Thiosulfate Concentration

Some sedimentary minerals have attractive contents of gold and silver, like a sedimentary exhalative ore available in the eastern of Hidalgo in Mexico. The gold and silver contained represent an interesting opportunity for processing by non-toxic and aggressive leaching reagents like thiosulfate. The preliminary kinetic study indicated that the leaching process was poorly affected by temperature and thiosulfate concentration. The reaction order was −0.61 for Ag, considering a thiosulfate concentration between 200–500 mol·m−3, while, for Au, it was −0.09 for a concentration range between 32–320 mol·m–3. By varying the pH 7–10, it was found that the reaction order was n = 5.03 for Ag, while, for Au, the value was n = 0.94, considering pH 9.5–11. The activation energy obtained during the silver leaching process was 3.15 kJ·mol−1 (298–328 K), which was indicative of a diffusive control of the process. On the other hand, during gold leaching, the activation energy obtained was of 36.44 kJ·mol−1, which was indicative that this process was mixed controlled process, first at low temperatures by diffusive control (298–313 K) and then by chemical control (318–323 K).

Shrinking Core

The jarosite sample used is an argentojarosite-hydroniumjarosite solid solution of approximate formula (Ag0.78H3O0.22) Fe3(SO4)2 (OH)6. The decomposition process in NaOH/Ca(OH)2 media and the cyanidation process in Ca(OH)2 media were studied for the induction period and progressive conversion period respectively, and the reaction order and activation energy were determined for each case. The results are consistent with the spherical particle shrinking core model and chemical control under the experimental conditions imposed; six partial models and three global models have been tested for both processes in their basic behaviour.

Isoconversional Kinetic Analysis

This paper presents a kinetic study of pyrolysis of sugarcane bagasse from dynamic thermogravimetric experiments (TG). The methods of Kissinger, Ozawa, Starink, Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose and Friedman were used to estimate the activation energy. These methods consider the temperature shifts with increase of heating rate for a given conversion in dynamic TG tests. The activation energy values obtained by the isoconversional methods were in a range 182.8 192.4 kJ·mol-1, values very close to the other biomasses presented by literature.

Catalyst Selection

The activity of ruthenium, palladium, and nickel catalysts for the hydrogenation of 1,2-dihydroacenaphthylene in cyclohexane solution was studied at temperatures up to 180 °C and pressures up to 8 MPa. The GC-MS technique was used to identify most of the perhydroacenaphthylene stereoisomers, whose fractions in the product were found dependent on the nature of the active component of the catalyst. The hydrogenation was fastest on the palladium catalyst (3% Pd/C). The nickel catalyst Ni-NiO/Al2O3, which is sufficiently active also after repeated use, can be recommended for practical application. The activation energy of 1,2-dihydroacenaphthylene hydrogenation using this catalyst is 17 kJ/mol, the reaction order with respect to hydrogen is unity.

Catalytic Capacity

This study focuses on evaluating the volumetric hydrogen content in the gaseous mixture released from the steam catalytic gasification of n-C7 asphaltenes and resins II at low temperatures (<230 °C). For this purpose, four nanocatalysts were selected: CeO2, CeO2 functionalized with Ni-Pd, Fe-Pd, and Co-Pd. The catalytic capacity was measured by non-isothermal (from 100 to 600 °C) and isothermal (220 °C) thermogravimetric analyses. The samples show the main decomposition peak between 200 and 230 °C for bi-elemental nanocatalysts and 300 °C for the CeO2 support, leading to reductions up to 50% in comparison with the samples in the absence of nanoparticles. At 220 °C, the conversion of both fractions increases in the order CeO2 < Fe-Pd < Co-Pd < Ni-Pd. Hydrogen release was quantified for the isothermal tests. The hydrogen production agrees with each material’s catalytic activity for decomposing both fractions at the evaluated conditions. CeNi1Pd1 showed the highest performance among the other three samples and led to the highest hydrogen production in the effluent gas with values of ~44 vol%. When the samples were heated at higher temperatures (i.e., 230 °C), H2 production increased up to 55 vol% during catalyzed n-C7 asphaltene and resin conversion, indicating an increase of up to 70% in comparison with the non-catalyzed systems at the same temperature conditions.

