Inhibition Mechanism of Shell Gasifier Coal Fly Ash Additive on Inner/Outer Layer Ash Deposition in Biomass Fluidized Bed Gasification by XUE Haotian, QIN Yuhong, WANG Yuefeng, DU Yujia, WEI Yuexing, HE Chong, GUO Shugang, CAI Xingrui

“…When Shell ash is added at <15% and <10% to the two materials (mass ratio), the formation of phases such as leucite and orthoclase, which have higher relative melting temperatures, inhibits the adhesion of the ash particles and contributs to the loosening of the outer layer deposition ash structure. The inhibition mechanism suggests that both the base-to-acid ratio (RB/A) and n(SiO2+Al2O3) of the outer layer can effectively reflect the effect of Shell ash on the tendency of the outer layer deposition ash.…”

Trichosanthes kirilowii Maxim. Polysaccharide attenuates diabetes through the synergistic impact of lipid metabolism and modulating gut microbiota by Qiaoying Song, Kunpeng Zhang, Shuyan Li, Shaoting Weng

“…The results showed that high-fat diet significantly increased the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), viscera index, oxidative stress, impaired glucose tolerance, decreased body weight, immune response and short-chain fatty acid (SCFAs) content, and disrupted the balance of intestinal flora structure. However, after 6 weeks of TMSP1 intervention decreased lipid accumulation, ameliorated gut microbiota dysbiosis by increasing SCFAs-producing bacteria and mitigated intestinal inflammation and oxidative stress. …”
