in this research, the selective oxidation of benzene to maleic anhydride (man) in a fixed-bed reactor was studied. the gas phase catalytic oxidation of benzene was carried outin a laboratory scale fixed bed reactor on the catalysts, which were prepared having two different compositions on silica gel. the effects of temperature, flow rates of benzene and air, and catalyst type on the reaction se...

The mechanism of the low temperature oxidation of gaseous acetaldehyde was investigated in the temperature range of 1 50-400?°C. The minor, intermediate and major products were identified and measured quantitatively by sampling directly into the ionization chamber of an MS10-C2 mass spectrometer from the reactor. The formation of H2O, CO, CO2, HCOOH, H2, HCHO, CH3COOH and CH3OH as the major pro...

The exact knowledge of hydrocarbon oxidation kinetics is very important due to the fact that this process is involved in many technological processes: combustion in engines and furnaces, flame synthesis of materials, partial oxidation processes in chemical technology, catalytic combustion, and exhaust gas treatment, etc. An overview is given on the present state of the art with respect to kinet...

Bromine gas was evaluated for converting elemental mercury (Hg0) to oxidized mercury, a form that can readily be captured by the existing air pollution control device. The gas-phase oxidation rates of Hg0 by Br2 decreased with increasing temperatures. SO2, CO, HCl, and H2O had insignificant effect, while NO exhibited a reverse course of effect on the Hg0 oxidation: promotion at low NO concentra...

Atmospheric oxidation reactions are known to affect the chemical composition of organic aerosol (OA) particles over timescales of several days, but the details of such oxidative aging reactions are poorly understood. In this study we examine the rates and products of a key class of aging reaction, the heterogeneous oxidation of particle-phase organic species by the gas-phase hydroxyl radical (O...

vanadium phosphorus oxides (vpo) has been applied as a heterogeneous catalyst in gas phase oxidation reactions and its application is very limited in liquid phase. in this study a series of cobalt-doped vanadium phosphorus oxides (vpo-co) catalysts with different loading of co (0.01-1.0 mol ratio of co/v) were prepared. oxidation of benzyl alcohol was studied in the liquid phase over vpo and vp...

catalysts with the formula of laco(1+x)o(3+δ), where 0 ≤ x ≤ 1, were studied for oxidation of co and c2h6 in a synthetic exhaust gas, comprising 6.0 % co and 0.2 % c2h6 in ar. ethane was selected as a model for hydrocarbons in the exhaust gas. the performance of catalysts is correlated to their properties, particularly their redox in oxidizing and reducing atmospheres. xrd patterns show perovsk...

Traditional descriptions of gas-particle partitioning of organic aerosols (OA) rely solely on thermodynamic properties (e.g., volatility). Under realistic conditions where phase partitioning is dynamic rather than static, the transformation of OA involves the interplay of multiphase partitioning with oxidative aging. A key challenge remains in quantifying the fundamental time scales for evapora...
