Photocatalytic Mineralization of Chlorazol Black E (Direct Black 38) over Zeolite-Supported Titania-Based Catalysts

decomposition of NO over zeolite and MCM-41 molecular sieve supported catalysts

Vital staining of Mycoplasma and L-forms with Chlorazol Black E.

Vital staining of Mycoplasma colonies was attempted because other dye visualization techniques kill the organisms and preclude reisolation for further studies. The lipophilic amphoteric dye Chlorazol Black E (CBE) was the most successful of 14 vital dyes tested on Mycoplasma hominis, M. pharyngis, M. fermentans, M. arthritidis, M. salivarium, M. pneumoniae, and L-forms of Staphylococcus aureus ...

Water-plasma-assisted synthesis of black titania spheres with efficient visible-light photocatalytic activity.

Black titania spheres (H-TiO2-x) were synthesized via a simple green method assisted by water plasma at a low temperature and atmospheric pressure. The in situ production of highly energetic hydroxyl and hydrogen species from water plasma are the prominent factors in the oxidation and hydrogenation reactions during the formation of H-TiO2-x, respectively. The visible-light photocatalytic activi...

Selective Autooxidation of Ethanol over Titania-Supported Molybdenum Oxide Catalysts: Structure and Reactivity

We study the selective catalytic oxidation of ethanol with air as a sustainable alternative route to acetaldehyde. The reaction is catalysed by molybdenum oxide supported on titania, in a flow reactor under ambient pressure. High selectivity to acetaldehyde (70%-89%, depending on the Mo loading) is obtained at 150 °C. Subsequently, we investigate the structure/performance relationship for vario...

The Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx with NH3 over Titania Supported Rhenium Oxide Catalysts

Titania supported vanadium oxide catalysts have been demonstrated to be very efficient catalysts for the selective reduction of NOx with NH3 and have found widespread industrial application for the control of NOx emissions from stationary sources (1). Characterization studies have demonstrated that supported vanadium oxide catalysts consist of a two-dimensional metal oxide overlayer on the oxid...
