Abstract In this work, two palladium-based catalysts with either ZSM-5 or Zeolite Y as support material are tested for their performance in selective catalytic reduction of NOx hydrogen (H 2 -SCR). The ligh-toff measurements synthetic exhaust gas mixtures typical combustion engines supplemented by detailed catalyst characterization comprising N physisorption, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), tem...

The occurrence of sulfonamides in the environment is a severe global threat to public health due increasing prevalence antibiotic selection pressure that may lead development resistance. We report an enhanced biodegradation sulfadimethoxine (SDM) by Phanerochaete chrysosporium (Pc) with lignocellulosic biomass (Lb) using Fe3O4-ZSM-5 as catalyst (Pc/Fe3O4-ZSM-5/Lb). SDM was completely degraded w...

ZnO modified ZSM-5 and Y zeolites are synthesized by performing atomic layer deposition (ALD) of ZnO to HZSM-5 and HY using diethyl zinc and water as the precursors. The surface area and pore volume of ZSM-5 and Y zeolites are progressively reduced with the increasing number of ZnO ALD cycles. XRD and SEM characterization methods show that highly dispersed ZnO species are deposited on the inter...

The direct catalytic cracking of biomass pyrolysis vapor into aromatics derived from Douglas fir sawdust pellets was tested using an upfront microwave pyrolysis process coupled with a packed-bed catalysis process using a ZSM-5 Zeolite catalyst. A central composite experimental design (CCD) was used to optimize the bio-oil and syngas yields. The effects of temperature and inverse weight hourly s...

ZSM-5 is an important class of acid catalyst for producing bio-oil rich in petrochemicals; however, continuous efforts are required to improve the conversion efficiency biomass-derived oxygenates with large molecular sizes. The mesoporous (N-ZSM-5) was prepared a post-treatment method nanocellulose as green template this study induce additional surface and porous features. promoted properties N...

Medium-pore (diameter ~ 6A) zeolites such as ZSM-5 and silicalite impregnated with Group VIII metals provide selective catalytic pathways for the conversion of synthesis gas to gasoline or olefins. Mössbauer and magnetic studies on these catalysts containing iron or iron plus cobalt are reported. The zeolites were impregnated with metal nitrate solutions, reduced, and carbided to yield showed F...

The conversion of methane to methanol over zeolitic a-oxygen sites has been demonstrated using Fe-ZSM-5. To discriminate between monoand poly-nuclear active sites, we prepared the [Fe]-ZEO with iron in the ZEOlite lattice via direct synthesis and Fex-ZEO, by dispersion of x wt.% iron on the ZEOlite. Shape-selective formation of nano-clusters of iron oxides with various sizes is realized inside ...

Hierarchical micro-mesoporous ZSM-5 (MFI type) zeolite was synthesized by using corn plant stem pith powder from agricultural waste as hard template under simple hydrothermal method. The additional porosity generated this into the zeolites precursor gel yielded hierarchical (C-ZSM-5). Conventional micro porous (ConvZSM-5) also prepared same procedure without adding to compare catalytic performa...
