early nucleation stage of the decomposition, using massive mineral crystals, proved unsuccessful.

Glyphosate (GP) is a widely used herbicide worldwide, yet accumulation of GP and its main byproduct, aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA), in soil and water has raised concerns about its potential effects to human health. Thermal treatment processes are one option for decontaminating material containing GP and AMPA, yet the thermal decomposition chemistry of these compounds remains poorly understood. Here, we have revealed the thermal decomposition mechanism of GP and AMPA by applying computational chemistry and reaction rate theory methods. <br>

The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of benzylamine were studied by a flow method using toluene as a carrier gas. The decomposition produced NH 3 and dibenzyl in a molar ratio of 1:1, and small quantities of permanent gases consisting mainly of H 2 . Over a temperature range of 150° (650 to 800° C) the process was found to be a homogeneous gas reaction, following first-order kinetics, the rate constant being expressed by k = 6 x 10 12 exp (59,000/ RT ) sec. -1 . It was concluded, therefore, that the mechanism of the decomposition could be represented by the following equations: C 6 H 5 . CH 2 . NH 2 → C 6 H 5 . CH 2 • + NH 2 •, C 6 H 5 . CH 3 + NH 2 •→ C 6 H 5 . CH 2 • + NH 3 , 2C 6 H 5 . CH 2 •→ dibenzyl, and the experimentally determined activation energy of 59 ± 4 kcal./mole is equal to the dissociation energy of the C-N bond in benzylamine. Using the available thermochemical data we calculated on this basis the heat of formation of the NH 2 radical as 35.5 kcal./mole, in a fair agreement with the result obtained by the study of the pyrolysis of hydrazine. A review of the reactions of the NH 2 radicals is given.

Abstract The kinetics of mercury corrosion of various conventional materials of construction were studied in glass, reflux-type capsules with two-phase mercury at temperatures from 600 to 1000 F (316 to 538 C). These studies have shown that although corrosion may proceed initially at a linear rate, steady-state corrosion is essentially diffusion rate-controlled for metals which develop a corrosion layer barrier. Penetration and weight loss plots are presented for representative alloys. Arrhenius-type plots of parabolic corrosion rate constants show essentially linear behavior with temperature for a given material. These results were substantiated in thermal convection two-phase natural circulation loop tests.

Magnetizing Roasting

Due to the advantage in deactivating fluorine and enhancing the decomposition of rare earth (RE) minerals, MgO was applied to the magnetizing roasting of Bayan Obo tailings in this work. The effects of MgO dosages, roasting temperature, and holding time on the decomposition rate of RE minerals were experimentally studied. With a MgO dosage of 10 wt.%, the decomposition rate of RE minerals reached 98.09% at 750 °C. The phase composition of roasted samples was characterized by XRD and SEM-EDS. The incomplete decomposition rate was investigated with the observation of leaching residual by SEM-EDS. The decomposition kinetics of the RE minerals with the addition of MgO was analyzed with the Ginstling-Brundshtein model, where the reaction rate was controlled by chemical reaction.

Kinetics of BrO decomposition was studied between 293 and 673 °K using the technique of kinetic spectroscopy. At 293 °K the reaction rate is second order with respect to BrO and is independent of [Br2], [O2], and total pressure of diluent gas. The activation energy for decomposition obtained from rate measurements between 293 and 450 °K is 0.65 ± 0.05 kcal/mole. Above 450 °K this activation energy appears to increase to 4.5 kcal/mole. It is shown that, although kinetically the ClO and BrO decompositions are similar, the mechanism for BrO decomposition below 450 °K is much simpler than that of ClO. The reaction proceeds, most likely, via one step: 2 BrO → 2 Br + O2, with Br2O2 being an activated complex, which has either linear or staggered configuration. ClO and BrO decomposition is compared with [Formula: see text] reaction.

In this paper, the method of microwave reduction roasting was applied to investigate the heating and weight loss process from hematite to magnetite in crude niobium concentrate under the protection of argon. The kinetics of microwave reduction roasting of hematite in crude niobium concentrate were analyzed and calculated at the temperature range of 500°C ~850°C by way of non-isothermal thermogravimetry and isothermal gravimetric analysis. Results from this investigation demonstrated that the activation energy of microwave reduction roasting calculated by non-isothermal thermogravimetry was 26.5769kJ•mol-1, and the activation energy calculated by isothermal gravimetric analysis was 64.1203kJ•mol-1. Compared with the method of reduction roasting under resistance heating, the activation energy of microwave reduction roasting was small, and the reaction rate was fast.

The 'pervanadium complex' is investigated in a general manner. The kinetics of its thermal decomposition in acid solution are shown to be first order with respect to pervanadium, the apparent activation energy is 26.5 ± 1.0 kcal/mole, and possible mechanisms are suggested. The effect of various acids upon the nature of the decomposition products is determined: almost quantitative yields of vanadium (V) or vanadium (IV) are obtained in very dilute or concentrated acid, respectively. Spectrophotometric studies indicate that in acid solution two separate complexes exist: a red (1:1) cationic complex and a yellow (1:2) anionic complex. The stoichiometry of the equilibrium between the two complexes in solutions of sulphuric acid is investigated by a method of 'discrete variations'. The equilibrium could be described by[Formula: see text]where Kr/y = 2.2 ± 0.2 at 22 °C. The anion is shown to play an important part in determining the nature of the pervanadium complex.
