Die Geschwindigkeitskonstanten der Solvolyse-Reaktionen von 9-Chlormethylanthracen wurden bei verschiedenen Temperaturen in unterschiedlichen binadren Losungsmittelgemischen (Wasser/Aceton, Wasser/Acetonitril, Wasser/Methanol, Wasser/Athanol) mit Hilfe der Leitfahigkeitsmeßungen bestimmt. Die Aktivierungsparameter $E_a$, ${\Delta}H^{\neq}$ und ${\Delta}S^{\neq}$ wurden berechnet. Die Meßergebnisse deuten darauf hin, daß die Solvolyse von 9-Chlormethylanthracen in protonischen Losungsmitteln schneller ablauft als in aprotonischen Losungsmitteln; in den Meßreihen mit protonsichen bzw. mit aprotonischen Losungsmitteln steigt die Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit mit der Zunahme der Dielektrizitatskonstanten des Losungsmittels an, und die Aktivierungsparameter nehmen mit steigendem Wassergehalt zu. Es wurde festgestellt, daß die Reaktion nach einem $S_N1$-Mechanismus ablauft. Die experimentellen Daten deuten darauf hin, daß Wasser einerseits als Nucleophil und andererseits als allgemeine Base am Reaktionsmechanismus beteiligt ist.

Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) have been recognized as emerging environmental pollutants and are widely distributed all over the world. These compounds are hardly degradable and cause bioaccumulation and biomagnification during present for a long time in the environment: thereby after adversely biota and human bodies. It is difficult to remove PFCs using conventional water/wastewater treatment because of resistant property to photodecomposition, biodegradation and chemical decomposition. Moreover, domestic literature data on the pollution of PFCs in rivers and lakes are limited. In this paper, species, sources and risk of PFCs as well as behavior properties in drinking water/wastewater and treatment processes are demonstrated to encourage the domestic concern about PFCs.

Reactivity and reaction mechanism for the photosensitized generation of hydroxyl radical by various coumarin derivatives are investigated by means of ESR and laser flash photolysis methods. The nine kinds of coumarin derivatives show to be proceeded through the OH·radical generation mechanism, however 1-ethyl-3-nitro-1-nitrosoguanidine decomposes and produces the carbene intermediate before OH·radical generation reaction occurs. The nine coumarin derivatives show the signals, which are corresponded to DMPO-OH spin adducts. NaN3, EtOH and HCOONa act as a strong photosensitizer to quench OH·radical. The decay rate constants of the hydrated electrons in the case of added N2O show higher than added K3Fe(CN)6.

The prediction of hydrate pellet decomposition characteristics is required to design the regasification process of GTS (gas to solid) technology, which is considered as an economic alternative for LNG technology to transport natural gas produced from small and stranded gas wells. Mathematical model based on the conservation principles, the phase equilibrium relation, equation of gas state and phase change kinetics was set up and numerical solution procedure employing volume averaged fixed grid formulation and extended enthalpy method are implemented. Initially, porous methane hydrate pellet is at uniform temperature and pressure within hydrate stable region. The pressure starts to decrease with a fixed rate down to the final pressure and is kept constant afterwards while the bounding surface of pellet is heated by convection. The predicted convective heat and mass transfer accompanied by the decomposed gas flow through hydrate/ice solid matrix is reported focused on the comparison of spherical and cylindrical pellets having the same effective radius.

Glucose was added into 2% MSG solution and studied for its effect on MSG degradation during heating at $100{\sim}120^{\circ}C$ and initial pH of 4 and 5. It was found that thermal degradation of MSG was significantly increased as the glucose concentration increased up to 20%. The values of thermal degradation constant calculated from linear relationship between log(% MSG) and heating time was linearly increased as the glucose concentration increased. The increased effect was more significant at pH5 than pH4.

