A critical review of different prominent nanotechnologies adapted to catalysis is provided,
with focus on how they contribute to the improvement of selectivity in heterogeneous …

Production of propylene, the second-largest petrochemical after ethylene, has received
considerable attention in recent years due to its wide applications and avoiding oil …

Three Ni-based natural gas steam reforming catalysts, ie, commercial JM25-4Q and JM57-
4Q, and a laboratory-made catalyst (26% Ni on a 5% SiO2–95% Al2O3), are tested in a …

High temperature treated transition aluminas display adsorptive and catalytic properties that
are in many ways comparable to those of their low temperature counterpart γ-Al 2 O 3. While …

Ethanol dehydration was investigated over commercial H-FER, H-MFI, H-MOR, H-BEA, HY
and H-USY zeolite samples, and alumina and silica alumina for comparison. The catalysts …

The catalytic conversion of ethanol and diethyl ether (DEE) was studied over alumina,
zeolites MFI, FER and USY, silica–alumina and calcined hydrotalcite. Zeolites, alumina and …

The economic value of bioethylene produced from bioethanol dehydration is remarkable
due to its extensive usage in the petrochemical industry. Bioethylene is produced through …

Selective ethanol dehydrogenation to acetaldehyde is an important reaction because
acetaldehyde is a useful commodity chemical and can serve as a building block to produce …

Abstract La 2 O 3/γ–Al 2 O 3, NiO/γ–Al 2 O 3 and NiO/La 2 O 3/γ–Al 2 O 3 samples have
been prepared by conventional impregnation, using silica-free γ-Al 2 O 3 support. The …

In modern technologies, the researchers are keen on top-down approaches to tailor the
materials from bulk into their nanometer forms. For the amorphous alumina, this is the other …
