Catalytic hydrogenation of CO<sub>2</sub> into value-added chemicals and fuels including methanol is one of the attractive environmentally friendly ways to valorize carbon-containing feedstock and reduce global CO<sub>2</sub> emissions. However, enhancing catalytic activity to achieve high methanol yield and selectivity while maintaining stability remains a major challenge. This study investigated the promotion of Cu/MOF-5 catalysts with varying loadings of ZrO₂ to determine its effects on catalytic performance in CO₂ hydrogenation. The copper loading was kept constant while the ZrO₂ content on the MOF-5 support was varied via the impregnation method. The addition of ZrO₂ was found to influence the BET surface area, suggesting the presence of amorphous ZrO₂, as its crystalline phases were not detected in x-ray diffractograms. Catalytic results demonstrated that ZrO₂ addition enhanced the catalytic activity, with increased CO₂ conversion up to 13.2 %. The results showed a correlation between catalytic performance and the reducibility of the active metal, driven by the amount of ZrO₂ present. The catalyst with the highest ZrO₂ loading exhibited the best performance, attributed to its increased surface area and enhanced reducibility. Under optimized conditions (GHSV of 1350 h⁻¹, temperature of 200 °C, and pressure of 30 bar), the catalyst achieved 100 % methanol selectivity. This study underscores the significant role of ZrO₂ as a promoter in enhancing the activity and selectivity of Cu/MOF-5 catalysts, providing critical insights into the design of efficient catalytic systems for CO₂ hydrogenation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":21926,"journal":{"name":"South African Journal of Chemical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1026918524000921/pdfft?md5=edbedba8549ece5e2bb997cbd7b2d069&pid=1-s2.0-S1026918524000921-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141953539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The literature review results indicate that NZL swelling is a pretreatment integral to the synthesis process of NZL. The synthesis of Lampung natural zeolite (NZL) was conducted to form hierarchical zeolites. NZL, as a hierarchical zeolite, is defined as a system containing additional pores. The formation of secondary porosity distinguishes it, reduction of alkali and alkaline earth metals, removal of impurities, transformation of symmetric to asymmetric strains, increase in acidity, and most importantly, the occurrence of dealumination and desilication processes as the cause of the achievement of these indicators. Generally, the initial post-synthesis modification sequence, which typically involves acid and base treatment, is carried out separately. In this study, however, the dealumination and desilication modifications will be carried out simultaneously in a single process, namely by the swelling method. Consequently, it is essential to ascertain the optimal operating parameters at the requisite atmospheric pressure, thus enabling the simultaneous dealumination and desilication processes within the NZL swelling method. In this case, the swelling method is a pretreatment analogous to the initial zeolite activation conducted in previous studies. The swelling NZL method can potentially overcome the laborious and expensive synthesis procedures that currently limit the scale-up of this material into large-scale production.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":21926,"journal":{"name":"South African Journal of Chemical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1026918524000933/pdfft?md5=5484cc82c5490a6fc53fb7882eb2596e&pid=1-s2.0-S1026918524000933-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141963027","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The synthesized nanocomposite was characterized using several techniques, such as, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), FTIR (Fourier Transform-Infra Red) spectroscopy and surface area. We then use response surface methodology (RSM) to optimize the synthesis process and evaluate the effectiveness of the prepared nanocomposite for tetracycline remediation. We took different simulated concentrations of the TC contaminant without relying on actual TC concentrations in grounwater, the best removal of the TC contaminant in batch study was investigated with relying on the initial concentrations of TC and other experimental factors such as pH, adsorbent nanomaterial concentration and time. A pilot plant was then constructed to eliminate the TC contaminant from groundwater in different concentrations, where the removal efficiency was found decreased with increasing in the concentration of the TC Many parameters affecting the removal mechanisms in statistical and continuous systems were examined to select the best results that accomplish the maximum elimination rate. With the improved operating conditions, (L-Fe/Ni concentration: 1500 mg/L; concentration of TC: 20 mg/L; pH: 7.2; contact time: 128 min), removal percent of TC was found 87 % based on RSM system. The L-Fe/Ni reactive medium of continuous column has a main role in slowing down the movement of the TC plume. This study showed that the ecofriendly nanocomposite could be an appropriate and novel method for remediation of antibiotics and other contaminants in groundwater.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":21926,"journal":{"name":"South African Journal of Chemical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1026918524000829/pdfft?md5=67ec0b60481e51936d04432b2ad554bb&pid=1-s2.0-S1026918524000829-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141848687","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
