Item type:Publication, Dimethyl ether synthesis from methanol over diatomite catalyst modified using nitric acid treatment(2016-08-02) ;Pranee, Watcharakorn ;Neramittagapong, Sutasinee; Neramittagapong, ArthitDimethyl ether synthesis from methanol over diatomite catalysts modified using nitric acid was investigated. The catalytic performance of diatomite was tested in a fixed-bed reactor under atmospheric pressure and within the temperature range of 250–350°C. It was discovered that high acidity of the catalyst yielded a higher methanol conversion rate. Moreover, it was revealed that the acidity of the catalyst surface was controlled by Al<sup>(IV)</sup> ions whereas basicity of the catalyst surface was determined by Al<sup>(V)</sup> and Al<sup>(VI)</sup> ions. From this finding, the authors were able to propose the mechanism of DME synthesis from methanol over treated diatomite. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Dimethyl ether synthesis via methanol dehydration over diatomite catalyst modified using hydrochloric acid(2014-01-01) ;Pranee, Watcharakorn; ;Neramittagapong, ArthitNeramittagapong, SutasineeThe synthesis of dimethyl ether via methanol dehydration has been carried out over untreated-diatomite catalyst (DM) and hydrochloric acid modified treatment on diatomite catalyst (DMHC). The reactions were carried out in a fixed-bed reactor. The effects of hydrochloric acid modifications of diatomite on its catalytic performance were studied. The characterization such as XRD, SEM, FT-IR and FT-Raman had no deformation after HCl-modified treatment on catalysts. DMHC catalyst apparently gave the higher methanol conversion rate than DM due to the acidity while the selectivity of dimethyl ether from 250 to 350°C was slightly changed. The acidity was depended upon Al<sup>(IV)</sup> ions; nevertheless, both Al<sup>(V)</sup> and Al<sup>(VI)</sup> were affected and hence increasing the basic active sites. Not only was the competitively catalytic methanol dehydrogenation preferred with basic condition but also methanol-blocking water molecule interaction was the unwanted reaction. In this investigation, the chemical-bond arrangements of silicon and aluminium ions were proposed with solid MAS/NMR. The DMHC catalyst exhibited better DME yield than the DM catalyst, and it could be used as a selective catalyst for DME synthesis from methanol. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Adsorption of Ammonia Nitrogen in Aqueous Solution Using Zeolite A(2019-10-25); Rueangdechawiwat, R.The capacity of alternative adsorbents including rice straw, delignified rice straw and zeolite A for ammonia nitrogen removal from aqueous solution was investigated. The adsorption experiments were carried out in batch system with initial ammonia nitrogen concentration of 0.5 mg-N/l, 1000 ml ammonia nitrogen solution for 1 g of adsorbent. Experimental data indicated that rice straw and delignified rice straw cannot adsorb ammonia nitrogen. However, zeolite A provided rapidly adsorption capacity for ammonia nitrogen removal. The amount of ammonia nitrogen adsorbed by zeolite A was 0.256 mg/g at 1 minute after the experiment was initially conducted and slightly stable at 0.275 mg/g after 10 minutes. The adsorption experiments were carried out at 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, and 8.0 mg-N/l of ammonia nitrogen concentration. The results indicated that zeolite A had the adsorption capacity of 0.102, 0.294, 0.551, 1.153, 2.303, and 3.897 mg/g respectively at equilibrium time. The Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption models were applied to describe the equilibrium isotherms. Based on R<sup>2</sup>, Freundlich model was more promising to represent the adsorption data than Langmuir model. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Catalytic wet-air oxidation of aniline removal from synthetic wastewater(2014-01-01); ; ;Neramittagapong, ArthitNeramittagapong, SutasineeWet-air oxidation (WAO) and catalytic wet-air oxidation (CWAO) over CuO/Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> and NiO/Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> catalysts for aniline removal were investigated. The oxidation reaction was carried out in a 1000-ml high-pressure batch reactor. The temperatures of 160, 200 and 260°C and the pressures of 5 and 10 bars were generally applied for 120 min. CuO/Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> and NiO/Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> catalysts were prepared by impregnation method. It is found from the results that aniline was completely degraded at these conditions. However, aniline was converted into other organic carbons which remained in the solution. So COD was found in the solution after the reaction. It is seen from the results that 56% of COD was removed by WAO at 200°C and 10 bars for 120 min. The CWAO over CuO/Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> catalyst showed higher COD removal (76%) than NiO/Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> catalyst (60%). The types of metal oxide had an effect to the activity of COD removal; that is, CuO showed higher COD removal than NiO. The WAO and CWAO of COD removal in aniline solution were the first-order kinetic with the constant reaction rate and activation energy for CuO/Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> of 0.234 s<sup>-1</sup> and 11.772 kJ/mol, respectively. