High single-pass production of dimethyl ether from CO2-rich feedstock is demonstrated by pressure swing regeneration, allowing enormous increase in productivity.

so42-/zno-tio2 catalyst was prepared by sulfating zno-tio2 powders with h2so4 solution. the catalyst was characterized by xrd, ir and hammett indicator. the catalyst showed strong acidity(h0 ≦-16.0). the optimum conditions are found that the calcination temperature is 823k and the soaked consistency of h2so4 is 1 mol/dm3. then so42-/zno-tio2 was applied as the catalyst in the catalytic synthesi...

An air-stable catalyst system Ir-(P-Phos) catalyst was found to be highly effective in the asymmetric hydrogenation of quinoline derivatives. The catalyst immobilized in DMPEG was efficiently recovered and reused eight times, retaining reactivity and enantioselectivity.

Bimetallic Mo-Fe and Mo-Co sulfide clusters were anchored on AI,O, and used for CO hydrogenation. In addition to methane, significant amounts of dimethyl ether were produced. The reaction orders obtained from power rate laws for methanation indicated that the surfaces of the catalytic ensembles were not completely saturated by CO, in contrast to the observations for most conventional CO hydroge...

In this study, we investigated carbon feedstock decomposition conditions on the synthesis of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) by chemical vapour deposition. We simulated gas-phase thermal decomposition of ethanol and dimethyl ether (DME) at typical SWNT growth conditions using the chemical kinetic model, and confirmed the reaction trends and primary products using Fourier transform infrar...

The thermochemolytic behavior of 4-O-etherified cinnamyl alcohols and aldehydes in lignin was investigated in the presence of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) (315 degrees C/4 s), using veratrylglycol-beta-(coniferyl alcohol) ether (1a), veratrylglycol-beta-(sinapyl alcohol) ether (1b), and veratrylglycol-beta-(coniferyl aldehyde) ether (2). The methylated products were monitored with gas c...
