Supported CaO/MgO catalysts were used as the catalyst of transesterification rapeseed oil with methanol. The supported showed a higher activity than pure CaO and was easily separated from product mixture. results comparative experiments characterization, such XRD, CO2-TPD, BET, AAS, that is associated their alkalinity. preparation method this optimized, furthermore, reaction parameters investigated. With so obtained, conversion reached 92% at 64.5 °C. basic found to be contaminated by...
Biodiesel is manufactured by transesterification of animal fat or vegetable oil. The reactants (oil and methanol) the products (fatty acid methyl ester glycerol) are partially mutual soluble in reaction process. Inter-solubility components essential data for production design process operation. In this work, Jatropha curcas L. oil (oil) has been transesterified to give (FAME). inter-solubility FAME + methanol glycerol, methanol, glycerol range from 298.15 K 333.15 conducted. Methanol...
Photocatalytic processes are an environmentally friendly technology for treatment of persistent organic pollutants. However, the majority current photocatalysts cannot utilize sunlight sufficiently to realize fast decomposition In this research, a silver oxide nanoparticle aggregation with superb photocatalytic performance under artificial light source and was prepared characterized. The results showed that methyl orange (MO) decomposed completely in 120 s irradiation visible light,...
Ag<sub>2</sub>S has only rarely been investigated as a photocatalyst on its own, although it widely used an important component of composite photocatalysts.
Antiscaling technology is necessary in order to prevent the performance loss and blockage of heat exchangers. In this research, a superhydrophobic CuO nanowire layer was prepared utilized for antiscaling process CaCO3 on surface copper. Modified with 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane (FAS-17), water contact angle increased sharply from 4.5° ± 1° after anodization 154° 2°, since free energy decreased 74.8 mJ/m2 hydrophilic 0.2 surface. The scale inhibition nanowires confirmed...
Electrochemical methods are potentially an energy-saving way to capture CO2 from flue gas. Unlike the regeneration of amine through high-temperature thermal distillation in commercial absorption processes, solution is regenerated by electrolysis at a low temperature. In this work, tiron (disodium 4,5-dihydroxy-1,3-benzenedisulfonate, QH2) was employed as pH mediator because its redox reactions can change solution. Na2Q, which prepared QH2 and NaOH molar ratio 1:2, used alkalinity. Then,...
Amine-based CO2 postcombustion capture is a commercialized technology for recovery from flue gas, and the energy consumption concentrated in regenerative stage. The phase-change solvent system, monoethanolamine (MEA, absorbent) + A (SA, solvent) water (solvent), was investigated on performances of absorption desorption. CO2-rich can be continuously separated feeding flow regeneration tower; thereby, it significantly reduces regeneration. results show that with suitable composition easily...
Phase-change solvents exhibit the promising potential to reduce regeneration energy for CO2 capture. In this paper, 3-dimethylaminopropylamine (DMAPA) with intramolecular primary and tertiary amino groups was mixed solvent NHD water phase-change absorption of in model flue gas. The results show that homogeneous mixture changes into two phases after when NHD/H2O ranges from 9:1 5:5 90% is enriched lower phase only 23% total volume. loading reaches 1.06 mol CO2/mol amine, separation time...
1,8-Diazabicyclo[5.4.0]-undec-7-ene (DBU)-glycerol solution is employed as a promising CO2 absorbent. The regeneration of the CO2-loaded vital importance for its commercialization. It was investigated and compared with 30 wt % monoethanolamine (MEA). Variables affecting absorption desorption processes were studied, including solvent composition, reaction temperature, agitation. shows that capacity DBU-glycerol comparable MEA, ratio mixture can reach high 95% in 60 min, 363 K at 3:1 molar DBU...
