Abstract The catalytic activity of synthetic samples of aluminosilicates of various morphologies and chemical compositions in a cascade of reactions that are byproducts (BPs) in the decomposition process of 4,4‑dimethyl-1,3-dioxane is studied. Aluminosilicates with montmorillonite structures (Na0.2Al1.8Mg0.2Si4O10(OH)2⋅nH2O, Mg3Si4O10(OH)2⋅nH2O), and kaolinite (Al2Si2O5(OH)4) with the spherical and platy morphologies of particles, as well as their porous-textural characteristics and surface properties, are studied. It is shown that the specific surface area of the studied samples, depending on the composition, varies from 11 to 470 m2/g, and the content of aluminum oxide in the samples ranged from 0 to 24 wt %. It is found that layered silicates with a montmorillonite structure contribute to reducing the gasification of organic raw materials and increasing the yield of isoprene. Kaolinite with a spherical morphology of particles increases the yield of formaldehyde, and with a platy morphology of particles, it increases the degree of decomposition of heteroatomic and cyclic compounds.

Various CuO-ZnO-ZrO2(CZZ) catalysts for methanol synthesis from CO2 hydrogenation were prepared by co-precipitation method. Small amount of silica was incorporated into CZZ catalyst to produce these modified ternary CZZ catalysts. The effects of silica on physicochemical and catalytic properties were studied by TG-DTG,XRD,BET,N2O chemisorption,H2-TPR,NH3-TPD and CO2-TPD techniques. The results show that the properties of catalysts were strongly influenced by the content of SiO2 used as promoter. The catalytic performance for methanol synthesis from CO2 hydrogenation was evaluated. The test results show that the CZZ catalyst modified with 4 wt.% SiO2 exhibits an optimum catalytic activity. The silica improves the dispersion of CuO and its modified CZZ catalysts exhibits higher specific surface area, which were confirmed to be responsible for excellent performance of the catalysts for methanol synthesis from CO2 hydrogenation.

Catalysts based on zirconia- and alumina-supported tungsten oxides (15 wt % W) with a small loading of platinum (0.3 wt % Pt) were selected to study the influence of the reduction temperature and the nature of the support on the hydroisomerization of n-dodecane. The reduction temperature has a major influence on metal dispersion, which impacts the catalytic activity. In addition, alumina and zirconia supports show different catalytic properties (mainly acid site strength and surface area), which play an important role in the conversion. The NH3-TPD profiles indicate that the acidity in alumina-based catalysts is clearly higher than that in their zirconia counterparts; this acidity can be attributed to a stronger interaction of the WOx species with alumina. The PtW/Al catalyst was found to exhibit the best catalytic performance for the hydroisomerization of n-dodecane based on its higher acidity, which was ascribed to its larger surface area relative to that of its zirconia counterparts. The selectivity for different hydrocarbons (C7–10, C11 and i-C12) was very similar for all the catalysts studied, with branched C12 hydrocarbons being the main products obtained (~80%). The temperature of 350 °C was clearly the best reduction temperature for all the catalysts studied in a trickled-bed-mode reactor.

