Oxide catalyst for the combustion of organic compounds in industrial waste gases

An oxide catalyst for combustion of organic compounds in exhaust gases from plastics plants has been developed. As the active catalyst phase, cupric cobaltate is supported on -Al₂O₃ carrier. Its catalytic activity in the test reaction of propylene oxidation was compared with that of the platinum catalyst used so far. The results show that the new catalyst can replace platinum in the above process.

X-ray spectral investigation by synchrotron radiation of supported Re/SiO2 and (Re+Pt)/SiO2 catalysts prepared via triethoxyrhenium

Using synchrotron radiation L_III absorption spectra of rhenium in Re/SiO₂ and (Re+Pt)/SiO₂ catalysts prepared via triethoxyrhenium have been studied. The conclusion has been drawn that reduced catalysts contain lowvalent rhenium ions and their composition is more uniform than that of the previously examined catalysts Re/Al₂O₃ and (Re+Pt)/Al₂O₃ prepared by a conventional impregnation technique.

Partial kinetic models in the H2?O2 system

Using the concepts of maximum mechanism and non-equilibrium free energy, some partial kinetic models of hydrogen oxidation have been found by means of solving a direct kinetic problem. It is shown that the basic difference in the kinetic models of ignition is the initial period of the process (induction period) while the mechanism of the well-developed process slightly depends on the initial conditions and remains mainly the same for the parameters under study.

Study of the thermal decomposition processes of clathrate compounds

The decompositions of the clathrate compounds [M(NCS)₂(4-MePy)₄]·nG (whereM=Mn, Co, Ni or Cd;G=4-methylpyridine (4-MePy), benzene or xylenes) were studied on a Q-derivatograph under quasi-equilibrium conditions and with linear heating. These clathrates can be divided into two groups, in which the loss of guest is either (I) accompanied by destruction of the host complex, or (II) occurs before decomposition of the host complex. Kinetic parameters were obtained.

Role of rhenium in bimetallic reforming catalysts

The influence of rhenium on the behavior of a Pt/Al₂O₃ catalyst was studied in n-hexane reaction by means of dilution of the catalyst bed with Re/Al₂O₃. Parallel to activity, selectivity and ageing data obtained in slug pulse and continuous flow reactors, the amount of the surface carbon formed during the reaction was determined and its reactivity in hydrogen atmosphere was also studied. It is suggested that in the presence of rhenium due to the increase in the amount of hydrogen available for hydrogen consuming reactions including hydrodepolymerization of the carbonaceous surface overlayer, the routes of ageing processes are changed, resulting in lower carbon content on the catalyst and less pronounced catalyst deactivation.

Platinum-palladium catalysts in hydrogenation of methylbenzenes

Hydrogenation of benzene, toluene, o,m and p-xylene over Pt, Pd and Pt–Pd/Al₂O₃ catalysts has been studied. Experimental data show that when Pd is added to Pt catalysts, a decrease in activity and changes in selectivity occur. This is explained by the formation of electron-deficient and electrorich metallic species.

KBr₃ oxidation of xylose, in presence of H₂SO₄, follows first order kinetics in [KBrO₃] and [xylose], and second order in [H₂SO₄]. The acid-catalyzed reaction gives aldonic acid as product.

Esterification in solution. The reaction of methacrylic acid with glycols

Azeotropic methacrylation of ethylene glycols in solution in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid can be described by two irreversible consecutive-competitive second order reactions with a rate constant ratio of to 2. The main reaction may be complicated by esterification of p-toluenesulfonic acid. Under certain conditions this side reaction may become predominant. A possible reason of this phenomenon is suggested.

