Steel filter discs were catalytically activated by ALD, using a coating of supporting Al2O3 layer and an active NiO layer for gas cleaning. Prepared discs were tested for model biomass gasification and gas catalytic filtration to reduce or eliminate the need for a separate reforming unit for gasification gas tars and lighter hydrocarbons. Two different coating methods were tested. The method utilizing the stop-flow setting was shown to be the most suitable for the preparation of active and durable catalytic filters, which significantly decreases the amount of tar compounds in gasification gas. A pressure of 5 bar and temperatures of over 850 °C are required for efficient tar reforming. In optimal conditions, applying catalytic coating to the filter resulted in a seven-fold naphthalene conversion increase from 7% to 49%.

The behaviour of one sort of Romanian diatomite as precursor in the synthesis of calcium and magnesium silicates was studied. The calcination of this diatomite, 3 h at 10000C in air, does not produce major modifications in structure and composition. In the same conditions, the thermal reaction between diatomite and calcium carbonate leads to a mixture of calcium silicates (CaSiO3, Ca2SiO4, Ca3SiO5) whereas the reaction product with magnesium oxide is orthomagnesium silicate (Mg2SiO4 - forsterite). This sort of Romanian diatomite can play the same role as other silica sources in the synthesis of alkaline-earth silicates.
