In recent years, high-albedo materials and products have been utilized for urban building roofs and roads to lower their surface temperatures. These high-albedo materials and products include those with spectral selectivity. Accordingly, a numerical simulation was conducted to investigate the spectral dependency and characteristics of the urban albedo. The distribution of the spectral albedo re...

Bio-based furanics can be aromatized efficiently by sequential Diels-Alder (DA) addition and hydrogenation steps followed by tandem catalytic aromatization. With a combination of zeolite H-Y and Pd/C, the hydrogenated DA adduct of 2-methylfuran and maleic anhydride can thus be aromatized in the liquid phase and, to a certain extent, decarboxylated to give high yields of the aromatic products 3-...

most cardiovascular diseases need to be treated by more than a simple drug and the use of combination products diminishes noncompliance. advicor ® as a combination product of a vitamin and a fat lowering agent has no monograph in official pharmacopeias for its quality control purposes. in this study, first and third derivative signals for na and lv quantitation at the two pairs of wavelengths, ...

Environment fortification must require the use of natural products instead of chemicals to minimize pollution. The detoxification of metal pollutants from wastewater by the development of biomaterials having higher affinity, capacity and selectivity had been found to be as an alternative over conventional technologies that were often inadequate to reduce concentrations in wastewater to acceptab...

In contrast to the known thermal, exclusively [3,3], Oto Nrearrangement of allyl groups in phenyltetrazoles (1, Scheme 1), the comparable migration of the allyl group in pseudosaccharyl ethers (3; Scheme 2) has been shown to proceed through both [1,3]and [3,3]-mechanisms, 4, 5; for the pseudosaccharyl derivative of the natural product myrtenol (6; Scheme 3) only the product 7 of a [1,3]-shift h...

In this study, the partial oxidation of iso-octane over Ni/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 and Ni/β”Al2O3 catalysts was investigated. The results indicated that Ni/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 is more active than Ni/β”-Al2O3. The partial oxidation products are mainly H2 and CO for Ni/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 with hydrogen selectivity up to 85%. The H2/CO ratio is in the range of 1.3-2.0 depending on the operating temperature. It was n...

the process of ethylene production from ethane dehydrogenation is one of the interesting processes in the field of conversion the petroleum light gases to the valuable products. in this process, the outlet gaseous product is a combination of ethylene, ethane and hydrogen. effective separation techniques are required for separation of ethylene from unreacted ethane. here a new adsorbent approach...
