In this work, Fe/Ru-catalyst supported on hyper-crosslinked polystyrene (HPS) synthesized via hydrothermal deposition was proposed for the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) to obtain a high yield of gasoline-ranged hydrocarbons. According to the characteriza ...
Liquid fuel production from biomass-derived molecules has received great attention due to the diminished fossil fuel reserves, growing energy demand, and the necessity of CO2 emission reduction. The deoxygenation of oils and fatty acids is a promising proc ...
Platform chemicals, also known as chemical building blocks, are substances that serve as starting materials for the synthesis of various value-added products, which find a wide range of applications. These chemicals are the key ingredients for many fine an ...
The bacterial inactivation kinetics of Escherichia coli (E. coli) by innovative sputtered TiMoON and TiMoON-Ag films under simulated solar light irradiation is accounted for in a detailed, comprehensive and systematic form. This study presents the evidence ...
Lignin obtained by hydrogenolysis of lignocellulose biomass is a prospective source of valuable green fuels and chemicals such as monophenols. One of the key factors in the chemical decomposition of lignin to monophenols is an efficient catalyst. Inert por ...
In this work, for the first time, naphthalene (NA)-based polymers were synthesized by one-stage Friedel-Crafts crosslinking. The influence of NA functionalization by -OH, -SO3H, and -NO2 groups on the polymers' porosity and distribution of the catalyticall ...
The alloys of Zn0.34Cd0.66S QDs show a high photocatalytic activity when mediating the hydrogen production from water with a reaction rate of 233 +/- 9 mu mol h(-1) g(-1). The reaction is carried out in the presence of ascorbic acid as sacrificial electron ...
This work is addressing the selective hydrogenation of alkynols over hybrid catalysts containing Pd-nanoparticles, within newly synthesized hyper-cross-linked polystyrenes (HPS). Alkynols containing C-5, C-10, and C-20 with a terminal triple bond, which ar ...
Among different polymers nanostructured cross-linked aromatics have the greatest potential as catalytic supports due to their exceptional thermal and chemical stability and preservation of the active phase morphology. This work studies the ability of hyper ...
This work is addressing the arenes' hydrogenation-the processes of high importance for petrochemical, chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Noble metal (Pd, Pt, Ru) nanoparticles (NPs) stabilized in hyper-cross-linked polystyrene (HPS) were shown to be a ...
Hydrogenation of aromatic compounds is a widely used catalytic process in modern industry. Selective hydrogenation of benzene (BZ)-toluene (TL) mixtures is an important industrial process as it allows the purification of BZ for further synthetic purposes. ...
Efficient structured catalysts of partial methane oxidation into synthesis gas were obtained by electrochemical modification of the surface of sintered FeCrAl alloy fibers in an ionic liquid BMIM-NTf, with further introduction of platinum nanoparticles. It ...
This work is addressed to the phenomenon of catalyst deactivation taking place during the repeated uses in the reaction of Suzuki-Miyaura (S-M) cross-coupling, which is widely applied in industry for C-C bond formation. Ligandless catalysts based on Pd(0) ...
We have carried out a systematic investigation of the critical activation parameters (i.e., final temperature (673-1273 K), atmosphere (He vs. O-2/He), and final isothermal hold (1 min-15 h) on the generation of "alpha-sites", responsible for the direct N2 ...
We have investigated the catalytic effect of the beta-phase PdZn alloy on selective gas-phase hydrogenation of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol over Pd/ZnO using Pd/Al2O3 as a benchmark. Activation (in H-2) of Pd/ZnO to 973 K generated a beta-phase PdZn alloy (from X ...
Supercritical (SC) fluid technologies are well-established methods in modern green chemical synthesis. Using SC fluids as solvents instead of traditional liquids gives benefits of higher diffusivity and lower viscosity, which allows mass transfer intensifi ...
The catalytic effect of nitrogen incorporation into Mo on hydrogenation (of -NO2 to -NH2 in nitrobenzene to aniline) and hydrogenolysis (of -C?O in benzaldehyde to toluene) processes has been assessed. Bulk Mo was prepared by temperature programmed reducti ...
This paper describes the synthesis of Pd-containing catalysts based on nonfunctionalized hypercrosslinked polystyrene via impregnation with Pd acetate. Developed Pd nanoparticulate catalyst allowed achieving conversion of aryl halide up to 90% in Suzuki cr ...
Activated carbon fibers (ACFs) with surface modified by a diethylene triamine (DETA) are synthesized for the abatement of formaldehyde in gas phase at low concentration. Adsorbents with several DETA loadings were tested and characterized. The amount of DET ...
