The influence of operating parameters i.e. reaction time, catalyst dose, reaction temperature and oxidant amount on oxidation process was investigated. Results revealed that 99% DBT conversion was achieved at 60℃ and 150 min reaction time over Fe-Ni-Mo/Al2O3. Fe tremendously enhanced the ODS activity of Co or Ni based Mo/Al2O3 catalysts following the activity order：Fe-Ni-Mo/Al2O3 〉 Fe-Co-Mo/Al2O3 〉 Ni-Mo/Al2O3 〉 Co-Mo/Al2O3, while H2O2 exhibited higher oxidation activity than formic acid over all catalyst systems. Insight about the surface morphology and textural properties of fresh and spent catalysts were achieved using scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, energy dispersive X-ray （EDX） analysis, Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy （AAS） and BET surface area analysis, which helped in the interpretation of experimental data. The present study can be deemed as an effective approach on industrial level for ODS of fuel oils crediting to its high efficiency, low process/catalyst cost, safety and mild operating condition.展开更多

The relationship between the synergistic catalytic effects and the composition as well as amount of co-catalysts was investigated. Moreover, the influence of different reaction conditions was studied in details. A high p-cresol conversion （〉99%） and p-hydroxybenzaldehyde selectivity （83%） were obtained using only 1.125 × 10- 5 mol T（p-CH3O）PPFe111Cl-Co（OAc）2 used under mild, optimized reaction conditions. A possible mechanism for the reaction was also proposed. This work would be meaningful and instructive for the further researches and applications of co-catalyst system on oxidation of cresols and could give some enlightenment on the selectively catalytic oxidation of the side-chain alkyls of aromatics.展开更多

In order to reduce occupants＇ exposures to formaldehyde, a newly designed photocatalytic reactor was applied in a dynamic HVAC （heating, ventilation and air conditioning） system. The experiments were carried out for the removal of formaldehyde present in air at low parts per million （ppm） concentrations. The initial formaldehyde concentrations were set as 1.59 ppm and 0.27 ppm respectively, based on the formaldehyde levels in the polluted places. Experimental results show that the photocatalytic reactor is effective on formaldehyde photodegradation, causes a low pressure drop, and does not make the second pollution of ozone. The kinetic anaiysis indicates that the kinetics for oxidation processes can be fitted well by a pseudo-first-order kinetic model deduced from Langmuir - Hinshelwood （L-H） model.展开更多
