The Bray-Liebhafsky (BL) oscillatory reaction generated in the batch reactor at 6268 C was perturbed by cobalt(II)-nitrate, supported on the macroreticular copolymer of poly-4-vinylpyridine with divinylbenzene (Co-PVPDVB). The kinetic data was analyzed of the complex pathways of the hydrogen peroxide decomposition in the examined BL reaction. The obtained results confirm that the kinetics of th...

For the first time, a-formyldiazoacetates have been successfully applied for the asymmetric cyclopropanation of alkenes via Co(II)-based metalloradical catalysis. The cobalt(II) complex of the D2symmetric chiral amidoporphyrin [Co(3,5-DiBu-ChenPhyrin)] is an effective metalloradical catalyst that can activate a-formyldiazoacetates to cyclopropanate both aromatic and aliphatic olefins with varie...

In industrial scale of Gas to Liquid (GTL) process in Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis, a part of reactor outlet gases such as CO2 and CH4 as side reaction products, is usually recycled. In this study, the influence of CO2 and CH4 on the performance and selectivity of Co-Ru/Al2O3 catalyst is investigated by injection of these gases (0-20 vol. % of feed) to the feed stream. The effect of temperatu...

In this study, the effect of preparation technique of carbon nanotube (CNT)-supported cobalt catalysts on the activity and selectivity of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) was studied. Different concentrations of acetic acid were used for the pretreatment of the catalyst support to modify the surface properties of CNT. This modification improved the reduction degree and dispersion of supported co...

The SiO2 supported cobalt-iron nano catalysts were prepared by the sol-gel method. This research investigated the effects of (Co/Fe) wt.%, different Co/Fe ratio at different temperature and loading of KCl wt.% for Fisher-Tropsch synthesis (FTS). The results were showed that the catalyst containing 50 wt.% (Co/Fe)/SiO2 (Co/Fe ratio is 70/30) which promoted with 0.6 wt.% KCl is an optimal nano ca...

Using DC-Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapour Deposition (PECVD) system, the impact of pure Co onthe growth of diamond-like carbon (DLC) nano-structures were investigated. In this study, Acetylene(C2H2) was diluted in H2 and used as the reaction gas and Cobalt (Co) nano-particles were used asthe catalyst. The effect of preparing Co catalyst at temperatures of 240°C and 350°C and growthconditions was...
