[en] Chlorination of adamantane, bicyclo(3.3.1)nonane, bicyclo(2.2.2)octane, bicyclo(3.2.1)octane, norbornane and 2,5-dimethylhexane, absorbed on silica gel with chlorine, was studied. High yield of ionic chlorination at bridgehead carbon was achieved with the less-strained hydrocarbons. (author)

[en] We study the behavior of a multi-stage fluidized bed dryer operated continuously with dowcomers. With the kinetics of silica gel drying depending on the mass of solids in the dryer and the gas feeding temperature, E = 14.5 KJ/mol, and the distribution of residence times of solids through the dryer, modeling by N tanks agitated in series, the experimental moisture content of the solids coming out of the dryer is compared with the predicted by the Vanecek model.

[en] Six column experiments were performed and seven breakthrough curves (BTCs) and seven displacement (desorption) curves (DPCs) of phosphate and U(VI) were obtained, which demonstrated the effects of phosphate and Cr³⁺ on the sorption and transport of U(VI) on a silica column at pH 3 and uranium concentration 10^-5-10^-6 mol/L of the influent. It was found that in the presence of phosphate sorbed preliminarily on the silica column, the amount of U(VI) sorbed on this column is significantly increased owing to the interaction of U(VI) with phosphate sorbed as compared with that in the absence of phosphate, and the breakthrough and the mean residence time of U(VI) on this column are similar to those in the absence of phosphate. While the effect of simultaneous injection of Cr³⁺ on the retardation of U(VI) on the silica column, the maximum concentration of BTC and the amount of U(VI) sorbed was found to be insignificant. Transport and sorption studies of U(VI) are important, since all uranium isotopes are radioactive, there is a need to understand the potential for migration away from radioactive waste storage and mill tailing sites.

[en] Gas-phase acylation of aminopropyl-silica gel with aliphatic dicarboxylic (succinic, adipic and sebacic) and 4-aminobenzoic acids is proposed as a rapid and efficient one-step method for the synthesis of carboxyalkyl- and 4-aminophenylamidopropyl-silica gels, usually used as zwitterion exchangers for liquid chromatography and matrices for multi-step syntheses of silica-bound aromatic azo reagents for the sorption and chromatographic separation of metal ions. Acylation degrees of 59-90% are achieved after 0.5 h. IR spectra of the acylation products and near-UV-visible spectra for bonded aromatic azo compounds, based on 4-aminobenzamidopropyl-silica gel, are presented. Some positive and negative aspects of the gas-phase acylation are discussed. (author). 34 refs.; 2 figs.; 2 tabs
