The deactivation mechanism of a copper chromite catalyst, used in selective hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alcohol, was investigated and the methods to regenerate it were searched. The catalyst deactivation mechanisms was found to be due to the fouling resin macromolecules, formed by side reactions of furfural on the catalyst surface. The optimum catalyst regeneration was by one drying at 110 degrees C for 5 days, heating at 325 degrees C for 18 hours followed by refluxing in cyclohexanol for 4 hours. The conversion to furfuryl alcohol by the regenerated sample in vapor phase hydrogenation was 78 per cent, compared to 79.5 per cent for the fresh catalyst.

KINETICS OF MULTIPRODUCT ACIDOGENIC AND SOLVENTOGENIC BATCH FERMENTATIONS OZILGEN, M (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1988-12-01) Large amounts of data indicated that most of the metabolic processes of the acidogenic (acid producing) and the solventogenic (solvent producing) fermentations were regulated by product accumulation. A simple unstructured model simulated microbial growth, product formation and substrate utilization in six different fermentations, where five different microorganisms produced various combinations of ten different products. Specific growth rates of these microorganisms decreased proportionally with overall pro...
Synthesis of silver nanoparticles by oleylamine-oleic acid reduction and its use in making nanocable by coaxial electrospinning Çınar, Simge; MAVİŞ, BORA; Çolak, Üner (American Scientific Publishers, 2011-12-01) In the present study, silver nanoparticles were produced by hydrazine hydrate and oleylamine/oleic acid systems in order to investigate the effects of reducing agents with different strengths on the reduction mechanism. Particle size and size distribution of silver particles produced by slow reducing system were studied in detail by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS), and surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy (SPR). Finally, reductio...
Synthesis of FeTi from mixed oxide precursors Tan, Serdar; Oers, Taylan; Aydınol, Mehmet Kadri; Öztürk, Tayfur; Karakaya, İshak (2009-05-05) A study was carried out on the synthesis of FeTi intermetallics from mixed oxide precursors using the method of electro-deoxidation. Fe2O3 and TiO2 mixed in molar proportions of 1:2 were sintered at temperatures ranging from 900 degrees C to 1300 degrees C. The sintered pellet of mixed oxides, connected as cathode, was then electrolyzed in a molten CaCl2 at 900 degrees C using a graphite anode at a potential of 3.2 V. The electrolysis yielded the target composition FeTi in substantial amounts only when the ...
Degradation of chlorinated compounds by Penicillium camemberti in batch and up-flow column reactors Taseli, BK; Gökçay, Celal Ferdi (Elsevier BV, 2005-02-01) A Penicillium camemberti strain isolated in this laboratory was studied for its ability to degrade chlorinated compounds including pentachlorophenol (PCP), 2-chlorophenol and trichloroacetic acid. The batch experiments were conducted in shake flasks using PCP as co-substrate resulting in around 56% PCP removal by the fungus. Experiments in shake flasks not containing acetate but Tween 80, produced 86% of PCP and 53% of 2-chlorophenol removals in 21 days. PCP was also fed to a column reactor with an adsorbab...
Synthesis and biological evaluation of optically active conjugated gamma- and delta-lactone derivatives ŞARDAN, Melis; Sezer, Serdar; GUNEL, Aslihan; AKKAYA, MAHİNUR; Tanyeli, Cihangir (2012-09-15) An efficient synthesis of racemic and both enantiomeric forms of heteroaryl substituted gamma- and delta-lactone derivatives derived from allyl and homoallyl alcohol backbones has been accomplished via ring closing metathesis reaction. 2-Heteroaryl substituted allyl and homoallyl alcohols have been efficiently resolved through enzymatic method with high ee (97-99%) and known stereochemistry. Antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of target lactones were evaluated.
