A selected number of tetradentate N2Py2 ligand-supported ReO2+ complexes and a monodentate pyridine-supported ReO2+ complex have been investigated as catalysts for the deoxydehydration (DODH) of diols and polyols. In situ 1H NMR experiments showed that these N-donor ligand-supported ReO2+ complexes are only the pre-catalyst of the DODH reaction. Treatment of (N2Py2) ReO2+ with an excess amount of water generates an active species for DODH catalysis; use of the Re-product of this reaction shows a much shorter induction period compared to the pristine complex. No ligand is coordinated to the “water-treated” complex indicating that the real catalyst is formed after ligand dissociation. IR analysis suggested this catalyst to be a rhenium-oxide/hydroxide oligomer. The monodentate pyridine ligand is much easier to dissociate from the metal center than a tetradentate N2Py2 ligand, which makes the Py4ReO2+-initiated DODH reaction more efficient. For the Py4ReO2+-initiated DODH of diols and biomass-based polyols, both PPh3 and 3-pentanol could be used as a reductant. Excellent olefin yields are achieved.

The cathodic behavior of Ce3+ ions in LiF-NaF-BaF2, LiF-NaF-NaCl and NaCl-KCl molten salts at 730� C has been studied using different electrochemical techniques. The decomposition potential (Ed) and the cathodic overvoltage were determined by introducing NaCeF4 as electrochemical active species using steady-state potential-current curves recorded under galvanostatic conditions. The values of |Ed| were 1.85 V in LiF-NaF-BaF2, 2.114 V in LiF-NaF-NaCl and 2.538 V in NaCl-KCl, respectively. It was also found that the ohmic drop potential in melt is not dependent on NaCeF4 concentration and it rises as the current intensity increases. The Tafel slopes and other kinetic parameters were calculated on the assumption that the cathodic process consisted of direct discharge of Ce3+, with no solvent-solute interaction. In order to elucidate the mechanisn of cathodic process the cyclic voltammetry technique was finally used. From the evolution of the voltammograms we conclude that the electrochemical reduction of Ce3+ ion is actually a reversible process on the molybdenum electrode and cathodic reduction of Ce3+ takes place in one single step involving three electron exchange. Our study adds to the accumulating data and confirms available results of electrodeposition of metalic cerium from molten salts using NaCeF4 as solute.

This paper focuses on the valorisation of solid residues obtained from the thermal treatment of sewage sludge. In particular, sewage sludge samples were collected from two waste water treatment plants (WWTPs) with different sludge line basic operations. After drying, sludges were heated up to 700 °C in appropriate ovens under diluted air (gasification) and inert (pyrolysis) atmospheres. The solids obtained, as well as the dried (raw) sludges, were characterised to determine their textural properties and chemical composition, including the speciation of their inorganic fraction. All the materials under study were employed as adsorbents/catalysts in H2S removal experiments at room temperature. It was found that, depending on the particular sludge characteristics, outstanding results can be achieved both in terms of retention capacities and selectivity. Some of the solids outperform commercially available sorbents specially designed for gaseous emissions control. In these adsorbents/catalysts, H2S is selectively oxidised to elemental sulphur most likely due to the presence of inorganic, catalytically active species. The role of the carbon-enriched part on these solids is also remarked.

Generation of hydroxyl radicals, one of the major active species in ozonation of water was directly observed with a spin-trapping/electron spin resonance (ESR) technique using 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolineN-oxide (DMPO) as a spin-trapping reagent. Hydroxyl radical were trapped with DMPO as a stable radical, DMPO-OH. Eighty μM of ozone produced 1.08 X 10-6M of DMPO-OH, indicating that 1.4% of •OH is trapped with DMPO. Generation rate of DMPO-OH was determined by ESR/stopped-flow measurement. Phenol derivatives increased the amount and generation rate of DMPO-OH, indicating that phenol derivatives enhance •OH generation during ozonation of water. Ozonation of 2,3-, 2,5-, 2,6-dichlorophenol gave an ESR spectra of triplet lines whose peak height ratio were 1:2:1. ESR parameters of the triplet lines agreed with those of the corresponding dichloro-psemiquinone radical. Ozonation of 2,4,5- and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol gave the same spectra as those of 2,5- and 2,6-dichlorophenol, respectively, indicating that a chlorine group in p-position is substituted with a hydroxy group during ozonation. Amounts of the radical increased in an ozone-concentration dependent manner and were inhibited by addition of hydroxyl radical scavengers. These results suggest that p-semiquinone radicals are generated from the chlorophenols by hydroxyl radicals during ozonation. The p-semiquinone radicals were at least partly responsible for enhancements of DMPO-OH generation.
