Valorisation of glycerol with cinnamaldehyde over phosphotungstic acid encapsulated on a NaY zeolite

Interaction between NaY Zeolite and boric Acid: a preliminary computational study

A computational study of the electronic structure and stability of complexes formed between Zeolite Y and boric acid was carried out at the HF and B3LYP levels using 6-31G* basis set. Five structures located as local minimum in PES of complex (structures d, e, f, g, and h). The most stable structure is formed due to hydrogen bonding between two hydroxyl of boric acid and both oxygen of ...

A continuous process for glyoxal valorisation using tailored Lewis-acid zeolite catalysts

Photocatalytic Decolorization of Methyl Orange Solution with Phosphotungstic Acid

Photocatalytic decolorization of Methyl Orange (MO) solution has been studied using phosphotungstic acid (HPA) as photocatalyst. The decolorization reaction of MO solution is photocatalysis. The paper reveals that the optimal loading of photocatalyst for decolorization of MO solution (10 mg/L) is 0.6 g/L. The results show that the photocatalytic decolorization reaction of MO with HPA in a h...

Xenon and krypton separation in a chromatographic column packed with granulated nano NaY zeolite

In order to investigate the gas separation ability of a column packed with nanozeolitic material, nano NaY zeolite was synthesized and granulated. These uniform granules packed in a chromatographic column were utilized for separation of Xe and Kr under various operating conditions. With regards to the response peaks obtained from trace injections of Xe and Kr into the column, the first and seco...

Dynamics of Water in Zeolite NaY(Br) Investigated by NMR

1. Introduction Zeolites are widely used in industry as molecular sieves, selective adsorbents, catalysts and ion exchangers (e.g. [1] and references therein). Therefore there is a great interest in studying the dynamics of guest molecules in such systems. Although vigorous research has been performed in the field, a complete understanding of the complex behaviour of guest molecules is still mi...
