Lyophilized lipase supernatant (LLS) was used during the first step to screen the main variables (pH, temperature, stoichiometric oil:methanol ratio, water content and type of oil). Other variables which were identified during the screening assays (scale of reaction recipient, LLS amount and use of hexane to solubilize methanol forming a methanol-oil microemulsion) were tested during a second step. The response variable was % molar yield of FAME. It was quantified by GC. Additionally, the LLS work parameters were optimized and compared to a partially purified lipase (PPL) during a final assay. The first-order interactions between the analyzed factors were significant (p<0.05). The highest yield was 4.16% w/w (respect to oil) using a partially purified lipase (PPL) with pH 8, refined, bleached, and deodorized oil (RBD), 5% water (by volume) in oil and 10% hexane (by volume), and a stoichiometric ratio of 1:170 oil:methanol. The final assay was carried out at 54°C and 200 rpm for 48 hours. It resulted in a 34.68% conversion using PPL. It also showed a 13-fold improvement versus the initial yield with LLS, suggesting the need for a better purification process. During this research, the lipase was partially purified and used at an alkaline pH. It showed resistance to organic compounds such as methanol and hexane. This implies great potential to act as an effective biocatalyst in the implementation of biodiesel production processes.","PeriodicalId":22755,"journal":{"name":"The Open Catalysis Journal","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80959134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Different activity orders were obtained over γ-Al 2 O 3 and TiO 2 supported catalysts reflecting the critical role of the support. NiMo catalyst supported on γ-alumina proved to be the most active followed by the CoMo catalyst supported on titania. CoMo and NiMo lab made catalysts were proved to be more active compared to a reduced industrial CoMo catalyst supported on γ- alumina. An increase of phenol conversion in the range 52-230% was obtained at 350°C. A series of CoMo, NiMo and NiW catalysts supported on TiO 2 was also prepared using the \"Equilibrium - Deposition - Filtration\" (EDF) method. The application of this technique, instead of the classical impregnation, increased considerably the activity of the CoMo catalyst supported on titania (48% increase of phenol conversion at 350°C). The most active lab catalysts (wet impregnated NiMo catalyst supported on alumina, EDF CoMo catalyst supported on titania) and the industrial CoMo catalyst were evaluated after sulfidation for simultaneous HDO of phenol and HDS of dibenzothiophene. These catalysts exhibited comparable HDO activities while the first one proved to be superior in HDS. Overall, taking into account the significantly higher loading of the industrial catalyst in the supported elements compared to the lab made catalysts, the latter seems to be quite promising, even in the frame of a co-processing strategy.","PeriodicalId":22755,"journal":{"name":"The Open Catalysis Journal","volume":"41 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76275384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was found that the increase in the Co(II) surface concentration affects considerably the kind of the Co(II) species deposited. Mononuclear/mono-substituted inner sphere Co(II) complexes are formed at extremely low Co(II) surface concentration. A mixed surface state involving mononuclear/mono-substituted and binuclear/bi-substituted Co(II) complexes is formed at relatively low Co(II) surface concentration. Only binuclear/bi-substituted Co(II) complexes are formed at intermediate Co(II) surface concentration. Finally, oligo-nuclear inner sphere Co(II) species are formed at relatively high Co(II) surface concentration, in addition to the bi-nuclear ones. The above species concern a range of surface Co(II) concentration extending from zero to 2.7 theoretical surface layers of (Co(H 2 O) 6 ) 2+ . The formation of Co(II) surface precipitate starts above these theoretical surface layers. The above indicates that one may control the surface Co(II) concentration, by adjusting the Co(II) concentration in the impregnating solution, and thus the Co(II) surface species formed. This control allows tailoring the preparation of cobalt catalysts supported on γ-alumina and thus the development of effective Co/γ-alumina catalysts.","PeriodicalId":22755,"journal":{"name":"The Open Catalysis Journal","volume":"4 1","pages":"8-17"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81822148","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Addition of traces of RhCl3, used as a homogeneous catalyst accelerates the reaction resulting in the formation of corresponding dicarboxylic acids. Correlating this result with previously reported results in the un-catalyzed oxidation of cyclopentanone to dicarboxylic acid indicates that hexacyanoferrate(III) in alkaline medium is incapable to oxidize cyclopentanol. Addition of catalyst initiates the initial conversion of cyclic alcohol into cyclic ketone which in turn is oxidized to dicarboxylic acid. Rate follows direct proportionality at low concentrations of catalyst, reaching to a maximum with increasing catalyst concentrations but further increase in RhCl3 concentration retards the reaction velocity. As the amount of catalyst is increased in the reaction mixture it also increases the amount of hydrochloric acid in which RhCl3 was prepared, resulting in the decrease in pH of the medium. At a particular pH, reactive species of catalyst Rh(OH)3(H2O)3, converts into the un-reactive RhCl3(H2O)3 and thus the reaction velocity decreases. Rate of the reaction shows first order kinetics in [OH ] and [cyclic alcohol], but it is one changing to zero order in oxidant concentrations. Increase in chloride ions and hexacyanoferrate(II) concentrations respectively increases and decreases the reaction velocity. Entropy, free energy and enthalpy values were calculated.","PeriodicalId":22755,"journal":{"name":"The Open Catalysis Journal","volume":"85 1","pages":"29-36"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77222937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main step in the conversion of natural gas to these products is the production of synthesis gas with the desired composition ranging from H2/CO = 3:1 used for the production of ammonia to the 1:1 mixture preferred for production of dimethyl ether. Catalysts and catalytic processes are important in the production of synthesis gas from natural gas. In this work, relevant catalytic systems employed recently in the production of syngas by the catalytic partial oxidation of methane, as well as experimental evidences on the reaction mechanisms are examined. Differences in methane dissociation, binding site preferences, stability of OH surface species, surface residence times of active species and contributions from lattice oxygen atoms and support species are considered. The methane dissociation requires reduced metal sites, but at elevated temperatures oxides of active species may be reduced by direct interaction with methane or from the reaction with H2 and CO (or C). The comparison of elementary reaction steps on Pt and Rh illustrates the fact that a key factor to produce hydrogen as primary product is a high activation energy barrier to the formation of OH. Another essential property for the formation of H2 and CO as primary products is a low surface coverage of intermediates, such that the probability of O-H, OH-H and CO-O interactions is reduced.","PeriodicalId":22755,"journal":{"name":"The Open Catalysis Journal","volume":"8 1","pages":"17-28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91080774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Zero order kinetics with respect to (tartaric acid) and first order kinetics in (Ru (III)) were observed in the oxidation of tartaric acid. A positive effect on the rate of reaction has been found on the successive addition of (H + ) and (Cl - ).

The first order rate constant increases with decrease in the dielectric constant of the medium.
