CO2 nonequilibrium dissolution in heavy oil was thoroughly studied, and the relevant mass-transfer parameters were determined. Experiments were conducted at different scales, including a single ultrathin microfluidic channel and ultrathin bulk-phase cell. A continuum-scale simulator coupled with an external real-time programing command was developed to determine the mass-transfer parameters, including the intraphase effective diffusion coefficients and interphase nonequilibrium mass-transfer rates. The former were correlated with the solvent concentration and chemical potential of the system, while the latter were calculated using nonequilibrium chemical potential decay, which was correlated with the system pressure and free energy. The newly developed simulator was verified using literature data from various experimental scales, including PVT cells and microfluidics. The simulator incorporates the effect of nonequilibrium free energy on interphase mass transfer in quiescent molecular diffusion-dominated processes, providing a viable technique for accurately simulating continuum-scale mass transfer, particularly in solvent-based injection.

Direct air capture (DAC) is a critical technology for mitigating climate change. However, the high heat consumption of temperature vacuum swing adsorption (TVSA)-based DAC processes hinders its widespread deployment. This study focuses on developing a control strategy to optimize the energy efficiency of the TVSA heating phase. A novel adsorbent temperature estimation method, validated through experimental data, was integrated into a cascaded PI controller with a fuzzy gain scheduler (FGS). Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed control strategy effectively regulates the heating process, achieving a potential energy saving of up to 14%. This work contributes to enhancing the feasibility and sustainability of DAC technologies.

The distribution and deposition of hydrates in deep-water gas transportation pipelines are crucial for safety. Current simulations of hydrate flow based on the population balance model have predominantly focused on water-dominant systems and neglect the nucleation and deposition of hydrates. By establishing a model for a hydrate flow in a gas-dominant system that considers the uneven distribution of the liquid film on the wall, hydrate nucleation, gas–liquid mass transfer, particle adhesion and aggregation, and dynamic deposition, we achieved simulation of the entire process of hydrate formation, aggregation, breakage, and deposition. Simulations in undulating pipelines were carried out to investigate the effects of gas velocity, liquid injection, pressure, and pipeline structure on distribution patterns. The results showed increasing the gas velocity enhanced the dispersion of particles and increasing the pressure increased the rate of aggregation. The formation of blocky aggregates posed significant risk in the rear section of the lower-bend pipe.

Revealing the gas separation capabilities of amorphous porous materials remains a critical challenge in the materials community for their development as novel adsorbents. This work aims to unlock the potential of amorphous materials for adsorption-based CH4/H2 separation at pressure swing adsorption (PSA) condition using grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations. Several adsorbent performance evaluation metrics, including adsorption selectivity, working capacity, adsorbent performance score (APS) and regenerability (R%) were computed at 298 K for polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs), amorphous carbons, kerogens, and amorphous zeolitic imidazole frameworks (ZIFs). The CH4/H2 selectivities and CH4 working capacities of the amorphous materials were estimated to be 9–62 and 0.1–5 mol/kg under PSA condition. Kerogens exhibited the highest APS, and most of the structures provided high R%>80 %. However, none of the materials could reach the maximum APS (802 mol/kg) of crystalline MOFs. Diffraction pattern analysis of crystalline and amorphous ZIF-4 was also performed, and the structural changes were monitored to independently confirm the amorphization. Although crystalline ZIFs exhibited higher adsorption selectivities for CH4/H2 separation than amorphous ZIFs, their R% were significantly lower. Gas mixture adsorption isotherms of promising amorphous materials were also computed to reveal gas adsorption mechanism. The developed computational approach will be useful in predicting the performance of amorphous materials for CH4/H2 separation under industrial conditions and monitoring amorphization by diffraction analysis during mass production.

The heavy-metal contamination of aquatic environments presents imminent threat. Herein, we report a class of dual-heteroatomic conjugated microporous poly(aniline)s showing high-affinity separation performance toward heavy metals. The prepared keto-CMPA shows monolayer adsorption capacity for Hg (II) as high as 980 mg g−1 according to the Langmuir model, and ultra-rapid kinetic with h reaching 30.41 mg g−1 that could be described by the pseudo-second-order model. It maintains excellent stability across six reuses under harsh conditions, and furthermore demonstrates ultradeep separation efficiency that could adsorb almost all of heavy metals to ppb level with low usage. For further industrialization, a competent adsorption device was developed to remove heavy metals down to 1 ppb with a remarkable breakthrough over 20,000 BV. Characterizations and DFT calculation showed that the triangular synergistic region formed by the N-O-sites in the singular CMPA structure provided a feasible binding energy to enable the above impressive performance.

Data-driven modeling plays a vital role in petrochemical industry, especially fluid catalytic cracking (FCC). However, the long operational cycles, large-scale measurements, multivariate data, and intricate temporal correlations in FCC units may lead to the problem of low prediction accuracy when only use a single time series data-driven modeling neural network such as long short-term memory (LSTM) network. To address these challenges, an effective prediction framework is proposed that integrates LSTM network with extreme gradient boosting (XGBOOST)-based feature selection and temporal-attention (TA) mechanisms. XGBOOST is applied to filter features related to the predictive variables in order to eliminate redundant variables. TA mechanisms within an LSTM network is used to capture the relevant historical time steps of the current moment. The results of our efficient prediction framework, applied to FCC process and three additional petrochemical processes, have proven to be superior to other methods.
数据驱动建模在石化行业,尤其是流体催化裂化(FCC)中发挥着重要作用。然而,由于催化裂化装置的运行周期长、测量规模大、数据多变、时间相关性复杂,如果仅使用单一的时间序列数据驱动建模神经网络(如长短期记忆(LSTM)网络),可能会导致预测精度不高的问题。为了应对这些挑战,我们提出了一种有效的预测框架,它将 LSTM 网络与基于极端梯度提升(XGBOOST)的特征选择和时间注意力(TA)机制相结合。XGBOOST 用于过滤与预测变量相关的特征,以消除冗余变量。LSTM 网络中的 TA 机制用于捕捉当前时刻的相关历史时间步骤。我们的高效预测框架适用于催化裂化过程和另外三种石化过程,其结果证明优于其他方法。

