kinetics of the chemical leaching of chalcocite from a low-grade copper ore in a ferric sulfate medium was investigated using the constrained least square optimization technique. the experiments were carried out for different particle sizes in both the reactor and column at constant eh, ph, and temperature. the leaching rate increased with increase in the temperature. about 50% of the cu recove...

in this study, the potential of biosorbent obtained from silk maze, was investigated for the batch biosorption of direct red 81 (dr 81) in aqueous solution. the effects of temperature, biosorbent amount, contact time, initial dye concentration and ultrasonic irradiation were also evaluated. furthermore, experimental equilibrium and kinetics data were fitted by langmuir and freundlich isotherms ...

kinetic study of epoxidation of unsaturated ketone of mesityl oxide was studied by usinghydrogen peroxide in the presence of dodecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (dtab) as aninverse phase transfer catalyst. the reaction was carried out in the two-phase media of waterheptanewith 1:1 ratio in 25 °c. it was found that the order of reaction for mesityl oxide forketone concentration in the range of 0.0...

In this study, two Carbon Molecular Sieves using Pistachio shell (CMS P) and Walnut shell (CMS W) were prepared by a chemical vapor deposition method and used for pressure swing adsorption and separation of CO/H2 and CO/CH4. Adsorption isotherms of gases obtained for both CMS’s. The Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm model was used for comparing pore volum...

mercaptans are commonly present in petroleum products. their foul odor and highly corrosive nature make them the most undesirable sulfur compounds so they should be removed because of environmental issues. merox process is used for oxidation of mercaptans to disulfide using air in the presence of alkaline solution and merox catalyst. in this paper, due to lack of information about the kinetic o...

an agricultural waste and eco-friendly biosorbent i.e. rice husk has been used as a cheap adsorbentfor the removal of methylene blue dye from aqueous solutions. the physical properties of the developedadsorbent were characterized using ftir. the study was realized using batch experiments. the effectsof contact time, ph, initial dye concentration, biosorbent dose and temperature were investigate...

in the present work, the regioselectivity for a series of diels–alder reactions (4 reactions) has beenstudied using hardness, electrophilicity and polarizability of products.furthermore,thermodynamicand kinetic calculations have been done. in all results predicted pararegioisomer is more favorableregioisomerinthese investigated reactions.all calculations have been done at the dft-b3lyp/6-31g(d)...

The pseudo-first order rate constants and activation parameters have been determined using two methods, constant-temperature kinetic (CTK) and variable temperature kinetic (VTK), for the oxidative addition reactions of [Pt2Me2(C^N)2(µ-dppf)], (1a, C^N = deprotonated 2-phenylpyridine (ppy); 1b, C^N = deprotonated benzo[h]quinoline (bhq)) with MeI. The results obtained from VTK method are in agre...
