Thermal Decomposition of Hematite Ore Fines in Air

Thermal decomposition of hematite plays an important role during pelletization and the iron fine‐based smelting processes such as HIsarna and flash shaft smelter. The temperature at which pure hematite decomposition occurs depends on the partial pressure of oxygen in the gaseous atmosphere. In the air, that is, at = 0.21, the hematite decomposes at 1386 °C. In the present work, for an ore of a given composition, the effect of gangue on the thermal decomposition of hematite is experimentally determined using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). A decomposition temperature of 1320 °C is found in the platinum crucible after analyzing the TGA curve. Thermodynamic calculations have been carried out using FactSage8.1 to investigate the effect of gangue on the stability of hematite. Thermodynamics calculations confirm that the hematite present in the ore decomposes at a lower temperature with the increase in the gangue content. Additionally, if gangue content can affect the temperature at which dissociation of hematite occurs, it is expected that the crucible material can also affect the dissociation. Interestingly most of the reported TGA experiments are performed either in alumina crucibles or it was not reported in the literature. Therefore, the effect of crucible materials, namely alumina and platinum, is also investigated.

PSIV-24 Evaluation of different colostrum feeding volumes on serum immunoglobulin G concentration and metabolic profiles of calves in high altitude area

Abstract Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is the highest plateau in the world, reputed as “the roof of the world” and “the world’s third pole”. Its ecological environment is characterized by low atmospheric oxygen pressure, cold, and limited feed supplies. This study aimed to investigate the serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) concentration and metabolic profiles of calves in high altitude area (3,650 m) fed different volumes of colostrum [8, 12, or 15% of birth body weight (BW)] using untargeted metabolomics strategies. Neonatal Holstein hybrid heifer calves (n = 44) were randomly divided into 1 of the 3 colostrum feeding amounts: 8% of birth BW (Low volume, L), 12% of birth BW (Middle volume, M), and 15% of birth BW (High volume, H) in colostrum. To safeguard the efficiency of colostrum intake, the colostrum was fed to calves within 0.5 h and 6 h after birth. The serum samples at 24 h after birth were collected for IgG concentration determination by indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and for LC-MS/MS metabonomic analysis. As the volumes of colostrum increased, there was a linearly increased in the serum IgG concentration (P < 0.01). Differential metabolites were selected according to the following 3 conditions: minimum fold change (FC) > 2, P-value < 0.01 in single-dimensional statistical analysis, and variable importance in projection (VIP) > 1 in the OPLS-DA model. Multivariate statistical analyses were performed to visualize differences among groups. Based on the screening criteria, a total of 3 differential metabolites (22 alpha-Hydroxy-campesterol, N-Myristoyl Histidine, and Calcitetrol) were detected between L and M, of which all differential metabolites were down-regulated. Six differential metabolites were detected between M and H, of which PC[P-18:1(11Z)/18:1(12Z)-2OH(9,10)] was up-regulated and 5 differential metabolites including 1-arachidonoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-phosphate, propanoyl phosphate, ascorbic acid 6-palmitate, 20-hydroxyecdysone, and 6’’’-deamino-6’’’-hydroxyparomomycin II were down-regulated. There were 28 differed metabolites (including leucyl-tryptophan, calcitetrol, 3’’-Oxoribostamycin) between L and H, of which 9 differential metabolites were up-regulated and 19 differential metabolites were down-regulated (Figure 1). Based on KEGG metabolic enrichment pathway analysis and pathway topology analysis, porphyrin metabolism was identified as the most impacted pathway between L and H (Figure 2). In conclusion, increasing colostrum volumes significantly increased serum IgG concentrations at 24 h after birth, favoring the success of the transfer of passive immunity. Alterations in serum metabolome of calves in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau fed different volumes of colostrum were successfully revealed by untargeted metabolomics. The role of the identified differential metabolites and enriched pathway in the transfer of passive immunity in calves at high altitude deserves further investigation.

