Article Abstract

In the chemical industry, the ethylene cracking furnace is the core ethylene production equipment, and its safe and stable operation must be ensured. The fire gate is the only observation window to understand the high temperature operating conditions inside the cracking furnace. In the automatic monitoring process of ethylene production, the accurate identification of the opening and closing status of the fire door is particularly important. Through the research on the ethylene cracking production process, based on deep learning, the open and closed state of the fire gate is recognized and studied. First of all, a series of preprocessing and augmentation are performed on the originally collected image data of the fire gate. Then, a recognition model is constructed based on convolutional neural network, and the preprocessed data is used to train the model. Optimization algorithms such as Adam are used to update the model parameters to improve the generalization ability of the model. Finally, the proposed recognition model is verified based on the test set and is compared with the transfer learning model. The experimental results show that the proposed model can accurately recognize the open state of the fire door and is more stable than the migration learning model.

Fruit drop, cracking, and advanced ripening prior to fruit harvest can promote significant losses in important apple cultivars such as 'Ambrosia' and 'Fuji' grown in the mid-Atlantic. These losses result from environmental factors, delays in harvest due to the lack of red skin color development, and cultivar-specific characteristics, among others. Aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) and 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) are ethylene-inhibiting plant growth regulators (PGRs) that can alter preharvest fruit drop, cracking, maturity, and quality by impeding ethylene biosynthesis and perception, respectively.

Growing environmental concerns over plastic waste have recently spurred interest in degradable polymers. Among these, polyesters are considered promising candidates due to the hydrolyzable nature of their ester linkages. While the degradation behavior of aliphatic polyesters, known for their relatively high degradability, has been extensively studied with a focus on aggregation structures, our understanding of aromatic polyesters, which exhibit much lower degradability, remains limited.

This study evaluates the potential for producing valuable chemical products from plastics recovered from municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills and therefore contributing to waste reduction and resource recovery. Using pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (Py-GC-MS) we analysed the decomposition products of 10 plastic samples including fresh and excavated samples of different landfill periods from 4 landfill sites. The samples comprised polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), two mixed excavated plastic materials containing PE, PP, polystyrene (PS), poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC).

Describing heterogeneous catalysis is complicated by the intricate interplay of processes that govern catalyst performance. The evolving chemical environment and the kinetics of catalyst's structural changes during reactions often lead to unknown local geometries and chemistry, which can shift reactivity over time. Here, we perform systematic experiments and apply a focused artificial-intelligence (AI) approach to model the measured time-on-stream-dependent reactivity of palladium-based bimetallic catalysts.
