This work describes the platinum-containingcordieritenanocompositematerials were synthesized by incipient wetness impregnation process with aqueous solutions of H2PtCl6, Pd(NO3)3and Rh(NO3)3that were coated on cordierite ceramic honeycomb substances followed by calcinations temperature ranging from 973 to 1273 K. The nanocomposite materials were characterized by STEM, with a particle size around nanoscale particle sizes (~100 nm) with high dispersion phenomena. Further, cell cytotoxicity and the percentage cell survival was determined by using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5(3-carboxymethoxyphenol)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazoli um (MTS) assay on human fetal lung tissue cell (MRC-5). The experimental results show that the platrinum-containingcordieritenanocompositematerials only minor cause cytotoxicity effect in cultured human cells.

Since the growing interest in the manufacture and environmental applications of nanocomposites consisting of CuO and TiO2nanoparticles (NPs), related toxicological effect and interaction with cellular structures for these newly developed materials are still unknown. Recent literature reveals that nanosized CuO and TiO2particles have cytotoxicity risks and ability to cause oxidative stress on health. This work considers the CuO doped TiO2nanocomposite particles were synthesized via a coprecipitation method with aqueous solutions as precursors of copper nitrateand titanium dioxide. Moreover, the nanocomposite particles were characterized using TGA-DTA, UV-Vis and TEM measurements. The calcination temperature was selected at 873 K. The nanocomposite particles were characterized by TEM, as the primary particles, aggregates ranged from 30 to 100 nm and have a good dispersion character. Cell cytotoxicity assessment and the percentage cell survival was determined by using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5(3-carboxymethoxyphenol)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazoli um (MTS) assay on human fetal lung tissue cell (MRC-5). The experimental results show that the CuO doped TiO2nanocomposite particles cause potential cytotoxicity effect in cultured human cells.

The preparation of a coating procedure was studied, from the washcoating with γ-alumina to the deposition of palladium by excess solvent or incipient wetness impregnation. The powder and the washcoat layers were studied by different characterisation techniques such as SEM, BET surface area, and XRD. Vibration-resistance and heat-resistance were also evaluated. It was shown that the alumina layer is quite well deposited on the channel walls (SEM images). However, a detachment of the washcoat layer was observed after ultrasound treatment. It was proved that the monolith Pd impregnation method by incipient wetness impregnation is more efficient. The presence of palladium was confirmed using HRTEM, the palladium was present under the Pd (II) oxidation state, and the size of PdO particles varies between 2.5 and 3.1 nm. The catalytic properties of the monolith catalyst were carried out using temperature programmed surface reaction (TPSR). The efficiency of the procedure of the monolith catalyst preparation was confirmed by comparing the activity of the prepared catalyst with the one of a model catalyst.

The effect of treatment with different inorganic acids (HNO3, CH3COOH, and H3PO4) on the activity of CuO/γ-Al2O3 nanostructured catalysts selective catalytic reduction of NO by hydrocarbons (HC-SCR) using CH4as a reducing agent in a tubular fixed-bed reactor (TFBR) at temperatures from 623-1023 K in the presence of oxygen was studied. A CuO/γ-Al2O3 nanostructured catalyst was prepared by incipient wetness impregnation approach of copper nitrateand γ-alumina support. The catalysts were characterized using AEM and XRD. The experimental results show that the support γ-alumina with a 6 N HNO3solution at the calcinations temperature of 873 K obvious promoting effects on the higher activity due to greater acidity of the transforming NO reaction over a CuO/γ-Al2O3nanostructured catalyst, because the acidic pretreatment provides the acidic sites for the catalyst surface and improved the dispersion of copper species and the reactivity over the catalyst reaction system with NO-CH4-O2. Further, cell cytotoxicity and the percentage cell survival was determined by using MTS assay on human fetal lung tissue cell (MRC-5). The experimental results show that the nanoscale CuO/γ-Al2O3catalyst only minor cause cytotoxicity effect in cultured human cells.

This present study was aimed to investigate the hydrocracking of coconut oil using Ni-Fe/HZSM-5 catalyst in a batch reactor at three reaction temperatures (350, 375, and 400 °C). The Ni-Fe/HZSM-5 catalyst was prepared by using incipient wetness impregnation. The Ni-Fe/HZSM-5 catalyst was characterized using XRD, BET, and SEM-EDX. From XRD results, the loading of Ni and Fe did not change the crystalline structure of HZSM-5 catalyst. The surface area of HZSM-5 was 425 m2/g and decreased after the addition of metals (Ni and Fe) into HZSM-5 support. These changes implied that Ni and Fe particles were successfully dispersed on the HZSM-5 surface and incorporated into HZSM-5 pore. The product of hydrocarbon biofuel was analyzed using GC-MS. The GC-MS results of hydrocarbon biofuel showed the highest compounds for n-paraffin and yield for gasoil was 39.24 and 18.4% at a temperature of 400 °C, respectively. The reaction temperature affected the yield and the composition of hydrocarbon biofuel. At this reaction temperature condition, decarboxylation and decarbonylation were favored; lead to the formation of n-alkanes with an odd number of carbon atoms chain length.
