Kinetics of methanation of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.

A comparative study on the kinetics of carbon dioxide methanation over bimetallic and monometallic catalysts

In this paper, Ni/Al and La-Ni/Al catalysts were prepared with a co-impregnation method and employed in carbon dioxide methanation reaction. The catalytic results showed that the catalyst with (10wt.%) of lanthanum and (20wt.%) nickel had the highest activity at low temperatures in CO2 methanation and the La-Ni/Al catalysts changed the reaction path by lowering its activation energy and consequ...

Carbon Dioxide Methanation for [4] Intensified Reactors

Accumulation of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in stored canola.

Production of carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO(2)) from canola was studied in the laboratory and in commercial storage. Canola rapidly produced amounts of CO and CO(2) far exceeding those reported for dry cereal grain and dried peas and at levels dangerous to human health. In the laboratory, canola (5.8% m.c.) was stored in sealed flasks at 25, 35 and 45 degrees C for 12 weeks. Level...

Molecular Cluster Cations of Carbon Monoxide and Carbon Dioxide

This thesis deals with the metastable decay and the surface scattering induced fragmentation in the hyperthermal energy range of relatively weakly bound molecular cluster cations. With (CO)n and (CO2)n two related model systems were chosen for a systematic size dependent study. Surface impact experiments were carried out with stainless steel and SiO2 covered Si(100) surfaces. Results were obtai...

Catalytic Cyclocarbonylation in Compressed Carbon Dioxide: Pressure Influence of Carbon Monoxide and Carbon Dioxide

Among the current interests in organic synthesis are those reactions performing multiple C-C bond formation, in special when they undergo under catalytic conditions. Due to its properties, there is a growing interest on the use of compressed fluids (CF) as solvent media in catalytic processes. In this context, we present herein studies that aim to the development of a cleaner technology for the...
