15 The UASB process for wastewater treatment has been extensively studied, but the use of zeolite to improve 16 UASB reactor performance has rarely been explored. In this study, a UASB reactor modified with natural 17 zeolite operating at high nitrogen concentrations (0.5 g/L, 0.7 g/L and 1 g/L) was evaluated. Two laboratory 18 bioreactors, one with zeolite and one without, were operated at amb...

The addition of phenols to aryl-substituted alkynes to form 1,1-diarylalkenes was carried out by using the Fe-Al-MCM-41 catalyst. The catalyst showed remarkable improvement in time and yield in comparison to other solid catalysts. The heterogeneous catalyst can be reused at least three times without a significant loss in activity.

Molybdenum-zeolite catalysts always suffer from severe carbon deposition and rapid deactivation in the methane dehydroaromatization (MDA) process. Herein, we present a strategy that controls spatial distance between Mo species HMCM-22 zeolite over Mo/HMCM-22 catalysts, to inhibit deposition. Our characterization analyses demonstrate possess same active components, but plays key role determining...

This work undertakes the study of the detoxification reactions of O, S-dimethyl phosphoramidithioate (methamidophos) as an organophophorus insecticide on the 14.7 wt% magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles/Ag-NaY faujasite molecular sieve zeolite (FMSZ) composite. The influence of solvent (methanol, acetonitrile and n-hexane) on the detoxification potential of composite was inves...

INTRODUCTION Smokers with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) smoke at higher prevalence rates and are more likely to relapse early in a quit attempt. Innovative methods are needed to enhance quit rates, particularly in the early quit period. Web-based contingency-management (CM) approaches have been found helpful in reducing smoking among other difficult-to-treat smoker populations but are li...

An equilibrated mixture of pentene isomers was produced by dehydroisomerization of n-pentane on catalysts consisting of Pt clusters within [Fe]ZSM-5 channels. These catalysts showed high isomerization rates, excellent stability even without added H2, and isopentene selectivities above 60%. Metal sites on Pt clusters dehydrogenate n-alkanes and n-alkenes formed undergo skeletal rearrangements wi...

background: there are great resources of natural zeolite in iran. zeolite, an inorganic ion-exchanger, may be used as a suitable technical-economical solution for water treatment in many regions of iran. in this study, the characterization of natural zeolite natrolite and the feasibility of removing hardness, cations, and anions were investigated. methods: first, zeolite composition and type we...

Efficient direct valorization of methane to value-added chemicals and materials remains an unsolved challenge for modern chemistry science. In this work, we explored non-oxidative conversion hydrogen, hydrocarbons, valuable zeolite-templated carbon materials. First, using a set spectroscopy microscopy characterization tools, investigated how the reaction conditions influence process formation i...
