An Insight into the Mechanisms of the Scale Inhibition. A Case Study of a Novel Task-specific Fluorescent-tagged Scale Inhibitor Location on Gypsum Crystals
摘要: Scaling in reverse osmosis facilities, boilers, heat exchangers, evaporation plants, and oilfield applications is a serious problem worldwide. In order to provide a new insight into the mechanism of the scale formation and inhibition, a novel fluorescent-tagged 1-hydroxy-7-(6-methoxy-1,3-dioxo-1H-benzo[de]isoquinolin-2(3H)-yl)heptane-1,1-diyl-di(phosphonic acid), (HEDP-F) was synthesized and applied for the fluorescent microscope visualization of gypsum crystals formation in supersaturated aqueous solutions. The visualization of HEDP-F location at gypsum crystals, has demonstrated that the bisphosphonate molecules do not act as they are expected to do according to the current scale inhibition theory. At ambient temperature the gypsum macrocrystals are found to form, and then to grow without visible sorption of bisphosphonate on the crystal edges or any other gypsum crystal growth centers. A tentative nonconventional mechanism of scale inhibition in the bulk supersaturated aqueous solutions of gypsum is proposed.

The mechanical and photocatalytic properties of modified gypsum materials
摘要: Co-modi?ed TiO2 photocatalysts (TiO2-N,C) were added to commercial gypsum to obtain self-cleaning building material. The gypsum/TiO2 composite were also studied towards their mechanical properties. The highest photocatalytic activity was obtained for gypsum samples containing TiO2/N,C photocatalyst treated at 100–300 °C, attributed to high anatase phase participation, relatively high nitrogen and carbon content and high BET surface area (ca. 170–270 m2/g). In this case (300 °C) the model pollutant (azo dye) degradation rate was 85% and 70% after 15 h of UV and vis irradiation, respectively. Higher compressive strength values was observed for gypsum sample loaded with photocatalysts treated at higher temperatures (600–800 °C), attributed to rutile phase presence and large crystallite size. The grinding operation during gypsum/TiO2 composite preparation can contribute towards the increase of compressive strength (even 40%) by reduction of gypsum particle size whereas photocatalyst particles act as the e?ective ?llers of void spaces in gypsum material.

Improved Self-Cleaning Properties of Photocatalytic Gypsum Plaster Enriched with Glass Fiber
摘要: In the study the self-cleaning properties of photoactive gypsum plasters are presented. The modified gypsum plasters were obtained by addition of 1 and 3 wt.% of nitrogen-modified titanium dioxide (TiO2/N) and 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 wt.% of glass fiber. The self-cleaning ability of the obtained materials was tested during two dyes decomposition: Methylene Blue (MB) and Reactive Orange (RO). It was found that presence of glass fiber increased photocatalytic activity of modified gypsum plasters, which may be due to the fact glass fiber may act as ducts for light and transport it to sites screened by TiO2 or glass fiber can retard charge recombination. Moreover, unexpectedly the addition of glass fiber did not increase the mechanical properties of modified gypsum plasters, which may be because gypsum does not strongly adhere to the surface of glass fibers.

Highly stable CdTe quantum dots hosted in gypsum <i>via</i> a flocculation–precipitation method
摘要: Poor stability hinders the practical application of aqueous CdTe quantum dots (QDs) in optoelectronic devices. In this work, a flocculation–precipitation method is demonstrated to host aqueous CdTe QDs in gypsum to form CdTe–gypsum nanocomposites, which is simple, effective and environmental-friendly. Ascribed to gypsum acting as a tight and robust matrix protection agent, the photo-, thermal-, anti-acid and long-term stability of CdTe QDs were remarkably improved. Moreover, this approach solved the problem of incompatibility between aqueous QDs and epoxy resin, allowing for the application of aqueous QDs in white light emitting diodes (WLEDs), based on which a WLED with the red-emission nanocomposites used as a color-conversion layer was successfully fabricated. These results indicate the potential of this technique in stabilizing aqueous QDs as well as their practical application in optoelectronic devices.

Use of a new agricultural product as thermal insulation for solar collector
摘要: Sources of clean energy are becoming increasingly common, and the use of solar thermal energy has also been rising. This paper presents a solar air heater designed with a vegetable material as insulating material, date palm wood, widespread in tropical and saharan countries for use in drying. The study focuses on the comparative thermal performance of this collector and another collectors identical in design, fabrication, and operating under the same conditions, using glass wool as heat insulation. The thermal efficiencies of differents insulators collectors were performed : a) insulator with Petiole Piece, b) insulator with Fibers Piece, c) insulator with Petiole powder, d) insulator with Fibers powder, e) insulator with Petiole + gypsum, f) insulator with Fibers + gypsum insulatin and collector with glass wool insulation were evaluated and graphs were plotted. The final resuls showed that thermal efficiencies of date palm wood (Petiole + gypsum) insulated collector was 37.7 % higher than glass wool insulated collector. The average outlet air temperature of glass wool insulated was 7 % lower than Petiole + gypsum insulated collector. Hence the date palm wood is a good candidate for the development of efficient and safe insulating materials.
