Mesoporous nanostructured γ-Al2O3 powders were synthesized through multi- step precipitation procedures using the pH-swing technique. Structural and morphological characteristics in addition to the thermal behavior of the procured samples were characterized via X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) ...

In an Al2O3-TiO2 mixed oxide system, the incorporation of TiO2 to alumina is known to increase the acidity of the resulting mixed oxide; depending strongly on the preparation method and the titania concentration. When using TiO2 as a support of NiMo catalysts, initial catalytic activity in hydrodesulfurization reactions is much higher than that on catalysts based on pure alumina. One of the mai...

Bipolar membrane electrodialysis (BPMED) can provide a sustainable route to capture the oceanic-dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) using an electrochemical pH-swing concept. Previous works demonstrated how gaseous CO2 (through acidification) be obtained from ocean water, and carbonate minerals provided via ex situ alkalinization. In this work, we present, for first time, in mineralization alkalin...
