Abstract The aim of this study was to verify first-order kinetic reaction rate model performance in predicting of leaching of atrazine and inorganic compounds (K+1, Fe+3, Mg+2, Mn+2, NH4 +, NO3 - and PO4 -3) from tilled and orchard silty loam soils. This model provided an excellent fit to the experimental concentration changes of the compounds vs. time data during leaching. Calculated values of the first-order reaction rate constants for the changes of all chemicals were from 3.8 to 19.0 times higher in orchard than in tilled soil. Higher first-order reaction constants for orchard than tilled soil correspond with both higher total porosity and contribution of biological pores in the former. The first order reaction constants for the leaching of chemical compounds enables prediction of the actual compound concentration and the interactions between compound and soil as affected by management system. The study demonstrates the effectiveness of simultaneous chemical and physical analyses as a tool for the understanding of leaching in variously managed soils.

ABSTRACTThe kinetics of the formation of Cu3Si in Cu/a-Si diffusion couples have been investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry and x-ray diffraction. Multilayered composites of average stoichiometry Cu3Si were prepared by sputter deposition with individual layer thicknesses varying in different samples between 2 and 100 nm. We observed diffusion limited growth of Cu3 Si upon annealing these diffusion couples below 500 K. Reaction constants were measured for a temperature range of 455 to 495 K for thicknesses of growing Cu3Si between 2.6 and 80 nm. The temperature dependence of the reaction constant, k2, was characterized as k2 = k0 exp(− Ea/kbT) with activation energy, Ea = 1.0 eV/atom and pre-factor, k0 = 1.9×10−3 cm2/s.

As a part of a study on modeling the microstructural evolution during the welding process, a prediction model of TTT diagram for bainite transformation was studied. This model consisted of a thermodynamic model for the bainite-start(Bs) temperature and a kinetic model for the bainite transformation. A kinetic model was empirically established for low alloy carbon steels, based on Johnson-Mehl-Avrami(JMA) equation. Reaction constants seemed not to have noticeable tendencies for temperatures and were averaged for each alloy. It was, however, found that the mean reaction constant significantly affected the reproducibility for the isothermal kinetics. Therefore, a calibration method to the kinetic parameter was proposed. From calibrations, rate constants were formulated as a function of alloying element and temperature. And TTT diagrams were calculated and compared with experiments.

AbstractOxidation of an amino acid, L-tyrosine (L-Tyr) by diperiodatocuprate(III) (DPC) in alkaline medium at a constant ionic strength of 0.1 mol dm−3 was studied spectrophotometrically at different temperatures (288.1–313.1 K). The reaction between DPC and L-Tyr in alkaline medium exhibits 1:4 stoichiometry (L-Tyr:DPC). Intervention of free radicals was observed in the reaction. Based on the observed orders and experimental evidence, a mechanism involving monoperiodatocuprate(III) (MPC) as the reactive oxidant species has been proposed. A suitable mechanism is proposed through the formation of a complex and free radical intermediate. The products were identified by spot test and characterized by spectral studies. The reaction constants involved in the different steps of the mechanism were calculated. The activation parameters with respect to slow step of the mechanism were computed and are discussed. The thermodynamic quantities were determined for different equilibrium steps. Isokinetic temperature was also calculated and found to be 252.3 K.

For complex reactions the optimal reactor networks can involve several reactors operating at various temperature profiles. The often-reported strategy of optimizing parameters of a heuristically predetermined reactor system (Super-structure Approach) falls short of obtaining true solution due to the presence of multiple local optima. Attainable set method gives Global optimum but requires study of each reaction scheme in depth. Here one such study using phase-plane analysis (instead of convexity based analysis) is reported for finding globally optimal non-isothermal reactor network for van de Vusse reaction (A -> B -> C, 2A -> D, objective is to maximize yield of B). Compared to two-reactor networks proposed earlier, it is found that up to 5 reactors (CSTR with/without bypass of feed, Isothermal PFR, Non-isothermal PFR, CSTR, Isothermal PFR) may be required to get the highest yield of the desired intermediate. The proposed method involves only elementary calculus. The detailed solution algorithm has been described using analogy with highways. Three cases with the values of reaction constants reported in the literature have been solved.
