La-based perovskite catalysts offer a promising solution for efficiently degrading VOCs. In this study, a series of LaBO3 (B = Cu, Fe, Cr, Mn, Co) perovskite catalysts were synthesized using the sol-gel method. The influence of various B-site elements on the catalyst’s structure and surface chemical properties was thoroughly examined. Simulations were conducted to assess the VOC reduction capabilities of these catalysts under conditions mimicking sintering flue gas composition. It was found that the crystallite size of the perovskite catalyst decreases as the ionic radius of the B-site elements increases, while the specific surface area, total pore volume, and average pore size increase correspondingly. Notably, LaCoO3 and LaMnO3 demonstrated exceptional activity, attributed primarily to their elevated surface oxygen concentration and oxygen migration capability, positioning them as highly promising materials for further development. Furthermore, a proposed mechanism elucidates the La-based perovskite catalytic reduction of toluene, wherein lattice oxygen and adsorbed oxygen undergo mutual conversion during the oxidation process. This mechanism aligns with the L-H and M-v-K models, providing a comprehensive understanding of the catalytic process.","PeriodicalId":51069,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Chemical Reactor Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141266707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The influence of the reaction conditions on the conversion was investigated. The results showed that the conversion of aconitic acid increased significantly with the rise of temperature and catalyst loading.

The sono-reactor was made of glass, 6 cm in diameter and 17.5 cm in height; fitted with a cooling water jacket. The volume was about 0.4 L and the flow rate of dye solution was 20 mL min−1. Ultrasound was provided with a 120 W probe-type sonicator. The hydrodynamic characteristics were studied by RTD studies and CFD analysis in COMSOL Multiphysics software. The CFD analysis showed the reactor to be behaving like a CSTR with bypassing leading to a short residence time. The optimum treatment conditions in this reactor for degrading Rhodamine B solution were determined using Response Surface Methodology. A model equation correlating the decolorization percentage with the initial dye concentration, H2O2 and Fe2+ dosage (Fenton’s reagent) was developed which can predict the decolorization with a high degree of accuracy. Under optimum conditions, the percent decolorization was 55 and the corresponding COD removal was 15 %. A continuous sono-Fenton reactor, if scaled up properly, can be useful for degradation of dark coloured refractory organics in wastewater where photo-Fenton reaction is ineffective.","PeriodicalId":51069,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Chemical Reactor Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141102100","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, numerical simulation and purification tests were carried out for the purification of zinc sulfate solution. Numerical simulations were conducted to compare the effects of variable-speed stirring and uniform-speed stirring on mixing efficiency, considering both momentum transfer process and mass transfer process. The purification test further demonstrated a significant improvement in the reaction rate under variable-speed stirring, as evidenced by the analysis of purification efficiency and microscopic morphology. It was elaborated that the enhancement mechanism of variable-speed stirring involved disrupting the periodic order structure in the tank, leading to the generation of a multi-scale vortex that increased stirring kinetic energy to form a shear force. This force contributed to reducing the velocity slip between the impurity ions and zinc particles, consequently decreasing reaction time and enhancing purification rate. The results indicated that sinusoidal stirring yielded the most effective mixing. When implemented in practical production settings, it enhanced dimensionless mixing efficiency by 24.83 % compared to the homogeneous stirring system. Additionally, it reduced reaction time by 15.47 % and decreased mixing energy per unit volume by 32.38 %, while simultaneously lowering energy consumption by 24.77 %.","PeriodicalId":51069,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Chemical Reactor Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140682453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research findings underscore the notable impact of ultrasound energy in accelerating the reaction rate constant (k\u0000 p), with the degradation kinetics exhibiting a conformity to first-order kinetics. An integral aspect of the study involves the establishment of a robust relationship between time and concentration by integrating the equation governing the degradation of the dye. Additionally, the determination of the rate constant, derived from the gradients of the graphs, attests to the model’s fitting accuracy. Intriguingly, the outcomes of this analysis reveal no discernible structural changes in the dye. The accuracy of the model is further underscored by the establishment of linear relations derived from experimental data. Summarily, this kinetic study provides invaluable insights into the multifaceted impact of ultrasound energy and the Fe2O3 catalytic influence on both the degradation kinetics of the dye.

The simulations were confirmed with experimental data. To accurately examine the pyrolysis process, the hydrodynamics of the solid bed as well as the heat transfer inside it were analysed separately by considering a precise synthetic model. The effects of gas velocity, particle size, bed length, and temperature were thoroughly investigated. The results indicated that the amount of relative standard deviation increases with an increase in the inlet velocity into the bed. This amount of deviation at the inlet velocity (0.6 m/s for tar and gas flow to its maximum value of 9.1 and 9.4) is not desirable in product production and should be modified so that the amount of gas flow increases and the tar produced reaches the minimum possible amount. Also, the graphs of the relative standard deviation in terms of temperature indicate that the increase in temperature from 730 to 950 K is associated with a relatively smaller fluctuation of the relative standard deviation so that at the temperature of 730 K, it is 7.2 % for tar and 6.4 % for gas flow, while at temperature of 950 K, it is 6.5 % for wire and 6.8 % for gas flow.
