Abstract The Friedel-Crafts acylation of furan with acetic anhydride to produce 2-acyl furan is industrially important. With an aim of replacing the highly polluting process, it this study, supported but modified heteropoly acids were used. Metal exchanged dodecatungstophosphoric acid (DTP) was loaded on three different supports and its effect on acylation was evaluated. Thus, chromium exchanged DTP was supported on K-10, SiO2, and ZrO2 using the incipient wetness impregnation method. 20% w/w Cr0.66-DTP/K-10 having the best activity for the acylation of furan with acetic anhydride was chosen for full characterization and reaction kinetics. Under optimized condition, the catalyst to furan ratio was 9.6%, significantly less as per prior art, which gave 88% conversion with 100% selectivity. The prepared catalysts were characterized by sophisticated techniques, namely, XRD, FT-IR, SEM, NH3-TPD, TGA, and BET. The Eley-Rideal mechanism was found to fit the kinetic data. The activation energy was found to be 18.03 kcal/mol. The reaction is green and clean as no chlorinated chemicals, reagents, and catalysts were used.

Supported Co–Mo nitride catalysts have been synthesized by incipient-wetness impregnation method and temperature-programmed reaction in N2-H2 mixed gases. The effect of support types, namely carbon nanotubes(CNTs), active carbon(AC), 5A zeolite and Al2O3 on the properties of the prepared catalysts for ammonia decomposition has been investigated by XRD, H2–TPR and SEM techniques. The results showed that CNTs was the optimum support for Co–Mo nitride catalyst. At 550 , NH3 conversions over CoMoNx/AC, CoMoNx/Al2O3 and CoMoNx/5A Zeolite catalysts were only 14.7%, 65.4% and 68.7%, respectively, while NH3 conversion over CoMoNx/CNTs catalyst was up to 84.4%. XRD and H2–TPR results indicated that the active species consist of CoMoO4, MoO3, γ-Mo2N and Co3Mo3N crystallites, which can be reduced at elevated temperatures at H2 atmosphere. The SEM characterization demonstrated that Co-Mo nitrides particles disperse uniformly on the CNTs.

Among the zeolitic catalysts for the ethylene-to-propylene (ETP) reaction, the SSZ-13 zeolite shows the highest catalytic activity based on both its suitable pore architecture and tunable acidity. In this study, in order to improve the propylene selectivity further, the surface of the SSZ-13 zeolite was modified with various amounts of tungsten oxide ranging from 1 wt% to 15 wt% via a simple incipient wetness impregnation method. The prepared catalysts were characterized with several analysis techniques, specifically, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Raman spectroscopy, temperature-programmed reduction of hydrogen (H2-TPR), temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (NH3-TPD), inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), and N2 sorption, and their catalytic activities were investigated in a fixed-bed reactor system. The tungsten oxide-modified SSZ-13 catalysts demonstrated significantly improved propylene selectivity and yield compared to the parent H-SSZ-13 catalyst. For the tungsten oxide loading, 10 wt% loading showed the highest propylene yield of 64.9 wt%, which was 6.5 wt% higher than the pristine H-SSZ-13 catalyst. This can be related to not only the milder and decreased strong acid sites but also the diffusion restriction of bulky byproducts, as supported by scanning transmission electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (STEM-EDS) observation.

We have reported the effect of support pretreatment with ammonia on Pd/SiO2 catalyst in this study. SiO2 was pretreated with ammonia water to increase the Pd dispersion before the preparation of Pd/SiO2 catalysts. The effect of support pretreatment with ammonia on Pd/SiO2 catalyst was investigated by XRD, FT-IR, N2-adsorption and FE-TEM. The Pd supported on pretreated SiO2 were characterized by XRD, CO-chemisorption and FE-TEM. The pretreatment of SiO2 with ammonia water lead to decrease of silanol groups (Si-OH) up to temperature 200 °C. This decline of silanol groups on the SiO2 affects highly dispersed Pd/SiO2 as 6.52 %. The result showed that the decrease of silanol group on the SiO2 was favorable for the Pd dispersion. It is reason that absence of the silanol groups contribute to the high metal reducibility.

ABSTRACTPorous CoO/Mn2O3 Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) catalysts have been studied in CO hydrogenation. These CoO/Mn2O3 catalysts have been synthesized by incipient wetness impregnation method. These mesoporous catalysts have pore diameters of 2-25 nm and a surface area of 9.0 m2/g. The gas and liquid products have been analyzed by an online gas chromatograph. The solid products were characterized by gas chromatograph-mass spectroscopy. These microsize cobalt catalysts exhibit good activity with 72.1% CO conversion and they are very stable in a 48 h stream test at 280ºC. The selectivity to paraffins is above 95%. Few wax products were synthesized with a yield of less than 2%. The size effects of the cobalt catalysts have been studied by scanning electron microscopy.

