The influence of zeolite support materials and their impact on CH4 oxidation activity was studied utilizing Pd supported H-beta H-SSZ-13. A correlation between activity, Si/Al ratio (SAR), the type framework, reduction-oxidation behaviour, species present found by combining catalytic measurements with a variety characterization methods (operando XAS, NH3-TPD, SAXS, STEM NaCl titration). Operand...

In recent years, destructive earthquakes have shown the deficiencies of the existing buildings. One of the most effective mechanisms for dissipating the earthquake energy is inelastic deformation of the steel components. The objective of this research is to study the application of metallic dampers for dissipation of the earthquake energy and to investigate the behavior of concrete structures i...

a single column cation exchanger resin was used to eliminate cations from renet cheese whey, with particular reference to the improvement of taste and flavor. ten panelists were convened to assess the contribution of the mineral components to the salty taste of whey, judging on the basis of taste, flavor and color. the organoleptic characteristics of untreated whey were arbitrarily assigned...

although uncommon, different kinds of foreign bodies, most of which metallic, have been reported to enter the appendix. the present report describes a case with a metallic foreign body-induced appendicitis, and makes suggestion in regards to the diagnosis and management of the problem. a metallic foreign body was accidentally observed in the right lower quadrant region in an abdominal x-ray tak...

nanoparticles classified in 4 overall groups containing: metallic nanoparticles, ceramic nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles and semiconductor nanoparticles. these nanoparticles are used in some biomedical applications such as carrying medicine and photographing agents. with attention to different criteria which are both qualitative and quantitative, selecting the most suitable nanoparticles...
