Investigation into 1,3-butadiene and other bulk chemicals' formation from bioethanol over Mg–Al catalysts

Bulk chemicals from biomass

Given the current robust forces driving sustainable production, and available biomass conversion technologies, biomass-based routes are expected to make a signifi cant impact on the production of bulk chemicals within 10 years, and a huge impact within 20–30 years. In the Port of Rotterdam there is a clear shortterm (0–10 year) substitution potential of 10–15 % of fossil oil-based bulk chemical...

an investigation into translation of cultural concepts by beginner and advance student using think – aloud protocols

this research aims at answering the questions about translation problems and strategies applied by translators when translating cultural concepts. in order to address this issue, qualitative and quantitative study were conducted on two groups of subjects at imam reza international university of mashhad. these two groups were assigned as beginner and advanced translation students (10 students). ...

Oxidative dehydrogenation of 1-butene to butadiene over carbon nanotube catalysts

The applications of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as catalysts have attracted much interests in catalysis community due to their unique porous microstructure and chemical properties. One of the promising results is the use of CNTs in the oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of ethylbenzene to styrene [1,2]. However, only few works were reported on the use of CNTs or other carbonaceous materials to catalyz...
