Single-pellet moment technique which was initially proposed for the measurement of effective diffusivities in porous catalysts and adsorption rate and equilibrium constants was modified for the analysis of gas-solid reactions. In this technique dynamic version of the Wicke-Kallenbach single-pellet cell was used A pulse of a tracer gas was introduced into stream flowing over one end face of the pellet. In the modified pulse-double response procedure, experimental moments of the response peaks of both reactant and product Bases measured in both top and bottom outlet streams of the single-pellet reader wee used for the evaluation of intrapellet rate and equilibrium parameters. Application of the technique to the reaction of SO2 with activated soda indicated that the value of while modulus decreased from 6.74 to 0.33 by the increase of fractional conversion of Na2CO3 to Na2SO3 from zero to 0.63. In this range of conversion values a significant variation in pore structure and also a decrease of effective diffusivity of SO2 from 0.045 cm(2)/s to 0.025 cm(2)/s was observed. A cell model which considered the changes in pore length and radius with reaction extent and variations in product lays diffusion resistance was shown to be successfully used in the analysis of experimental observations. A review of single-pellet dynamic reader studies for catalytic and noncatalytic gas-solid reactions was also given.

An ONIOM and DFT Study of Water Adsorption on Rutile TiO2 (110) Cluster
Erdogan, Rezan; Fellah, Mehmet Ferdi; Önal, Işık (2011-01-01)
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations performed at ONIOM DFT B3LYP/6-31G**-MD/UFF level are employed to study molecular and dissociative water adsorption on rutile TiO2 (110) surface represented by partially relaxed Ti25O37 ONIOM cluster. DFT calculations indicate that dissociative water adsorption is not favorable because of high activation barrier (23.2 kcal/mol). The adsorption energy and vibration frequency of both molecularly and dissociatively adsorbed water molecule on rutile TiO2 (110) surfac...
An ONIOM and DFT Study of Water and Ammonia Adsorption on Anatase TiO2 (001) Cluster
Erdogan, Rezan; Önal, Işık (2011-08-05)
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations at ONIOM DFT B3LYP/6-31G**-MD/UFF level are employed to study molecular and dissociative water and ammonia adsorption on anatase TiO2 (001) surface represented by partially relaxed Ti20O35 ONIOM cluster. DFT calculations indicate that water molecule is dissociated on anatase TiO2 (001) surface by a nonactivated process with an exothermic relative energy difference of 58.12 kcal/mol. Dissociation of ammonia molecule on the same surface is energetically more favora...
A moment technique for adsorption rate on metal surfaces of supported catalysts CO adsorption on Pt-Al2O3 washcoated monolith
Dogu, G; Ozkan, G; Doğu, Timur (2001-12-15)
A moment technique was developed for the investigation of adsorption on metal surfaces of supported catalysts. The technique was applied to the evaluation of adsorption rate parameters of CO on a Pt-Al2O3 washcoated monolith. The adsorption rate constants evaluated in the temperature range 273-316 K showed significant decrease with an increase in surface coverage. Results of pulse response experiments corresponding to zero coverage gave the apparent activation energy for adsorption as 21 kJ/mol. This method...

Corlu, T.; Karaduman, I.; Galioglu, S.; Akata Kurç, Burcu; YILDIRIM, MEMET ALİ; ATEŞ, AYTÜNÇ; ACAR, SELİM (2018-02-01)
We report the successful synthesis and characterization of Zn1-xCuxO (x = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20) thin films prepared by a simple and facile Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption and Reaction (SILAR) method. The nitrogen monoxide (NO) gas sensing properties of the Zn1-xCuxO sensors were studied systematically. The sensors were proved to have acceptable responses towards 20 ppb NO gas. Zn0.90Cu0.10O exhibited improved sensing performance at operating temperature of 55 degrees C compared to other samples. To impr...
Diffusion Resistances and Contribution of Surface Diffusion in TAME and TAEE Production Using Amberlyst-15

Effective diffusivities and adsorption equilibrium constants of methanol, ethanol and 2-methyl-2-butene (2M2B), in Amberlyst 15, were evaluated from batch adsorption experiments. Moment expressions derived for different models involving diffusion resistances in the macropores and within the gel-like micrograins were used for the evaluation of effective diffusion coefficients. Contribution of surface diffusion to diffusion flux within the macropores was found to be quite significant. Also, it was found that ...