Modulation on the magnetic and electrical transport properties of Pr0.5Ba0.5MnO3-δ thin films by oxygen vacancies

In this work, the magnetic and electronic transport properties of the epitaxial Pr0.5Ba0.5MnO3-δ (PBMO) thin films via the modulation of the oxygen vacancies have been investigated. PBMO thin films were fabricated by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) at different oxygen ambient pressures (20, 50, 70, and 250 mTorr). From the XRD and STEM measurements, the oxygen vacancies content in the film increases with the decrease of growth pressure, leading to an expansion of the out-of-plane lattice constant of the film. The PNR (Polarized Neutron Reflectometry) was employed for a precise magnetization and oxygen stoichiometry depth profile of the PBMO thin films and further quantitatively characterize the oxygen vacancies’ content of the films. Thus, an increasing number of oxygen vacancies suppress the double exchange interaction and carriers hopping are suppressed, resulting in a significant increase in resistivity, as well as a decrease in saturation magnetization and ferromagnetic Curie temperature.

Seasonal dynamics of cardiovascular events in the Russian Federation

Aim. To study the seasonal dynamics of cardiovascular events (CVE) in the Russian Federation (RF) using medical and statistical data for the period 2016-2019, and also to establish an association of CVE risk with meteorological conditions.Material and methods. We used data on hospitalizations for 2016-2019 for hemorrhagic stroke (HS), ischemic stroke (IS), myocardial infarction (MI), and acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Results. Data analysis showed that the maximum number of HSs occurred in winter and spring, and the minimum in summer. The maximum number of ISs was recorded in spring and summer, while the minimum in winter and autumn. ACS occurred more often in winter and spring, MI — more often in spring. ACS was accompanied by MI in 44% of cases. In winter, the probability of HS increased with decreasing latitude.In summer, the risk of HS and IS was greater at lower air temperatures. In summer, the probability of IS and MI was associated with lower values of atmospheric pressure and partial density of oxygen (ρO2). In winter, the risk of IS increased at highr atmospheric pressure values. No convincing evidence was obtained of the influence of geomagnetic activity on the seasonal dynamics of the CVEs either throughout the Russian Federation or in the circumpolar regions.Conclusion. As a result, meteorological conditions influence the seasonal risk of CVEs. A decrease in ρO2 in summer significantly increases the CVE risk associated with ischemia, which should be taken into account when preventing CVEs.

Navigating the magnetic contribution of the commonly used single-crystal substrates SrTiO3 (100) and LaAlO3 (100) in weak magnetic thin films

In recent years, thin films of weak ferromagnetic materials have been in huge demand; however, probing their magnetic characteristics has been difficult due to contributions from underlying substrates. In the present study, we have analyzed the magnetic properties of the commonly used single-crystal SrTiO3 (100) and LaAlO3 (100) substrates and performed a time-dependent annealing protocol in vacuum and ambient oxygen pressure to mitigate the intrinsic weak ferromagnetic contributions from these substrates arising due to the presence of disorder or defects such as vacancies in the pristine substrates. It is shown that after proper air annealing, the substrate magnetic background becomes diamagnetic. When such air-annealed diamagnetic substrates are used for the deposition of low-thickness films carrying low magnetic moments such as SrRuO3 and SrMnO3 thin films, their magnetic transitions are explicitly observed. The proposed annealing protocols help to improve the signal from weak magnetic samples. This allows us to analyze the film’s magnetic properties without worrying about the contribution from the substrate.

