  • Patent number: 11939679
    Abstract: The invention discloses a method for preparing an anticorrosive surface layer of a metal material in a marine environment by laser, which belongs to the technical field of laser processing. First, the laser cladding method is used to prepare a cladding surface layer on the surface of the metal material that is not easy to undergo chemical substitution reaction with the chlorides (NaCl, MgCl2 , CaCl2 etc.) in the seawater. Then, on the surface of the cladding surface layer, ultrafast laser processing is used to form a surface layer with a wetting angle (and water) greater than 90 degrees and with hydrophobic characteristics.

  • Publication number: 20140042075
    Abstract: The present invention provides a combined scale inhibitor and scale inhibiting device. The combined scale inhibitor contains organophosphorus filter materials, ceramic filter materials and polyphosphate filter materials. The organophosphorus filter materials are the granular filter materials of liquid organophosphorus scale and corrosion inhibitor while the said ceramic filter materials are the granular filter materials containing oxide ceramic powder. The said scale inhibiting device is comprised of a tank, a water inlet, a water outlet, an organophosphorus filter material layer, a ceramic filter material layer and a polyphosphate filter material layer in the said tank. The said organophosphorus filter material layer contains organophosphorus filter materials, which are the granular filter materials of liquid organophosphorus scale and corrosion inhibitor. The said ceramic filter material layer contains ceramic filter materials, which are the granular filter materials containing oxide ceramic powder.

  • Publication number: 20060128953
    Abstract: A method is provided for making large, uniform and individual crystals from aqueous solutions including the steps of obtaining a concentrated aqueous solution by means of evaporation; rapidly cooling the solution from a post-evaporation high temperature to a first lower temperature, wherein the first lower temperature is lower than the post-evaporation high temperature and further wherein the first lower temperature is an isothermal crystallization temperature of said solution; generating a batch of initial nuclei by inducing nucleation at the first lower temperature and starting crystal growth; uniformly spreading the initial nuclei into a bulk solution; maintaining simultaneous and rapid growth of crystals from the nuclei at the first lower temperature for a predetermined length of time; continuing the growth of the crystals to produce large, uniform and individual crystals for a predetermined length of time at a temperature that varies gradually from between a first lower temperature to a second lower temp

  • Patent number: 6305178
    Abstract: Investigations on the formation and growth behavior of ice crystallization in aqueous solutions reveal an important phenomenon—ice crystal transformation. It leads to very rapid growth of ice crystals and result in grain-shaped and agglomerated large crystals without inside entrainment of solute. This provides a practical basis for a new technology of freeze concentration. The efficient physical process for freeze concentration of aqueous solutions comprises, mainly, refrigerating solutions to a supercooled status without ice nucleation, or without ice formation on the heat transfer surface, instantaneously nucleating the supercooled solution to generate fine ice crystals and make the solution concentrated, producing large, grain/sphere-shaped ice crystals at high rate by growth, transformation and agglomeration of ice crystals under environment of well-controlled endo/exothermal balances.
