Title: Innovations of Huiyan Zhang in Carbon Nanotube and Biomass Gas-Solid Systems
Introduction
Huiyan Zhang is a prominent inventor based in Nanjing, China. He has made significant contributions to the fields of carbon nanotubes and biomass gas-solid systems. With a total of 10 patents, his work is recognized for its innovative approaches and practical applications.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a meshed catalyst-based high-yield preparation and regeneration method for carbon nanotubes and hydrogen. This method involves several steps, including the addition of waste plastic into a low-temperature pyrolysis section, slow heating, and continuous nitrogen introduction. A multilayer stainless steel mesh serves as a catalyst, facilitating a catalytic reaction that generates carbon nanotubes and high-purity hydrogen. The process also includes ultrasonic treatment for the physical stripping of carbon nanotubes from the stainless steel mesh, allowing for recycling and regeneration.
Another notable patent is the oxygen-vacancy-rich MoO/ZrO catalyst and its preparation method for hydrodeoxygenation in biomass gas-solid systems. This method involves dissolving zirconyl nitrate and ammonia water, followed by a series of steps to create a solid powder that is calcined to obtain ZrO solid. The process continues with the addition of ammonium molybdate and a Pt precursor to create the Pt—MoO/ZrO catalyst, which has significant applications in biomass processing.
