the kinetic of fischer-tropsch synthesis over a co-precipitated fe-ce catalyst was investigated in a fixed bed micro reactor. experimental conditions were varied as follow: reaction pressure 1-15bar, h¬¬¬2/co feed ratio of 1-3 and space velocity of 3600-5400 h-1 at the temperature range of 270-310°c. 4 models according to the langmuir-hinshelwood-hougen-watson (lhhw) type rate equation were der...

This study focuses on the manufacture of carbon nanotubes using the arc discharge method. Several independent variables were changed, such as the current (80 and 100 A), an atmosphere of open air or argon and the catalyst (no catalyst, Fe or a mixture of Fe/Co,Ni). Only one set of parameters yielded MWNTs, involving Fe as the catalyst and an open air atmosphere. I. INTRODUCTION There has been i...

In order to reduce the overall system cost, the development of inexpensive, high-performance and durable oxygen reduction reaction (ORR)N, Fe-codoped carbon-based (Fe/N/C) electrocatalysts to replace currently used Pt-based catalysts has become one of the major topics in research on fuel cells. This review paper lays the emphasis on introducing the progress made over the recent five years with ...

A series of dinitrogen-bridged dimolybdenum-dinitrogen complexes bearing metallocene-substituted PNP-pincer ligands is synthesized by the reduction of the corresponding monomeric molybdenum-trichloride complexes under 1 atm of molecular dinitrogen. Introduction of ferrocene as a redox-active moiety to the pyridine ring of the PNP-pincer ligand increases the catalytic activity for the formation ...

The addition of phenols to aryl-substituted alkynes to form 1,1-diarylalkenes was carried out by using the Fe-Al-MCM-41 catalyst. The catalyst showed remarkable improvement in time and yield in comparison to other solid catalysts. The heterogeneous catalyst can be reused at least three times without a significant loss in activity.

A careful comparison was performed between Cu and Fe as catalysts for the growth of horizontally aligned ultralong single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) arrays on SiOx/Si substrates, and the mechanism of the difference was discussed. Cleaner and straighter SWNTs with smaller diameters and narrower size distribution were obtained using Cu as catalyst. It was also found that the SWNTs always grew ...

A novel magnetite nanoparticle-based heterogeneous acidic catalyst [Fe3O4@SiO2@Am-PPC-SO3H] [HSO4] was successfully prepared and characterized by SEM, EDX, TGA, VSM and FT-IR techniques. The magnetically retrievable and sustainable catalyst was investigated in the reaction of aldehyde and o-aminophenol for the synthesis of benzoxazoles. The...

We discuss growth of high-quality carbon nanotube (CNT) films on bare and microstructured silicon substrates by atmospheric pressure thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD), from a Mo/Fe/Al2O3 catalyst film deposited by entirely electron beam evaporation. High-density films having a tangled morphology and a Raman G/D ratio of at least 20 are grown over a temperature range of 750–900 C. H2 is ne...

Herein, a ternary nanocomposite with TiO2 nanoparticles anchored on reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-encapsulated Fe3O4 spheres (Fe3O4@rGO@TiO2) is presented as a high efficient heterogeneous catalyst for photo-Fenton degradation of recalcitrant pollutants under neutral pH. Fe3O4@rGO@TiO2 was synthesized by depositing TiO2 nanoparticles on the surface of the Fe3O4 spheres wrapped by graphene oxide ...

the fe-mcm-22 zeolite was found to be an efficient solid heterogeneous catalyst for synthesis of dihydropyrano [2,3-c] pyrazoles via one pot four component reaction of ethyl acetoacetate, hydrazine hydrate, aromatic aldehyde and malononitrile in aqueous alcohol. the catalyst was synthesized by hydrothermal method under autogenous pressure and modified by fe (iii) ion exchange. the prepared cata...
