Abstract: An object of the disclosure is to provide a method of efficiently producing a highly-pure vanadium electrolytic solution from a combustion residue that is discharged from facilities such as refineries and power plants and contains uncombusted carbon. The method of producing a vanadium electrolytic solution for redox flow cell (RFB) includes a vanadium eluate generation step of obtaining a vanadium eluate in which vanadium is dissolved. The vanadium is contained in a combustion residue obtained after combustion of a fossil fuel. The method further includes a precipitation step of mixing a sulfide precipitant into the vanadium eluate to precipitate a solid substance of precipitate in a reduction state and a wet oxidation step including a process of adding dilute sulfuric acid to the solid substance separated from the solution to generate a vanadium sulfate solution.

Abstract: A redox flow battery includes: a positive electrolyte storage tank; a negative electrolyte storage tank; a cell stack; a positive electrolyte outward path that sends positive electrolyte to positive electrode chambers in the cell stack; a positive electrolyte return path that sends positive electrolyte to the positive electrolyte storage tank; a negative electrolyte outward path that sends negative electrolyte to negative electrode chambers of the cells; a negative electrolyte return path that sends negative electrolyte to the negative electrolyte storage tank; an entrance open circuit voltage measuring portion that measures an upstream open circuit voltage between the positive electrolyte inside the positive electrolyte outward path and the negative electrolyte inside the negative electrolyte outward path; and an exit open circuit voltage measuring portion that measures a downstream open circuit voltage between the positive electrolyte inside the positive electrolyte return path and the negative electrolyte

Abstract: The thermally conductive resin material of the present invention has an excellent thermal conductive property without impairing the intrinsic practical properties such as the forming processability, lightness in weight and mechanical strength possessed by resins and has an anisotropic thermal conductive property capable of controlling the directionality and the transfer amount of the thermal conduction. The thermally conductive resin material of the present invention is a thermally conductive resin material including a base material of a thermoplastic resin (A) and a fibrous filler (C), wherein an organic compound (B) incompatible with the resin component is present as dispersed particles in the resin component, and two or more elements of the fibrous filler (C) are in contact with the surface of each of the dispersed particles or are located in each of the dispersed particles.

Abstract: A stripping composition comprising (a) an anticorrosive agent, (b) a stripping agent and (c) a solvent, wherein the anticorrosive agent (a) is a heterocyclic compound having a nitrogen atom-containing six-membered ring.

Abstract: According to this invention, residues generated after selectively removing a low-dielectric-constant film such as SiOC can be effectively removed without damage on an insulating film or metal film. Specifically, residues 126 and 128 generated after forming an interconnect trench in an SiOC film 116 are removed using a fluoride-free weak alkaline amine stripper. After the removing step, the wafer is rinsed with isopropyl alcohol and then dried without drying with pure water.

Abstract: A stripping composition comprising at least one of alcohols having an ether-bond in the molecule thereof as component (a), and an anticorrosive as component (b). Furfuryl alcohol or tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol is preferable as component (a).

Abstract: A hydrogen dissolving device 2 is connected to a high-purity water processing device 1. Hydrogen is dissolved into the high-purity water in the hydrogen dissolving device 2 to produce hydrogen-dissolved water. The hydrogen-dissolved water is conveyed via a transport line 7 to a wash apparatus 5 or to an immersion apparatus 6. The hydrogen-dissolved water exiting from the transport line 7 inhibits oxidation of semiconductor devices during wash or immersion process.
