wastewater treatment and re-use of industrial process water are critical issues for the developmentof human activities and environment conservation. the present study was undertaken to evaluate the degradationof organic pollutants taking phenol as the model compound over aluminium pillared montmorillonite and therare earth exchanged analogues, underlining the use of environ friendly clay cataly...

the special application of iron-manganese oxide nanocatalysts has been investigated in decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. in this research, iron-manganese oxide nanocomposites were synthesized by co-precipitation, sol-gel and mechanochemical methods using iron (iii) nitrate, iron (ii) sulfate and manganese (ii) nitrate as starting materials. these nanocomposites were prepared on the various ca...

toluene and benzene were eliminated using multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts). in order to investigate influence of acid treatment on the mwcnts adsorption capacities, the mwcnts were functionalized by nitric acid (10 m) under reflux conditions for 2 h. fourier transform infrared (ftir) and raman spectroscopy were employed to confirm the formation of functional groups on the nanotubes surfac...

in order to evaluate the adsorption potential of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) for benzene, toluene and xylenes (btx), the adsorption capacities of benzene and toluene on two different mwcnts were measured using a gas-chromatography (gc) and then compared with each other. fourier transform infrared (ftir) was employed to investigate the presence of functional groups on the carbon nanot...

Micro porous carbons are used for the sorption/separation of light gases, where as the carbon with broad pore size is applied for removal of large organic molecules. In this work activated carbon was prepared from natural material pine wood. Pine wood monoliths were carbonized in inert nitrogen atmosphere for different intervals of times. To enhance the surface area and to develop interconnecti...

alumina-supported cs3[re(c2o4)3] precursor has been synthesized  for preparation of re-cs/g-al2o3 catalyst. cs3[re(c2o4)3]  has been prepared from the reaction of recl3 with  h2c2o4.2h2o and cscl in water. the complex has been characterized by elemental analysis and various spectroscopy techniques such as ft-ir, uv-vis and 13c-nmr. the complex was supported on γ-al2o3 by column chromatography. ...

Nanostructured iron oxide powder that has been recovered from waste pickling liquor unit of steel industry was studied for oxidation catalytic applications. In this research, the powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transition electron microscopy (TEM) for determination of phase structure, morphology and particle size. Furthermore, the specific surface area of the powder was ...

In this research effect of synthesis method of magnesium aluminate as support of Ni catalysts at the reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reaction was evaluated. The RWGS reaction is applied in Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation to Form Methanol via a Reverse Water-Gas Shift Reaction (CAMERE) process for the transformation of CO2 into methanol. The MgAl2O4 supports were prepared by sol-gel (M1), surfactant...
