Since the discovery of zeolites there has been a consistent interest in the potential applications of these microporous structures. Of current particular interest is the possible use of zeolites as storage devices for fuel cells in the hydrogen economy. The adsorption kinetics of zeolites are not fully understood, and therefore the potential of such materials has not been optimized. In this stu...

in this paper we report synthesis of fe2tio5-5a zeolite (z5a) nanocomposites with 5%, 10% and 20% weight percent of fe2tio5 in 5a zeolite in stearic acid media after calcination of the gel samples obtained at 600-900°c for 2 hrs. the powder x-ray diffraction (xrd) patterns have been used for characterization of the prepared samples. the scanning electron microscopy (sem) images and x-ray energy...

This study reports on the EPR of C r 5 + and C u 2 + ions, introduced by solidand liquid-state reactions with the synthetic zeolites 3A, 4A and 5A, and the natural zeolite clinoptilolite. C r 3 + was oxidized to Cr 5 + in the samples, the coordination around Cr 5 + being square pyramidal. Superhyperfine (shf) interaction of Cr with A1 nucleus was observed in both solidand liquid-stateintroduced...

rigorous mathematical modeling of adsorption processes in packed beds involves time-consuming computations which are considered as the fundamental weakness of such thorough mathematical models. thus, reducing the computation time was a key factor in improving adsorption mathematical models. in order to achieve this goal, an attempt was made to know how much using different numerical methods inf...

Zeolites/molecular sieves with uniform, molecular-sized pores are important for many adsorption-based separation processes. Pore size gaps, however, exist in the current zeolite family. This leads to a great challenge of separating molecules with size differences at ~0.01 nm level. Here, we report a novel concept, pore misalignment, to form a continuously adjustable, molecular-sieving "gate" at...

The use of zeolites for the adsorption of harmful gases has widened [1, 2]. In [2] we have studied the ionic states, motional behavior and binding degrees of SO2 and CO2 reacted with type 5A (CaA) zeolite, and we have concluded that SO2 is adsorbed on the surfaces while CO2 is absorbed in the deep pores of this zeolite. In the present work the binding states of CO2 on the same zeolite was inves...

A composite zeolite adsorbent was prepared by conformally depositing an ultrathin porous TiO2 coating on the external surface of the 5A zeolite by molecular layer deposition (MLD) and subsequent calcination. The composite adsorbent showed significantly improved ideal adsorption selectivity for CO2-CH4, CO2-N2 and propylene-propane.
