Adsorptive Removal of Dimethyl Disulfide in Olefin Rich C4 with Ion-Exchanged Zeolites

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the removal of dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) in the olefin rich Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) C4 hydrocarbon mixture with the ion-exchanged β-zeolite. Effects of Si/Al ratio, metal cations, and the ion exchange level on the removal efficiency have been accessed by performing the breakthrough experiment with a model C4 mixture of 20 ppm DMDS in 40% n-Butane/60%1-Butene. The metal ions used for the preparation of ion exchanged zeolite are Ag(I), Cu(II), Ni(II), Fe(III), and Cu(I). The adsorption characteristics of 1-Butene and DMDS on the adsorbent have been studied through the temperature programmed desorption (TPD).

The production, characterization and applications of nanoparticles in the textile industry

“…Hydrogen from the decomposition process, supplemented by that carried within the bulk phase, contributes to the activation and reactivation of the catalytic surface. The CVD method gives a high CNT yield and is potentially scalable to commercial manufacturing [129]. The CVD method is capable not only of synthesizing a large quantity of CNTs, but also of controlling CNT growth directions on a substrate.…”

Preparation of ultrastrength nanopapers using cellulose nanofibrils

“…As shown in Fig. 1, the homogenizer consists of inlet reservoir, intensifier pump, pressure gauge, interaction chamber, cooling jacket and outlet [5]. A fundamental mechanism of the homogenizer is to bombard a fluid stream including cellulose within interaction chambers at high pressure and velocity, generating shear rates within the fluid stream.…”

“…The shearing, grinding and impact forces generated during the mechanical treatments are basically the major mechanisms for manufacturing the substructural CNF. Cellulose with nanoscale web-like formation has been produced by mechanical treatment using a high pressure homogenizer [4][5][6][7] or grinding after chemical pretreatment [8][9][10]. Mechanical dispersion of pulp fibers by a high-pressure homogenizer produced fibril structures with diameters between 20 and 100 nm and lengths of about tens of micrometers [4,5,7].…”

A Minireview of Cellulose Nanocrystals and Its Potential Integration as Co-Product in Bioethanol Production

“…The cellulose fibrils were in the range from 28 to 100 nm. 46 MFC was extracted from the rachis of the date palm and, after bleaching, it was disintegrated by high pressure homogenization. The solid content of the suspensions was around 0.3 wt%.…”
