Crown ether 18C6 was used as a phase transfer catalyst (PTC) for the interfacial polymerization of polypyrrole (PPy). Usually, in interfacial reacting system, oxidant FeCl3was dissolved in deionized water to form aqueous phase, while pyrrole was dissolved in chloroform to form organic phase. The 18C6 PTC can efficiently form complexes with Fe (III) and transfer Fe (III) from aqueous phase into organic phase, resulting in nanoscale hollow-bubbly PPy with better electronic properties. UV-vis was used to confirm the phase transfer ability of composed Fe (III). Cyclic Voltammograms (CVs) were used to characterize capacitance property of PPy. Fourier Transition Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and Scanning Electronic Microscopy (SEM) were carried out to investigate the microstructure of PPy. Finally, defect control migration growth mechanism of PPy during the polymerization has been carefully discussed.

In the present study a two dimensional model is first developed to show the behaviour of dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPL) within a rough fracture. To consider the rough fracture, the fracture is imposed with variable apertures along its plane. It is found that DNAPL follows preferential pathways. In next part of the study the above model is further extended for non-isothermal DNAPL flow and DNAPL-water interphase mass transfer phenomenon. These two models are then coupled with joint deformation due to normal stresses. The primary focus of these models is specifically to elucidate the influence of joint alteration due to external stress and fluid pressures on flow driven energy transport and interphase mass transfer. For this, it is assumed that the critical value for joint alteration is associated with external stress and average of water and DNAPL pressures in multiphase system and the temporal and spatial evolution of joint alteration are determined for its further influence on energy transport and miscible phase transfer. The developed model has been studied to show the influence of deformation on DNAPL flow. Further this preliminary study demonstrates the influence of joint deformation on heat transport and phase miscibility via multiphase flow velocities. It is seen that the temperature profile changes and shows higher diffusivity due to deformation and although the interphase miscibility value decreases but the lateral dispersion increases to a considerably higher extent.

In the present work, microwave heat pretreatment of jatropha curcas seed particles and use of phase transfer catalyst (PTC) to enhance in-situ transesterification were utilized together. It was observed that use of alkaline BTMAOH as a PTC and microwave heat pretreatment of jatropha curcas seed particles had substantially increased the reaction rate of in-situ transesterification as compared to the reaction conducted with microwave untreated seeds in the absence of BTMAOH as a PTC. Statistical model equation was developed to investigate the interaction effect of reaction variables and establish optimum reaction condition. At optimum condition, experimentally obtained FAME yield (93.7±1.53% w/w) was in close agreement with statistical model predicted FAME yield (96.75%) at 38°C and 37 minutes of reaction time.
