ru/al2o3 catalysts were prepared by conventional incipient wetness impregnation as well as colloid deposition of rucl3 precursor via in situ reduction with ethylene glycol (polyol) method on alumina support. the samples were characterized by tem, xrd and tpr techniques. the catalytic performance tests were carried out in a fixed-bed micro-reactor under different operating conditions. ethylene g...

Abstract Transition‐metal‐mediated dinitrogen fixation has been intensively investigated. The employment of main group elements for this vital reaction recently sparked interest because new chemistry. We report ammonia synthesis via a chemical looping process mediated by transition‐metal‐free barium hydride (BaH 2 ). Experimental and computational studies reveal that the introduction hydrogen v...

Both acidosis and hypokalemia stimulate renal ammoniagenesis, and both regulate urinary proton and potassium excretion. We hypothesized that ammonia might play an important role in this processing by stimulating H(+)-K(+)-ATPase-mediated ion transport. Rabbit cortical collecting ducts (CCD) were studied using in vitro microperfusion, bicarbonate reabsorption was measured using microcalorimetry,...

The objective of this study was to determine rates of ammonia desorption from sediment dust and ammonia levels in airborne dust in animal houses in order to explore the nature of ammonia in the dust particles. This is assumed to be important for obtaining better understanding of the role of dust in the perception of odor and the development of respiratory diseases in farmers’ lungs. Sediment du...

The reduction of ammonia-nitrogen fluxes from polluted streams entering the Tai Lake is an important task in areas with limnetic eutrophication. Biofilm technique for the polluted streams has been proposed as one effective method to reduce ammonia-nitrogen fluxes entering the Tai Lake. In this study, ammonia-nitrogen biodegradation in a created biofilm purification engineering was evaluated by ...

Iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by coprecipitation method using ammonia as precipitation agent. Most researchers usually add ammonia into the iron salt solution but in this work the salt solution drop wise has been added to the ammonia and the new obtained results were compared with those of other researches. Magnetic properties of nanoparticles were measured by VSM. The effect of rea...

Ammonia occurs in marine waters including effluents, receiving waters, and sediment interstitial waters. At sufficiently high concentrations, ammonia can be toxic to aquatic species. Toxicity identification evaluation (TIE) methods provide researchers with tools for identifying aquatic toxicants. For identifying ammonia toxicity, there are several possible methods including pH alteration and vo...

Ammonia nitrogen wastewater (about 100 mg/L) was treated by two-stage ozone oxidation method. The effects of ozone flow rate and initial pH on ammonia removal were studied, and the mechanism of ammonia nitrogen removal by ozone oxidation was discussed. After the primary stage of ozone oxidation, the ammonia removal efficiency reached 59.32% and pH decreased to 6.63 under conditions of 1 L/min o...