Studies on thermal stability and knot formation in the TG curves of Co(III) model complexes

TG studies of vitamin B₁₂ coenzyme model complexes, BrCo(diacetylmonoximeiminatodiacetylmonoximatoiminobenzene-1,6)L have been carried out with different heating rates and sample sizes. The trans ligand, L, is bromine, imidazole, methylimidazole, pyridine or triphenylphosphine. The decompositions of the complexes (except for the triphenylphosphine complex) are associated with the formation of a knot at the point of completion of the inflection of the TG curve at a heating rate of 20 deg/min; such a phenomenon is not observed for rates of 10 and 5 deg/min. The formation of a knot with increase in weight and decrease in temperature is attributed to the transition from high-energy six-coordinate Co(III) species to low-energy five-coordinate Co (II) species. The triphenylphosphine complex is found to deviate from these characteristics of decomposition.

Zusammenfassung TG-Untersuchungen von Vitamin-B₁₂-Coenzymkomplexen — BrCo (Diacetylmonoxim-iminato-diacetylmonoximato-iminobenzol-1,6)L wurden bei verschiedenen Aufheizgeschwindigkeiten und mit unterschiedlichen Probenmengen ausgeführt. Der trans-Ligand L ist mit Brom, Imidazol, Methylimidazol, Pyridin bzw. Triphenylphosphin modifiziert. Mit Ausnahme des Triphenylphosphinkomplexes geht die Zersetzung der Komplexe bei einer Aufheizgeschwindigkeit von 20 °/min mit der Ausbildung einer Schleife an der Stelle des TG Kurve einher, an der die Inflektion beendet ist. Solch ein Effekt ist nicht bei Aufheizgeschwindigkeiten von 10 und 5 °/min zu beobachten. Das eten einer Schleife mit zunehmenden Gewicht und abnehmender Temperatur ist der Umwandlung von 6-fach koordinierten Co(III)-Species hoher Energie in 5-fach koordinierte Co (II) -Species niedriger Energie zuzuschreiben. Der Triphenylphosphinkomplex weicht von dieser Zersetzungscharakteristik ab.

Veränderung des thermischen Verhaltens von Kaolinit durch mechanische Aktivierung

Zusammenfassung Es ist bekannt, daß die Eigenschaften von Kaolinit nicht nur durch eine Kalzinierung oberhalb 600 °C, sondern auch durch intensive mechanische Beanspruchung stark verändert werden können. Die durch eine Intensivmahlung erzeugte Reaktivitätssteigerung kann durch eine Verbesserung der Säurelösbarkeit des Al₂O₃-Anteiles, das veränderte thermische Verhalten und strukturelle Veränderungen gekennzeichnet werden. In der vorliegenden Arbeit geht es um einen Beitrag zur methodischen Aufklärung der strukturellen und thermischen Veränderungen von Kaolinit, insbesondere durch Einsatz thermoanalytischer und IR-spektroskopischer Methoden. Als intensives Zerkleinerungsaggregat wurde eine Scheibenschwingmühle eingesetzt.

It is already known that the properties of kaolinite can be changed substantially not only by calcination above 600° but also by intensive mechanical stress.A reactivity increase induced by intensive grinding can be characterized by an increase of acid solubility of the Al₂O₃ content, by changed thermal behaviour and by structural changes. The paper presented contributes to the methodic explanation of structural and thermal changes of kaolinite, especially by the use of thermoanalytical and IR spectroscopic methods. The intensive grinding was performed in a vibration-disc mill.

Résumé Il est déjà connu que les propriétés de la kaolinite peuvent être profondément modifiées non seulement par calcination au-dessus de 600 °C, mais aussi par contrainte mécanique intense.Une augmentation de la réactivité induite par broyage intense peut être caractérisée par une augmentation de la teneur en Al₂O₃ déterminée par solubilité en milieu acide, par le changement du comportement thermique et par des modifications structurales. Le présent article contribue à l'explication méthodique des changements structuraux et thermiques de la kaolinite, spécialement à l'aide des méthodes d'analyse thermique et de spectroscopie infrarouge. Le broyage intense a été effectué dans un broyeur à disques vibrants.
