Mutiple-step catalytic combustion of 1,2-dichloroethane.

Catalytic Combustion of Methane

Catalytic combustion is an environmentally benign technology which has recently reached the stage of commercialization. Palladium is the catalyst of choice when considering gas turbines fuelled with natural gas because of its superior activity for methane oxidation. Several fundamental issues are still open and their understanding would result in an improvement of the technology. Hence, the wor...

Catalytic Combustion of Syngas

The catalytic combustion of syngas/air mixtures over Pt has been investigated numerically in a channel-flow configuration using 2D steady and transient computer codes with detailed hetero-/homogeneous chemistry, transport, and heat transfer mechanisms in the solid. Simulations were carried out for syngas compositions with varying H2 and CO contents, pressures of 1 to 15 bar, and linear velociti...

CFD Simulation of Catalytic Combustion of Benzene

This paper reports the result of CFD simulation of catalytic oxidation of benzene on monolithic catalyst. The geometries ofthe catalyst and reactor were designed in Gambit <span style="font-size: 10pt;...

Catalytic Degradation of Dichloroethane Using Cu Nanoparticles Under Reducing Conditions

Dichloroethane is a raw material used for the manufacture of vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) and therefore has very often been detected as a contaminant in the groundwater nearby the VCM manufacturing plant. Zero-valent iron is capable of degrading a wide array of chlorinated contaminants in groundwater such as trichloroethylene, vinyl chloride, carbon tetrachloride, and tetrachloroethane. However...
