In the present paper, crude biodiesel prepared with sorbifolia oil as raw material by transesterification was purified by column chromatography, then the composition of biodiesel was analyzed by gas chromatography, FTIR, GC-MS and 1H NMR. Column chromatography can separate the crude biodiesel into two fractions: petroleum ether eluted fraction (A1) and methanol eluted fraction (A2). Petroleum ether eluted fraction was mainly biodiesel fraction, which was produced from sorbifolia oil by transesterification, including methyl linoleate, methyl cis-9-octadecenoate and so on; methanol eluted fraction was mainly glycerol fraction, which came from the side reaction of transesterification.

The dehydration of bischofite is the key to the use of magnesium resource. Double salts or complex method is an important way to prepare anhydrous magnesium chloride. The crystals of bischofite and aniline hydrochloride were prepared through lowering the temperature of the mixture's aquatic solution slowly.

Objective: Shen Yan Ling Tablet is an innovative compound of traditional Chinese medicine, scientifically prepared with Tripterygium wilfordii, Radix Astragali, and others, with precise efficacy on renal diseases and reduced adverse effects of Tripterygium wilfordii. Based on the Guiding Principles for New Drug Toxicity Research Before Clinical Application, we investigated the long-term toxicity of Shen Yan Ling Tablet and its effect on the reproductive function in rats.

Methods: According to the clinical therapeutic dose and the results of the acute toxicity test of Shen Yan Ling Tablet, we equally divided 80 rats (males and females half-and-half) into a low-dose (1.

We studied the 60Co gamma-ray radiolysis of thiocyanate aqueous solutions in the presence of free radical scavengers, determination of cyanide of radiated thiocyanate solutions, degradation of cyanide and thiocyanate complicated system and cyanide, thiocyanate and copper (I) cyanide complicated system. The presence of NaHCO3 and n-butanol made the degradation efficiency of thiocyanate decreased, in the radiation procession of thiocyanate, cyanide was produced; and the possible reaction equation is SCN(-) + 8*OH-->SO4(2-) + CN(-) +4H2O, in the cyanide and thiocyanate system, the thiocyanate degradation rate can obtained 30%, free cyanide degradation was little effected by coexistence of thiocyanate; and due to strong complex ability of copper (I), the main form of copper (I) cyanide is Cu(CN)3(2-), the total cyanide of the system can't be degraded completely and degradation rate is about 80%.

Radiolysis of aqueous solution of thiocyanate by 60Co gamma-rays was studied. In condition of pH = 1 and pH = 3,25 mg/L SCN- was decomposed under the dose of 6 kGy, with decomposition rate of 98.11% (pH = 1) and 95.

Sugarcane bagasse hemicellulose hydrolysates, pretreated by either over-liming or electrodialysis and, supplemented with nutrient materials, were fermented to ethanol using Pachysolen tannophilus DW06. Compared with detoxification by over-liming, detoxification by electrodialysis decreased the loss of sugar and increased the acetic acid removal, leading to better fermentability. A batch culture with electrodialytically pretreated hydrolysate as substrate was developed giving 21 g ethanol l(-1) with a yield of 0.

Article Synopsis
  • Quaternary ammonium salts, like N263, have a strong attraction to gold in cyanide solutions but are difficult to strip, although using acidic thiourea solutions shows potential for improvement.
  • The stripping mechanism involves extracting sulphuric acid and thiourea, converting the gold-cyanide complex into a gold-thiourea complex, and producing hydrogen cyanide (HCN) that is then removed by air sparging.
  • The study uses EXAFS to analyze how the gold-thiourea complex is distributed between the organic and liquor phases during the stripping process, ultimately leading to successful gold recovery.

Article Synopsis
  • * The method showed a linear detection range of 0.2-12 x 10(-6) and a relative standard deviation (RSD) of less than 5%, indicating reliable results.
  • * Thiourea reduces gold absorbency, while sulfuric acid increases it, and the results were deemed satisfactory after adjusting for background interference.
