In the course of the routine use of NMR as an aid for organic chemistry, a day-to-day problem is the identifica- tion of signals deriving from common contaminants (water, solvents, stabilizers, oils) in less-than-analyti- cally-pure samples. This…

Phenolic compounds are one of the most important quality parameters of wines, since they contribute to wine organoleptic characteristics such as colour, astringency, and bitterness. Furthermore, several studies have pointed out that many show…

In contrast to a recently expressed, and widely cited, view that "Ionic liquids are starting to leave academic labs and find their way into a wide variety of industrial applications", we demonstrate in this critical review that there have been…

Due to the large volume of existing literature on Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis, the diversity of the subject and the actually reoriented interest, it seemed indicated to write a historical sketch about the process, putting also emphasis on present…

Biodiesel is synthesized via the transesterification of lipid feedstocks with low molecular weight alcohols. Currently, alkaline bases are used to catalyze the reaction. These catalysts require anhydrous conditions and feedstocks with low levels of…
-
Biodiesel has become more attractive recently because of its environmental benefits and the fact that it is made from renewable resources. The cost of biodiesel, however, is the main hurdle to commercialization of the product. The used cooking oils…

Abstract 10.1002/aic.11029.abs In this work, the flow of immiscible fluids in a PMMA microchannel 300 μm wide and 600 μm deep was investigated experimentally. Dyed de-ionized water and kerosene were selected as the test fluids. Flow patterns were…

This paper surveys the present status and the perspective of de-NOx SCR catalysis for stationary sources, that is based on the reduction of NOx by NH3 to form water and nitrogen. After a brief description of the SCR chemistry the characteristics of…

The goal of the "Opportunities for Catalysis Research in Carbon Management" workshop was to review within the context of greenhouse gas/carbon issues the current state of knowledge, barriers to further scientific and technological progress, and…
-
Biodiesel is a particularly attractive renewable fuel as it can be used in existing engines, is environmentally friendly, and is readily synthesized from animal fats and vegetable oils. Heterogeneous catalysts offer exciting possibilities for…

The sulphur tolerance and thermal stability of a 2 wt% Ag/g-Al2O3 catalyst was investigated for theH2-promoted SCR of NOx with octane and toluene. The aged catalyst was characterised byXRD and EXAFS analysis. It was found that the effect of ageing…

Thiswork presents a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) calculation to predict and to evaluate the effects of temperature and inlet velocity on the pressure drop of gas cyclones. The numerical solutions were carried out using spreadsheet and…

In conclusion, we have shown that gold nano- particles transform nanocrystalline cerium oxide from a stoichiometric oxidant into a catalytic material for the selective oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to aldehydes and ketones in the…

Gold nanoclusters (phi = 1.3 nm) stabilized by poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (Au:PVP NCs) readily oxidize benzylic alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes and/or carboxylic acids under ambient temperature in water. Kinetic measurement revealed that…

The design and operation issues for reactive distillation systems are considerably more complex than those involved for either conventional reactors or conventional distillation columns. The introduction of an in situ separation function within the…

Alcohol oxidations are typically performed with stoichiometric reagents that generate heavy-metal waste and are usually run in chlorinated solvents. A water-soluble palladium(II) bathophenanthroline complex is a stable recyclable catalyst for the…

Graphene is a rapidly rising star on the horizon of materials science and condensed-matter physics. This strictly two-dimensional material exhibits exceptionally high crystal and electronic quality, and, despite its short history, has already…
