Kinetics And Mechanism Of Oxygen Delignification, Yun Ji May 2007

Kinetics And Mechanism Of Oxygen Delignification, Yun Ji

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Considerable research has been conducted into the kinetics and selectivity of the oxygen delignification process to overcome limitation in its use. However most studies were performed in a batch reactor whereby the hydroxide and dissolved oxygen concentrations are changing during the reaction time in an effort to simulate tower performance in pulp mills. This makes it difficult to determine the reaction order of the different reactants in the rate expressions. Also the lignin content and cellulose degradation of the pulp are only established at the end of the experiment when the sample is removed from the batch reactor. To overcome …


The Synthesis Of 2-(Chloromethyl)-6-Hydroxy-2h-Pyran-3 (6h)-One Via Achmatowicz Rearrangement, Zuhal Gerçek Jan 2007

The Synthesis Of 2-(Chloromethyl)-6-Hydroxy-2h-Pyran-3 (6h)-One Via Achmatowicz Rearrangement, Zuhal Gerçek

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Achmatowicz rearrangement was carried out with 2-chloro-1-(furan-2-yl) ethanol, which was synthesized starting from 1-(furan-2-yl) ethanone. It was shown that the oxidation of 2-chloro-1-(furan-2-yl) ethanol with m-CPBA produced 2-(chloromethyl)-6-hydroxy-2H-pyran-3 (6H)-one in good yield (70%).


Low Temperature Co Oxidation Kinetics Over Activated Carbon Supported Pt-Sno_X Catalysts, Fatma Soyal Baltacioğlu, Berri̇n Gülyüz, Ahmet Erhan Aksoylu, Zeynep İlsen Önsan Jan 2007

Low Temperature Co Oxidation Kinetics Over Activated Carbon Supported Pt-Sno_X Catalysts, Fatma Soyal Baltacioğlu, Berri̇n Gülyüz, Ahmet Erhan Aksoylu, Zeynep İlsen Önsan

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The kinetics of low temperature CO oxidation were studied over sequentially impregnated 1wt%Pt-0.25wt%SnO_x supported on HNO_3-oxidized activated carbon (AC3) using a wide range of CO (1-10 mol%) and O_2 (1-4 mol%) concentrations. Intrinsic kinetic data were obtained in the initial rates region at 383 K in the absence and presence of 5-45 mol% H_2 in the feed. A power-function rate expression with positive dependence on CO (0.96) and negative dependence on oxygen (--0.31) was obtained for the low temperature oxidation of CO. The effect of H_2 on CO oxidation rates was also investigated under similar conditions.
