in the present study, tin-promoted pd/mwnts nanocatalystwas synthesized via polyol technique for application in hydrogenation of high-concentrated acetylene feedstocks. tem images showed a restricted distribution of nanoparticles in the range of 3-5 nm. the results indicated that nanoparticles sizes were resistant to further catalyst deactivation. xrd patterns signified alloying between pd and ...

• Silicalite-1 encapsulated Ni catalyst with improved stability for dry reforming of methane. Different synthesis protocols affect the structure catalysts. Fully prevents sintering and coking. The catalysts in methane (DRM) is a known issue. In this paper an encapsulation strategy has been employed to improve compared conventional impregnation methods. Herein, nickel nanoparticles silicalite-1 ...

Anthropogenic nitrogen contamination has increased in ecosystems around the world (frequently termed the "nitrogen cascade"). Coke production for steel manufacturing is often overlooked as a source of nitrogen to natural ecosystems. We examined sediment cores from a Horseshoe Lake, a floodplain lake located just East of St. Louis Missouri (USA) to test whether a coking plant effluent could be t...

The fundamentals of catalyst deactivation are presented in this review. The chemico-physical aspects concerning the various deactivation causes (i.e. poisoning, sintering, coking, solid-state transformation, masking, etc.) have been analyzed and discussed, along with the mathematical description of the deactivation phenomena. # 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
