Deep desulfurization of fuels has attracted lot of attention from growing number of researchers due to more stringent regulations imposed on sulfur content. There is a great demand to comply the regulation in current technology (hydrodesulfurization) because it requires high pressure, high temperature and high hydrogen consumption. Furthermore, aromatic sulfur compounds are also inefficient to be removed in current technology. Ionic Liquids (ILs) as class of green solvent actually plays important role as a promising alternative for desulfurization of fuels. This study focuses on the selection of potential ILs for extraction of aromatic sulfur compound involving the effect of higher …
Ultimate Detectability Of Volatile Organic Compounds: How Much Further Can We Reduce Their Ambient Air Sample Volumes For Analysis?, Ki-Hyun Kim

To understand the ultimately lowest detection range of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air, application of a high sensitivity analytical system was investigated by coupling thermal desorption (TD) technique with gas chromatography (GC) and time of flight (TOF) mass spectrometry (MS). The performance of the TD-GC-TOF MS system was evaluated using liquid standards of 19 target VOCs prepared in the range of 35 pg to 2.79 ng per μL. Studies were carried out using both total ion chromatograms (TIC) and extracted ion chromatograms (EIC) mode. EIC mode was used for calibration to reduce background and to improve signal to noise. …

Nanocrystalline AMn2O4 (A = Co, Ni, Cu) manganite spinels were prepared by using the sol–gel auto combustion method under the same
synthesis conditions and their physico-chemical properties were studied by XRD, UV–vis DRS, SEM, BET and FTIR. Besides, the reducibility of
oxides was studied by temperature-programmed reduction (TPR). The relationship between the properties and activity of spinels in oxidation of 2-
propanol and toluene was investigated. Among all, nickel manganite exhibited the most promising activity, in which the completed conversion of 2-
propanol and toluene occurred at 250 and 350 8C, respectively. Higher activity of nickel manganite oxide was explained …

Ethylene and propylene, building blocks of the petrochemical industries, are mostly produced by steam cracking of hydrocarbons. In our recent work (Nabavi, Rangaiah, Niaei and Salari, Multiobjective Optimization of an Industrial LPG Thermal Cracker using a First Principles Model, Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 2009, 48, 9523-9533), operation of an industrial liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cracker was optimized for several sets of two and three objectives. In this work, optimization of an LPG cracker design is investigated for multiple objectives. The objectives considered are maximization of annual ethylene and propylene production, selectivity and run length, and minimization of severity and total …

Thermal cracking of hydrocarbons in the presence of steam is the most important process for the production of ethylene and propylene, which are the raw materials for many petrochemicals. In this work, multiobjective optimization (MOO) of an industrial LPG (liquefied petroleum gas containing mainly propane and butane) thermal cracker is studied using the elitist nondominated sorting genetic algorithm adapted with the jumping gene operator, NSGA-II-aJG. A first principles model based on free radical mechanism for LPG thermal cracking is employed for optimization. Several bi- and triobjective optimization problems are solved; these problems involved maximization of annual ethylene/propylene production, selectivity and …
