Pd and Co nanoparticles were deposited on cellulose for use as a heterogeneous catalyst in the bimetallic catalytic reduction reaction. The catalyst was characterized with Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy, X-Ray Diffraction pattern, Thermal Gravimetric Analysis, Flame Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy, and Transmission Electron Microscopy, and applied in the reduction reaction of nitroarom...

Abstract: Reduction of the Titanium dioxide, TiO2, by methane was investigated in this work. The thermodynamic of reaction was examined and found favorable. The reaction of titanium dioxide with methane was carried out in the temperature range 1150°C to 1450°C at atmospheric pressure with industrial high porosity pellets prepared from titanium dioxide powder. The evolved gas analyzing method wa...

in the present study, a new gas diffusion electrode (gde) (based on pt/nafion membrane) is fabricated. the electrochemical results show that the new gde has the highest electrochemical activity toward the oxygen reduction reaction (orr) among the three electrodes. the sem and xrd findings show that a platinum layer can be attached to nafion membrane closely and firmly with a strong peak corresp...

the electrocatalysis of the oxygen reduction reaction (orr) on carbon supportedpt-v (1:1) catalyst in polymer electrolyte fuel cells (pefc) was investigated. atan oxygen pressure of one atm an enhanced electrocatalytic property of pt-v/ccompared with pt/c is revealed. these results indicate the occurrence of adifferent electrocatalytic mechanism for the orr on pt/c and pt-v/c. anincrease of mas...

In the present study, reduction of zinc oxide from the pellets made of steelmaking electric arc furnace dust has been investigated. Effects of such parameters as the type of carbon material (graphite, coke and charcoal) as well as time and temperature on the reduction reaction have been examined. The reduced (dimensionless) time method was applied to perform a kinetic analysis of the system. Ex...

Heteronuclear dual-site catalysts (HDACs), inspired from single-atom catalyst, have been proposed as advanced alternatives of noble metal especially toward nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR). However, the search for favorable candidates with both promising NH3 yield and Faradaic efficiency is still challenging, due to limited experimentally available bi-metal pairs lack thorough understanding de...

The Landau-Lifshitz equation is the first in an infinite series of approximations to Lorentz-Abraham-Dirac obtained from `reduction order'. We show that this divergent, predicting wildly different dynamics at successive perturbative orders. Iterating reduction order ad infinitum a constant crossed field, we obtain motion which free erratic behaviour perturbation theory. Borel-Pad\'e resummation...
