A kinetic study of elemental mercury (Hg(0)) oxidation reaction over molybdenum (Mo)-promoted vanadium (V)-based selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst was carried out. To probe the role HCl and O2 in Hg(0) catalyst, a real-time experiment conducted. It found that adsorption negligible adsorbed onto surface could show consistent performances presence at realistic SCR temperatures. NH3 sho...

Ni catalysts supported on Nano porous catalysts were prepared by the impregnation method and tested for vapor phase hydrogenation of benzene. The textural and physico-chemical properties of Ni catalysts were characterized by the X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope and N2 adsorption-desorption analysis. The catalytic evaluation reve...

The kinetic of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis over a co-precipitated Fe-Ce catalyst was investigated in a fixed bed micro reactor. Experimental conditions were varied as follow: reaction pressure 1-15bar, H¬¬¬2/CO feed ratio of 1-3 and space velocity of 3600-5400 h-1 at the temperature range of 270-310°C. 4 models according to the Langmuir-Hinshelwood-Hougen-Watson (LHHW) type rate equation were der...

The photocatalytic process using semiconductors with a nanostructure is one of the technologies usedfor the destructive oxidation of organic compounds such as surfactants. In this paper, thephotocatalytic degradation of Cetyl pyridinium chloride (CPC), was investigated in aqueous phaseusing various semiconductors such as titanium dioxide (Ti02), zinc oxide (ZnO), stannic oxide(Sn02). The degrad...

Photocatalytic decolorization of Methyl Orange (MO) solution has been studied using phosphotungstic acid (HPA) as photocatalyst. The decolorization reaction of MO solution is photocatalysis. The paper reveals that the optimal loading of photocatalyst for decolorization of MO solution (10 mg/L) is 0.6 g/L. The results show that the photocatalytic decolorization reaction of MO with HPA in a h...

Hydrothermal synthesis of nickel-chitosan hybrid  has  been accomplished using Ni(CH3COO)2,4H2O, chitosan and water as starting material, template and solvent respectively, followed by calcination at 800 and 900˚C to provide nanoporous NiO800  and NiO900. The solid products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption-desorption, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Four...

Abstract This work presents a systematical experimental and density functional theory (DFT) studies to reveal the mechanism of NO reduction by H2 reaction over platinum nanoparticles (NPs) deposited on boron-doped graphene (denoted as Pt/BG) catalyst. Both characterizations DFT calculations identified boron (in an additional adsorption site other than widely recognized Pt NPs. Moreover, BG led ...

In this study, we investigated the degradation of amido black dye in an aqueous solution using ultra-violet (UV) light catalyzed by iron oxide nanoparticles (nano-Fe). The nano-Fe was synthesized sodium borohydride reduction ferric chloride and characterized scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), fluorescence spectrophotometry (XRF). SEM showed regular spherical particles,...

Supported platinum particles with the help of strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) could boost catalytic performance. Pt/Fe2O3 cubes were synthesized by in situ reductions precursors over Fe2O3 cubes, tested for oxidation NO, and further characterized different techniques. The tests showed that exhibited a dramatically enhanced activity NO comparison to Pt/SiO2, physical mixture suggesting s...
