<strong>High resolution electric power load data of an industrial park with multiple types of buildings in China</strong>

The dataset, electric power load data of four buildings in an industrial park in China from 2017 to 2019 for temporal resolutions of 5 min, 30 min, and 1 hour. The subfile {Year} is an annual directory that includes electric power load data for each building at different resolutions. The folder for each resolution includes the electric power load dataset for four types of buildings, and the name of the folder is Year_resolution_Building. For example, the folder named “2018_1hour_Office” contains the electric power load data for the office building in 1-hour resolution for the whole year of 2018, in 365 xlsx files. Each xlsx file consists of two columns: “timestamp” and “power”.</p

Separation of Benzene and Cyclohexane by Nonporous Adaptive Crystals of a Hybrid[3]arene

The separation of benzene and cyclohexane is one of the most challenging tasks in the petrochemical field. However, conventional separation methods suffer from cumbersome operation, huge energy expenditure, or use of entrainers. Herein, we develop an environmentally friendly and energy saving adsorptive separation strategy using nonporous adaptive crystals of a hybrid[3]­arene (1). Adaptive 1 crystals separate benzene from an equimolar benzene/cyclohexane mixture with a purity of 97.5%. The selectivity comes from the stability and variability of the new crystal structure upon capture of the preferred guest, benzene. Moreover, reversible transformations between the nonporous guest-free structure and the guest-containing structure make 1 highly recyclable

Selectivity Separation of <i>Ortho</i>-Chlorotoluene Using Nonporous Adaptive Crystals of Hybrid[3]arene

Ortho-chlorotoluene serves as a vital raw material in the petrochemical industries. However, due to alkylation and chlorination, ortho-chlorotoluene is often mixed with meta-chlorotoluene and para-chlorotoluene. The selective separation of ortho-chlorotoluene from chlorotoluene isomers is a crucial step in industrial production. However, owing to the close boiling points of chlorotoluene isomers, traditional separation methods demand a large amount of energy. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new methods to achieve the efficient separation of chlorotoluene isomers. Herein, we developed an adsorptive separation strategy to achieve the separation of ortho-chlorotoluene using nonporous adaptive crystals of hybrid[3]­arene H (Hα). Hα was proved to be highly effective in the separation of ortho-chlorotoluene from the binary or ternary mixture of chlorotoluene isomers. Single-crystal structure analysis and electrostatic potential maps indicated that the selectivity was derived from the stable host–guest structure between ortho-chlorotoluene and H. Besides, Hα exhibited high recyclability due to the reversible transformation between guest-free and guest-contained structures

Separation of Monochlorotoluene Isomers by Nonporous Adaptive Crystals of Perethylated Pillar[5]arene and Pillar[6]arene

Separation of monochlorotoluene isomers is a vital process to obtain highly pure p-chlorotoluene, which is irreplaceable in the production of medicines and pesticides. However, traditional separation methods suffer from great energy consumption, cumbersome operation or use of organic desorbents. Herein, an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly method is developed through an absorptive separation strategy based on nonporous adaptive crystals of perethylated pillar[5]­arene (EtP5) and pillar[6]­arene (EtP6). EtP5 and EtP6 crystals separate p-chlorotoluene from a p-chlorotoluene/o-chlorotoluene equimolar mixture with purities of 99.1% and 96.1%, respectively and show no decrease in selectivity upon cycling. The selectivity is attributed to both the stability of the final crystal structure upon guest capture and suitable host cavity size/shape. Besides, we discovered the gate-opening behavior changes of EtP5 crystals at different temperatures after absorption of p-chlorotoluene/o-chlorotoluene mixtures with various p-chlorotoluene fractions, which is helpful to understand the thermodynamics of the absorption process
