The NiO/NiS composite catalyst synthesis is designed using a simple and facile method. Composite materials with different sulfur sources were characterized and applied for catalytic reduction of 4nitrophenol (4-NP) in aqueous solution. The catalysts' universality towards reduction/decolorization of other organic dyes such as methylene blue (MB), methyl orange (MO), and rhodamine B (RhB) was eva...

Zeolite materials are microporous aluminosilicates with various uses, including acting as important catalysts in many processes. One such process is the methanol to gasoline reaction, used widely in industry. This reaction is known to be associated with Brønsted acid sites in the zeolite, formed when Si is substituted by Al in the framework, with an associated Hq being bound nearby to maintain ...

This communication presents the successful design of a structured catalyst based on porous anodic alumina membranes for methane dry reforming. The catalyst with a strong Ni-NiAl2O4 interaction shows both excellent activity and stability.

ZSM-11 zeolite was synthesized by hydrothermal treatment and cerium ion was incorporated by the ion exchange method.  The catalytic activity of cerium modified ZSM-11 zeolite was tested for the one-pot synthesis of 4H-pyran derivatives by cyclocondensation of aromatic aldehyde, malononitrile, and ethyl acetoacetate. The synthesized catalyst was characterized by Po...

A Y zeolite-containing wide-pore composite was synthesized by in situ technique using polyvinyl alcohol and silica sol material. A fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) catalyst for maximizing gasoline yield was successfully developed with the modified composition. The as-made zeolite Y in its sodium form had a relative crystallinity of 52.9 % with a high silica/alumina amount of substance ratio of 5....

Monometallic and bimetallic Ni and Co catalytic nanoparticles supported on Titanium dioxide (rutile phase) substrate were prepared by wet impregnation method. These nanoparicles were used as catalysts for synthesis of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) from acetylene decomposition at 700°C by the catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CCVD) technique. The nanomaterials (catalyst and CNTs) were...

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 ...

CO2 reforming of methane (CRM) over unpromoted and potassium promoted Ni/Al2O3 catalysts was studied. The catalysts were prepared by impregnation method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption (BET), temperature programmed reduction (TPR), temperature programmed oxidation (TPO) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) techniques. The obtained results showed that addition of K2...