Influence of the argon admixture on the reactive oxide species formation inside an atmospheric pressure oxygen plasma jet

In this work, a new atmospheric pressure plasma generated in a wire-to-multiwire dielectric barrier discharge on pure oxygen is introduced. This special geometry of 13 wires (one central wire and 12 ones on the external tube) is feeding by a radio frequency (RF) power (13.56 MHz, 1 kW) and produces a stable discharge. The capacity of this device to produce oxygen reactive species and the influence of Ar gas mixture (1–3%) on this production are investigated. The main characteristics of this DBD plasma are measured using optical emission spectroscopy techniques. The rotational, vibrational, and excitation temperatures along with the electron density are determined from OH (A2Σ → X2Π) band and the Stark broadening of the hydrogen atomic line at 486.1 nm, respectively. The temporal evolution and spatial distribution of charged and reactive species in this plasma are also numerically studied by a Global scheme and a two-dimension fluid model based on drift–diffusion approximation. A kinetic dominated by electron collisions is obtained for this plasma. The generation and movement of electrons, positive and negative ions in the wire-to-multiwire configuration are analyzed and discussed according to changes the electric field and plasma frequency. It is shown that the density of both charged and reactive species increases by adding a small amount of argon to the oxygen plasma while the electron temperature reduces in this configuration. A high level of agreement is observed between the experimental and simulation results for the electron density and temperature in this DBD plasma.

Self-assembly of Dawson-type H6P2W18O62@[Cu6O(TZI)3(H2O)6]4 for high-performance aerobic oxidation desulfurization of fuel.

Because global sulfur emission has escalated, the development of high-efficiency deep desulfurization techniques has become imperative. Herein, to design a high-activity heterogeneous catalyst for the aerobic oxidation desulfurization (AODS) of fuel, Dawson-type polyoxometalate (H6P2W18O62 abbreviated as D-P2W18), characterized by its high activity and strong oxidative capacity, was applied to react with CuCl2·2H2O and H3TZI via a one-pot hydrothermal method. Consequently, blue crystalline H6P2W18O62@[Cu6O(TZI)3(H2O)6]4 (abbreviated as D-P2W18@rht-MOF-1; rht-MOF-1 = [Cu6O(TZI)3(H2O)6]4·nH2O) was afforded. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that D-P2W18 was successfully encapsulated in two different cages of rht-MOF-1, which is distinct from the crystal structure of Keggin-type POMs@rht-MOF-1. It represents the first crystal structure of Dawson-type POMs@rht-MOF-1. When D-P2W18@rht-MOF-1 was employed as a catalyst for AODS under ambient oxygen pressure with the assistance of surfactant dioctadecyl dimethyl ammonium chloride (DODMAC), it demonstrated remarkable catalytic capability and recyclability for both model fuel and commercial diesel. Further, the AODS reaction mechanism, identified as a free radical oxidation-reduction process, was verified by way of radical quenching experiments, EPR and XPS analysis. This approach offers a feasible route for the synthesis of new Dawson-type POMs@MOFs of heterogeneous catalysts for highly active AODS of fuel.

Far-field signature of fire in low gravity: Influence of ambient oxygen content and pressure on size distribution of smoke particles

Fire detection in space habitats is hindered by the unique characteristics of smoke particles released by weakly buoyant flames. For the first time, non-invasive measurements of particle concentration, size, and light absorption properties are performed in the downstream flow of a flame spreading in microgravity. The studied flame spreads over Low Density PolyEthylene (LDPE) coated Nickel/Chrome (NiCr) wires in an opposed oxidizer flow. The far-field signature can then be contrasted with previous measurements performed over the same configurations and related to the morphology of soot particles sampled in and behind the flame.Following measurements regarding the impact of gravity, the influence of ambient pressure and oxygen content on the characteristics of the particles is reported in microgravity. Increased pressure boosts the soot production rate, leading to higher concentration levels of particles detected for any class of particle size. Higher pressure also causes larger aggregates that exhibit a higher level of polydispersity among the constituting primary particles. This tends to enhance light absorption, more specifically at larger particle size. Less intuitively, increased oxygen content accelerates the pyrolysis rate, therefore hastening soot particles’ maturity, and ultimately increasing the detected soot concentration. In addition, enhanced oxygen content reduces organic carbon within particles, boosting light absorption regardless of the particle size. The far-field signature and its sensitivity to the ambient conditions are in decent agreement with observations of soot particles collected at the trailing edge of the flame. As a result, combining higher oxygen content and lower pressure in future space habitats as projected by the main space agencies can cancel out the effect on the detection threshold of a given flame if this threshold only includes the concentration level.

