In this study, the modeling of low-temperature catalytic abatement NOX and N2O from tail gases in a weak nitric acid plant utilizing single-pressure 0.716 MPa system was performed. A one-reactor concept assumes that first bed, is reduced by ammonia on commercial vanadia–alumina catalyst, second decomposed proprietary nickel–cobalt catalyst. The kinetics decomposition Cs/Ni0.1Co2.9O4 catalyst ex...

photodegradation of dicamba, an ionizable herbicide, using tio2 supported on hzsm-11 zeolite was investigated. four photocatalysts with different weight percentages (wt%) of tio2 were evaluated: 3%, 10%, 30% and 50%. the effects of the catalyst concentration, the initial ph value and the repeatability of the photocatalytic activity after multiple cycles of reuse were also evaluated. results sho...

The catalytic oxidation of sulfur dioxide to sulfur trioxide over several binary (MxOy/TiO2) and ternary (V2O5/MXOY/TiO2) supported metal oxide catalysts was systematically investigated. The supported metal oxide components were essentially 100% dispersed as surface metal oxide species, as confirmed by Raman spectroscopy characterization. The sulfur dioxide oxidation turnover frequencies of the...

A series of V205/TiO 2/SiO 2 catalysts were structurally investigated by in situ Raman spectroscopy and chemically probed by methanol oxidation in order to determine the molecular structure-reactivity relationships of the V205/TiO 2/SiO 2 catalysts. Only surface TiO,. species are present on the 3% TiO 2 /S iO 2 catalysts, and the surface TiO x species as well as bulk TiO 2 (anatase) particles c...

The oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of ethane on alumina-supported vanadia was investigated with the aim of understanding the effects of lattice oxygen and vanadium oxidation state on the catalyst ODH activity and ethene selectivity. Transient-response experiments were carried out with both a fully oxidized sample of 10 wt% VO(x)/Al(2)O(3) (7 V nm(-2)) and a sample that had been partially reduc...

Two types of vanadia are present in fresh V20JIi02(anatase) catalysts calcined at 450°C: surface vanadia coordinated to the TiOz support and small crystallites of V205 (1, 2). The surface vanadia is the active site for the oxidation of o-xylene to phthalic anhydride (I, 3, 4). The surface vanadia is more active and selective than the VZOfi crystallites for the o-xylene oxidation reaction (I). T...

The oxidation of sulfur dioxide to sulfur trioxide over supported vanadium oxide catalysts occurs as both a primary and secondary reaction in many industrial processes, e.g., the manufacture of sulfuric acid, the selective catalytic reduction of NOx with ammonia and the regeneration of petroleum re®nery cracking catalysts. This paper discusses the fundamental information currently available con...

The mechanism for the controlled synthesis of highly dispersed vanadia supported on mesoporous silica SBA-15 (VOx/SBA-15) is elucidated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier-transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). The synthesis consists of functionalization of SBA-15 using 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) followed by HCl treatment, anion exch...
