Eco-friendly preparation and characterization of CuMn2O4 nanoparticles with the green capping agent and their photocatalytic and photovoltaic applications

In this study, copper manganese oxide (CuMn2O4) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by a simple sol-gel technique in the presence of lactose as the green capping agent. The lactose concentration effect on the crystalline size and magnetic properties of final products were systematically investigated. The structural, morphological, magnetic, and optical properties of as-obtained products were examined […]

Inorganic-organic hybrid nanomaterial (Fe3O4@SiO2-AQ): A retrievable heterogeneous catalyst for the green synthesis of 4H-chromenes

Preparation of 4-aminiquinaldine grafted on silica-coated nano-Fe3O4 particles (Fe3O4@SiO2-AQ) as a novel retrievable heterogeneous nanocatalyst is described. This novel hybrid nanomaterial was applicated for the green synthesis of substituted 2-amino-4H-chromenes via the one-pot condensation reaction of an aldehyde, malononitrile and α-naphthol/β-naphthol/phenol under solvent-free condition. Eco-friendly method, high yield and purity of the desired products, short […]

Effect of acidity and physical properties of nanozeolite catalyst on hydrocracking of vacuum gas oil

In this study, beta nanozeolite, ultra-stable Y zeolite (USY) and amorphous silica-alumina (ASA) were synthesized. These compounds were used as the support of hydrocracking catalyst. Ni-Mo/beta zeolite-ASA and Ni-Mo/USY zeolite-ASA catalysts were prepared by the impregnation method. The samples were characterized with X-Ray diffraction (XRD), field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), temperature programmed desorption (TPD) and […]

The performance of NiMo/SiO2-Al2O3 and NiMo/SO4-Al2O3 catalysts for hydrocracking of n-hexadecane

In this study, the performance of NiMo catalysts over an amorphous SiO2-Al2O3 and SO4-Al2O3 with various contents of H2SO4 was investigated for the n-hexadecane hydrocracking (n-C16) using a down flow fixed bed micro-reactor. The synthesized catalysts were characterized using BET, XRD, and NH3-TPD analysis. The analysis of the coke formed on the catalysts has been […]

Synthesis of ternary Ce2O3/La2O3/Fe3O4 oxides as a potential catalyst for SO2 reduction by CH4 to sulfur

In this study, ternary mixed metal oxide (Ce2O3/La2O3/Fe3O4) catalysts were synthesized for reduction of SO2 to sulfur by CH4. The response surface method (RSM) was used to optimize the synthesis conditions. The XRD, FESEM, BET, BJH, EDX and NH3-TPD analyses were performed to characterize the synthesized catalysts. The optimum conditions were obtained for an activated […]

Oxidative desulfurization of light fuel oil by using hydrogen peroxide in the presence of acetic acid catalyst

Hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant agent was used for desulfurization of a petroleum hydrocarbon fraction (C10-C22) with boiling range of 175-375 ℃, (light fuel oil) in the presence of acetic acid as catalyst. The oxidation was performed in an ultrasonic bath. It is found that increasing the amount of hydrogen peroxide lead to increase the […]
