the catalytic oxidation of toluene over copper oxide supported on natural diatomite was investigated. the catalyst was prepared by the wet impregnation method and characterized by using the brunauer emmett teller (bet), field emission scanning electron microscopy (fesem), x-ray diffraction (xrd), x-ray fluorescence (xrf) and temperature-programmed reduction (tpr) analysis. the highest catalytic ...

A novel chemically modified electrode containing Prussian blue complex was achieved on the surface of glass carbon electrode by sol-gel technique. The electrochemical behavior of modified electrode was characterized by cyclic voltammetry in detail. The film electrode obtained was very stable and exhibited electrocatalytic response for oxidation of nitrite. Results showed at bare GC electrode, a...

During recent years, many advanced oxidation techniques have been investigated for water and wastewater treatment to overcome the shortage of clean water. This review summarizes the background and principles of photocatalysis applied as an advanced oxidation technology. In particular, this paper focuses on modification of photocatalysts with various dopants as well as the novel photocatalytic r...

In the present study, Mn - Cr spinel powder was synthesized through a solid state reaction. In the next step, the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method was used to apply the MnCr2O4 spinel, as an oxidation-resistant layer, on SUS 430 stainless steel in a potential of 300 V/cm. The coated and uncoated samples were then pre-sintered in air at 900 °C for 3 h followed by cyclic oxidation at 800 °...

Sponge iron (DRI) due to the high surface area, often shows a high tendency to re-oxidation and at some cases spontaneous combustion (autoignition). In this work, re-oxidation behavior and autoignition of sponge iron, produced from different types of iron ore has been investigated. Isothermal and non-isothermal re-oxidation experiments were carried out on each type of DRI and their autoignition...

an accelerated shelf-life test using elevated temperatures 62, 72 and 82 ˚c was conducted to predict the oxidation progression of walnuts over a long-term storage. oxidation parameters including values of conjugated dienes (cd) and trienes (ct) values and thiobarbituric acid (tba) value were employed to evaluate the oxidation processes. changes followed an apparent first-order kinetic. walnuts ...

this study presents a review on advanced oxidation processes (aop) for simultaneous removal of no and so2. aop is based on using a strong oxidant such as ozone and h2o2 which is able to generate highly reactive intermediates. the pollutant will be oxidized and removed by these intermediates. in recent years, aop has been considered as an effective and attractive technology in the field of flue ...

oxidation reaction of indole to isatin was performed in the presence of fe3o4 nanoparticles (as catalyst) and commercial grade perhydrol (as oxidant). magnetite nanoparticles were synthesized via chemical precipitation method and characterized by xrd and tem techniques. the efficiency of reaction was obtained from gc analysis of the mixture. the catalyst was easily separated from the reaction m...

isatin, n-methyl isatin and n-benzylisatin were smoothly monobrominated in the 5-position by treatment with pyridinium bromochromate (pbc) in acetic acid medium. in the similar conditions indigo underwent bromination and oxidation to give 5-bromoisatin in high yield.
