Lignin-derived bio-oil required upgrades to reduce its oxygen functionalities to produce high
quality liquid fuel that is comparable to those of petroleum source. Hydrodeoxygenation is a …

1. INTRODUCTION Heterogeneous catalysis, whereby a gas-or liquid-phase reaction is
performed over a solid catalyst, is at the heart of the modern energy and chemical industries …

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) have the potential to be one of the cleanest and most efficient
energy technologies for direct conversion of chemical fuels to electricity. Economically …

In 2006, Dixon et al. published the comprehensive review article entitled “Packed tubular
reactor modeling and catalyst design using computational fluid dynamics.” More than one …

Abstract The Fischer‐Tropsch synthesis is at the heart of the Biomass‐to‐Liquids (BTL)
process. Feasibility studies published in open literature typically consider cobalt‐based …

Adsorbents for CO2 captured with nano silica as support were synthesized by impregnating
polyethyleneimine (PEI) into nano silica. For impregnation of PEI into nano silica, the 2–40 …

Heat transfer in particulate materials affects a wide variety of applications ranging from multi-
phase reactors to kilns and calciners. In catalyst manufacturing, heat transfer through …

The proximity of nanoparticles may affect the performance, in particular the stability, of
supported metal catalysts. Short interparticle distances often arise during catalyst …

Porous materials are ubiquitous and exhibit properties suitable for depositing therapeutic
compounds. Drug loading in porous materials can protect the drug, control its release rate …

Homogeneous deposition-precipitation on either a silica or carbon nanofiber (CNF) support
of cobalt from basic solution using ammonia evaporation was studied and compared with …
