The pyrolysis processes of lignin under the action of CaO and K2HPO4·3H2O alone or in coordination were studied by thermogravimetric mass spectrometry (TG-MS). The experimental results showed that after addition of CaO, CaO immobilized the “CO2-like active intermediates” produced during lignin pyrolysis, which reduced the amount of CO2 emission in the first stage and lowered the temperature of CO2 emission in the second stage. After addition of K2HPO4·3H2O, lignin pyrolysis was remarkably advanced. K2HPO4·3H2O catalyzed methyl breakages in the first two pyrolysis stages, and it hindered the release of volatile matter in the third stage to promote the formation of more coke. K2HPO4·3H2O catalyzed the reactions toward formation of aromatic ring products and phenols. After addition of CaO and K2HPO4·3H2O, the initial pyrolysis stage was milder than that with K2HPO4·3H2O alone, and the weight loss peak was sharper in the second stage. In the pyrolysis stage, the trend of CH4, CO, M/Z = 46, toluene, and furfural emission showed that there was a synergistic effect between K2HPO4·3H2O and CaO.
Objective: To summarize the clinical experience of Professor Liangduo Jiang in the prevention and control of the new coronavirus disease COVID-19. Methods: Between January 2020 and February 2020, 87 subjects who have had contact with patients tested positive for COVID-19 in an isolated observation site in Tianjin were given the Chinese medicine prescription for prevention prescribed by Professor Liangduo Jiang continuously for three days. Their basic information, clinical manifestations and medication adherence were statistically analyzed, and the clinical manifestations, temperature changes and infection status after medication were summarized. Results: After the 14-day isolation observation period, only one patient who had close contact with confirmed patients developed a positive test for COVID-19 after taking the preventive Chinese medicine prescription, with the infection rate of 1.149%. Conclusion: The preventive treatment by Professor Liangduo Jiang is effective in the prevention and control of the epidemic.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
