A Pd/α-Al2O3 nanocatalyst with ultra-low Pd loading exhibits high activity and stability for CO oxidative coupling to dimethyl oxalate, which was prepared by a Cu(2+)-assisted in situ reduction method at room temperature. The small size and high dispersion of Pd nanoparticles facilitated by Cu(2+) ions are responsible for the excellent catalytic activity.

TiO(2) doping with N-rich melamine produced a stable, active and visible light sensitized nanocatalyst that showed a remarkable efficiency towards the photobleaching of a model compound - methylene blue (MB) in aqueous solution. The photobleaching followed a mixed reaction order kinetics with the distinctive induction and acceleration periods.

Herein, a stable and S-scheme Fe3O4@CuCr-LDH nanocomposite was synthesized used for the photocatalytic degradation of diethyl phthalate (DEP) through activation peroxymonosulfate (PMS). In comparison with pure Fe3O4, LDH, demonstrated significantly enhanced activity due to its charge-carrier migration mechanism. The prepared composite also magnetically recoverable from treated water which is fa...

This paper deals with the recoverable robust spanning tree problem under interval uncertainty representations. A strongly polynomial time, combinatorial algorithm for the recoverable spanning tree problem is first constructed. This problem generalizes the incremental spanning tree problem, previously discussed in literature. The algorithm built is then applied to solve the recoverable robust sp...

A number of recent publications explain NBTI to be due to a recoverable and a more permanent component. While a lot of information has been gathered on the recoverable component, the permanent component has been somewhat elusive. We demonstrate that oxide defects commonly linked to the recoverable component also form an important contribution to the permanent component of NBTI. As such, they ca...

In this paper, we propose a recoverable DSM that uses a competitive update protocol. In this update protocol, multiple copies of each page may be maintainedat different nodes. However, it is also possible fora page to exist in only one node, as some copies of the page may be invalidated. We propose an implementation that makes the competitive update protocol recoverable from a single node failu...

new type of heterogeneous nanocatalyst for deoximation based on tungsten oxide supported on mesoporousmolecular sieve mcm-41 was developed. this new system representes inexpensive and highly activeheterogeneous nanocatalyst for deoximation under green and mild reaction conditions.

molecular sieves mcm-41 were synthesized from rice husk ash (rha) as alternative sources of silica. the material was synthesized by a room temperature method from a gel with the molar composition sio2: 1.6ea: 0.215hdtmabr: 325h2o with ph correction. the cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (ctmabr) was used as a structure template. nanocomposite containing 5.0 and 10.0 wt.% of cu was synthesized unde...

nano-graphene oxide was synthesized by the oxidation of graphite powders. the structural nature of the nano-graphene oxide was characterized by a variety of techniques including xrd, tem, ft-ir and uv/vis. the functional groups on its basal planes and edges of nano-grahene oxide play important role in catalytic activity. the catalytic activity of nano-graphene oxide was investigated on crossed-...
