Solubilities of Carbon Dioxide in Heavy Hydrocarbons.

Adsorption analysis of carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons and moisture on carbon

Heavy Carbon as a Tracer in Heterotrophic Carbon Dioxide Assimilation*

The first proof that heterotrophic, non-photosynthetic bacteria can fix carbon dioxide was presented in 1935 by Wood and Werkman (15). This investigation introduced the first experimental evidence that carbon dioxide serves as a building material in synthetic reactions of all forms of life, whether simple or complex. The synthesis of citric acid from oxalacetate by avian tissue was shown by Kre...

Mutual solubilities of hydrocarbons and water with the CPA EoS

The knowledge of hydrocarbon/water phase equilibria is important in the design and operation of equipment for petroleum transport and refining and petrochemical plants. The presence of water in a hydrocarbon mixture can affect the product quality and damage the operation equipment due to corrosion and formation of gas hydrates. Tracing the concentration of hydrocarbons in aqueous media is also ...

A metal-free electrocatalyst for carbon dioxide reduction to multi-carbon hydrocarbons and oxygenates

Electroreduction of carbon dioxide into higher-energy liquid fuels and chemicals is a promising but challenging renewable energy conversion technology. Among the electrocatalysts screened so far for carbon dioxide reduction, which includes metals, alloys, organometallics, layered materials and carbon nanostructures, only copper exhibits selectivity towards formation of hydrocarbons and multi-ca...

Extraction Properties of Novel Polyethylene Oxide Diphosphate-based Chelating Agents towards Lanthanides and their Solubilities in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

These CO2-philic open-chain organophosphorous chelating ligands, i.e. diethylene glycol bis (2, 4, 4-trimethyl-1-pentyl) dimethyl diphosphate (EG2TP), diethylene glycol bis (3, 5, 5-trimethyl-1-hexyl) dimethyl diphosphate (EG2TH), and diethylene glycol dioctyl dimethyl diphosphate (EG2Oct), ethylene glycol bis(2-isopropoxyethyl) dimethyl diphosphate (EG2IPE), triethylene glycol bis(2-isopropoxy...
