The partition of phenols in hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride and bromide RMs in chloroform is successfully evaluated without interferences from the UV-absorption of the media. The larger partition constant is confirmed for a smaller water/surfactant molar ratio (w) and for chloride than bromide as the RM counterion. This suggests that the nature of water is more strongly influenced by confinement in the RM cores for smaller w and the chloride counterion because water molecules are strongly imbibed by the interface.Graphene oxide-containing ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC/GO) composites were synthesized by mechanochemical soft-templating of mimosa tannin and graphene oxide with triblock copolymer Pluronic F127. Graphene oxide was added to modify the surface properties of ordered mesoporous carbon. Next, copper containing MOF (CuBTC) was synthesized in the presence of the OMC/GO composite via dry milling to obtain a three-component composites with different compositions. The composite with 50 wt% of CuBTC exhibited high CO2 uptake capacity of 5.39 mmol·g-1 at 0 °C and 1 bar. This study showed that CuBTC was initially crystallized in mesopores of carbonaceous materials, and next on their external surface. Small OMC amounts (~1 and ~3 wt%) added during the mechanochemical synthesis of CuBTC resulted in the enhanced surface area of the obtained two-component composites reaching 1930 m2·g-1 as compared to those of parent materials. This paper reports a comprehensive study of carbon-CuBTC composites over a wide range of compositions, which may be interesting from the viewpoint of advancing and understanding the mechanochemical synthesis of composite materials with high surface areas, enhanced porosity and interfacial properties.Improving conductivity of electron and ion was considered to be the significant tendency on pseudocapacitive materials. In this work, a flower-like P-NiAl LDHs electrode materials have been successfully fabricated by hydrothermal synthesis and subsequent phosphatized treatment. Owing to the presence of phosphide, the resulting P-NiAl LDHs electrode showed a high specific capacitance of 2159F g-1 at 1 A g-1 and a good capacitance retention of 85.6% at 20 A g-1, which more excellent than NiAl LDHs electrode. Besides, the P-NiAl LDHs//AC asymmetric supercapacitor exhibited a high energy density of 79.3 Wh kg-1 under a power density of 1033.6 W kg-1 and an acceptable stability of 73.6% specific capacitance retention after 2400 charge-discharge cycles. Consequently, the P-NiAl LDHs nanoflower is one of the better candidates for assembling supercapacitor, and this phosphatized method is a kind of facile and desirable strategies to improve the electrochemical characteristics of LDH-based supercapacitor materials.The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of non-thermal and thermal high-intensity ultrasound (HIUS) treatment on the microbial and enzymatic inactivation, physicochemical properties, and kinetic stability of the raw milk by applying different energy densities (1, 3, 5, and 7 kJ/mL). Two HIUS treatments were evaluated based on different nominal powers, named HIUS-A and HIUS-B, using 100 W and 475 W, respectively. HIUS-A treatment was non-thermal processing while HIUS-B was a thermal treatment only for the energy densities of 5 and 7 kJ/mL since the final temperature was above 70 °C. The HIUS-B treatment showed to be more efficient. Log reductions up to 3.9 cycles of aerobic mesophilic heterotrophic bacteria (AMHB) were achieved. Significant reductions of the fat globule size, with diameters lower than 1 µm, better color parameters, and kinetic stability during the storage were observed. Also, HIUS-B treatment inactivated the alkaline phosphatase and lactoperoxidase. The HIUS-B treatment at 3 kJ/mL worked below 57 °C being considered a border temperature since it did not cause unwanted physicochemical effects. Furthermore, a microbial inactivation of 1.8 ± 0.1 log cycles of AMHB was observed. A proper inactivation of only the Alkaline phosphatase and a significant reduction of the fat globules sizes, which kept the milk kinetically stable during storage was achieved.In this paper, the cavitation performance and corresponding pressure pulsation, noise and vibration induced by the choked cavitating flow in a Venturi reactor are investigated experimentally under different cavitation conditions by using high-speed camera and high frequency sensors. Based on the instantaneous continuous cavitation images, the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD), a tool to analyze the large-scale cavitation flow structure, is applied to investigate the choked cavitating flow dynamics. The POD results show that two mechanisms, re-entrant jet flow mechanism and shock wave mechanism, govern the shedding and collapse of cavitation cloud at different pressure ratios. These mechanisms contribute to the variation of pressure pulsation, noise and vibration at different pressure ratios. The pressure pulsation spectrum behaves differently in various cavitation regions induced by the choked cavitating flow. Anlotinib in vitro Due to the existence of low pressure in re-entrant region, the influence of high frequency fluctuation on pressure pulsation caused by re-entrant flow is small. Moreover, with the increase of pressure ratio, the induced noise and vibration intensity decreases gradually, then increases and reaches a maximum value. Finally, it drops to a low and stable level. Despite different inlet pressures, the intensity of cavitation noise and vibration reaches the maximum value at the same pressure ratio. Specifically, the FFT analysis of noise and vibration signals indicates that low frequency component prevails at small pressure ratio owing to the re-entrant jet mechanism, while high frequency component prevails at large pressure ratio owing to the shock wave mechanism. The relationship between the choked cavitation dynamics and the induced pressure pulsation, noise and vibration in the Venturi reactor is highlighted. The results can provide guidance for the optimal operation condition of the Venturi reactor for cavitation applications such as water treatment.
