an efficient method for the friedel–crafts acylation of a wide range of aromatic compounds in good to excellent yields under solvent-free conditions, using iron zirconium phosphate (zpfe) was investigated. the catalyst is easy to prepare and shows interesting catalytic properties. the catalyst was characterized by some instrumental techniques such as xrd, icp-oes, sem and tem. a wide variety of...

conclusions according to the results, it can be concluded that the titanium catalyst doped with iron (fe+3-tio2) processes is an appropriate method for reducing atrazine in polluted water resources. results the results demonstrated that the atrazine removal rate increased by decreasing the initial atrazine concentration and the maximum rate of atrazine removal (41.72%) was at ph = 11, atrazine ...

sorption results9 revealed that the iron surface was mostly covered by promoter oxides of AI, Ca, and K. Postreaction XPS results also revealed a C( Is) XPS peak of weak to moderate intensity centered at 284.1-283.7 eV. This binding energy approaches those (ca. 283.5 eV) reported for iron cat bide^.^^*'^ More convincing evidence for carbide formation was obtained from TPHT results collected aft...

The effects of confinement in carbon nanotubes on Fischer-Tropsch (FT) activity, selectivity and lifetime of Carbon NanoTubes (CNTs) supported iron catalysts are reported. A method was developed to control the position of the catalytic sites on either inner or outer surface of carbon nanotubes. TEM analyses revealed that more than 80% of iron oxide particles can be controlled to be position...

Catalysts play a key role in the growth of carbon nanotubes. The microwave plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition (MPACVD) method is now commonly used for directional and conformal growth of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on substrates. In this work, we report on the effect of H(2) plasma pre-treatment on the diameter and density of iron catalyst nanoparticles for different iron layer thicknesses i...

Alveolar macrophages (AM) from smokers contain a much higher quantity of intracellular iron than AM from nonsmokers. Since some forms of iron will catalyze the formation of hydroxyl radical (.OH) from superoxide and hydrogen peroxide, the ability of AM derived from smokers and nonsmokers to generate .OH was assessed. No detectable .OH was produced by AM from either source, suggesting that iron ...

A highly active heterogeneous Fenton catalyst was fabricated by impregnating iron oxide nanoparticles in alumina coated mesoporous SBA-15 silica.

Using iron oxide as catalyst, glycerol can be converted to allyl alcohol through a dehydration and consecutive hydrogen transfer.

The performance of silicon for water oxidation and hydrogen production can be improved by exploiting the antireflective properties of nanostructured silicon substrates. In this work, silicon nanowires were fabricated by metal-assisted electroless etching of silicon. An enhanced photocurrent density of -17 mA/cm² was observed for the silicon nanowires coated with an iron sulphur carbonyl catalys...

The characteristics and performances of catalyst are the key in catalytic ultrasonic treatment of wastewater, and iron based catalysts are known for low cost, high accessibility and safety. This paper reviewed the current research status of iron-based catalysts in water treatment assisted by ultrasound. Zero valent iron, Fe3O4 and iron composited with other metals were analyzed, their behaviors...
