Co2 Conversion Over Supported Coni Bimetallic And Conipd Trimetallic Catalyst Via Dry Reforming With Methane, Scott Bamonte
Co2 Conversion Over Supported Coni Bimetallic And Conipd Trimetallic Catalyst Via Dry Reforming With Methane, Scott Bamonte
Post & Beyond
Greenhouse gas emission is a problem for the earth, and is causing warming
of the climate, and acidification of the oceans. The primary objective of
this project is to develop novel cobalt based catalysts, to enhance catalytic
conversion of CO2 by methane into, value added chemicals and fuels. The
heterogeneous Co-based bimetallic and tri metallic catalysts were synthesized
via a wet incipient impregnation method to uniformly coat the metal
salts to the pre-treated support (TiO2, SiO2, and La-ZrO2). The catalyst was
dried in the oven at 80∞ C for two hours before subjected …

Sonoluminescence: Sound Into Light, Alexandra Lynn
Post & Beyond
Sonoluminesence is the conversion of sound into light. We were trying
to see whether the intervals between the light flashes that had been seen
would be affected by the temperature of the water . To determine this, we
essentially used an RLC circuit where a flask of degassed water with piezoelectric
transducers glued to either side acted as the capacitor. We used
the piezos to pump a sinusoidal wave through the water and at circuit and
acoustic resonance, small bubbles inserted into the water, stabilized in the
center of the flask, collapsed and emitted blue light. This experiment uses
the …

Sonoluminescence: Sound And Light, Alexandra Lynn
Undergraduate Honors College Theses 2016-
The purpose of this experiment was to observe single bubble sonoluminescence. Sonoluminescence is the conversion of sound waves into light and requires resonating a circuit with a flask filled with degassed water. The resonating flask should allow a bubble to balance in the centre of the flask, and in the right conditions should exhibit sonoluminescence and emit light. I used a resonating RLC circuit with piezoelectric transducers acting as capacitors. Whilst I ensured both the circuit and flask were at resonance, I did not observe sonoluminescence. This could be attributed to the low voltage produced by the circuit, or the …