Adsorbent Surface

Modified pomegranate peel (MPGP) and formaldehyde modified pomegranate peel (FMPGP) were prepared and used as adsorbent for removal of Cr(VI) ions from aqueous solution using batch process. The temperature variation study of adsorption on both adsorbents revealed that the adsorption process is endothermic, from the positive values of ∆H˚. These values lie in the range of physisorption. The negative values of ∆G˚ show the adsorption is favorable and spontaneous. On the other hand, these negative values increases with increase in temperature on both adsorbents, which indicate that the adsorption is preferable at higher temperatures. ∆S˚ values showed that the process is accompanied by increase in disorder and randomness at the solid solution interface due to the reorientation of water molecules and Cr(VI) ions around the adsorbent surface. The endothermic nature of the adsorption was also confirmed from the positive values of activation energy, Ea, the low values of Ea confirm the physisorption mechanism of adsorption. The sticking probability, S*, of Cr(VI) ion on surface of both adsorbents showed that the adsorption is preferable due to low values of S*(0< S*< 1 ), but S*values are lower for FMPGP indicating that the adsorption on FMPGP is more preferable .

AbstractDuring the MOS transistors fabrication process, the source-drain extension areas are directly in contact with the oxide liner of the spacers stack. In previous works [1, 2, 3] it has been established that boron can diffuse from the source-drain extensions into the spacer oxide liner during the subsequent annealing steps, and that the amount of boron loss depends on the hydrogen content in the oxide, because it enhances B diffusivity in SiO2.In order to characterize and quantify the above phenomena, we performed test experiments on full sheet samples, which mimic either BF2 source-drain extensions over arsenic pockets implants, or BF2 pockets under arsenic or phosphorus source-drain extensions implants. Following the corresponding implants, the wafers were covered with different spacer stacks (oxide + nitride) deposited either by LPCVD, or PECVD. After appropriate activation annealing steps, SIMS measurements were used to characterize the profiles of the various dopants, and the corresponding dose loss was evaluated for each species.Our experimental results clearly evidence that LPCVD or PECVD spacer stacks have no influence on the arsenic profiles. On the other hand, phosphorus and boron profiles are affected. For boron profiles, each spacer type has a different influence. It is also shown that boron out-diffuses not only from the B doped source-drain extension in direct contact with the oxide layer, but also from the "buried" B pockets lying under n-doped source drain extension areas. All these results are discussed in term of the possible relevant mechanism.

Thermogravimetric Method

Phytic acid is a natural compound widely used as depigmenting agent in galenic cosmetic emulsions. However, we have observed experimentally that phytic acid, when heated to 150 ºC for around one hour, shows evidence of thermal decomposition. Few studies investigating this substance alone with regard to its stability are available in the literature. This fact prompted the present study to characterize this species and its thermal behavior using thermal analysis (TG/DTG and DSC) and to associate the results of these techniques with those obtained by elemental analysis (EA) and absorption spectroscopy in the infrared region. The TG/DTG and DSC curves allowed evaluation of the thermal behavior of the sample of phytic acid and enabled use of the non-isothermal thermogravimetric method to study the kinetics of the three main mass-loss events: dehydration I, dehydration II and thermal decomposition. The combination of infrared absorption spectroscopy and elemental analysis techniques allowed evaluation of the intermediate products of the thermal decomposition of phytic acid. The infrared spectra of samples taken during the heating process revealed a reduction in the intensity of the absorption band related to O-H stretching as a result of the dehydration process. Furthermore, elemental analysis results showed an increase in the carbon content and a decrease in the hydrogen content at temperatures of 95, 150, 263 and 380 °C. Visually, darkening of the material was observed at 150 °C, indicating that the thermal decomposition of the material started at this temperature. At a temperature of 380 °C, thermal decomposition progressed, leading to a decrease in carbon and hydrogen. The results of thermogravimetry coupled with those of elemental analysis allow us to conclude that there was agreement between the percentages of phytic acid found in aqueous solution. The kinetic study by the non-isothermal thermogravimetric method showed that the dehydration process occurred in two stages. Dehydration step I promoted a process of vaporization of water (reaction order of zero), whereas dehydration step II showed an order of reaction equal to five. This change in reaction order was attributed to loss of chemically bonded water molecules of phytic acid or to the presence of volatile substances. Finally, the thermal decomposition step revealed an order of reaction equal to one. It was not possible to perform the kinetic study for other stages of mass loss.