Oxidation Behavior of Atmospheric Plasma Sprayed NiAl Coating at High Pressure Oxygen Atmosphere

The high-temperature and high-pressure oxygen-rich combustion gases often cause the high temperature gas conduit in rocket engine to suffer severe oxidation, resulting in a reduced service life. The present study deposited a dense NiAl coating on GH4202 superalloy using atmospheric plasma spraying and investigated its oxidation behavior in a high temperature and high-pressure oxygen atmosphere. The results showed that the NiAl coating presented excellent bonding with the superalloy substrate throughout tests. The uncoated GH4202 substrate was severely oxidized during high pressure oxygen atmosphere. It was found that only a continuous very thin Al2O3 oxide scale evolved on the NiAl coating surface and no oxidation was observed at the interface between the NiAl coating and GH4202 substrate. Moreover, no significant inner oxidation occurred to NiAl coating. Therefore, the present APS NiAl coating can provide effective protection of superalloy from oxidation at high pressure oxygen combustion gas atmosphere.

Analog resistive switching behavior in BiCoO3 thin film

In this work, resistive switching behaviour of BiCoO3 (BCO) thin film has been reported. The BCO thin film was grown on ITO coated corning glass substrate using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique at a substrate temperature of 550 ˚C in the presence of oxygen ambient pressure of 200 mT. The Al/BCO/ITO device was found to exhibit analog bipolar resistive switching behaviour, as no electroforming was needed in this study. The device was found to be compliance free. The current voltage characteristics was studied and found it follows Ohmic and SCLC conduction mechanism in LRS mode and Ohmic, SCLC and Schottky emission conductions in HRS mode for both positive and negative cycles respectively. The endurance test of the Al/BCO/ITO device was performed to study the switching capability of the fabricated device upto 103 cycles and found stable. Retention characteristics were also studied and found stable over a period of time > 103 s. The device active area dependent studies was included and found that the device shows interface type RS for both LRS and HRS mode at 0.5 V and −0.5 V the resistance was found to be decreasing on increasing device active area. A conduction model was included to justify the interfacial conduction in the present device. Thus, non-volatile nature and stablility of the present Al/BCO/ITO RRAM device makes it a potential candidate to future analog RRAM devices.

Transferrin and Erythropoietin Increased Levels Correlate with Thrombosis at High Altitude

