Promoting effects of calcium on the performance of Cu-MgO catalyst in hydrogenation of furfuraldehyde

In the present study, the effects of calcium doping on the performance of the co-precipitated Cu-MgO catalysts prepared with different calcium loadings in the selective hydrogenation of furfuraldehyde were investigated. The results proved that the addition of this promoter had a remarkable impact on the catalytic performance. The conversion of furfuraldehyde enhanced up to 83% and the furfuryl ...

Synthesis and Characterisation of Bidentate Schiff Base Derived From Furfuraldehyde And Its Transition Metal Complexes

The schiff base ligand was prepared from furfuraldehyde with 4-amino-5-mercapto-5triazole and characterised. The metal complexes of Ti(III),V(III),Mn(III),Co(III) and Ru(III) derived from this ligand were characterised by elemental analyses, molar conductance,magnetic measurements, infra red 1H NMR & electronic spectral data. Based on these studies octahedral structures have been assigned to th...

A novel optical sensor for the measurement of furfuraldehyde in transformer oil

Measuring the concentration of furfuraldehyde (FFA) within oil samples taken periodically from power transformers is usually carried out as a means of condition monitoring. Normally, laboratory-based techniques such as high performance liquid chromatography are applied for this measurement. We report the construction of a novel optoelectronic sensor for the determination of FFA in transformer o...
