A theoretical study of the thermal denitrogenation of 7-isopropylidene-2,3-diaza-norbornene is carried out by employing density functional theory and high level ab initio methods, such as the complete active space self-consistent field, multi-reference second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory, and coupled-cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples. In all computations Pople's ...

Exposure to hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) before a crucial event, with the plan to create a preventing therapeutic situation, has been defined "preconditioning" and is emerging as a useful adjunct both in diving medicine as well before ischemic or inflammatory events. Oxygen pre-breathing before diving has been extensively documented in recreational, technical, commercial and military diving for tis...

Catalytic hydrotreating of algae bio-crude oil from hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) Nannochloropsis sp. was performed. Different Ni-based catalysts, including Ni/γ-Al2O3, Ni-Cu/γ-Al2O3, Ni-Re/γ-Al2O3, and Ni-Cu-Re/γ-Al2O3, (10%Ni, 5%Cu, 2.5%Re) were used in upgrading the oil. Most catalytic systems could effectively eliminate S decrease N O contents, enhance more than 20% improvement higher hea...

Algae pyrolytic bio-oil contains a large quantity of N-containing components (NCCs), which can be processed as valuable chemicals, while the harmful gases also released during upgrading. However, characteristics NCCs in bio-oil, especially composition heavy (molecular weight ≥200 Da), have not been fully studied due to limitation advanced analytical methods. In this study, three kinds algae ric...