Living at high altitude involves great interest because of the challenging multiple adaptive responses to a hypoxic environment. Native Bolivian Andeans have lived at an altitude of 4000 m in The Andes mountains for about 14,000 years exposed to a low atmospheric pressure (453 mmHg) and low oxygen concentration (12,7%). It was described Andeans adaptation to high altitude is mainly related to cardiovascular issues (PMID: 29100088), with a low significantly genetic selection in HIF pathway components responsible of erythropoiesis regulation (PMID: 36980912), so that they have adapted to exist with increased hemoglobin concentrations. Thus, Andeans can be prevalent to undergone hematological and thromboembolic disorders. Thrombotic events have been reported to be increased at high altitude, and this recently associated to increased transferrin (Tf) (PMID: 36040436), likewise to increased erythropoietin (Epo) (Amaru, RevMed 2022). Increased Tf were described to be induced by both iron deficiency and hypoxia via HIF (PMID: 9242677). In addition, iron deficiency was postulated to inhibit the function of prolyl hydroxylase 2 (PHD2) in the hydroxylation of HIF-2, necessary for recognition and degradation by VHL (PMID:22304911). Under normal conditions, Tf is bound to fibrinogen at a molar ratio of 4:1, leading to plasma Tf sequestration by fibrinogen and leaving little Tf free in the circulation. While at hypoxia conditions, abnormally upregulated Tf potentiates thrombin, factor XIIa and inhibits antithrombin, inducing hypercoagulability (PMID:36040436). Similarly, increased HIF1a at high altitude increases Tf promoting the transferrin gene expression, which contains HIF-1α binding sites in its enhancer region (PMID:36844187). HIF is a DNA-binding transcription factor for activating expression of Epo gene (PMID:32561149). Epo, in turn, is increased due to the hyperegulation of HIF as expected at low atmospheric pressure environments. Epo activates the hypoxia-inducible factor that leads to Epo synthesis to stimulate red blood cell production, which also increases the demand for iron to synthesize hemoglobin (PMID:21078592). This, added to a decreased iron and increased HIF 1a, gives rise to a hyperregulation of Tf. Epo has been described to have prothrombotic properties and be related to thrombotic events (PMID:10779449; Amaru, RevMed 2022). In this sense, to further observe a correlation of transferrin and erythropoietin increased levels with the risk of thrombotic events at high altitude, we studied patients with erythrocytosis, anemia and polycythemia vera. We analyzed clinical, lab tests and epidemiological data of 920 patients with Chronic Mountain Sickness erythrocytosis (CMS-e) (n=560), anemia (n=372), and Polycythemia Vera (PV) (n=20), all Bolivian Andeans born and residing at 4000 m. Considering at this altitude normal hemoglobin concentrations vary from 14-17 g/dl in women and 15-18 g/dl in men, erythrocytosis condition comprises Hb levels >18 g/dl in women and >19 g/dl in men (Amaru et al, Rev Hematol Mex, 2016); similarly, it embraces Hb <12 g/dl for women and <13 g/dl for men in anemias (PMID: 23317073). Positive JAK F617V tests were corroborated in PV patients. Iron deficiency correlation considered serum ferritin <30 ug/L and MCV <80 fL (Clark et al, Nutrition, 2008). Eco-doppler study records confirmed the occurrence of thrombotic events. Data analysis was performed through Excel 16.29.1 and SPSS program, Chi-squared, Fishers and Pearson tests were done. We observed significative increased Tf levels in erythrocytosis, anemia, and PV patients mainly on those presenting iron levels deficiency. Epo was highly increased in erythrocytosis patients with iron deficiency. These results correlated with the incidence of thrombotic events in erythrocytosis (CMS-e) and anemia patients with iron deficiency. Age was also relevant in both groups. (Table 1). The increase of Epo levels correlated with thrombosis in erythrocytosis and PV patients with iron deficiency (Table 1). Transferrin and Erythropoietin increased levels at high altitude correlated with thrombosis in Chronic Mountain Sickness erythrocytosis and iron deficiency anemia patients. However, Increased Tf did not correlate with thrombosis in PV patients at high altitude. Our data confirm that increased Tf and Epo have prothrombogenic properties in CMS-e, iron deficiency anemia patients at high altitude.

Electric Field Enhanced Ammoxidation of Aldehydes Using Supported Fe Clusters Under Ambient Oxygen Pressure

AbstractHeterogeneous catalytic ammoxidation provides an eco‐friendly route for the cyanide‐free synthesis of nitrile compounds, which are important precursors for synthetic chemistry and pharmaceutical applications. However, in general such a process requires high pressures of molecular oxygen at elevated temperatures to accelerate the oxygen reduction and imine dehydrogenation steps, which is highly risky in practical applications. Here, we report an electric field enhanced ammoxidation system using a supported Fe clusters catalyst (Fe/NC), which enables efficient synthesis of nitriles from the corresponding aldehydes under ambient air pressure at room temperature (RT). A synergistic effect between the external electric field and the Fe/NC catalyst promotes the ammonia activation and the dehydrogenation of the generated imine intermediates and avoids the unwanted backwards reaction to aldehydes. This electric field enhanced ammoxidation system presents high efficiency and selectivity for the conversion of a series of aldehydes under mild conditions with high durability, rendering it an attractive process for the green synthesis of nitriles with fragile functional groups.