A Co3O4 enhanced La0.8Sr0.2Co0.5Fe0.5O3 - δ (LSCF) electrode is developed for use in air electrodes with proton conducting solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). The incipient wetness impregnation method enables Co3O4 nanoparticles on the LSCF surface without altering the bulk porosity of the LSCF electrode. The polarization resistance of LSCF electrodes is significantly reduced by Co3O4 doping, and both charge transfer and diffusion/conversion resistances were positively affected. The highest reduction in charge transfer resistance is obtained at 700 °C, which is increased from 21%to 32%through reduction of po 2. Conversely, the highest reduction in diffusion/conversion resistance is achieved at 550 °C. By increasing po 2, the reduction is increased from 57%to 66%and its activation energy is reduced up to 33 %compared to pure LSCF. The lowest total area specific resistances obtained under air are 1.45 Ω·cm2, 2.95 Ω·cm2, 6.75 Ω·cm2 and 16.45 Ω·cm2 at 700 °C, 650 °C, 600 °C and 550 °C, respectively.

Promoters and their loading amount have crucial roles in cobalt Fischer – Tropsch catalysts. In this regard, the effects of vanadium oxide (V2O5) as a proposed promoter for Co catalyst supported on TiO2 have been investigated. Three catalysts with 0, 1, and 3 wt.% of V2O5 promoter loading are prepared by the incipient wetness impregnation method, and characterized by the BET surface area analyzer, XRD, H2-TPR, and TEM techniques. The fixed-bed reactor was employed for their evaluations. It was found that the catalyst containing 1 wt.% V2O5 has the best performance among the evaluated catalysts, demonstrating remarkable selectivity: 92 % C5+ and 5.7 % CH4, together with preserving the amount of CO conversion compared to the unpromoted catalyst. Furthermore, it is reported that the excess addition of V2O5 promoter (> 1 wt.%) in the introduced catalyst leads to the detrimental effect on the CO conversion and C5+ selectivity, mainly owing to diminished active sites by V2O5 loading.

A new system for the controlled release of rose perfume is presented. Mesoporous SBA-15 and KIT-6 materials as controlled-release agent are synthesized via hydrothermal method. Rose perfume was introduced into the pores of SBA-15 and KIT-6 via the incipient wetness impregnation method. This silica reservoir maintained a slow release of rose perfume over more than 10h. Rose perfume release was controlled by configurational diffusion in the SBA-15 and KIT-6 pores having free diameters of less than 12 nm. The release of rose perfume was tuned by adapting pore diameter and temperature. By fitting the release data, the results show that the release actions of rose perfume in SBA-15 and KIT-6 are consistent with Korsmeyer-Peppas model and First-order’model respectively.

Biofuel is one of alternative energy that is being developed today to solve the problem of limited fossil fuel as an energy source. The goal of this study is to produce biofuel from kapuk (Ceiba pentandra) seed oil (KSO) through catalytic hydrocracking process using NiMo/HZSM-5 catalyst. NiMo/HZSM-5 catalyst was obtained by impregnation of nickel and molybdenum as metallic precursors on HZSM-5 catalyst as support using incipient wetness impregnation method. It was found that the surface area of the catalyst was 222.1350 m2/g, the pore diameter was 3.0148 nm and the pore volume was 0.1674 cm3/g. The diffraction peaks of nickel oxide phase and the metallic phase of nickel were observed at 2θ of 62.5102° and 51.7283°. Molybdenum oxide phases were observed at 2θ of 53.5674° and 60.4682°. The catalytic hydrocracking process was performed using slurry pressure batch reactor at the temperature of 350°C for 2 h. The obtained liquid product was analyzed using GC-MS in order to determine the organic content. It has been found that the highest compounds were the palmitic acid with 23.14 area%. Besides, the hydrocarbon composition consisted of 33.93 area% (i.e. 4.34 area% cycloparaffins, 16.02 area% n-paraffins, 12.26 area% olefins, and 1.30 area% of aromatics) and 58.73 area% of carboxylic acid. Thus, it can be concluded that NiMo/HZSM-5 catalyst can convert KSO into biofuel through catalytic hydrocracking process at the temperature of 350°C for 2 h.
