kinetic modeling is an important issue, whose objective is the accurate determination of the rates of various reactions taking place in a reacting system. this issue is a pivotal element in the process design and development particularly for novel processes which are based on reactions taking place between various types of species. the fischer tropsch (ft) reactions have been used as the kineti...

The liquid-phase hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde over a Pt/SiO2 catalyst was investigated experimentally and theoretically. experiments were conducted in 300 cm3 stainless steel stirred batch reactor supplied with hydrogen gas ethanol as solvent. Five Langmuir–Hinshelwood kinetic models to fit the experimental data. predictions from bulk model compared intraparticle diffusion model. Competitive...

In this paper, we propose a simple procedure to obtain multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) decorated with TiO2–Ag nanoparticles (MWCNT–TiO2–Ag). The MWCNTs were via combined functionalization –OH and –COOH groups polymer-wrapping technique using poly(allylamine)hydrochloride (PAH). TiO2-modified Ag synthesized the Pechini method mixture of acetylacetonate-modified titanium (IV) isopropoxide ...

The purpose of this study is to develop an experimental data-based char particle gasification model in order assess the effects size, temperature and generation heating rate on global parameters. Also, effect initial porosity observed by performing parametrical numerical simulations. A continuum-based used solve inside a within external boundary layer. intrinsic CO2 reaction computed according ...

A heterogeneous catalyst, composed of an open-cell glass foam support impregnated with zerovalent ruthenium nanoparticles (loading around 0.1 wt.%), was used to remove toluene in air by catalytic ozonation. Experiments lab-designed 2−6 cm length and 1.6 diameter catalysts were performed. model based on the Langmuir–Hinshelwood mechanism, coupled mass transfer limitations including competitive e...

An interest in the on-purpose production of 1,3-butadiene (1,3-BD) has grown, as a consequence decline naphtha cracking for ethene and propene, products that can now be produced economically by thermal dehydrogenation ethane propane contained natural gas. In this study, mechanism kinetics n-butane to 1,3-BD are explored over atomically distributed Pt sites grafted onto dealuminated zeolite BEA ...

Hierarchical BEA zeolite was prepared through desilication or followed by acid treatment. The catalytic performance of samples evaluated using Friedel-Crafts acylations with two substrates different molecular sizes, furan (5.7 Å) and benzofuran (6.9 Å), in the presence acetic anhydride as acylating agent. application simplified Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetic model showed that size substrate leads...

the photocatalytic degradation of betamethasone sodium phosphate was investigated in aqueoussuspensions of zinc oxide nanoparticular with diameter size 20 nm under a variety of conditions.different parameters such as irradiation time, the amount catalyst (0.12-0.8 g lh), initialconcentration of drug (10-50 mgljand initial ph values (ranging from 3 to ii) were investigatedin the presence of vari...

hydrothermal synthesis of nickel-chitosan hybrid  has  been accomplished using ni(ch3coo)2,4h2o, chitosan and water as starting material, template and solvent respectively, followed by calcination at 800 and 900˚c to provide nanoporous nio800  and nio900. the solid products were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), nitrogen adsorption-desorption, scanning electron microscopy (sem) and four...
