The kinetic characteristics of the Ni/Al2O3 and Ni/MgO-Al2O3 catalysts were investigated in CO2 reforming of methane (CRM). The reaction orders (α and β) and the rate constant (k) were calculated using the non-linear regression analysis, in which the sum of the squared differences of calculated and experimental CO2 reforming of methane rates were minimized. The […]
The reaction kinetics of the isomerization 3,4-dichlorobutene-1 to 1,4-dichlorobutene-2 was investigated by using gas-liquid chromatography method in the presence of Fe2O3/MgO as solid catalyst in the temperature range 25-55°C. Fe2O3/MgO has been prepared by the support saturation method, tested in the isomerization of 3, 4-dichlorobutene-1 into 1, 4-dichlorobutene-2. This catalyst shows a high activity opposite […]
Acetic acid has been applied as an efficient catalyst and a green solvent for the two–component condensation reaction consisting of benzaldehyde, 2-amino-benzamide. The advantages of this protocol was excellent yield, short reaction time, mild reaction conditions, higher availability, low costs, more environmentally friendly, lack of need for column chromatography and simple work-up procedure. In addition, […]
Sucrose is applied as an efficient catalyst for the three-component reaction consisting of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile and resorcinol in a mixture of water and ethanol media as green solvents. The advantages of this method are excellent yeild, inexpensive catalyst and more environmentally friendly. Mechanistic insight into the synthesis of 2-amino-4H-chromene included spectral kinetics approaches is […]
In the present research work, the kinetics of sunflower oil transesterification reaction in the presence of Ba-Sr/ZSM-5 nanocatalyst which prepared using incipient wetness impregnation method was investigated. The 10wt.%Ba-Sr/ZSM-5 (Sr/Ba=3/2) nanocatalyst was calcined at 600 °C for 6 h with a heating rate of 3 ºC/min. The experimental conditions were the methanol/oil 9/1molar ratio, reaction […]
In this work, kinetics and thermodynamics of esterification reaction were studied. This research investigated the esterification reaction between methanol and acidified oil catalyzed by sulfonated cation exchange resin and proposed a new rate equation for consideration of kinetics of this reaction according to the Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism. Thermodynamics and kinetics parameters were calculated according to this […]
Two different possible mechanisms of water gas shift reaction including formate and redox mechanisms on the Ag5 cluster were investigated using DFT computations. All the elementary steps involved in both mechanisms were considered. It was observed that dissociation of H2Oads and OHads, as well as formation of CO2(ads), required activation energy. For these steps, transition […]
Both metal oxides, ceria (CeO2) and stania (SnO2) are prepared by precipitation technique using ammonia solution (1:1) and characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), x-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), nitrogen adsorption-desorption (for the specific surface area determination, SBET) and used in the photodegradation of Tenoxicam (TEN) antibiotics by using ultraviolet irradiation in presence […]
