The objective of this study was to analyze the efficiency of silver(Ag)-doped carbon aerogels for the removal of bromide (Br-) and iodide (I-) from drinking waters. Textural characterization of Ag-doped aerogels showed that an increase in the Ag dose added ...
This paper presents the evaluation of different adsorbents for the improvement of the performances of a gas preconcentrator by targeting the adsorption of a large range of volatiles organics compounds (VOCs) The objectives of this work are to find the adeq ...
One possibility for the removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is catalytic oxidation. For the removal of VOCs in low concentration (≲ 3000 ppmv for propane) it is not possible to sustain the required oxidation temperature over the catalyst wit ...
The fusion bonding of neat polypropylene (PP) has been investigated under non-isothermal conditions with different initial adherend temperatures, and the results compared with results from bonds prepared under isothermal conditions with identical adherend ...
Novel TiO2-modified macroporous materials (Ti-MOSF, see figure) have been synthesized with high surface area, large pore volume, and functional surfaces that are rich in coordinatively unsaturated TiIV species, which can be applied in the specific extracti ...
This paper presents a feasibility study on the development of a gas preconcentrator based on micro-reactor technology on silicon. The objectives are to select a gas adsorbent material, to produce a silicon micro-reactor with an integrated heater, and final ...
The syntheses, crystal structures, and adsorption/desorption properties of two novel chiral three-dimensional cyano-bridged bimetallic assemblies, {[Cu(1R,2Rchxn)2]2[Ru(CN)6]·6H2O}∞ (1) and {[Cu(1R,2Rchxn)2]12[Ru(CN)6]6·26H2O}∞ (2) (where 1R,2Rchxn = trans ...
The main objectives of this work are 2-fold : The development of a novel type of composite material based on carbon nanofibers supported on sintered metal fibers filters (CNF/SMF) and to explore the use of this material as a catalytic support for a model r ...
Desorption of cadmium (Cd) from sand was studied by both batch and flow-through methods. Batch experiments were conducted at three pH values (5.5, 6.0 and 6.5). In each case, the amount of Cd desorbed was low compared with the quantity of Cd adsorbed previ ...
The addn. of inert particles of lighter d. and smaller diam. increases considerably the mass transfer coeff. in comparison to that of mono-component active particles at the same liq. velocity. This effect was applied to elimination of Cu ions by adsorption ...
