Synthesis of graphite/PbTiO3 composite as a catalyst in photodegradation and photoelectrodegradation process of methyl orange have been conducted. The purposes of this research are to study the effect of radiation time, composition of composite, voltage and pH of solution for methyl orange degradation. Photodegradation process of methyl orange was carried out for 5; 10; 15; 20; 25 and 30 min. Ratio of graphite : PbTiO3 (w/w) were varied at 1:3; 1:2; 1:1; 2:1 and 3:1. Meanwhile, the applied voltages were 7.5; 10 and 12.5 V and the photoelectrodegradation was conducted under pH condition of 3; 7; and 11, respectively. The result showed that optimum composition of graphite/PbTiO3 in the methyl orange photodegradation was obtained at 1:1 ratio for 30 min with degradation up to 90.43% ± 0.062. The degradation reaction follows first order reaction with a rate constant of 0.0688 min-1. The optimum voltage is 10 V, in which it reduced the methyl orange concentration up to 92.65% ± 0 with a rate constant 0.0941 min-1 for first order reaction. The optimum pH is pH = 11, that provide methyl orange reduction up to 95.28% ± 0.082.

An alternative method of determining exothermic reactor model parameters which include first order reaction rate constant is described in this paper. The method is based on known in reactor temperature development and is suitable for processes with changing quality of input substances. This method allows us to evaluate the reaction substances composition change and is also capable of the reaction rate constant (parameters of the Arrhenius equation) determination. Method can be used in exothermic batch or semi- batch reactors running processes based on the first order reaction. An example of such process is given here and the problem is shown on its mathematical model with the help of simulations.

The pyrolysis of phenylmercaptoacetic acid was investigated by the toluene-carrier technique over the temperature range 760–835 °K. The main products of the decomposition were phenyl mercaptan, carbon dioxide, acetic acid, phenyl methyl sulfide, carbon monoxide, and dibenzyl.The overall decomposition was a first-order reaction with respect to phenylmercaptoacetic acid and could be represented by the two parallel steps:[Formula: see text]Reaction [1] was shown to be a homogeneous first-order dissociation process, and its rate constant was represented by the expression[Formula: see text]The activation energy of this reaction, i.e. 58 kcal/mole, was identified with D(C6H5S—CH2COOH).

In this work the photo degradation of glibinclamide is studied by UV light and different concentrations using solvents (water and ethanol) and different times. The reaction kinetic is studied and found that the photo degradation reaction of glibinclamide is (first-order) reaction and the thermodynamic properties (ΔHo, ΔSo and ΔGo) for glibinclamide were calculated and it was found to be (endothermic and spontaneous reaction).

The electro-Fenton process has been shown to be very successful to remove dyes from water. However, the influence of other constituents in dyeing industry wastewater, such as Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS) surfactants, has not been investigated. In this study, the effect of SDS surfactant on the kinetics of Methyl Orange degradation undergoing Electro-Fenton process was investigated. Results show that Methyl Orange degradation rate decreased as SDS concentration (below Critical Micelle Concentration, CMC) increased, which was attributed to the consumption of hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) by surfactants. The kinetics modeling indicates the reaction was the first-order reaction to Methyl Orange even SDS existing. The pseudo first-order rate constants decreased as SDS concentration increased.

Kinetic of uncatalyzed oxidation of DL-Threonine has been studied by Ce (IV) in acidic medium has been investigatigated by spectrophotometer technique.  The rate of reaction determined at three different temperatures ranging from 298 K to 318 K at the interval of 10 K. The reaction has been found to be a first order reaction in presence or in absence of KCl, CTAB, and SDS. The rate constant, decreases with increasing the concentration of [HSO4-] and [H+] ion. The various thermodynamic parameters were calculated at 298 K, 308 K and 318 K. The proposed mechanism and results is discussed.

Cyclic voltammetry was used to examine the kinetics of degradation of ascorbic acid (AA) at different temperatures. It has been shown that the reduction of the concentration of AA in all temperatures follow the kinetics of the first order reaction. The rate constant of the oxidation reaction increases with temperature as follows: 5x10-5; 2x10-4; 1x10-3 and 3x10-3 min-1 at temperatures of 25?C, 35?C, 65?C and 90?C, respectively. The temperature dependence of the rate constant follows Arrhenius equation, and the value of activation energy of the reaction degradation is 48.2 kJ mol-1 . The effect of storage time at a temperature of 90 ?C on AA content in fresh juice of green peppers was investigated. It was shown that AA oxidation reaction in the juice is also the first order reaction, while the lower rate constant in relation to the pure AA (5x10-3 min-1) indicates the influence of other substances present in peppers.
