Background: Cerium oxide nanoparticles (nanoceria) are efficient free-radical scavengers due to their dual valence state and thus exhibit optical and catalytic properties. Therefore, the main purpose of this work was to understand the peroxidase mimic activity of polymer-stabilized nanoceria for enzyme-less H2O2 sensing by fluorescence spectrometer. Objective: This research revealed the development of fluorescence hydrogen peroxide nanosensor based on the peroxidase-like activity of polyacrylic acid stabilized nanoceria (PAA-CeO2 Nps). Methods: PAA-CeO2 Nps were synthesized by simple cross-linking reaction at a low temperature and characterized by XRD, SEM, Zeta potential, TGA, FT-IR and UV-VIS spectroscopic analysis. H2O2 sensing was performed by a fluorescence spectrometer. Results:: The synthesized polymer nanocomposite was characterized by XRD, SEM, TGA, FT-IR and UV-VIS spectroscopic analysis. The XRD diffraction patterns confirmed the polycrystalline nature and SEM micrograph showed nanoparticles having hexagonal symmetry and crystallite size of 32 nm. The broad peak of Ce–O bond appeared at 508 cm-1. UV-VIS measurements revealed a welldefined absorbance peak around 315 nm and an optical band-gap of 3.17 eV. As synthesized PAACeO2 Nps effectively catalysed the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into hydroxyl radicals. Then terephthalic acid was oxidized by hydroxyl radical to form a highly fluorescent product. Under optimized conditions, the linear range for determination of hydrogen peroxide was 0.01 - 0.2 mM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.2 μM. Conclusion: The proposed method is ideally suited for the sensing of H2O2 at a low cost and this detection system enabled the sensing of analytes (sugars), which can enzymatically generate hydrogen peroxide.

Sintered Product

Background: Industries such as thermal power plants use coal as a source of energy and release the combustion products into the environment. The generation of these wastes is inevitable and thus needed to be reused. In India, coals with high ash content usually between 25 to 45% are used. The refractory bricks that were used earlier in steel industries were mainly based on silica, magnesia, chrome, graphite. In modern days, several other materials were introduced for the manufacturing of refractory bricks such as mullite, chrome-magnesite, zircon, fused cast, and corundum. The materials selection for refractory brick manufacturing depends on various factors such as the type of furnace and working conditions. Objectives: The current work aims to focus on the fly-ash subjected to spark plasma sintering process with a maximum temperature of 1500 °C and pressure 60 MPa for 15 minutes and to characterize to observe the properties with respect to their microstructure. Methods: Fly-ash collected from Rourkela Steel Plant was sintered using spark plasma sintering machine at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur. The powder placed in a die was subjected to a heating rate of 600-630 K/min, up to a maximum temperature of 1500˚C. The process took 15 minutes to complete. During the process, the pressure applied was ranging between 50 to 60 Mpa. 5-10 Volts DC supply was given to the machine with a pulse frequency of 30-40 KHz. The sintered product was then hammered out of the die and the small pieces of the sintered product were polished for better characterization. The bricks collected from Hindalco Industries were also hammered into pieces and polished for characterization and comparison. Results: The particles of fly-ash as observed in SEM analysis were spherical in shape with few irregularly shaped particles. The sintered fly-ash sample revealed grey and white coloured patches distributed around a black background. These were identified to be the intermetallic compounds that were formed due to the dissociation of compounds present in fly-ash. High- temperature microscopy analysis of the sintered sample revealed the initial deformation temperature (IDT) of the fly-ash brick and the refractory brick which were found to be 1298 °C and 1543 °C, respectively. The maximum hardness value observed for the sintered fly-ash sample was 450 Hv (4.413 GPa) which is due to the formation of nano-grains as given in the microstructure. The reason behind such poor hardness value might be the absence of any binder. For the refractory brick, the maximum hardness observed was 3400 Hv (33.34 GPa). Wear depth for the sintered fly-ash was found to be 451 μm whereas for the refractory brick sample it was 18 μm. Conclusion: The fly-ash powder subjected to spark plasma sintering resulted in the breaking up of cenospheres present in the fly ash due to the formation of intermetallic compounds, such as Cristobalite, syn (SiO2), Aluminium Titanium (Al2Ti), Magnesium Silicon (Mg2Si), Maghemite (Fe2O3), Chromium Titanium (Cr2Ti) and Magnesium Titanium (Mg2Ti), which were responsible for the hardness achieved in the sample. A large difference in the maximum hardness values of sintered fly-ash and refractory brick was observed due to the hard nitride phases present in the refractory brick.

: The presence of relatively high naphthenic acid in crude oil may contribute to the major corrosion in oil pipelines and distillation units in crude oil refineries. Thus, high concentration Naphthenic Acids crude oil is considered tobe of low quality and is marketed at lower prices. In order to overcome this problem, neutralization method had been developed to reduce the TAN value in crude oil. In this study, crude oil from Petronas Penapisan Melaka was investigated. The parameters studied were reagent concentration, catalyst loading, calcination temperature and reusability of the potential catalyst. Basic chemical used were 2- methylimidazole in polyethylene glycol (PEG 600) with concentration 100, 500 and 1000 ppm. Cerium oxide-based catalysts supported onto alumina prepared with different calcination temperatures. The catalyst was characterized by using Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Thermogravimetry Analysis-Differential Thermal Gravity (TGA-DTG) to study physical properties of the catalyst. The Ce/Al2O3 catalyst calcined at 1000°C was the best catalyst due to larger surface area formation which lead to increment of active sites thus will boost the catalytic activity. The result showed that the Ce/Al2O3 catalyst meet Petronas requirement as the TAN value reduced to 0.6 mgKOH/g from original TAN value of 4.22 mgKOH/g. The best reduction of TAN was achieved by using catalyst loading of 0.39% and reagent of 1000 ppm.
