Dissolution and hydrolysis of fibre sludge using hydroxyalkylimidazolium hydrogensulphate ionic liquids
2014
Abstract The dissolution and hydrolysis of wet fibre sludge in ionic liquids (ILs) with different reaction conditions are performed in this study. Novel types of hydroxyalkylimidazolium hydrogensulphate ILs, [glymim]HSO 4 , [hemim]HSO 4 and [hpmim]HSO 4 , are especially designed and aimed to combine the dissolution and hydrolysis of wet fibre sludge in a one-step pretreatment. The results were obtained based on the analysis of total reducing sugars (TRS) with the DNS method. The dissolution and hydrolysis of fresh wild horse chestnut fruit ( Aesculus hippocastanum ) with the same ILs were also carried out as a comparison reference. Since fibre sludge is cellulose based and horse chestnut fr…
The Relevance of Mineral Mobilization and -Dissolution on the Reservoir Quality of Sandstones in CO2 Storage Sites
2014
Abstract Rotliegend siliciclastic formations are important reservoirs in central Europe. These sediments consist of pristine red coloured and bleached, high porous and permeable sandstones. To evaluate the relevance of distinct fluids and their fluid-rock alteration reactions on such bleaching processes laboratory static batch experiments under reservoir conditions were conducted. Thereby mineralogical, petrophysical and (hydro-, geo-) chemical rock features were investigated by different analytical methods before and after the experiments. The achieved results suggest that during such fluid-rock interactions a complex interplay between mineral detachment and mineral dissolution processes w…
Experimental alteration of granitic rocks: Implications for the evolution of geothermal brines in the Upper Rhine Graben, Germany
2020
Abstract Geothermal energy exploitation in the Upper Rhine Graben (URG) chiefly has targeted faults and fractures within or connected with the crystalline basement, where hot fluids of c. 200 °C circulate at depths of c. 5 km. Formation fluids of the crystalline basement are highly saline, NaCl-dominated brines, whereas shallow crystalline basement water ( The trace element concentrations of the leachates are hereby related to the composition and stability of minerals in the rocks and can be directly linked to the proposed and observed dissolution processes at the different temperatures. In experiments with pure water at 70 °C, representing the recharge or infiltration conditions, water-roc…
Relationship between particle size and dissolution rate of bulk powders and sieving characterized fractions of two qualities of orthoboric acid
1996
Drug Dev. Ind. Pharm. ISI Document Delivery No.: VN279 Times Cited: 1 Cited Reference Count: 22 Tromelin, A Habillon, S Andres, C Pourcelot, Y Chaillot, B; International audience; We have carried out a study of the particle size distribution and aqueous dissolution rate of two commercially available qualities of orthoboric acid, labeled ''crystal'' (ABC) and ''powder'' (ABP). In a previous work, we have shown that the two commercial qualities of orthoboric acid chosen as model compound (''powder'' and ''crystal'') are related to the same crystal network in spite of their different names. However, these two qualities have very different size particle distributions, as previously determined b…
Low-temperature Zr mobility: An in-situ synchrotron-radiation XRF study of the effect of radiation damage in zircon on the element release in $H_{2}O…
2006
The release of Zr, U, and Pb from nearly metamict zircon and its recrystallized analog and of Zr from fully crystalline and slightly radiation-damaged zircon in H 2 O + HCl ± SiO 2 fluids was investigated in situ at temperatures between 200 and 500 °C using a hydrothermal diamond-anvil cell and time-resolved synchrotron-radiation XRF analyses. Dissolution of nearly metamict zircon proceeded much faster than that of zircon with little or no radiation damage and resulted in a 1.5 to 2 log units higher Zr molality in 6 to 7 m HCl fluids. Extensive recrystallization of the almost fully amorphous material started at 260 to 300 °C in H 2 O + HCl, and at about 360 °C if quartz was added, and was c…
Influence of the dissolution of MnS inclusions under free corrosion and potentiostatic conditions on the composition of passive films and the electro…
2006
Abstract The influence of the dissolution of MnS inclusions at the OCP value and 400 mV versus SCE on the chemical composition of passive films and the electrochemical behaviour of resulfurized austenitic stainless steel was studied in 1 M NaClO 4 , pH 3, solution using SIMS, XPS, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and the electrochemical microcell technique. The electrochemical dissolution (at 400 mV versus SCE) of inclusions occurred uniformly along the interface and this process was almost complete after 25 min immersion. A small amount of sulfur was detected on the matrix that exhibited a wide passive range. By contrast, the dissolution process under free corrosion was not uniform a…
Anhydrous Amorphous Calcium Oxalate Nanoparticles from Ionic Liquids: Stable Crystallization Intermediates in the Formation of Whewellite
2015
The mechanisms by which amorphous intermediates transform into crystalline materials are not well understood. To test the viability and the limits of the classical crystallization, new model systems for crystallization are needed. With a view to elucidating the formation of an amorphous precursor and its subsequent crystallization, the crystallization of calcium oxalate, a biomineral widely occurring in plants, is investigated. Amorphous calcium oxalate (ACO) precipitated from an aqueous solution is described as a hydrated metastable phase, as often observed during low-temperature inorganic synthesis and biomineralization. In the presence of water, ACO rapidly transforms into hydrated whewe…
Cation and anion electrochemically assisted solid-state transformations of malachite green
2020
[EN] The possibility of the electrochemical promotion of different solid-to-solid transformations including the performance of successive cation and anion insertion processes has been tested using malachite green, a triphenylmethane dye, in contact with aqueous NaCl electrolyte. Electrochemical data using the voltammetry of microparticles methodology reveal significant differences with the solution phase electrochemistry of the dye. Voltammetric data, combined with atomic force microscopy, focusing ion beam-field emission scanning electron microscopy, and high-resolution field emission scanning electron microscopy permit characterization of the oxidative dissolution, oxidation with anion in…
Effect of Anions and Oxygen on the Kinetics of the Anodic Dissolution of Nickel
2006
An electrochemical impedance spectroscopy study on electrochemical dissolution and active/passive transition of polycrystalline nickel in acid media has been performed in sulfate and nitrate aqueous solutions. Oxygen favors the nickel electrodissolution in a nitrate aqueous acid medium, but the dissolution decreases in the sulfate medium due to nickel passivation. The anion and oxygen effect is analyzed from a model where Ni(I) species are stabilized on the Ni metal surface and all anions present in the solution compete in the neutralization of Ni(I) and Ni(II) and in the solubilization of Ni(II).
Fractional dissolution of “solid” unsubstituted cellulose
2000
Activated cellulose (Solucell, DP w = 1400) was extracted stepwise at room temperatures by means of mixed solvents consisting of N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) and LiCl, starting with a salt concentration of 1 wt.-% and increasing it in increments of 1 wt.-% up to 7 wt.-%. Upon the regeneration of the thus obtained cellulose fractions by pouring the solutions dropwise into a large surplus of water, part of the mixed solvent is occluded in the polymer. For that reason the cellulose samples were purified by redissolving them in Ni-tren and by a second precipitation. This process, however, leads to pronounced polymer degradation. For that reason we have used a spinning nozzle to press the extrac…
