The nitric oxide (NO) removal capacity of ion-exchanged zeolite Y obtained from coal combustion fly ash was evaluated in this work. Zeolite Y was exchanged either with Cu or Fe to obtain two different catalysts for the selective catalytic reduction of NOx from flue gas. The selective catalytic reduction experiments were carried out at temperatures ranging from 50°C to 350°C, water content 0% an...

Dye-exchanged Y zeolite is shown to be an effective medium to control the stereoselectivity in the photooxygenation of chiral oxazolidinone-functionalized Z/E-1 enecarbamates. An enantioselectivity (ee) as high as 80% was observed in the methyldesoxybenzoin (MDB) product, obtained in the methylene-blue-exchanged NaY zeolite at room temperature. The efficacy of the asymmetric induction in the MD...

Fast (>I2 kHz) magic-angle-spinning NMR with IH' 7AI cross-polarization quantitatively monitors several aluminous species in dealuminated zeolite Y; the non-framework matter contains 4-, 5-and 6-coordinated A1 and the *7AI signal at 30 ppm is an independent resonance probably due to 5-coordinated non-framework Al and not part of a second-order quadrupole lineshape as previously reported. Since ...

MnTiO3-Zeolite-Y nanocomposites were synthesized with 5-10-20% (w/w) of MnTiO3 by stearic acid gel method. Then, the gels were calcined at 900 °C for 4 hours and the resulted spectra were investigated at 20% (w/w) concentration. Also, the presence of rhombohedral phase of MnTiO3 in Zeolite-Y matrix was confirmed by XRD, SEM, EDX and BET. The VSM results showed t...

2,4,6-Triphenylpyrylium cation encapsulated within zeolite Y promotes highly selective transformation of olefins to ketones with molecular oxygen, under visible light (lambda > 400 nm) irradiation at room temperature.

Catalyst S. Al-Khattaf* Chemical Engineering Department, King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals Dhahran 31261, Saudi Arabia Abstract Catalytic transformation of toluene has been investigated over Y-zeolite based catalysts in a novel riser simulator at different operating conditions. A number of experiments were carried out in the temperature range of 400-500C to understand the transformat...

Oxovanadium(IV), manganese(II) and copper(II) complexes of a Schiff base ligand derived from 2,4-dihydroxyacetophenone and 1,2-diaminocyclohexane have been encapsulated in the nanocavity of zeolite-Y by flexible ligand method and characterized by metal analysis, IR spectroscopic studies and X-ray diffraction patterns. The encapsulated complexes abbreviated here as CuL-Y, MnL-Y and VOL-Y catalyz...

Structured catalysts formed from the growth of zeolites on substrates is an area of increasing interest due to the increased efficiency of the catalytic process, and the ability to provide superior heat transfer and thermal conductivity for both exothermic and endothermic processes. However, the generation of structured catalysts represents a significant challenge when balancing the relationshi...

a computational study of the electronic structure and stability of complexes formed between zeolite y and boric acid was carried out at the hf and b3lyp levels using 6-31g* basis set. five structures located as local minimum in pes of complex (structures d, e, f, g, and h). the most stable structure is formed due to hydrogen bonding between two hydroxyl of boric acid and both oxygen of ...

Ni-, Cu-, and Fe-loaded acidic and basic Y zeolites were synthesized, and their catalytic properties for oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane (ODHE) to ethylene were characterized. Acidic Ni-loaded Y zeolite exhibits an ethylene productivity of up to 1:08 gC2H4 g 1 cat h 1 with a selectivity of 75%. Acidic Cuand Fe-loaded Y zeolites have an ethylene productivity of up to 0:37 gC2H4 g 1 cat h 1 a...
