Abstract:
In this study, polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) is used to optimize the core-shell V@C precursor structure, and the precursor is heat-treated to obtain vanadium nitride (VN) up to the National Standard VN16 grade of China. The addition of PVP promotes both the uniform dispersion of the carbon powders in the vanadium rich solution and facilitates the hydrogen bonding of ammonium polyvanadate (APV) ions, which are adsorbed on the surface of carbon powders for nucleation and growth. The as-prepared precursor by adding PVP has better encapsulated and stable carbon powder core and APV shell with uniform and moderate thickness, as well as small and homogeneous particle size distribution. In the nitridation and reduction process, the phase transition from precursor to VN is as follows: APV → V2O5 → V6O13 → V7O13 → VO2 → V3O5 → V2O3 → (VC) → VN. Due to its more stable core-shell coating structure and more uniform particle size distribution, the optimized precursor forms a more stable phase reaction interface and more active reaction sites, which reduces the reaction activation energy (Ea) at each stage, and makes it more efficient in reducing and nitriding and easier to transition to low-valent VOx and VN. In comparison with current carbothermal reduction process, the reaction time is shortened by 75%, and the flow rate of N2 is reduced from 300 mL/min to 200 mL/min, the usage of N2 is reduced by 40%, significantly reducing production costs.

Abstract:
Renewable energy-based water electrolysis is the main method of producing “green hydrogen”, but it still faces difficulties in large-scale application due to high power consumption and the resulting high cost of electricity. The way to reduce power consumption lies in the development of high-performance electrocatalysts. MXenes is a two-dimensional material composed of carbides, nitrides and carbon-nitrides with high electrical conductivity, large specific surface area, high mechanical strength and excellent hydrophilicity, which is an ideal carrier for electrocatalysts and has been widely used in the research in the field of hydrogen production by electrolysis of water. This paper firstly introduces the basic composition and structural characteristics of MXenes, summarizes and analyzes the research results on the direct use of MXenes in electrolysis of water for hydrogen production, and describes the application and progress of its use as a carrier material to anchor highly active substances for hydrogen and oxygen evolution reaction, and finally summarizes and looks forward to the future development prospects of MXenes materials.

Abstract:
Recently, due to the increasing application of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology, a large number of spent SCR denitrification catalysts were inevitably produced. In order to save the resources and protect the environment, much attention should be attracted on their proper disposal. Spent SCR denitrification catalysts could be recycled as resources through the recovery of valuable components, overall utilization or solidification treatment, respectively. The valuable components could be effectively recovered from spent denitrification catalysts by acid-base leaching, active roasting, molten salt electrolysis, chemical precipitation, organic extraction, ion exchange. The catalyst could also be wholly used as a raw material for regenerating the catalyst and producing titanium-containing pellets or titanium-containing sinter. Moreover, it can also be solidified by melt solidification, cement solidification, ceramic solidification. Overall, the above-mentioned methods were comprehensively summarized and prospected, which will provide inspiration and reference for the resource utilization of spent SCR denitrification catalysts in the future.

Abstract:
The theoretical combustion temperature in front of the tuyere is one of the important parameters for evaluating the thermal state of the blast furnace hearth. On the basis of the traditional theoretical combustion temperature calculation model, the influence of ash content, unburned coal powder, and SiO2 gasification rate on the theoretical combustion temperature was comprehensively considered, and the theoretical combustion temperature calculation model was revised. The research results indicate that, the influence of factors ignored by traditional calculation models on the theoretical combustion temperature ranges from 53 to 55 ℃. The influence of oxygen enrichment rate, coal injection rate, blowing humidity, air temperature, coal fuel rate, coal preheating temperature, ash content, and SiO2 gasification rate on the theoretical combustion temperature decreases in sequence. The suitable theoretical combustion temperature control range for the blast furnace at Panzhihua Steel & Vanadium Co., Ltd. is 2160~2320 ℃. And under the condition of constant blowing humidity, the suitable control range for the theoretical combustion temperature is 2220~2 280 ℃. After applying real-time online calculation of theoretical combustion temperature to the regulation of blast furnace production operations, it effectively promotes

Abstract:
This paper summarizes and sorts the operational data of titanium dioxide industry in China in 2022, such as production capacity, yield, apparent market demand, production capacity distribution, etc., and focuses on analyzing the recent growth trend of titanium dioxide production capacity and the corresponding changes in the supply and demand relationship of titanium ore raw materials. It is pointed out that the yield and production capacity of titanium dioxide in 2022 will continue to maintain an increasing trend, and the concentration of production capacity will be further improved. At the same time, the further expansion of the scale of existing producers and the increase of joining projects outside the industry will lead to the shortage of titanium ore supply. In addition, with the rise of the green new energy battery material industry, a large number of iron phosphate or lithium iron phosphate project construction or preparation, will lead to the surge of titanium dioxide production capacity, aggravate the contradiction between titanium ore supply and demand; then the market prospects and industry outlook is worrying, all parties should pay close attention to and timely adjust.
