There exists a great difference of the photocatalytic degradation efficiency between nanoscaled TiO2 modified-emulsified asphalt applied as the fog sealing under the indoor and outdoor environment. Much efforts have been made by many investigators to study this issue. However, most of them focus on the ideal condition, ignoring the degradation efficiency examination of TiO2 in the actual engineering practice. A series of field tests are carried out, accompanied with laboratory experiments, to analyze and consequently compare the photocatalytic degradation efficiency of nanoscaled TiO2 in the indoor and outdoor conditions, respectively. Regression analysis was employed to investigate the influence factors of degradation efficiency, by which formula of function of factors influencing degradation efficiency and degradation efficiency deviation equation are obtained. The results show that when the degradation efficiency of NO2 in the laboratory test is as high as 63%, the degradation efficiency affected by the environmental factors is only 25% in the actual engineering practice. Based on the measurement data, detection indicators and criteria can be provided, which is of great significance in the establishment of the construction quality control system.

Considering the photocatalytic performance of CDs, ZnO, and the unique porous nanostructure and stability of ZIF-8, we prepared ZnCDs/ZnO@ZIF-8 zeolite composites. The resultant material represented an enhanced ability for the photodegradation of TC compared with that of ZnCDs and ZnO. The photocatalytic degradation efficiency reached over 85%. The catalytic activity of the composites was maintained after four cycles. The experimental result indicated that ×O2 radical was the active species in the reaction.

An efficient, environmentally compatible and highly porous, silver surface-modified photocatalytic zinc oxide/cellulose acetate/ polypyrrole ZnO/CA/Ppy hybrid nanofibers matrix was fabricated using an electrospinning technique. Electrospinning parameters such as solution flow rate, applied voltage and the distance between needles to collector were optimized. The optimum homogenous and uniform ZnO/CA/Ppy polymeric composite nanofiber was fabricated through the dispersion of 0.05% wt ZnO into the dissolved hybrid polymeric solution with an average nanofiber diameter ranged between 125 and 170 nm. The fabricated ZnO-polymeric nanofiber was further surface-immobilized with silver nanoparticles to enhance its photocatalytic activity through the reduction of the nanofiber bandgap. A comparative study between ZnO polymeric nanofiber before and after silver immobilization was investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The photocatalytic degradation efficiency of the two different prepared nanofibers before and after nanosilver immobilization for malachite green (MG) dye was compared against various experimental parameters. The optimum degradation efficiency of nanosilver surface-modified ZnO-polymeric nanofibers was recorded as 93.5% for malachite green dye after 1 h compared with 63% for ZnO-polymeric nanofibers.

Coalbed water injection is the most basic and effective dust-proof technology in the coal mining face. To understand the influence of coalbed water injection process parameters and coalbed characteristic parameters on coal wetting radius, this paper uses Fluent computational fluid dynamics software to systematically study the seepage process of coalbed water injection under different process parameters and coalbed characteristic parameters, calculation results of which are applied to engineering practice. The results show that the numerical simulation can help to predict the wetness range of coalbed water injection, and the results can provide guidance for the onsite design of coalbed water injection process parameters. The effect of dust reduction applied to onsite coalbed water injection is significant, with the average dust reduction rates during coal cutting and support moving being 67.85% and 46.07%, respectively, which effectively reduces the dust concentration on the working face and improves the working environment.

In this paper, ways of heat transfer through windows and doors between the indoor and outdoor environment in the northern area are summarized. And every heat transfer way is described by mathematical formula. On this basis, methods to improve the energy saving performance of exterior windows are put forward according to factors affecting heat transfer through windows. The first method is increasing solar radiation heat, and then reducing heat loss by infiltration, and increasing the thermal resistance as much as possible. Ideal form of energy-saving window is proposed based on compared windows with different material and thermal resistance.

The Stability

For the loess cave characteristics, such as the thin coverage soil layer at the hole top, the poor self-stabilizing capacity, the large disturbance deformation after excavation and the easy collapse, thus in this paper, the loess cave safety factor is obtained by the method of strength reduction. And the stability calculation analysis is much more perfect. The Northwest Area Lishi loess cave is used in this paper, and the idea of strength reduction finite element method is applied, based on the Drucker-Prager yield criterion, the loess cave static stability analysis is made by the software of ANSYS.The results show that the actual situation can be reflected by the method of finite element strength subtraction. And the obtained loess cave stability coefficient is much closer to the actual steady state, thus showing the certain advantages of stability analysis.The method is also adopted in this paper. And its feasibility can be applied to the engineering practice, also a theoretical basis of reference is provided for engineering application.
