    Proceedings of the Combustion Institute Proceedings of the Combustion Institute 31 (2007) 1215–1222 www.elsevier.com/locate/proci High temperature ignition and combustion enhancement by dimethyl ether addition to methane–air mixtures q Zheng Chen, Xiao Qin, Yiguang Ju *, Zhenwei Zhao, Marcos Chaos, Frederick L. Dryer Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544, USA Abstract The effects of dimethyl ether (DME) addition on the high temperature ignition and burning properties of methane–air mixtures were studied experimentally and numerically. The results showed that for a homo- geneous system, a small amount of DME addition to methane resulted in a significant reduction in the high temperature ignition delay. The ignition enhancement effect by DME addition was found to exceed that possible with equivalent amounts of hydrogen addition, and it was investigated by using radical pool growth and computational singular perturbation analysis. For a non-premixed methane–air system, it was found that two different ignition enhancement regimes exist: a kinetic limited regime and a transport limited regime. In contrast to the dramatic ignition enhancement in the kinetic limited regime, the ignition enhancement in the transport limited regime was significantly less effective. Furthermore, laminar flame speeds as well as Markstein lengths were experimentally measured for methane–air flames with DME addi- tion. The results showed that the flame speed increases almost linearly with DME addition. However, the Markstein length and the Lewis number of the binary fuel change dramatically at small DME concentra- tions. Moreover, comparison between experiments and numerical simulations showed that only the most recent DME mechanism well reproduced the flame speeds of both DME–air and CH4–air flames.

Rodriguez and Julia Weathers-lyondell Chemical Company· Bernadette Corujo-Engineered Polymer Solutions Patricia Peterson-Avecia To camply with environmental regulations, formulators have reformulated to water-based systems using non-hazardous air pollutants (non-HAP) cosolvents and developed new resin technology. In fully formulated water-based systems, however, changing the solvent system to meet environmental regulations has wide ranging effects on viscosity, surface defects, film shrinkage, adhesion, and durability. Formulators often adjust paint viscosity by balancing the levels of cosolvents, surfactants, and rheology modifiers. Reformulating with non-HAPs solvents such as propylene oxide-based glycol ethers (PG-glycol ethers) helps reduce volah1e organic content WOC) to meet environmental compliance and eliminates HAPs reporting requirements. When replacing ethylene oxide-based glycol ethers (EG-glycol ethers) with their PG-glycol ethers, reformulation seems simple enough, particularly if evaporation rates and solubility parameters are matched. A drop-in replacement, however, requires optimization. This study compares the use ofPG-glycol ethers in four architectural latex paints and assesses their effects on rheology, drying, and some key performance attributes.

  • Reticulocytosis in Screen-Printing Workers Exposed to 2
    Song et al. Annals of Occupational and Environmental Medicine (2017) 29:54 DOI 10.1186/s40557-017-0210-z RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Reticulocytosis in screen-printing workers exposed to 2-butoxyethanol and 2- ethoxyethanol Seng-Ho Song, Seong-Kyu Kang*, Won-Jun Choi, Kyeong Min Kwak, Dong-Hoon Lee, Dyuk-Yoon Kang and Sang-Ha Lee Abstract Background: Studies on the hematologic toxicity of ethylene glycol ethers in humans are limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the association between exposure to solvents (containing 2-butoxyethanol and 2-ethoxyethanol) and hematological effects. Methods: Thirty-four screen-printing workers who were exposed to 2-butoxyethanol and 2-ethoxyethanol and 37 non- exposed clerical workers were selected using data from the health care facilities that provided regular health screening services. Student’s t-tests and Pearson’s chi-square tests were used to compare differences in hematological parameters between the exposed and the control groups. A multivariate analysis was performed using the multiple logistic regression models to adjust for other variables. Results: The chi-square test showed the reticulocyte percentages and corrected reticulocyte counts to be significantly higher in the exposed group. The t-tests showed a significant increase in white blood cell counts, reticulocyte percentages, and corrected reticulocyte count (i.e., reticulocyte index) in the exposed group, with p-values of 0.002, 0.004, and 0.002, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed the odds ratio for the corrected reticulocyte counts to be 16.30 for the exposed group, when compared with that of the control group. Conclusions: Exposure to 2-butoxyethanol and 2-ethoxyethanol was significantly associated with reticulocytosis, necessitating the implementation of preventive measures for workers prone to occupational exposure to ethylene glycol ethers.

This gas-phase process could be considered as a promising alternative for carbon dioxide recycling toward a (bio)fuel as DME. In this view, the production of DME from catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 appears as a technology able to face also the ever-increasing demand for alternative, environmentally-friendly fuels and energy carriers. Basic considerations on thermodynamic aspects controlling DME production from CO2 are presented along with a survey of the most innovative catalytic systems developed in this field. During the last years, special attention has been paid to the role of zeolite-based catalysts, either in the methanol-to-DME dehydration step or in the one-pot CO2-to-DME hydrogenation. Overall, the productivity of DME was shown to be dependent on several catalyst features, related not only to the metal-oxide phase—responsible for CO2 activation/hydrogenation—but also to specific properties of the zeolites (i.e., topology, porosity, specific surface area, acidity, interaction with active metals, distributions of metal particles, .
