Calcium-bromine-iron

A recent screening of several hundred possible reactions (Besenbruch et al 2001) has identified two candidate thermochemical cycles for hydrogen production from water (i.e., cycles that enable chemical reactions to take place at high temperatures) with high potential for efficiency and practical applicability to nuclear heat sources. These are the sulfur-iodine (S-I) and calcium-bromine-iron (Ca-Br) cycles. Also, Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) has identified the copper-chlorine (Cu-Cl) thermochemical cycle for this purpose (Doctor et al 2002). A hybrid sulfur-based process that does not require iodine but has a single electrochemical... 

Calcium-Bromine-Iron Cycle The calcium-bromine-iron (Ca-Br, or UT-3) cycle involves solid-gas interactions that may facilitate the reagent-product separations, as opposed to the all-fluid interactions in the SI cycle, but it will introduce the problems of solids handling, support, and attrition. This process is formed of the following reactions (Doctor et al., 2002) ... 

A numerical matrix correction technique is used to linearise fluorescent X-ray intensities from plant material in order to permit quantitation of the measurable trace elements. Percentage accuracies achieved on a standard sample were 13% for sulfur and phosphorus and better than 10% for heavier elements. The calculation employs all of the elemental X-ray intensities from the sample, relative X-ray production probabilities of the elements determined from thin film standards, elemental X-ray attenuation coefficients, and the areal density of the sample cm2. The mathematical treatment accounts for the matrix absorption effects of pure cellulose and deviations in the matrix effect caused by the measured elements. Ten elements are typically calculated simultaneously phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine, potassium, calcium, manganese, iron, copper, zinc and bromine. Detection limits obtained using a rhodium X-ray tube and an energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer are in the low ppm range for the elements manganese to strontium. 

Elements observed in this activity (copper, iron, cobalt, nickel, zinc, sodium, magnesium, calcium, bromine, and iodine) belong in the following families alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals and halogens. Place each element in its proper family. Is there any relationship between the element s family and the element s color ... 

Draw up a cation series and an anion series from the values of ° given in a textbook. Include in your series the following elements sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, aluminium, iron, copper, zinc, tin, hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine. For metals that form more than one ion in solution, use the most negative value of . This has the effect of presenting the metal at its most metal-like. The alternative is to enter the metal in the series more than once, with an appropriate label to indicate the ion concerned.

Sichere et al. [25] determined bromine concentrations in the 0.06-120mg/1 range in brines, directly by X-ray fluorescence using selenium as an internal standard to eliminate interference effects. Lower concentrations of bromine must be concentrated on filter paper containing an ion exchange resin. The same concentrations of chlorine can be determined with the addition of barium to reduce the interferences from carbonates and sulfates. Relative standard deviation was better than 1%. The interference of some other ions (e.g., calcium, potassium, magnesium, sodium, and iron) was examined. 

In these procedures 1 litre of seawater was shaken with 60 mg charcoal for 15 min. Complexing agents were added in amounts of 1 mg, dissolved in 1 ml of acetone. The pH was 5.5, or it was adjusted to 8.5 by addition of 0.1 M ammonia. The charcoal was filtered off and irradiated. Results of three sets of experiments with charcoal alone, charcoal in the presence of dithizone, and charcoal in the presence of sodium diethyldithiocarbamate are compared. The following elements are adsorbed to an extent from 75 to 100% silver, gold, cerium, cadmium, cobalt, chromium, europium, iron, mercury, lanthanum, scandium, uranium, and zinc. The amount of sodium is reduced to about 10 6, bromine to about 10 5, and calcium to about 10 2. 

In the other study. X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy was used to analyze trace element concentrations by observing dusts on 37 ram diameter cellulose acetate filters (20). Twenty-three elutriator and twenty-three area samples from 10 different bales of cotton were analyzed. The average fraction of total dust accounted for by the elements analyzed was 14.4% amd 7.6% for vertical elutriator and area samples, respectively. Although the variation in absolute quantity of atn element was high, the relative abundance of an element was consistent for measurements within a bale. Averaged over all the samples analyzed, calcium was the most abundant element detected (3.6%), followed by silicon (2.9%), potassium (2.7%), iron (1.1%), aluminum (1.1%), sulfur (1.0%), chlorine (0.8%) and phosphorous (0.6%). Other elements detected in smaller aunounts included titanium, manganese, nickel, copper, zinc, bromine, rubidium, strontium, barium, mercury amd lead. 

Results For the St. Louis data, the target transformation analysis results for the fine fraction without July Uth and 5th are given in table 6. The presence of a motor vehicle source, a sulfur source, a soil or flyash source, a titanium source, and a zinc source are indicated. The sulfur, titanium and zinc factors were determined from the simple initial test vectors for those elements. The concentration of sulfur was not related to any other elements and represents a secondary sulfate aerosol resulting from the conversion of primary sulfur oxide emissions. Titanium was found to be associated with sulfur, calcium, iron, and barium. Rheingrover ( jt) identified the source of titanium as a paint-pigment factory located to the south of station 112. The zinc factor, associated with the elements chlorine, potassium, iron and lead, is attributed to refuse incinerator emissions. This factor could also represent particles from zinc and/or lead smelters, though a high chlorine concentration is usually associated with particles from refuse incinerators ( ). The sulfur concentration in the refined sulfate factor is consistent with that of ammonium sulfate. The calculated lead concentration in the motor vehicle factor of ten percent and a lead to bromine ratio of about 0.28 are typical of values reported in the literature (25). The concentration of lead in... 

The presence of a calcium hydroxide carbon composite captures the major portion of chlorine and bromine content out from the liquid fraction. In contrast, in the presence of PET, even a combination of calcium a hydroxide carbon composite and an iron oxide carbon composite is not effective to remove halogen the liquid products completely (51).

Air contains molecular nitrogen and oxygen. They may be separated by liquefaction and fractional distillation along with inert gases, especially argon. Salt or brine can be used as sources of chlorine and sometimes bromine, sodium hydroxide, and sodium carbonate, whereas metals such as iron, aluminum, copper, or titanium as well as phosphors, potassium, calcium, and fluorine are obtained from mineral ores. Saltpeter was once an important source of nitrogen compounds, but today most ammonia and nitrates are produced synthetically from nitrogen gas in the air. 

B. About 20 elements are called minerals. They also play a role in human nutrition. The minerals known to be essential for good health are calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, magnesium, iron, manganese, copper, iodine, cobalt, fluorine, and zinc. Traces of sihcon, boron, arsenic, strontium, aluminum, bromine, molybdenum, selenium, and nickel may also be required. These elements are eaten in the form of their compounds, but it does not matter much which compounds.

A small amount of iodine and iron powder is added to a solution of 142 g. (1.0 mole) of 2-methylnaphthalene in 300 ml. of carbon tetrachloride. The mixture is cooled to 0°, and a solution of 160 g. (1.0 mole) of bromine in 300 ml. of carbon tetrachloride is added (8 hours) with stirring and exclusion of light, during which time the temperature is not allowed to rise above 5°. (Hood.) After standing overnight, the solution is washed with 10% sodiiun hydroxide solution and water followed by drying over calcium chloride. Distillation gives 186 g. (84%) of l-bromo-2-methylnaphthalene, b.p. 152-156°/14 mm.
