Precursor solutions were obtained by citrate precursor method. Films were porous and the average particle size was 20 nm determined by FEG-SEM analysis. The photocatalytic activities of these films were studied using Rhodamine B as a target compound in a fixed bed reactor developed in our laboratory and UV lamp. It was observed that the addition of copper to TiO2 increased significantly its photocatalytic activity during the oxidation of Rhodamine B. The degradation exceeded 90% within 48 hours of irradiation compared to 38% when pure TiO2 was used. Moreover, there was a reduction in the particles band gap energy when compared to that of pure TiO2. These results indicate that the TiO2/CuO films are promising catalysts for the development of fixed bed reactors to be used to treat effluents containing azo dyes.展开更多

Using catalyzers is a common way to rising fuel burning rate. Cu-Chromite catalyzer used in solid fuels, as burning rate catalyzer in thermal decomposition of Ammonium Perchlorate and results were satisfying. This catalyzer is produced by several methods such as: ceramic, coprecipitating, sol-gel, vacuum depositioning, but this paper explains producing catalyzer by Citrate sol-gel. Thermal analysis is used for studying process also SEM, XRD, TEM, FTIR tests used for determination of particle sizes.展开更多

Utilizing oily CRM sludge as a source of iron, strontium hexaferrite(SrFe_(12)O_(19)) powders were prepared by multi-step processes involving acid leaching, chemical conversion treatment, and synthesis by a citrate precursor. The influences of citric acid dosage and the pH of the sol system on the formation, crystallite size, and magnetic properties of the obtained SrFe_(12)O_(19) powders were investigated. High saturation magnetization(74.8 mA·m^2·g^(–1)) and intrinsic coercivities(614.46 mT) were achieved for pH 7.0 of the sol system, for which the molar ratio of citric acid dosage to the total dosage of Fe^(3+) and Sr^(2+) was 1.5. This study presents a new approach to utilizing oily CRM sludge, and even refractory iron-containing solid waste.展开更多

Initial powders were calcined at different temperatures under different atmosphere （air, H2（4 vol.%）/Ar）, and the effects of the preparation process on the structure and the morphology of the powders were investigated by thermal analysis （TG/DSC）, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and surface area analysis. The electric conductiv-ity of the materials was measured by electrochemical work station using wafers prepared by dry pressing. It was found that the formation of perovskite structure was related to the content of Sc and combustion improver （NH4NO3）, pH value, calcining temperature and atmosphere. A single perovskite phase of Sr2Fe1-xScxMoO6-δ could be formed after 3 h calcining in reducing atmosphere of H2 （4 vol.%）/Ar at 1100 oC. The electrical property indicated that, this material had a potential to be used in medium/high temperature solid oxide fuel cells or electrolysis cells.展开更多

The catalysts were characterized by the Xray diffraction(XRD), H2-temperature programmed reduction(H2-TPR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR), etc. The catalytic activity for o-xylene was investigated. The catalytic degradation pathway and mechanism of o-xylene were inferred. The results show that Ce O_(2)is mainly present on the surface of all catalysts. The surface area of Ce_(2)Co1Cu1is up to 77.2 m^(2)/g, and the average pore size is 10.62 nm. It exhibits redox and sufficient Ce^(4+)and Ce^(^(3+)), and reactive oxygen species, and has maximum O-H and C=O in the five catalyst samples. The catalytic activity of Ce2Co1Cu1is the best at low temperature, with the T50and T90values of 235 and 258°C at a space velocity of 32000 h-1, respectively. The o-xylene is oxidized to o-methyl benzaldehyde, and then further oxidized to o-methylbenzoic acid, and finally CO_(2)and H2O are formed.展开更多
