The results suggest that the BTHC formulation used was detrimental to RBC quality. DINCH bags could be a viable alternative to DEHP: they outperformed DEHP bags energetically, with better maintenance of ATP levels.
The direct catalytic conversion of syngas to aromatics offers a promising route to manufacture fine chemicals by employing non-petroleum carbon resources, because aromatic constituents are the key platform for producing polymers. However, this remains a great challenge due to the low yield of aromatics and poor catalyst stability, which restrict further development. In recent years, extensive research has been reported on the design of effective catalysts and the optimization of operating conditions to obtain better catalytic performance. In this review, we focus on these related achievements and present a comprehensive overview of different kinds of catalysts, mainly including modified Fischer-Tropsch (FT) catalysts and composite catalysts, as well as their performance and reaction mechanisms. The thermodynamic analysis of the reactions involved in this innovative conversion process and the comparison of different methods are also described in detail in this updated review. Finally, the challenges and prospects for direct syngas conversion are discussed to provide general guidelines for the construction of a well-designed reaction route.
High-purity H 2 was produced by the sorption enhanced steam reforming (SESR) of acetic acid, a model compound of bio-oil obtained from the fast pyrolysis of biomass, in a fluidized bed reactor. A Pd/Ni-Co hydrotalcite-like material (HT) and dolomite were used as reforming catalyst and CO 2 sorbent, respectively. The hydrogen yield and purity were optimized by response surface methodology (RSM) and the combined effect of the reaction temperature (T), steam-to-carbon molar ratio in the feed (steam/C) and weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) upon the sorption enhanced steam reforming process was analyzed. T was studied between 475 and 675 ºC, steam/C ratio between 1.5 and a 4.5 mol/mol and WHSV between 0.893 and 2.679 h-1. H 2 yield, H 2 selectivity and H 2
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
