this work describes the optical and structure properties of nickel sulfide and cobalt sulfide nanoparticles in zsm-5 zeolite. the samples were obtained by sulfidation of the ni2+ and co2+ ion-exchange zsm-5 zeolites in a na2s solution at room temperature. the optical properties of the samples were studied by uv-visible spectroscopy. their crystalline structure and morphology were studied by x-r...

TiO2 is a very well-known and well-researched material due to the stability of its chemical structure, biocompatibility, and its physical, optical and electrical properties. In this study, the synergistic effect of nano-TiO2 immobilized on activated carbon, zeolite Y and ZSM-5 on the removal of styrene vapors from polluted air was investigated. The prepared catalysts were characterized by SEM, ...

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...

An alumino-silicate zeolite, Linde Type-A (LTA) has been prepared from aluminium powder and sodium metasilicate by hydrothermal process. The zeolite was characterized by FTIR and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and by measuring the surface acidity using KOH as adsorbate. The surface acidity of LTA zeolite varied greatly with varying synthesized conditions such as crystallization temperature, c...

Since the discovery of zeolites there has been a consistent interest in the potential applications of these microporous structures. Of current particular interest is the possible use of zeolites as storage devices for fuel cells in the hydrogen economy. The adsorption kinetics of zeolites are not fully understood, and therefore the potential of such materials has not been optimized. In this stu...

A micro-spectroscopic method has been developed to probe the accessibility of zeolite crystals using a series of fluorescent 4-(4-diethylaminostyryl)-1-methylpyridinium iodide (DAMPI) probes of increasing molecular size. Staining large zeolite crystals with MFI (ZSM-5) topology and subsequent mapping of the resulting fluorescence using confocal fluorescence microscopy reveal differences in stru...

Fast (>I2 kHz) magic-angle-spinning NMR with IH' 7AI cross-polarization quantitatively monitors several aluminous species in dealuminated zeolite Y; the non-framework matter contains 4-, 5-and 6-coordinated A1 and the *7AI signal at 30 ppm is an independent resonance probably due to 5-coordinated non-framework Al and not part of a second-order quadrupole lineshape as previously reported. Since ...

Abstract We present this study on FAU-type zeolites were prepared varying the Si/Al ratio (4, 5 and 6) crystallization time 6 8 h) to produce a highly pure homogeneous material with enhanced surface area values. Bimetallic Pd-Ru Pt-Ru (0.5 wt.% of each metal) impregnated onto matrix by incipient wetness impregnation method. The materials characterized X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen physisorp...

Using the chemical reduction method, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were effectively synthesized into the zeolite framework in the absence of any heat treatment. Zeolite, silver nitrate, and sodium borohydride were used as an inorganic solid support, a silver precursor, and a chemical reduction agent, respectively. Silver ions were introduced into the porous zeolite lattice by an ion-exchange pa...
