We describe a photocatalytic system that reveals latent photooxidant behavior from one of the most reducing conventional photoredox catalysts, N-phenylphenothiazine (PTH). This aerobic photochemical reaction engages difficult to oxidize feedstocks, such as benzene, in C(sp2)–N coupling reactions through direct oxidation. Mechanistic studies are consistent with activation PTH via photooxidation ...

The use of an inorganic phase in water-in-oil (w/o) microemulsion has recently received considerable attention for preparing metal oxide nanoparticles. This is a technique, which allows preparation of ultrafine metal oxide nanoparticles within the size range 40 to 80 nm. Preparation of nano chromium (III) oxide studied investigated in the inverse microemulsion system. Therefore the nucleation o...

In the current study, reduction of nitrogen oxide from exhaust gas in the presence of NH3 as reductant on selective catalytic reductant (SCR) impregnated catalytic converter was simulated using Comsol© software. Mass transfer (one-dimensional) and heat transfer (three-dimensional) governing equations were taken into account to model the unsteady state behavior of the catalytic converter. Modeli...

an alumina supported co/ni catalyst was prepared by sol-gel procedure to study the catalytic behavior during fischer-tropsch synthesis in a fixed-bed reactor. the effect of co conversion (10-50%) on hydrocarbon product distribution (ch4, c5+ and c2-c4 olefin selectivities) was studied. selectivity for ch4 decreased, while those of c5+ and olefin selectivities increased with increasing co conver...

tungsten trioxide nanoparticles with two different sizes (average particle sizes about 50 and 80 nm) were prepared by the spray pyrolysis method. photo degradation of congo red (azo dye) showed that photo catalytic property of the as-prepared wo3 nanoparticles with average size about 80 nm is higher than the sample with average size about 50 nm. photo degradation of rhodamine b (cationic triary...

Since their discovery in 2004, carbon dots (CDs), with particle sizes < 10 nm, have found use various applications, mainly based on the material’s fluorescent properties. However, other potential uses of CDs remain relatively unexplored when compared to carbon-based nanomaterials. In particular, as catalysts and supports for catalytic reactions, is still its infancy. Many studies indicated a...
