Reflux condensation synthesis and characterization of Co3O4 nanoparticles for photocatalytic applications

In this research work, we report a simple method called reflux condensation method for synthesizing Co3O4 nanoparticles using cheap chemicals such as, cobalt acetate (precursor salt), sodium monododecyl sulphate – SDS (surfactant) and N, N – Dimethylformamide – DMF (solvent). The prepared materials were heat treated at 200, 400, 600 and 800 oC for each […]

Operating condition effect on achieving higher propene yield in propane oxidative dehydrogenation process

Supported vanadia catalyst was successfully synthesized using wet impregnation of gamma-Alumina to study Propane Oxidative Dehydrogenation (POD). The prepared catalysts were characterized with XRD, BET, and TPR tests. In a broad temperature range (340 to 630°C), effects of vanadia loading (2.7, 5.4, and 9 wt%) and propane to oxygen ratio (3/1 to 1/3) were investigated […]
