Photothermal Interfacial Evaporation Characteristics of PVA/SA–CNT–Borax Hydrogel

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The desalination of seawater has demonstrated significant potential to use solar‐driven interfacial evaporation technologies due to its sustainability, outstanding productivity, and kindness to the environment. In this paper, a hydrogel interfacial evaporator was produced, with PVA and SA as the base materials. The addition of carbon nanotubes

Vitamin C‐Assisted Synthesis of Novel Cu‐SSZ‐13 Zeolite and Its High‐Efficiency Performance in Diesel Vehicle NOx Exhaust Purification

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diesel vehicle‐derived NOx is a major pollutant, and NH3‐SCR with Cu‐SSZ‐13 is the mainstream abatement technology. In this study, vitamin C (Vc) was used as a crystal growth regulator to successfully synthesize Cu‐SSZ‐13‐Vc0.3 via the hydrothermal method. Experimental results demonstrate that the introduction of Vc significantly optimizes the

Design and Optimization of a Novel Kalina‐Organic Rankine Cycle System Based on LNG Cold Energy Utilization

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a novel integrated system (SDKC‐DORC) that combines a split‐flow dual‐pressure Kalina cycle with a secondary organic Rankine cycle for the synergistic utilization of solar energy and liquefied natural gas (LNG) cold energy.

Evaluating the Impact of Cellulose Nanocrystals on the Performance of Polycarbonate Thin‐Film Nanocomposite Membranes for Treating Oily Wastewater

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A new type of thin‐film nanocomposite (TFN) membrane was synthesized by incorporating cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) into a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) top layer on a polycarbonate (PC) substrate via dip‐coating. The synthesized TFC and TFN membranes (PC/PVA TFC and PC/PVA‐CNC TFN membranes) were evaluated using contact angle measurement, field ...

The Effect of Demineralization on Coal Functional Group Pyrolysis: Rank‐Dependent Dual Mechanisms of Structural Reorganization and Mineral Catalysis

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coal pyrolysis, as a key thermochemical conversion process, is significantly influenced by inherent minerals, yet their role across different coal ranks remains inadequately understood. This study investigates the effect of acid‐washing (demineralization) on the thermal decomposition of six functional groups (aliphatic C–H, aromatic C–H/C=C, C=
