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...

background: there are great resources of natural zeolite in iran. zeolite, an inorganic ion-exchanger, may be used as a suitable technical-economical solution for water treatment in many regions of iran. in this study, the characterization of natural zeolite natrolite and the feasibility of removing hardness, cations, and anions were investigated. methods: first, zeolite composition and type we...

Wastewaters of several industries such as textile, leather or dye etc., contain dangerous and toxic compounds, even some which are potential carcinogenics. Considering the volume composition, wastewaters textile industry have much more polluting characteristics compared to other industries. Although treatment processes must definitely be implemented in point environment living organisms, many f...

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...

Methanol is an important feedstock in numerous catalytic processes. It can be produced via Fischer-Tropsch reaction from synthesis gas [1] and its further transformation to hydrocarbons up to C10 is the basis of several industrially important reactions as for instance the Methanol to Gasoline process [2]. Methanol can also be used as an alkylating agent for aromatic compounds in zeolite-catalys...

The investigation on the modification of NaY zeolite on LaHY and AEHY (AE refers Ca and Sr and the molar ratio of Ca and Sr is 1:1) zeolites was proformed by XRD, N2-physisorption (BET), XRF, XPS, NH3-TPD, Py-IR, hydrothermal stability, and catalytic cracking test. These results indicate that HY zeolite with ultra low content Na can be obtained from NaY zeolite through four exchange four calcin...

Bio-based furanics can be aromatized efficiently by sequential Diels-Alder (DA) addition and hydrogenation steps followed by tandem catalytic aromatization. With a combination of zeolite H-Y and Pd/C, the hydrogenated DA adduct of 2-methylfuran and maleic anhydride can thus be aromatized in the liquid phase and, to a certain extent, decarboxylated to give high yields of the aromatic products 3-...

The reaction of fly ash with a KOH solution was used to synthesize Linde F(K) zeolite, following which Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to characterize the crystalline material. The competitive adsorption of Cu, Ni, Pb, and Cd onto this zeolite was subsequently studied in quaternary solution systems. The results show that the metal removal rates gradually increase with incr...
