Ni/Al-HMS/HZSM-5 catalysts with varying amounts of Si/Al ratios were prepared via the impregnation method and evaluated for the hydrogenation of benzene at 130−190 °C. To study the catalyst characterization, various methods were used as X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, temperature-programmed des...

a simple, rapid and sensitive method has been developed for determination of traces of tellurium (iv) (7.0-120.0 ng/ml) based on it’s catalytic effect on the reduction reaction of lauth’s violet by sulfide ion at ph 4.2. the reaction is monitored spectrophotometrically by measuring the decrease in absorbance of lauth’s viole at 600 nm by the fixed time method. the detection limit is 5.0 ng/ml a...

Enzymes play a fundamental role in almost all biological processes and identification of catalytic residues is a crucial step for deciphering the biological functions and understanding the underlying catalytic mechanisms. In this work, we developed a novel structural feature called MEDscore to identify catalytic residues, which integrated the microenvironment (ME) and geometrical properties of ...

Catalytic activity of AlHMS was investigated as a cheap heterogeneous reusable catalyst in some multi-component reactions for the synthesis of various chromenes. Three-component reaction of 2-hydroxy-naphtoquinone with an aromatic aldehyde and dimedone or barbituric acid in H2O under reflux conditions was performed using AlHMS in relatively good yields. The approach was more extended using psue...

The total oxidation of toluene at a wide temperature range (200–500 oC) over micro/mesoporous platinated catalysts has been investigated about activity, selectivity to CO2 and CO, catalyst's stability versus coke deposition and reaction kinetics. Kinetic of toluene oxidation was measured under various oxygen and toluene pressures and als...

The catalytic performance of Fe-Cr/ZrO2 catalysts, prepared by two different methodsscoprecipitation and coprecipitation-impregnation were examined in oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane to ethylene using CO2 as an oxidant. Thermogravimetric analysis and physicochemical characterization such as XPS, XRD, and BET were performed to explore the correlation of catalytic performance with physicochem...
