Kinetic study of toluene and benzene alkylation with isopropyl alcohol on alumo- and ferrisilicates of MFI structure has shown that the alkylation activity does not follow the acidity (both the number and strength of bridging OH groups) of these molecular sieves. The rate of the overall reaction is controlled by the desorption/transport rate of bulky, strongly adsorbed cymenes and cumene. A higher concentration of n-propyltoluenes compared to n-propylbenzene, both undesired reaction products, formed via a bimolecular isomerization of isopropyl aromate with benzene or toluene, was due to the higher reactivity of isopropyltoluene with toluene in comparison with that of cumene with benzene. It is concluded that ferrisilicates of MFI structure possessing low strength acid sites appear to be promising catalysts for achieving both a high isopropyl- and para-selectivity in toluene alkylation to p-cymene.

The present study was conducted in order to investigate the adsorption and desorption behavior of Mefenpyr-diethyl (MFD) using the batch equilibration technique in four soils, with different ranges of organic matter content, from different regions of Morocco orders of Benimellal (Soil 1), Settat (Soil 2), Sidi Bettach (Soil 3) and EL Hajeb (Soil 4). The adsorption isotherm models Langmuir, linear and Freundlich were used to compare the adsorption capacity of the soils. The results indicated that the Freundlich equation provided the best fit for all adsorption data. The values of KF and Kd ranged from 4.45 to 15.9 and 4.30 to 18.30 L.kg-1 , respectively. The calculated total percentage of desorption values from the Soil 1, Soil 2, Soil 3 and Soil 4 after the four desorption process were 59 %; 55,6 %; 37,5 % and 52,5%, respectively. Highest adsorption and desorption were observed in soil 1, and the lowest was in soil 3. According to the adsorption and desorption results, organic matter and clay seemed to be the most important factors influencing the adsorption capacity of MFD.

Abstract Dynamic vapor sorption equipment (AQUADVS) was used to determine adsorption and desorption isotherms for powder rich in fiber (PRF) produced from Palm Date flesh of Sifri cultivar (Phoenix dactylifera L.) at temperatures 25, 35 and 45 °C in a wide range of water activity (0.09–0.87). Equilibrium was achieved within 29 and 25 h for the adsorption and desorption process respectively. The obtained data were fitted to ten models (Peleg, GAB, BET, Halsey, Oswin, Smith, Modified Henderson, Adam and Shove, Modified Oswin and Modified Halsey). The results indicated that the PRF followed type III behavior. The empirical Peleg model was found to be the best to represent the experimental data in the water activity range 0.09–0.87. The isosteric heat of sorption and the differential entropy decreased by increasing the moisture content and can be predicted by polynomial functions. Glass transition temperatures (Tg) of PRF were determined. The Tg decreased as the moisture content increased and can be correlated using the Gordon and Taylor model (R2=0.976). The PRF should be stored at moisture less than 9 d.b.% and temperature less than 35 °C.
