The photocatalytic activity of nano-Bi2O3 was evaluated in degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) as a model of dye pollutant from waste waters. Nano sized Bi2O3 was synthesized using the chemical precipitation method. The as-prepared sample was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR). Structural analysis revealed that […]
In this work, the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was investigated by applying the Design of the Experiment in normal heptane isomerization. The design was guided to three surface responses on the dependency of normal heptane conversion, isomerization selectivity, and research octane number on the reaction temperature (200 – 350 °C), the weight percentage of protonated […]
