In order to meet environmental norms, Indian fuel policy aims at producing ultra low sulphur diesel (ULSD) in near future. A catalyst for meeting such requirements has been developed and kinetics of this catalytic process is being looked into. In the present investigations, effect of mass transfer on kinetics of ultra deep hydrodesulphurization (UDHDS) to produce ULSD has been studied to determ...

Reliability of kinetic parameters are crucial in understanding enzyme kinetics within cellular system. The present study suggests a few cautions that need introspection for estimation of parameters like M K , Max V and I K using Lineweaver-Burk plots. The quality of 50 IC too needs a thorough reinvestigation because of its direct link with I K and M K values. Inhibition kinetics under both stea...

a theoretical study of the kinetics and mechanism of second-order intermolecular c.) cloadd it ion of 2-ethyny1-2,3-dihydrofurane and phenyl azide was performed using dft method at 101.111 le) cl of theory with 6-31 preg(d,p) basis set at 298.15k. equilibrium molecular geometries and harmonic ) ihrational frequencies ofthe reactants, transition state, and product were calculated. the kinetic an...

Pt/Zr(x)-HMS/HZSM-5 catalysts with various Si/Zr ratios (as x) were used for investigation of the kinetics of n-heptane reforming process under 350 - 450 oC reaction temperature, 35 to 80 ml min-1 flowing rate of hydrogen and 2 to 5 ml h-1 flowing rate of n-heptane. In the present work, two kinetics (power law and Langmuir - Hinshelwood) models were selected and examined to describe the kinetic...

In this research, zeolite A was synthesized from waste porcelain and CdS nano-particles were doped in zeolite framework by a precipitation after an ion exchanging process. All raw and modified samples were characterized by FT-IR, XRD and SEM methods. Primary experiments showed that the good efficiency of loaded nano CdS onto the zeolite A for photodecomposition of dimethyldisulfide (DMDS) under...

In this work, adsorption kinetics were investigated in order to remove the acid blue 62 off the aqueous solutions using mesoporous silicate SBA-15 loaded with tannic acid (tannin-SBA-15). Nitrogen adsorption and desorption test (BET), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis characterize synthesized composite. The impacts of some parameters such as P...

A hydrophilic macromolecular network is prepared by performing graft copolymerization of poly (sodium acrylate) chains onto salep and silica gel. The reaction parameters affecting the water absorbency of the superabsorbent composite were optimized using Taguchi method. FT-IR spectroscopy and Thermo Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) were used for confirming the s...
