Abstract: A heater includes a convection section with columns and tube sheets coupled to the columns with tubes received in the tube sheets. The convection section includes a space between the tube sheets associated with corresponding pairs of columns. A structural frame is coupled to the columns and positioned in the space to slidably receive one or more catalyst support beds for loading or unloading a catalyst into the convection section through a lateral side of the convection section of the heater. The structural frame may include beams, struts, slide plates, and other frame elements that assist with supporting the catalyst support beds and enable sliding of the catalyst support beds with respect to the structural frame.

Abstract: This present disclosure provides a core-shell quantum dot, a preparation method thereof, and a light-emitting device containing the same. The core of the core-shell quantum dot is CdSeXS(1-X), and the quantum dot shells include a first shell and a second shell, the first shell being selected from one or more of ZnSe, ZnSeYS(1-Y) and Cd(Z)Zn(1-Z)S, the second shell covering the first shell being one of Cd(Z)Zn(1-Z)S and ZnS, the maximum emission peak of the core-shell quantum dot is less than or equal to 480 nm, 0<X<1, 0<Y<1, 0<Z<1. The CdSeXS(1-X) core has a smaller bandgap and a shallower HOMO energy level, making hole injection easier.

Abstract: A self-mechanical-cleaning toilet system with water-splash cleaning options provides a more sanitary and comfortable bathroom experience with minimum water usage. The system includes a receiving trough, a removal scraper, a guide bar, a back door, a first translation mechanism, a second translation mechanism, and a controller. The receiving trough collects the excrement, while the removal scraper moves the excrement out. The guide bar controls the movement of the removal scraper along the receiving trough. The back door separates the receiving trough from an excrement storage compartment/sewer system. The first translation mechanism moves the removal scraper, while the second translation mechanism moves the back door as necessary. The controller monitors and controls the cycles of the operation of the first translation mechanism and the second translation mechanism. The water-splash cleaning options dispense specified amounts of fluids for cleaning and sanitation purposes.

Abstract: The present application discloses a conductive high-strength diamond/amorphous carbon composite material and a preparation process thereof. The diamond/amorphous carbon composite material is composed of an amorphous carbon continuous phase and multiple separate diamond phases embedded in the amorphous carbon continuous phase, wherein the diamond phases exhibit an ordered sp3 hybrid state, and the amorphous carbon continuous phase exhibits a disordered sp2 hybrid state.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for hydrotreating inferior naphtha fraction, comprising: (1) warming a recycle oil in a heating device; (2) mixing the inferior naphtha fraction with the recycle oil before and/or after the heating device; and (3) feeding the mixture of the inferior naphtha fraction and the recycle oil into a separating unit, wherein the gas-liquid separation is realized at least to obtain a gas phase and a liquid phase, wherein the gas phase comprises gasified inferior naphtha, wherein the gas phase enters a hydrotreating reactor to undergo hydrotreating, and wherein part of the liquid phase circulates to the heating device as the recycle oil; wherein warming of the recycle oil is controlled to ensure the temperature of gas phase from the separator at least reaches the inlet temperature of the hydrotreating reactor. Comparing with the prior art, the inventive process effectively solves the coking problem of the hydrogenating unit for inferior naphtha fraction.

Abstract: The present invention relates to temperature control for refrigerators, which automatically adjusts the on-temp/off-temp values in view of the fluctuation of the ambient temperature. The present invention also relates to a refrigerator on which a sensor of simplified circuit design is reasonably allocated. In accordance with the present invention, ambient temperature is divided into a plurality of particular temperature divisions, the on-temp and off-temp values preferred for refrigerator operation in each corresponding temperature division are determined by experiments. By means of a temperature sensor, on-temp/off-temp values appropriately corresponding to a particular temperature division are applied to keep the temperature of the refrigerator at a required level.