Rate of hydrolysis ethylene phosphate, dimethylphosphate and hydroxyethylmethylphosphate in neutral water have been measured. Hydrolysis of ethylene phosphate proceeds with P-0 bond cleavage $(k_{obs}=3{\times}10^{-7}s^{-1}\;at\;100^{\circ}C,\;{\Delta}H{\neq}=24\;kcal,\;{\Delta}S{\neq}=25.5\;eu)$. In constrast, hydrolysis of dimethylphosphate proceeds with C-O bond cleavage $(k_{obs}=3{\times}10^{-7}s^{-1}\;at\;150^{\circ}C)$. The rate constant for P-O bond cleavage of dimethylphosphate is estimated at $1{\times}10^{-11}s^{-1}\;at\;150^{\circ}C,\;({\Delta}H{\neq}=36\;kcal,\;{\Delta}S{\neq}=25.5\;eu)$. A phosphodiesterase catalyzed hydrolysis of dimethylphosphate is $10^{17}$ times faster than the simple water rate. The observed rate of hydrolysis of hydroxyethylmethylphosphate is comparable to that of dimethylphosphate indicating C-O bond cleavage $(k_{obs}=6{\times}10^{-7}s^{-1}\;at\;150^{\circ}C)$.

Methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) and methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) have been widely used as solvents in various industries. Biodegradation of MEK and MIBK by Pseudomonas putida KT-3, which could utilize MEK or MIBK as a sole carbon source, was characterized, and the cosubstrate interaction in MEK/MIBK mixture was also studied. Within the range of initial MEK concentration (from 0.5 to 5.5 mM), an increased substrate concentration increased the specific degradation rate of MEK by P putida KT-3 (from 3.15 to 10.58 mmol/g DCW$\cdot$h), but the rate sightly increased at 11.0 mM of initial MEK concentation (11.28 mmol/g DCW$\cdot$h). The similar degradation rates of MIBK (4.69-4.92 mmol/g DCW$\cdot$h) were obtained at more than 3.0 mM of initial MIBK concentation. Kinetic analysis on the degradation of MEK/MIBK mixture by P. putida KT-3 showed that MEK or MIBK acted as a competitive inhibitor. Maximum degradation rate ($V_{max}$), saturation constant ($K_{m}$) and inhibition constant ($K_{1}$) were as follows: $V_{max,MEK}$=12.94 mmol/g DCW$\cdot$h; $K_{m,MEK}$=1.72 mmol/L; $K_{l,MEK}$=1.30 mmol/L; $V_{max,MIBK}$=5.00 mmol/g-DCW$\cdot$h; $K_{m,MIBK}$=0.42 mmol/L; $K_{l,MEK}$=0.77 mmol/L.

Pyrolysis characteristics of sawdust and rice husk as biomass resources in a thermogravimetric analysis were determined. Experiments were carried out with a linear heating rate under inert atmosphere of $N_2$ gas. Pyrolysis of the biomass can be classified as a lower temperature reaction zone where the major component of holocellulose is thermally decomposed and a high temperature reaction zone where lignin is thermally decomposed. The obtained data was analyzed by the two-step consecutive reaction model. Activation energies of sawdust and rice husk are found to be respectively 82.5 kJ/mol and 85.1kJ/mol in the low temperature zone according to the first order reaction model and 19.7 kJ/mol, 22.0 kJ/mol in the high temperature zone according to the three-way transport model. The reaction rate constant with variation of heating rate can be well predicted by the kinetic compensation relation of Gaur-Reed.

The degradation of EBT (Eriochrome Black T) in an aqueous solution was investigated at various values of pH, Ferrate (VI) dosage, initial concentration, aqueous solution temperature. The maximum degradation efficiency was 95.42% at pH 7 and in that experimental condition, the kapp value was 872.87 M-1s-1. The degradation efficiency was proportional to the dosage of Ferrate (VI). Also, the initial rate constant of EBT degradation increased with decreasing of the EBT initial concentration. In addition, the degradation rate of EBT was increased from 74.04% to 95.42% when the temperature in the aqueous solution was increased from 10℃ to 45℃. The activation energy value was 11.9 kJ/mol for EBT degradation. Overall, the results of the degradation experiment showed that Ferrate (VI) could effectively oxidize the EBT in the aqueous phase.

The experiment was designed to compare pyrolysis kinetics of two different classes of imported coal. The pyrolysis behaviors of the coals were first observed with thermogravimetric analyzer(TGA). The kinetic analysis was further done based on a new distributed activation energy model(New DAEM). During the analysis, weight loss curves measured at three different heating rates were used to obtain the activation energy distribution function curve f(E) of a given coal sample where a mean activation energy is determined by its peak. The results show a significant difference in the mean activation energy between two coals for the pyrolytic reaction. The prediction of a chemical percolation devolatilization(CPD) model where the kinetics obtained from the New DAEM method were incorporated is in much closer agreement with an experimental data of TGA particularly for the bituminous coal.
