Thermal dry reforming of methane over La2O3 co-supported Ni/MgAl2O4 catalyst for hydrogen-rich syngas production

Research on Chemical Intermediates - The excess emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs) such as CO2 and CH4 is posing an acute threat to the environment, and efficient ways are being sought to utilize...     

Antifungal effects of secondary metabolites isolated from marine organisms collected from the Tunisian coast

Phallusides 1,2,3 (1), Fasciculatin (2), Acanthelline (3), Axisonitrile (4), Oroïdin (5) and the Novel bromopyrolimidazolic compound Axinellizine (6) were evaluated for their antifungal effects against several phytopatogenic fungi and were found to possess considerable activities. Insecticidal effect of only Acanthellin (3) against the major pest of stored products Tribolium confusum Duv has been carried out using direct contact application method showing a significant inhibitory effect of the test material on the T. confusum Duv larvae growth. Forty-five percent mortality of the adults was achieved 8 days after treatment.     

Partial oxidation of methane over biomass fly ash (BFA)-supported Ni/CaO catalyst for hydrogen-rich syngas production

Research on Chemical Intermediates - In this study, biomass fly ash (BFA)-supported Ni/CaO catalyst was synthesized, characterized and evaluated for partial oxidation of methane (POM) in a fixed...
