A fully 3D unsteady Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) approach coupled with heterogeneous reaction chemistry is presented in order to study the behavior of a single square channel as part of a Lean [Formula: see text] Traps. The reliability of the numerical tool has been validated against literature data considering only active BaO site. Even though the input/output performance of such catalys...

The first chiral catalyst for the three-component Ugi reaction was identified as a result of a screen of a large set of different BOROX catalysts. The BOROX catalysts were assembled in situ from a chiral biaryl ligand, an amine, water, BH3·SMe2, and an alcohol or phenol. The catalyst screen included 13 different ligands, 12 amines, and 47 alcohols or phenols. The optimal catalyst system (LAP 8-...

Through dedication and intelligent research, Haldor Topsøe’s name has become synonymous with efficient and profitable ammonia production and has set the standard for ammonia catalysts and technology. We build upon this legacy with the introduction of an ammonia synthesis catalyst that delivers the highest performance ever – KM 111. KM 111 is a magnetite-based catalyst developed for optimal perf...

this study presents the synthesis of polyvinyl acetate (pvac) by solution polymerization and its partial hydrolysis to polyvinyl alcohol (pva) using alkaline alcoholysis. the influence of the molar ratio of hydrolysis catalyst (naoh) to pvac and the time and temperature of the saponification reaction on the degree of hydrolysis and molecular weight of the pva were investigated using response su...

in recent years, in iran and other countries the power systems are going to move toward creating a competition structure for selling and buying electrical energy. these changes and the numerous advantages of dgs have made more incentives to use these kinds of generators than before. therefore, it is necessary to study all aspects of dgs, such as size selection and optimal placement and impact o...

Herein we have identified an optimal catalyst, Pd1Ag1.7, for the tandem reductive amination between nitroarenes and aldehydes (selectivity > 93%). Key to the success is the ability to control the compositions of the investigational Pd1-xAgx (x = 0-1) catalysts, as well as the clear composition dependent activity/selectivity trend observed in this study. This catalyst features a wide substrate s...

A simple and green synthetic strategy to prepare BaO/TiO2-ZrO2 as a solid base catalyst was reported. These materials with various amounts of BaO were prepared by the adsorption method. The physical and chemical properties of BaO/TiO2-ZrO2 were investigated by X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, specific surface area and BJH pore size distribution, FT-IR spectroscopy, scanning electron micro...
