  • Patent number: 10808502
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for optimizing sensor network node location in a geological CO2 storage area. In the method, by analyzing data in a monitoring area, such as geological data, geographical data, and meteorological data, analyzing influence factors of a CO2 leakage event and determining a sensitivity partition, designing different coverage control schemes of monitoring sensor network nodes, or intensively or sparsely arranging sensor monitoring nodes, a coverage network is described and optimally expressed on the basis of Delaunay triangulation. In the method for optimizing sensor network node location in a geological carbon dioxide storage area, the arrangement density of wireless sensor network nodes can be dynamically adjusted according to geological and geographical features of a detection area, and the arrangement optimization of a dynamic monitoring sensor network for coal seam carbon dioxide injection area leakage can be realized.

  • Patent number: 8779209
    Abstract: The present invention provided a method for salting-out extraction of acetone and butanol from a fermentation broth, characterized in that one type, or two or more types of salts and one type, or two or more types of extractants are added to an acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation broth, in which the salt saturation achieves 10%˜100%; and the volume ratio of the fermentation broth containing salts to the extractants is 1:0.1˜1:5. The mixture is allowed to stand until phase separation is formed. The top phase is a solvent phase or extraction phase enriched with acetone and butanol whereas the bottom phase is a salt-enriched phase or raffinate phase. This method involves many advantages, such as the simplified operation procedure, accelerated separation process and low separation cost, and therefore becomes a promising method of separating acetone and butanol in industrial application.