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Adsorption of free fatty acid from crude palm oil on magnesium silicate derived from rice husk(2011-08-01) ;Clowutimon, Weerawat ;Kitchaiya, PrakobMagnesium silicate with various silica and magnesium oxide ratios (SiO<inf>2</inf>/MgO ratios) was used as the adsorbent for a study of adsorption of free fatty acid (FFA) in crude palm oil (CPO). Magnesium silicate was prepared from magnesium nitrate or magnesium sulfate solution precipitated with a solution of sodium silicate derived from rice husk. SiO<inf>2</inf>/MgO ratios of the magnesium silicate synthesized from magnesium nitrate and magnesium sulfate were 3.93, 3.75, 2.74, 2.40, 1.99 and 3.96, 3.61, 3.51, 2.91, 2.69, respectively. FFA adsorption on the magnesium silicate was carried out by adding 1 gram of the adsorbent to 50 grams of CPO and shaking for 1 hour at 50°C. It was found that SiO<inf>2</inf>/MgO prepared from magnesium nitrate ratio of 1.99 had the highest adsorption capacities of 185 mg of FFA per gram of adsorbent. In addition, increasing of SiO<inf>2</inf>/MgO ratios of magnesium silicate was found to reduce the adsorption capacities due to decreasing of FFA chemisorption. The effect of dosage amount to equilibrium adsorption capacities were carried out by adding different amount of magnesium silicate (SiO<inf>2</inf>/MgO ratio of 1.99) to 50 grams of CPO. The result showed that efficiency decreased when dosage increased. The Fruendlich and Langmuir isotherm were applied to describe this absorption system. The values of maximum sorption capacity (Q<sup>0</sup>) and Langmuir's sorption affinity (b) in the Langmuir equation obtained by linear-regression were minus values which were physically meaningless. Thus, FFA adsorption on magnesium silicate was both physisorption and chemisorption and well represented by the Fruenlich isotherm. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Methanol dehydration to dimethyl ether over strong-acid-modified diatomite catalysts(2016-11-01) ;Pranee, Watcharakorn ;Neramittagapong, Sutasinee; Neramittagapong, ArthitDimethyl ether synthesis via methanol dehydration over strong-acid-modified (with sulfuric, hydrochloric and nitric acid) diatomite (DM) catalysts was conducted in a fixed-bed reactor with elevated temperature reaction from 250 to 350°C. The modified DM catalysts were characterized by using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, fourier transform Raman spectroscopy, temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia, temperature-programmed of carbon dioxide, thermal gravimetric analysis, and solid-state 27Aluminum magic angle spinning/nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. It was found that sulfuric-acid-modified DM catalyst yielded the highest DME selectivity (~99%). It was also revealed that methanol conversion depended on Al ions. The methanol conversion increased with Al<sup>(IV)</sup> but decreased with Al<sup>(V)</sup> and Al<sup>(VI)</sup>. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Optimizing Decolorization Efficiency of Methylene Blue by Photo-Fenton Process over Fe-Diatomite using Central Composite Design(2018-01-01); ;Champa, Varocha ;Kitchaiya, PrakobThe methylene blue was degraded by photo-fenton over Fe-diatomite prepared by dry impregnation method. The characterizations of catalyst were studied by XRD, XRF and BET surface area. The photo-fenton reaction conditions were studied as parameters of the H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf> concentration, the amount of Fe-diatomite, the initial concentration of methylene blue and the initial pH of solution, which were designed by central composite design (CCD) based on response surface methodology (RSM) to accomplish the optimal condition. The results showed that the optimum condition was at the initial H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf> concentration of 116 mg/L, the Fe-diatomite of 1 g/L, the initial MB concentration of 200 mg/L and the pH of 5.8. It could predict the decolorization value of 100% and reduce the total organic carbon (TOC) to 72.3%. Finally, the validation was tested in 5 runs at the optimization about 99.2 ± 0.2% which implied that the regression model is in a good agreement. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Adsorption of FFA, soap and glycerine in biodiesel using magnesium silicate(2015-01-01); ;Jintanavasan, PornrinKitchaiya, PrakobThe effect of SiO<inf>2</inf>/MgO molar ratios of magnesium silicate on adsorption of free fatty acid (FFA), soap and glycerine in biodiesel was studied. The magnesium silicate adsorbent was prepared by the precipitation of magnesium sulfate and sodium metasilicate. The molar ratios of SiO<inf>2</inf>/MgO in synthetic magnesium silicate,i.e.,0.31:1, 0.76:1 and 2.04:1 were obtained by varying concentrations of Na2SiO<inf>3</inf>:MgSO<inf>4</inf>. The element analysis, crystal structures and surface area and pore size of the adsorbents were characterized by X-ray fluorescence method (XRF), X-ray diffraction method (XRD) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller technique (BET), respectively. FTIR technique was used to confirm the chemical characteristics of the adsorbents. The adsorption efficiency of synthesized magnesium silicate in biodiesel containing different amount of SiO<inf>2</inf> / MgO molar ratios was studied by varying dosage amount of adsorbents (1, 2 and 3 g) for 150 g of biodiesel at 60°C for 5 hours. The results showed that the magnesium silicate at 2.04:1 SiO<inf>2</inf>/MgO molar ratio and 3 g of adsorbent showed the highest efficiency in adsorption of FFA, soap and glycerine at 77.39%, 77.11% and 82.92%, respectively. While the adsorption capacity was 52.57 mg/g of FFA adsorption, 1.37 mg/g of soap adsorption and 155.06 mg/g of glycerine adsorption. The 2.04:1 molar ratio of SiO<inf>2</inf>/MgO in magnesium silicate had the biggest pore size, 105 A°, that was proportional to the contaminates adsorbed. Noticeably, the structure size of concerned contaminates were large, so the pore size of adsorbents could play a significant role on adsorptivity of adsorbate. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
