The catalyst Pt-Ta supported on 7-alumina was prepared by impregnation with solution containing compoundsof II21K1.0. and Ta205 The Pt concentration was kept constant at 0.2 vet% while the concentration of thetantalum was 0,4 wt%. The activity and selectivity of catalyst were determined under conditions at 450-500 °Cand 15-30 atm.. with molar ratio H2/C[H,e5 and WH=1.5mL/h for converted n-hepta...

ch4, c2h6 and c2h4 are the most important outlet gaseous of oxidative couple methane (ocm) reaction and this process is a new technology for conversion of natural gas to ethane and ethylene products. in this study, adsorption of ocm outlet hydrocarbons over 10x zeolite has been examined at equilibrium conditions. temperature and pressure are the most effective operational parameters in the batc...

the oxidative coupling of methane (ocm) performance over na-w-mn/sio2 at elevated pressures has been simulated by adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (anfis) using reaction data gathered in an isothermal fixed bed microreactor. in the designed neuro fuzzy models, three important parameters such as methane to oxygen ratio, gas hourly space velocity (ghsv), and reaction temperature were conside...

bimetallic pt-v supported by gamma-alumina is used to observe the changes of nheptanewhen passed over this catalyst. the pt concentration was kept constant at0.1wt% while the concentration of the vanadium was 0.5wt%. the activity andselectivity of catalyst have been determined under conditions at 450-500 degreescentigrade and 15-30 attn. the experimental results show that the addition of second...

The diets of juvenile (<g0 mm) Syngnathus scovelli and of H~ppocampus zosterae, abundant members of a resident fish community in a Thalassia testudnum seagrass bed in Tampa Bay, Florida, were examined from Apnl to October 1984. Harpacticoid copepods comprised most of the diet, both in terms of percent number and percent biomass, for the smaller size classes of S. scovelli and for H. zosterae, a...

In some patients, heart failure (HF) is associated with increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). The magnitude and the reversibility of PVR elevation affect the HF management. Sildenafil has been recently recognized as potent PVR-lowering drug in HF. The aim of the study was to compare hemodynamic effects and pulmonary selectivity of sildenafil to prostaglandin E(1) (PGE(1)). Right-heart ...

This study aimed to evaluate the leishmanicidal activity of ethanol extract, fractions, and isolated substance from Handroanthus serratifolius against Leishmania amazonensis. Furthermore, this activity was related to cytotoxicity, and the selectivity index was determined. The ethanol extract was obtained by maceration of the stem powder, and the extract was subjected to fractionation on chromat...

We recently reported that two artemisinin-derived dimers (dimer primary alcohol 606 and dimer sulfone 4-carbamate 832-4) are significantly more potent in inhibiting human cytomegalovirus (CMV) replication than artemisinin-derived monomers. In our continued evaluation of the activities of artemisinins in CMV inhibition, twelve artemisinin-derived dimers and five artemisinin-derived monomers were...