Описаны и теоретически обоснованы разработанные технологические приемы производства мучных кондитерских изделий при сохранении влаги на всех стадиях производства. В рамках исследования решали следующие задачи: увеличение удельной поверхности частиц дисперсной фазы эмульсии за счет моделирования рецептурного состава; дезагрегирование муки, повышение равномерности распределения дисперсионной среды (эмульсии) с образованием оболочек вокруг максимально возможного количества частиц муки различных фракций. Объектом для моделирования рецептурного состава было сахарное печенье. Установлено, что замена рецептурных компонентов с повышенной влажностью на сырье с высоким содержанием сухих веществ позволяет высвободить влагу и использовать новые виды сырья с повышенными нативными свойствами. Предложенные приемы подготовки сырьевых компонентов: снижение вязкости солодового экстракта, используемого для снижения количества сахара-песка, осмотическое набухание яичного порошка, пластикация жира со стабилизацией его структуры лецитином, инверсия сахарозы в условиях совмещения гидродинамического и акустического кавитационных воздействий при получении инвертного сиропа – обеспечивают благоприятные условия получения эмульсии с повышенной удельной поверхностью. Отличительной особенностью предлагаемой технологии является получение эмульсии в две стадии: приготовление суспензии без жира и собственно получение эмульсии. Раздельная подача сахара в два приема: 40–60% его рецептурного количества вносится на стадии приготовления суспензии, оставшаяся часть – при приготовлении эмульсии – и кавитационная обработка суспензии при температуре 36–38°С и частоте колебаний волновода 24 кГц позволяют повысить частичную концентрацию частиц сахара в 8–12 раз. При приготовлении эмульсии пластицированный жир и лецитин предварительно смешивают с оставшейся частью сахара-песка, а затем с суспензией. Дезагрегированную путем аэрации муку и эмульсию одновременно и параллельно подают в месильную машину для достижения их заданного соотношения до начала процесса тестообразования. Разработанный комплекс технологических приемов позволил создать технологический поток производства сахарного печенья с улучшенными показателями качества – намокаемостью до 230% (по классической технологии 180–200%), сниженной на 20% плотностью, повышенными пористостью и рассыпчатостью и сохраняющего до 92% влажности, что на 18% выше, чем в изделиях, полученных по классической технологии. The developed technological techniques for the production of flour confectionery products while maintaining moisture at all stages of production are described and theoretically justified. The following tasks were solved in the framework of the study: increasing the specific surface area of the particles of the dispersed phase of the emulsion by modeling the recipe composition; disaggregating flour, increasing the uniformity of the distribution of the dispersion medium (emulsion) with the formation of shells around the maximum possible number of flour particles of various fractions. The object for modeling the formulation composition was sugar cookies. It is established that the replacement of prescription components with high humidity with raw materials with a high content of dry substances allows you to release moisture and use new types of raw materials with increased native properties. The proposed methods of preparation of raw materials: reducing the viscosity of malt extract used to reduce the amount of granulated sugar, osmotic swelling of egg powder, fat plasticization with the stabilization of its structure with lecithin, sucrose inversion under conditions of combining hydrodynamic and acoustic cavitation effects in the production of invert syrup – provide favorable conditions for obtaining an emulsion with an increased specific surface area. The production of an emulsion in two stages is a distinctive feature of the proposed technology: the preparation of a suspension without fat and the actual production of the emulsion. Separate supply of sugar in two steps: 40–60% of its prescription amount is introduced at the stage of preparation of the suspension, the remaining part – during the preparation of the emulsion – and cavitation treatment of the suspension at a temperature of 36–38°С and the waveguide oscillation frequency of 24 kHz, it is possible to increase the partial concentration of sugar particles by 8–12 times. When preparing the emulsion, the plasticized fat and lecithin are pre-mixed with the remaining part of the granulated sugar, and then with the suspension. The aeration-disaggregated flour and emulsion are fed simultaneously and in parallel to the kneading machine to achieve their desired ratio before the dough-forming process begins. The developed complex of technological techniques allowed to create a technological flow for the production of sugar cookies with improved quality indicators – wetting up to 230% (according to the classical technology 180–200%), reduced density by 20%, increased porosity and friability, and preserving up to 92% humidity, which is 18% higher than in products obtained by the classical technology.

In order to prepare carbon nanotubes with high specific surface area, small diameter, low resistivity, high purity and high catalytic activity, the Fe-Mo/Al2O3 catalyst was prepared based on the microreactor. The influence of different Fe/Al molar ratios on the catalyst and the carbon nanotubes prepared was studied through BET, SEM, TEM and other detection methods. Studies have shown that the pore structure of the catalyst is dominated by slit pores at a lower Fe/Al molar ratio. The catalytic activity is the highest when the Fe/Al molar ratio is 1:1, reaching 74.1%. When the Fe/Al molar ratio is 1:2, the catalyst has a higher specific surface area, the maximum pore size is 8.63 nm, and the four-probe resistivity and ash content of the corresponding carbon nanotubes are the lowest. The higher the proportion of aluminum, the higher the specific surface area of the catalyst and the carbon nanotubes, and the finer the diameter of the carbon nanotubes, which gradually tends to relax. The results show that when the Fe/Al molar ratio is 1:2, although the catalytic activity of the catalyst is not the highest, the carbon nanotubes prepared have the best performance.

