New membrane types with well-controlled sub-nanostructures were developed from both polymeric and inorganic materials: carbon-based membranes, functionalized mesoporous oxide membranes and molecular sieving zeolite membranes. Regarding the carbon membranes, a novel carbon membrane with enhanced CO2 affinity was developed. The prepared membrane had a higher separation performance than that of th...

the use of recent technologies for the increase of growth indexes and the plants yields is an important aspects and till now many research works for this has been done. one of these efforts is the usage of magnetic water and zeolite for the increase of yield plants. this research work is an study on the effects of magnetic water and zeolite that has been done on frame work of pore random design...

Crystals of zeolites with intricate micropores have been widely used in industry as heterogeneous catalysts, in particular as solid acid catalysts in the fields of oil refining and petrochemistry. However, relatively small individual micropores in zeolites such as Beta, ZSM-5, and Y strongly influence mass transport to and from the active sites located within them, severely limiting the perform...

Two imidazolium cations containing a benzyl group, 1-benzyl-3-methylimidazolium and 1-benzyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium, generally produce the large pore zeolite MTW when used as structure directing agents in the synthesis of pure silica zeolites by the fluoride route. When working at low water contents only the smallest of these cations is able to crystallize MFI, a zeolite with crossing medium p...

In fiber concretes, microcracks in the boundary area between the cement paste and the surface of aggregates or fibers are higher. Natural and artificial pozzolans can be used for reinforcing this area. In this research, the combination of glass fiber, zeolite, and nano silica particles were used in lightweight self-compacting concrete containing scoria. Fiber volume fractions between 0% to 1.5%...

In this work, zeolite NaY was prepared by hydrothermal method. Then, silver ions were replaced in the zeolite NaY with silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution via using ion exchange (IE) method. The Manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanoparticles (9.3 and 15.8 wt %) for guest were deposited in the zeolite AgY(host) structure with Mn(NO3)2 aqueous and KMnO4 solutions by confined space synthesis (CSS) metho...

Limited water resources in arid and semi-arid regions require innovative management to maintain crop production while minimizing the amounts of used for irrigation. We investigated impact particle size natural clinoptilolite zeolite (CZ) on content (WC) hydraulic properties a loamy sand soil. WC was measured using 5TE sensors installed at five depths (10, 20, 30, 40, 50 cm) soil columns (7.4 cm...

h-zsm-5 nano-zeolites were synthesized by hydrothermal method using tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (tpaoh) as a template in the presence of various tpabr concentrations. the effect of different tpabr/tpaoh molar ratios was studied on the catalytic performance of dehydration of methanol to dimethyl ether (dme) in a fixed bed reactor under the same operating conditions (t=300°c, p=1 atm, and whsv=...

Microwave heating has been shown to influence various inorganic chemical reactions. Substantial reductions in the synthesis time for materials have been reported (1). Additionally, product characteristics and quality of materials synthesized by microwave heating are different from those synthesized under conventional heating methods. The mechanism which results in microwave enhancement is not c...
