  • Publication number: 20250215798
    Abstract: A method and device for preventing rib spalling in a high-stress surrounding rock by hydraulic slotting are provided. The construction steps include: obtaining mechanical parameters of a surrounding rock and determine a width of each of pressure relief grooves; opening four drilling holes along an excavation direction of a roadway, and the four drilling holes are arranged at two sides of the roadway in pairs, and two of the drilling holes, located at the same side, are arranged at a bottom and a top of the roadway respectively; hydraulically slotting the drilling holes towards the roadway in a horizontal direction to form the pressure relief grooves; and excavating the surrounding rock to form the roadway, and the roadway is in communication with the pressure relief grooves.

  • Patent number: 12326222
    Abstract: A sealing structure of an underground high-pressure gas storage and a construction method thereof are provided. The sealing structure includes an annular lining structure, wherein the annular lining structure is surrounded by a plurality of concrete segments; closed steel sheets; the closed steel sheets are arranged at an inner side of the annular lining structure and used for connecting two adjacent concrete segments and plugging a gap between two adjacent concrete segments; and a sealing layer, wherein the sealing layer is arranged close to the inner side of the annular lining structure and forms a coating with the annular lining structure on the closed steel sheets.

  • Patent number: 9828354
    Abstract: The invention provides new methods for the direct umpolung self-condensation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) by organocatalysis, thereby upgrading the readily available substrate into 5,5?-di(hydroxymethyl) furoin (DHMF). While many efficient catalyst systems have been developed for conversion of plant biomass resources into HMF, the invention now provides methods to convert such nonfood biomass directly into DHMF by a simple process as described herein. The invention also provides highly effective new methods for upgrading other biomass furaldehydes and related compound to liquid fuels. The methods include the organocatalytic self-condensation (umpolung) of biomass furaldehydes into (C8-C12)furoin intermediates, followed by hydrogenation, etherification or esterification into oxygenated biodiesel, or hydrodeoxygenation by metal-acid tandem catalysis into premium hydrocarbon fuels.