Coupling of green hydrogen with the coal chemical industry is pivotal for clean coal utilization and low-carbon transition. This study aims to predict syngas composition efficiently using artificial intelligence-assisted machine learning models, particularly the BP-MLPNN model, addressing raw material diversity and process uncertainties. BP-MLPNN model demonstrates superior reliability and robustness in syngas component prediction, as indicated by significantly lower MSE and RMSE values ranging from 0.002 to 11.61 and 0.05 to 3.41, respectively, along with R2 values ranging from 0.84 to 1.00. This performance surpasses other models without overfitting. Subsequently, the BP-MLPNN model underwent SHAP analysis to elucidate the internal mechanism of “black box” model. A simple interface input APP was developed to achieve human–machine interaction. This model can mitigate uncertainties in analyzing the integrated coal chemical industry and green hydrogen production system, providing technical guidance and references to quantify its advantages and potential in producing various chemical products.

Utilizing physical adsorption for ethylene purification from complex mixtures can significantly reduce the energy cost for production. The purification of multi-component systems through a single adsorption process presents a considerable challenge, largely stemming from the absence of customized strategies and thorough investigations into adsorption behaviours. We aim to understand adsorbents through a unique cage recognition approach and leverage these insights to develop an effective purification adsorbent, with the successful synthesis of SSZ-16 zeolite meeting requirements for multi-component purification. This zeolite, featuring a long aft supercage and a narrow gme cage construct two adsorption cages. The dense π-electron cloud of C2H2 enables a stronger interaction in aft cage, while CO2 is selectively captured within the environmentally compatible gme cage, demonstrating significantly higher C2H2 and CO2 adsorption capacity. The separation experiments reveal that SSZ-16 exhibits exceptional performance, with an unprecedented polymer-grade C2H4 productivity of 2099.16 L/kg from the CO2/C2H2/C2H4 mixture.

This work focuses on heat exchanger networks (HENs) synthesis (HENS) considering the optimal locations of multiple utilities. Based on an extended stage-wise superstructure where available heaters and coolers are placed at all stages, HENS is modeled as a computationally-hard mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problem. To obtain high-quality solutions, we propose a new hybrid algorithm framework that combines deterministic algorithm (commercial solver) and genetic algorithm (GA) without the use of penalty functions. In the outer level of the framework, GA is employed to optimize the integer variables which represent the existences of matches between process streams as well as the available heaters and coolers at intermediate stages. In the inner level, a reduced-size MINLP model is built to minimize the total annualized costs (TACs) of HENs generated in the outer level. We also propose three new sets to exclude infeasible stream matches, thereby the HENs generated in the outer level are all feasible and our GA does not need any penalty terms. Four literature examples are tested and optimal solutions with lower TACs are obtained within acceptable computing time compared to solutions reported in literature.
这项工作的重点是考虑多个公用设施的最佳位置的热交换器网络(HENs)合成(HENS)。基于一个扩展的分阶段上层结构,即在所有阶段都放置可用的加热器和冷却器,HENS 被模拟为一个计算困难的混合整数非线性编程(MINLP)问题。为了获得高质量的解决方案,我们提出了一种新的混合算法框架,该框架结合了确定性算法(商业求解器)和遗传算法(GA),且不使用惩罚函数。在该框架的外层,采用遗传算法来优化整数变量,这些变量表示工艺流之间是否存在匹配,以及中间阶段是否存在可用的加热器和冷却器。在内层,我们建立了一个缩小的 MINLP 模型,以最小化外层生成的 HEN 的总年化成本 (TAC)。我们还提出了三个新的集合来排除不可行的流匹配,因此外层生成的 HEN 都是可行的,而我们的 GA 不需要任何惩罚项。我们对四个文献实例进行了测试,与文献报道的解决方案相比,我们在可接受的计算时间内获得了具有较低 TAC 的最优解决方案。

Four literature examples are tested and optimal solutions with lower TACs are obtained within acceptable computing time compared to solutions reported in literature.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":271,"journal":{"name":"Chemical Engineering Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0009250924010327/pdfft?md5=4e2f0200fe1deb016db52a4e3e3bd5ab&pid=1-s2.0-S0009250924010327-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142243067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The design of catalysts for the mile production of cyclic carbonates by CO2 cycloaddition is of value. Magnetic polymer nanoparticles-supported imidazole tribromide zinc ionic liquid catalysts, incorporating N-functional hydrogen bond donors (HBD), was successfully accomplished. The correlation between the N-functional HBD and catalytic activity was thoroughly investigated through experimental studies and DFT calculations. The catalyst featuring a secondary amine group (NHM) demonstrated remarkable catalytic performance in CO2 cycloaddition reactions. Under optimized conditions, including 0.12 mol% catalyst dose, 100 °C, and = 1:1.2 for 3 h, a complete conversion was achieved. The exceptional performance of the catalyst was attributed to the multicenter synergistic effect, arising from the appropriate electronegativity, minimal spatial site resistance, a balanced distance between the NHM and imidazolium ion, and the presence of multiple active centers (NHM, Zn2+, and Br−). The integration of a magnetic component enabled swift separation and exceptional recovery stability over 8 consecutive cycles.
