[ 1 ] - Kinetics study of biodiesel synthesis from sunflower oil using Ba-Sr/ZSM-5 nanocatalyst

In the present research work, the kinetics of sunflower oil transesterification reaction in the presence of Ba-Sr/ZSM-5 nanocatalyst which prepared using incipient wetness impregnation method was investigated. The 10wt.%Ba-Sr/ZSM-5 (Sr/Ba=3/2) nanocatalyst was calcined at 600 °C for 6 h with a heating rate of 3 ºC/min. The experimental conditions were the methanol/oil 9/1molar ratio, reaction t...

[ 2 ] - KCl Promoted Cobalt-iron Nanocatalysts Supported on Silica: Catalytic Performance and Characterization in Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis

The SiO2 supported cobalt-iron nano catalysts were prepared by the sol-gel method. This research investigated the effects of (Co/Fe) wt.%, different Co/Fe ratio at different temperature and loading of KCl wt.% for Fisher-Tropsch synthesis (FTS). The results were showed that the catalyst containing 50 wt.% (Co/Fe)/SiO2 (Co/Fe ratio is 70/30) which promoted with 0.6 wt.% KCl is an optimal nano ca...

[ 3 ] - Prediction and Optimization of the Effects of Combining Ultrasonic Waves and Solvent on the Viscosity of Residue Fuel Oil by ANN and ANFIS

In the present work, the influences of temperature, solvent concentration and ultrasonic irradiation time were numerically analyzed on viscosity reduction of residue fuel oil (RFO). Ultrasonic irradiation was applied at power of 280 W and low frequency of 24 kHz. The main feature of this research is prediction and optimization of the kinematic viscosity data. The measured results of eighty-four...

[ 4 ] - Catalytic Performance and Characterization of Promoted K-La/ZSM-5 Nanocatalyst for Biodiesel Production

The promoted K-La nanocatalysts supported on ZSM-5 zeolite were prepared via wetness impregnation method and tested for biodiesel production from soybean oil. The effects of different weight percentage of La, loading of K as a promoter and calcination conditions on structure and activity of catalyst were investigated. Results showed that the supported catalyst containing 7wt.% of La was pro...
