The role was studied, of bulk V2O5 in vanadia/titania catalysts in partial oxidn. of toluene. Two catalysts with 1.8 and 11.1% of V were studied, by in situ DRIFTS and transient-response methods. Bulk V2O5 was found by FT-Raman spectroscopy only in the 11. ...
First-principles total energy calculations are carried out to investigate the relative energetics of several neutral oxygen species in alpha-quartz and amorphous SiO2. We considered both atomic and molecular oxygen, as interstitial and network species. The ...
Using a density functional approach, we determine the relative stability of various oxygen species in alpha -quartz. We considered interstitial species in the form of atomic and molecular oxygen, as well as network species, such as peroxyl and ozonyl link- ...
The present study investigates the oxidation of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) by conventional ozonation and the advanced oxidation process (AOP) ozone/hydrogen peroxide under drinking water treatment conditions. The major degradation products identified w ...
As other monosaccharide mimics such as the azasugars and the carbasugars (with nitrogen and carbon atom, respectively, instead of oxygen atom in the ring) the thiosugars (with sulfur atom instead of oxygen atom in the ring) have gained importance in glycob ...
The influence of carbonate on the ozone/hydrogen peroxide process has been investigated. Carbonate radicals, which are formed from the reaction of bicarbonate/carbonate with OH radicals, act as a chain carrier for ozone decomposition due to their reaction ...
Free hydroxyl radicals (free . OH), singlet oxygen (O-1(2)), or . OH produced by DNA-copper-hydroperoxo complexes are possible DNA-damaging reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the reaction system containing copper, catechol, and DNA. para-Chlorobenzoic acid ( ...
Oxygen is a key substrate in animal cell metab. and its consumption is thus a parameter of great interest for bioprocess monitoring and control. A system for measuring it based on an oxygen balance on the liq. phase was developed. The use of a gas-permeabl ...
According to Khan et al. [Khan, A. U., Kovacic, D., Kolbanovskiy, A., Desai, M., Frenkel, K. & Geacintov, N. E. (2000) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 97, 2984-2989], peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)) decomposes after protonation to singlet oxygen ((1)Delta(g)O(2)) and s ...
A model structure of vitreous silica, for which the vibrational frequencies and eigenmodes were calculated from first principles, is used to investigate vibrational amplitudes. Calculated mean-square displacements for oxygen and silicon atoms are obtained ...