Growth of GSAG:Ce scintillator by floating zone method under pressurized oxygen atmosphere

A single crystal of Gd2.88Sc1.89Al3.23O12:Ce (GSAG:Ce) garnet scintillator was grown by the crucible-free floating zone method in an advanced optical furnace with laser heaters equipped with a Pt/Rh passive afterheater. The effect of the growth process under pure oxygen accessible exclusively in the floating zone method was studied. Reported results show the potential of utilization of the (laser-diode) floating zone method for the preparation of oxide-based scintillators with high melting temperatures without costly crucibles. An unprecedented usage of oxygen overpressure is demonstrated, which results in partial stabilization of the cerium center in the tetravalent state.

Low-temperature homoepitaxial growth of β-Ga2O3 thin films by atmospheric pressure plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition technique

Low-temperature homoepitaxial growth of β-Ga2O3(-201) has been successfully demonstrated by the atmospheric pressure plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition technique. To search for low-temperature growth, temperature-dependent studies were carried out between 350 and 600 °C. A high N2 gas flow rate, low gallium source concentration, and high oxygen flow rate ratio played key roles in growing independent and homogeneous multiple nuclei of Ga2O3, leading to three-dimensional grain growth mode, single crystallinity, and the highest growth rate of ⁓0.17 µm/h at 350 °C. The highly reactive atmospheric pressure oxygen plasma actively led to epitaxial growth. The low thermal budget homoepitaxial growth is a record reduction reported thus far.

The Brain at High Altitude: From Molecular Signaling to Cognitive Performance.

The brain requires over one-fifth of the total body oxygen demand for normal functioning. At high altitude (HA), the lower atmospheric oxygen pressure inevitably challenges the brain, affecting voluntary spatial attention, cognitive processing, and attention speed after short-term, long-term, or lifespan exposure. Molecular responses to HA are controlled mainly by hypoxia-inducible factors. This review aims to summarize the cellular, metabolic, and functional alterations in the brain at HA with a focus on the role of hypoxia-inducible factors in controlling the hypoxic ventilatory response, neuronal survival, metabolism, neurogenesis, synaptogenesis, and plasticity.

Hyperbaric oxygen to save the brain

Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy, the administration of pure oxygen at a pressure greater than the pressure of atmospheric oxygen, is a promising treatment for a range of neurological conditions, including traumatic brain injuries, Alzheimer's disease and comatose states. The research exploring the use of HBO therapy for neurological conditions is extremily exciting, and in this article, Sarah Palmer presents some key studies, demonstrating their findings and highlighting just how promising this potential therapy is.

Thin Films Fabricated by Pulsed Laser Deposition for Electrocatalysis

Mist-CVD-derived Hf0.55Zr0.45O2 ferroelectric thin films post-annealed by rapid thermal annealing

We have newly applied Rapid Thermal Annealing (RTA) for the post-annealing of mist chemical-vapor-deposition (CVD)-derived Hf1−xZrxO2 (HZO) thin films. A ferroelectric polarization-electric field (P–E) curve was confirmed typically with noticeable polarization reversal currents. These ferroelectric properties of the HZO thin films provided quantitative estimation for Pr and Ec of ∼20 µC/cm2 and 1–1.5 MV/cm, respectively, compared to those reported from other growth methods, such as atomic-layer-deposition (ALD). It was revealed that the background leakage should be further reduced in a mist-CVD HZO film compared to those by ALD recently reported. The origin of the leakage was strongly related to the oxygen vacancy (Vo) generated in the film and near the HZO/bottom electrode interface. Nonetheless, it was found effective to use atmospheric pressure in air or oxygen in the post-RTA process for reducing leakage. In general, endurance behaviors for the mist-CVD HZO film revealed similar to those for samples prepared by other methods for both “wake-up” and “fatigue” phenomena, showing that the mist-CVD HZO film endured up to 2 × 109 counts. Finally, we expect that the mist-CVD HZO thin film would become a candidate for fabricating large-scale integration-oriented ferroelectric devices due to the intrinsic merits of the method.