<p>Electrode materials were prepared from activated carbonizates of walnut shell, apricot pits and shungite rock from “Bakyrchik” deposit, East Kazakhstan. Physicochemical characteristics of the obtained samples were studied by the Brunauer-Emett-Taylor method, scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and other methods. Electrochemical properties of the obtained materials were studied by the method of cyclic voltammetry. It was found that the samples have an amorphous structure. Samples based on plant raw materials after hydrothermal carbonization at 240 °С during 24 h, have more homogeneous and developed surface. Specific surface area of carbon containing materials based on apricot pits is 1300 m<sup>2</sup>/g, for those on the based on mineral raw material, it is 153 m<sup>2</sup>/g. It was shown that materials after hydrothermal carbonization can be used for catalytic purposes and electrodes after thermal carbonization for analytical and electrocatalytic purposes. Electrode obtained by HTC have electrocatalytic activity. CSC 240 has high background current (slope i/Е is 43 mА V<sup>–1</sup> cm<sup>–2</sup>), low potential of the hydrogen electroreduction (more positive by ~ 0.5 V than samples based on plant raw materials). The reaction of DA determination is more pronounced on the electrodes obtained by HTC 240 °C, 24 h, due to the nature, carbon structure and high specific surface area of obtained samples.</p>

AbstractThe influence of chromium compounds on the properties of cobalt molybdenum nitrides was studied. CoMoO4 obtained by precipitation from cobalt and molybdenum salts was modified by the addition of chromium(III) nitrate. A mixture of cobalt-molybdenum nitrides, Co2Mo3N and Co3Mo3N, was formed by ammonolysis of modified CoMoO4. The concentration of Co2Mo3N decreases with increasing chromium content. The specific surface area of cobalt molybdenum nitrides consisting of 2 wt% of Cr atoms increased by 50% in comparison to pure cobalt molybdenum nitrides. The catalytic activity of obtained catalysts in ammonia synthesis process decreases with rising of chromium concentration.

Two samples of Cr2O3/Al2O3 were prepared by mixing a known mass of finely powdered Al(OH)3 with a calculated amount of CrO3 solid followed by drying at 120°C and calcination at 400°C. The amounts of chromium oxide employed were 5.66 and 20 mol% Cr2O3, respectively. The calcined solid specimens were then treated with different doses of γ-rays (20–160 Mrad). The surface and catalytic properties of the different irradiated solids were investigated using nitrogen adsorption at −196°C and the catalysis of CO oxidation by O2 at 300–400°C. The results revealed that γ-rays brought about a slight decrease in the BET surface area, SBET (15%), and in the total pore volume, Vp (20%), of the adsorbent containing 5.66 mol% Cr2O3. The same treatment increased the total pore volume, Vp (36%), and the mean pore radius, r̄ (43%), of the other adsorbent sample without changing its BET surface area. The catalytic activities of both catalyst samples were found to increase as a function of dose, reaching a maximum value at 80–160 Mrad and 40 Mrad for the solids containing 5.66 and 20 mol% Cr2O3, respectively. The maximum increase in the catalytic activity measured at 300°C was 59% and 100% for the first and second catalyst samples, respectively. The induced effect of γ-irradiation on the catalytic activity was an increase in the concentration of catalytically active sites taking part in chemisorption and in the catalysis of CO oxidation by O2 without changing their energetic nature. This was achieved by a progressive removal of surface hydroxy groups during the irradiation process.

This work investigates the catalytic activity of geopolymers produced using two different alkali components (sodium or potassium) and four treatment temperatures (110 to 700 °C) for the methyl transesterification of soybean oil. The geopolymers were prepared with metakaolin as an aluminosilicate source and alkaline activating solutions containing either sodium or potassium in the same molar oxide proportions. The potassium-based formulation displayed a higher specific surface area and lower average pore size (28.64–62.54 m²/g; 9 nm) than the sodium formulation (6.34–32.62 m²/g; 17 nm). The reduction in specific surface area (SSA) after the heat treatment was more severe for the sodium formulation due to the higher thermal shrinkage. The catalytic activity of the geopolymer powders was compared under the same reactional conditions (70–75 °C, 150% methanol excess, 4 h reaction) and same weight amounts (3% to oil). The differences in performance were attributed to the influences of sodium and potassium on the geopolymerization process and to the accessibility of the reactants to the catalytic sites. The Na-based geopolymers performed better, with FAME contents in the biodiesel phase of 85.1% and 89.9% for samples treated at 500 and 300 °C, respectively. These results are competitive in comparison with most heterogeneous base catalysts reported in the literature, considering the very mild conditions of temperature, excess methanol and catalyst amount and the short time spent in reactions.
