Abstract

The kinetics of the esterification of free fatty acids (FFA) in low grade crude palm oil (CPO) with methanol was studied. In this work, the effects of operational variables involved in the esterification process i.e. alcohol to oil molar ratio, reaction temperature, agitation speed and the initial amount of FFA of oil, were studied in the presence of sulphuric acid as catalyst at concentration of 1%-w. The experimental results show that the esterification process could lead to a practical and cost effective FFA removal unit in front of typical oil transesterification for biodiesel production. The experimental results were found to fit a first-order kinetic law. The influence of temperature on the kinetic constants was determined by fitting the results to the Arrhenius equation.

Abstract

Single component and mixture adsorption of CO2, CO and H2 in Silicalite-1 was studied with the step response experiments and through molecular simulations. Experiments were performed at 323.15, 373.15 and 473.15 K, and in the pressure range 10.13 to 81.06 kPa. CO2 adsorption was favored over CO during all studied conditions. The adsorption enthalpies were -24.3 and -13.5 kJ/mol for CO2 and CO respectively. Adsorption simulations were performed using the Grand Canonical Monte Carlo method. A new zeolite framework potential was derived, and was shown to give good agreement with the experimental results. The major reason for the higher saturation loading of CO2 compared to CO is however the stronger sorbate-zeolite attraction for CO2. The affinity for CO2 also causes a decrease in the adsorbed molar fraction of CO due to the competition with CO2.

Abstract

Catalytic performance and characterization of Ni/CeO2/ZrO2 and commercial catalyst from Indonesia were investigated in steam reforming of methane. Ni/CeO2/ZrO2 catalyst was prepared using co-impregnation of cerium nitrate and nickel nitrate onto zirconia support material. BET, SEM, EDS, XRD, TPD, TG, and ICP analyses were employed for the characterization of the catalysts. Remarkable catalytic performance of Ni/CeO2/ZrO2 catalyst at 600oC operating temperature and atmospheric pressure of about 74.9% methane conversion was obtained compared to 55.9% using the commercial catalyst. In addition, the presence of cerium in Ni/CeO2/ZrO2 was effective in improving the stability and resistance to coke formation. Less carbon formation was confirmed from the thermo-gravimetric analysis. These results showed that the prepared catalyst is promising in the industrial application which can be used at lower operation temperature for energy saving.

Abstract

Carbon coated monolith was used as adsorbent to remove methylene blue from aqueous solution. Adsorption rate and equilibrium parameters of methylene blue were investigated in a batch system. Equilibrium adsorption data were predicted by two isotherms, i.e. the Langmuir and the Freundlich isotherms. The best fit to the data was obtained with the Langmuir isotherm with maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of 191.307 mg/g. Kinetics of adsorption with respect to the initial concentration of dye was described by using both the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models. It was found that kinetic data fitted well with the pseudo-first-order model.

Abstract

Experimental and modeling have been done to study and to determine the diffusion parameters of CO2 adsorption on HZSM-5 zeolite in a packed­bed adsorber. Experiment works consisted of tracer and adsorption experiments. The feed gas concentrations were 40 and 80% CO2 in helium within various temperatures of 373, 423 and 473 K. The experiments were conducted by using transient step change adsorption. Tracer experiments using 20% Ar/He were conducted to measure dispersion and time lag effect of the packed bed system. A model of CO2 adsorption on HZSM­5 had been set up for transient packed­bed adsorber by assuming plug flow, isothermal and isobaric, single site Langmuir physisorption, no gas film mass transport resistance and Maxwell­Stefan mass transport in micropore applied. All the data were then optimized to get the best value of modified fitted parameter. The results indicated that at higher temperature, the quantities of gas adsorbed were decrease. This was due to lower adsorption capacity which occurs at higher temperature. The model was in a good agreement with the experiment data. Diffusivity tended to increase by increasing temperatures.

Abstract

Magnetic properties of a series of hematite particles of pseudocubic or pseudoellipsoidal shape consisting of sub-nanoparticles, as well as irregularly shaped hematite agglomerates, were investigated. The microstructures of hematite particles directly obtained from a hydrothermal process were finely controlled with different experimental conditions, such as the type of counter anion, Fe3+/OH- ratio, surfactant, and aging time. Although samples with different microstructures have a nearly same value of the saturation magnetization, a large variation in the coercivity (Hc) is observed. Hc is found to be closely related to the microcrystal size and its packing density, as well as the formed particle morphologies. The findings obtained in this work contribute to further understanding about the correlation between the microstructural features and the magnetic properties of hematite superstructures. With such fundamental knowledge, it is possible for a systematic search of controlling synthesis parameters which will further lead to the fabrication of hematite particles with optimized magnetic properties for different technological demands.

Abstract

We have invented graphical representation of separation performance and the exergy loss of all subprocesses in a distillation column on material-utilization diagram (MUD). The diagram display flowrate of liquid and gas as abscissa and ln x and ln y as ordinate. This diagram is useful for qualifying and quantifying the exergy loss in a distillation column, since exergy gain and exergy loss in the liquid and gas phases as well as in the phase change, can be displayed in a single figure. This paper is proposed to apply this MUD for revamping of distillation column.

Abstract

Synthesis of aluminium pillared smectite from two raw clays, saponite and Indonesian montmorillonite, has been investigated. The clays were characterized by XRD, N2 adsorption isotherm, DTA-TGA, surface acidity measurements using pyridine-FTIR method, and evaluated for catalytic esterification reaction. The characterization indicated an increase in d001 by metal oxide pillar, increase in BET specific surface area, and surface acidity. DTA-curves showed exothermic peaks in the range of 100-130oC and 400-800oC. TGA curves showed an increase in thermal stability of pillared clays. For both kinds of clays, it was also observed that pillarization reduced weight loss at high temperature. Esterification reaction rate constant and surface acidity data showed that the Brønsted acidity dominantly affects the reaction mechanism compared with the effect of specific surface area and Lewis acid site. Montmorillonite and pillared montmorillonite exhibited higher catalytic activity than saponite and pillared saponite although the specific surface areas of the latter are higher.
