Biomass-derived materials are put forward as eco-friendly alternatives to design heterogeneous catalysts. To contribute in this field, we explored the potential of mesoporous biogenic silica (RH-Silica) obtained from lignocellulosic waste, in particular from rice husk, as an inorganic support to prepare heterogenized iron oxide-based catalysts. Mechanochemistry, considered as a green and sustainable technique, was employed to synthetize iron oxide nanoparticles in pure hematite phase onto the biosilica (α-Fe2O3/RH-Silica), making this material a good candidate to perform catalyzed organic reactions. The obtained material was characterized by different techniques, and its catalytic activity was tested in the selective oxidation of styrene under microwave irradiation. α-Fe2O3/RH-Silica displayed a good catalytic performance, achieving a conversion of 45% under optimized conditions, and more importantly, with a total selectivity to benzaldehyde. Furthermore, a good reusability was achieved without decreasing its activity after multiple catalytic cycles. This work represents a good example of using sustainable approaches and green materials as alternatives to conventional methods in the production of high-added value products.

The iron/iron-oxide looping cycle has the potential to produce high purity hydrogen from coal or natural gas without the need for gas phase separation: Hydrogen is produced from steam oxidation of iron or Wustite yielding primarily Magnetite; Magnetite is then reduced back to iron/Wustite using syngas (CO+H2). A system model has been developed to identify favorable operation conditions and process configurations. Process configurations for three distinct temperature ranges, (i) 500–950 K, (ii) 950–1100 K, and (iii) 1100–1200 K have been developed. The energy content of high temperature syngas from conventional coal gasifiers is sufficient to drive the looping process throughout the temperature range considered. Temperatures around 1000 K are advantageous for both the hydrogen production step and the iron oxide reduction step. Simulations of a large number of subsequent cycles indicate that quasi-steady operation is reached after approximately 5 cycles. Comparison of simulations and experiments indicate that the process is currently limited by chemical kinetics at lower temperatures. Therefore, product recirculation should be used for a scaled-up process to increase reactant residence times while maintaining sufficient fluidization velocity.
