High yield of H2 of high purity from acetic acid, a model compound of bio-oil from the biomass fast pyrolysis, was produced by sorption enhanced steam reforming (SESR). An oxygen carrier was introduced into a chemical loop (CL) coupled to the cyclical SESR process to supply heat in situ for the endothermic sorbent regeneration, in order to increase the energy efficiency of the process. A new mu...

Sorbent-TRACK is a new device developed to monitor adsorption and surface oxidation of pollutants under direct plasma exposure. It is based on direct transmitted Fourier Transformed Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. A pyrex reactor under controlled gas pressure and composition is inserted on the infrared beam of a commercially available Nicolet 5700 FTIR spectrometer. A substrate holder is located ...

The development of a comprehensive approach to preventing the pollution natural objects is necessary due high requirements environmental legislation for discharge industrial wastewater. Adsorbents are used in various industries extract heavy metals from In this study possibility using saponite clay as raw material production sorbent extraction copper ions Cu2+ wastewater considered, recipe and ...

the no removal over oxide sorbents (k2o/al2o3 , cao/al2o3 and bao/al2o3) at a loading of up to 25 wt.% was investigated using a synthetic diesel exhaust gas containing  1,000 ppm no, 1000 ppm iso-butane (i-c4h10), 8% o2 and n2 balance. the reactor was operated  at 250 oc to 450 oc for the activity study. no was effectively stored (removal efficiencies between 30-60 %) as nitrate under experimen...

Experimental data on cadmium (II) and nickel (II) ion sorption on deactivated protonated yeast over a wide range of sorbent and initial metal concentrations, were analyzed by an equilibrium model based on a thermodynamics approach. Model describes relationships between the equilibrium concentration of metal, metal sorption per unit biomass dosage and concentration of sorbent and initial metal c...

Cysteine-functionalized chitosan magnetic nano-based particles were synthesized for the sorption of light and heavy rare earth (RE) metal ions (La(III), Nd(III) and Yb(III)). The structural, surface, and magnetic properties of nano-sized sorbent were investigated by elemental analysis, FTIR, XRD, TEM and VSM (vibrating sample magnetometry). Experimental data show that the pseudo second-order ra...

In making the gas-solid-liquid phase analysis, based on the collaborative study of the internal and external humidification ratio of desulfurization efficiency, determine the humidifier ratio within 60% to 75%, that can make the best balance between the respective merits of a simple tower humidifiers tower humidifier way, optimizing the overall desulfurization reaction, effectively reducing the...

Catalytic steam reforming of glycerol for H(2) production has been evaluated experimentally in a continuous flow fixed-bed reactor. The experiments were carried out under atmospheric pressure within a temperature range of 400-700 degrees C. A commercial Ni-based catalyst and a dolomite sorbent were used for the steam reforming reactions and in situ CO(2) removal. The product gases were measured...

Mercury is one of the most toxic heavy metals present in aquatic systems, exhibiting a complex behaviour in the environment, where it may persist for decades after the source of pollution is stopped. Hence, it is important develop new techniques for its removal from the aquatic systems. In this context, a particularly promising line of research is the use of new materials capable of up taking m...

This work obtained a sorbent based on humic acids (HA) isolated from oxidized brown coals of the Maikuben deposit. The study by IR spectroscopy showed presence various functional groups (OH-, COOH-) in sorbent, which can enter into ion-exchange reactions with metals. Humic have been tested as for neodymium. Neodymium sorption was carried out under static conditions nitrate solutions. It found t...
