A heat [...] wavelengths preparation method

The invention relates to a preparation method of thermosensitive sensitizer. The preparation method is characterized in that methyl substituted phenol (metacresol, o-cresol or p-cresol) and dichloroethane have condensation reaction at the temperature of 70 to 80 DEG C, then the thermosensitive sensitizer 1,2-dimethyl phenoxyl ethane crude product with the purity of 95 to 98 percent (the main impurity is the single substituted phenoxyl ethane) is obtained in the steps of layering, continuous reaction, extraction and layering, and then the crude product is rectified to obtain the high-purity thermosensitive sensitizer. The method is simple to operate, environmentally friendly, high in yield, moderate in reaction condition and low in production cost; the extracted impurity can be used as the raw material to be continued in the reaction.

1. 2 - [...] ethane and the like industrial preparation method

The invention relates to an industrial preparation method of 1,2-diphenoxyl ethane and its analog. The method comprises the following steps: continuously adding 1,2-dichloroethane to a hot reaction system comprising phenol (or methyl phenol), an acid binding agent and polyethylene glycol in a dropwise manner under normal pressure at a uniform speed to guarantee continuous escape of 1,2-dichloroethane steam from the reaction system (or continuously introducing the 1,2-dichloroethane steam into the reaction system), and stopping the addition of 1,2-dichloroethane when phenol (or methyl phenol) is completely reacted to terminate the above reaction; and post-processing to obtain a final product. The method has the advantages of thorough conversion of raw materials, and high yield.

Organic pollutants in paper-recycling process water discharge areas: First detection and emission in aquatic environment

In this study, eight compounds have been identified and quantified from the samples collected from paper-recycling process water discharge areas. In particular, five aryl hydrocarbons, including a novel chlorinated aryl ether, were identified for the first time as environmental pollutants. In the effluent stream, concentration levels of up to 1600 μg L-1 and 190 μg g-1 were detected in the surface water and surface sediment, respectively. The results of this study have raised concerns regarding the organic chemicals used in thermal paper and the environmental consequences of their release.
