The principal objective of this thesis is the development of a palladium catalyst supported on woven fabrics of activated carbon fibers (ACF) for the reactions of hydrogenations in liquid phase and the design of multiphase reactors using the characteristic ...
Metal nickel and copper grids are shown to be suitable supports for structured combustion catalysts. The increase of sp. surface area (SSA) of metal grids was achieved due to the porous outer layer with the structure of Raney metal developed on the wire su ...
The low-pressure cold microwave (MW) plasma is shown as an efficient method to increase acidity of the ACF within less than 1 min treatment without affecting the fiber morphol. and strength. The ion-exchange capacity was 1.6 times higher compared to the no ...
5-amino-6-methyl-2-benzimidazolone (AMBI), used in the manufacture of dyes, was characterised as a biorecalcitrant compound by means of different biodegradability tests. In order to enhance the biodegradability of this important pollutant, the application ...
The chemical and electrochemical promotion of highly dispersed nanofilm Rh catalysts (dispersion: about 10 %, film thickness: 40 nm) has been investigated for the first time. To this end Rh metal was sputter-deposited, either on a purely ionic conductor (8 ...
N-[2-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl]pyrrole was found to be amenable to selective a-metalation. Trapping with a variety of electrophilic reagents afforded the expected products with moderate to high yields. Derivs. formed by treatment of the organometallic intermed ...
Some Na compds. are selective catalysts for dehydrogenation of MeOH to HCHO, stable under high temps., and not reduced by H which is formed. They undergo some deactivation due to coking, but burning the coke easily returns the catalyst to its initial activ ...
Gold nanoparticles were supported on activated carbon fibers (ACF) using the aq. soln. of [Au(en)2]Cl3 via ion-exchange with surface hydroxyl groups followed by redn. in H2. The obtained catalysts were tested in CO oxidn. at room temp. Surface phenolic gro ...
The catalytic activity of IrO2 catalyst used as an electrode on a YSZ solid electrolyte cell for the gas phase combustion of ethylene can be increased by electrochem. pre-treatment. Thus, the polarization of the IrO2 electrode for 90 min at 300 mA, relativ ...
The electro-oxidn. of 1,4-benzoquinone in water soln. was investigated. The benzoquinone concn., intermediate products, dissolved org. C (DOC), COD, and toxicity of the oxidized soln. was monitored during oxidn. with Ti/IrO2 and Ti/SnO2 anodes (in the foll ...
