The catalytic behaviors of lanthanum and neodymium oxides for dehydrogenation/dehydration of ethanol Koprowski, Robert John (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)The ethanol dehydrogenation and dehydration reactions have been employed to investigate the nature and behavior of catalytically active sites on lanthanum and neodymium sesquioxides. In support of this objective, x-ray ...

Rouckout, Nicolas Julien (2009-05-15)The catalytic hydrogenation of an aromatic sulfonyl chloride was investigated in continuous and semi-batch mode processes using a Robinson-Mahoney stationary basket reactor. A complete experimental unit was designed and ...
-
Lin, Chiu-Hsun (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)The results of this research indicate that [M⁺O⁻] centers (M = Group IA ions) in Group IA/Group IIA oxides are responsible for the catalytic production of CH₃[superscript dot] radicals from CH₄ through hydrogen atom ...

Sanchez, Richard P., Jr (2010-01-14)Stereoselective carbon?carbon bond formation is one of the most important types of bond construction in organic chemistry. A mild and acid free catalyst system for the hydrovinylation reaction utilizing a cationic, ruthenium ...
-
Moore, Patrick Kevin (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1988)The accurate prediction of phase equilibrium is vital to the modeling of many complex, multiphase reaction mixtures. Phase-equilibrium calculations for such mixtures often become computationally intensive due to the large ...
-
Al Wahabi, Saeed M. H. (Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)In this work, the reaction scheme of the MTO process was written in terms of elementary steps and generated by means of a computer algorithm characterizing the various species by vectors and Boolean relation matrices. The ...

Postula, Walter Stanley (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1994)Recent amendments to the Clean Air Act have renewed interest in synthesizing isobutylene from coal derived synthesis gas for use in producing methyl tertiary-butyl ether. Previous work on isosynthesis was performed at ...
-
Li, Chiuping (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1988)Precipitated iron catalysts were characterized using temperature-programmed methods, isothermal reduction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to study the influence of copper and potassium promoters on reduction behavior ...
-
Lee, Won Jae (Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)A fundamental kinetic model based upon the Hougen-Watson formalism was derived as a basis not only for a better understanding of the reaction behavior but also for the design and simulation of industrial reactors. Kinetic ...

Frianeza, Teresita Naila de la Cueva (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)[alpha]-Titanium phosphate, Ti(HPO4)2 * H2O, has layered structure isomorphous with [alpha]-zirconium phosphate, Zr(HPO4)2 * H2O. Thus, solid solutions of the two compounds were prepared and their properties correlated ...
-
Castaneda-Lopez, Luis Carlos (2009-05-15)A rigorous kinetic model of hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of complex mixtures such as light cycle oil (LCO) or diesel has been developed. An experimental setup was constructed to investigate the hydrotreatment of complex ...
-
Nowlan, Daniel Thomas (Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)Transition metal catalyzed reactions have an important place in synthetic chemistry, but the mechanistic details for many of these reactions remain undetermined. Through a combination of experimentally determined 13C kinetic ...
