Flow Synthesis

Electrochemical synthesis has been proposed as an efficient method for cost-effective and large-scale production of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). This work investigates the combined electrochemical synthesis with flow synthesis post-treatment for the production of high surface area HKUST-1. The electrochemical synthesis process used in the experimental work did not require additional electrolytes or washing of the synthesis product. Batch electrosynthesis and electrosynthesis with flow synthesis were compared for the quality of the product using Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (EIS). Batch electrosynthesis in 0.01 M benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid (H3BTC) solution produced HKUST-1 with BET surface area of 1550 m2/g which was increased further to 1716 m2/g with post-flow-synthesis treatment. The greatest change in surface area after flow processing was observed when using 0.78 M H3BTC, with corresponding surface areas of 481 m2/g and 1531 m2/g. According to SEM and BET results, the product purity improved during the post-flow-synthesis treatment. The proposed method enables continuous flow synthesis of high-quality MOFs with minimal purification steps.

There is a need to search for efficient material that reduce CO2content and enhance the hydrogen composition in the product gas from biomass steam gasification particularly for large scale production. The present study was carried out to perform the characterization of commercial quicklime as CO2absorbent and Ni powder as catalyst. The chemical composition of the materials perform using x-ray fluorescence (XRF) indicated high amount of CaO and Ni in the bulk samples. Using XRF and SEM analyses, it was found that both materials showed high crystalinity. The adsorption isotherm from physisorption analysis suggested that the materials exhibits Type II category according to the IUPAC classification scheme. These types of material exhibit mesoporous structure which was also verified by the pore size of the samples found via BET analysis. The BET surface area reported was 4.16 m2/g and 0.78 m2/g for quicklime and Ni powder, respectively. In conclusion, commercial quicklime has the potential as CO2absorbent, based on the pore size and surface area. Conversely, the surface properties of the Ni powder were found relatively lower as compared to other commercial catalysts available for biomass steam gasification.

Abstract Bamboo trees are one of the fastest growing trees in tropical rainforests around the world, they have various uses ranging from construction to fly ash generation used in oil and gas cementing, to development of activated carbon which is one of the latest uses of bamboo trees. This paper focuses on development of activated carbon from bamboo trees for carbon capture and sequestration. The need for improved air quality becomes imperative as the SDG Goal 12 and SDG Goal13 implies. One of the major greenhouse gases is CO2 which accounts for over 80% of greenhouse gases in the environment. Eliminating the greenhouse gases without adding another pollutant to the environment is highly sought after in the 21st century. Bamboo trees are mostly seen as agricultural waste with the advent of scaffolding and other support systems being in the construction industry. Instead of burning bamboo trees or using them for cooking in the local communities which in turn generates CO2 and fly ash, an alternative was considered in this research work, which is the usage of bamboo trees to generate activated, moderately porous and high surface area carbon for extracting CO2 from various CO2 discharge sources atmosphere and for water purification. This paper focuses on the quality testing of activated carbon that can effectively absorb CO2. The porosity, pore volume, bulk volume, and BET surface area were measured. The porosity of the activated carbon is 27%, BET surface area as 1260m²/g. Fixed carbon was 11.7%, Volatility 73%, ash content 1.7%.

An Al-supported cage-like mesoporous silica type MCM-41 has been prepared using a simple one-step synthetic procedure using oil shale residue and CTAB(Hexadecyl trimethyl Ammonium Bromide) as the template. The effects of temperature on the porosity, structure and surface area of Al-MCM-41 mesoporous materials were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, N2adsorption desorption, scanning electron micrographs (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The results indicated that temperature was a key to the characteristics of Al-MCM-41 materials, and when the temperature up to 333 K, Al-MCM-41 exhibited excellent characteristics with high degree of order, high surface area and pore volume. The one-step hydrothermal synthesized MCM-41 mesoporous material possessed high BET surface area, high pore size and high pore volume. They are respectively 835.1 m2/g, 32.6 Å and 1.22 cm3/g under the condition of the Si : Al =78:1, pH =10, crystallization temperature was 333K, crystallization time was 48h and calcination at 823 K for 5 h in air. All the results indicated the possibility of using oil shale residue as silicon and aluminum source to produce Al-MCM-41, and gave us a new way to recycle a solid waste. As well as this made it impossible to large-scale production of Al-MCM-41. Keywords: Al-MCM-41 mesoporous materials, oil shale residue, one-step synthesis

Flower-like Co–La oxide micro/nanomaterials have been synthesized via an ethylene-glycol-mediated process, under the condition of that the mole ratio of lanthanum nitrate (La (NO3)3·6H2O) and cobalt nitrate (Co (NO3)2·6H2O) was 1:1 (based on the amount of Co (NO3)2·6H2O 0.002 mol), the dosage of urea was 2.2 g, the dosage of tetra-butyl ammonium bromide (TBAB) was 6.0 g, with magnetic stirring heating under 170 °C for 60 minutes in the 150mL ethylene glycol, the prepared precursors of Co–La oxides have regular flower-like morphology, in addition, the amount of TBAB and urea plays a significant role on the synthesis of the precursors. The flower-like Co–La oxides micro/nanomaterials were prepared after the precursors were calcinated in the muffle furnace at 800 °C for 2 h, the morphology, crystal properties and element distribution of the products were investigated by the analysis of SEM-EDX, XRD and BET, etc. The structures of these products with regular flower-like morphology are on the micrometer scale, which are hierarchically composed of nanosized building blocks, with highly polycrystalline nature, and the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area of 68.5 m2/g. Therefore, those micro/nanomaterials have been developed as promising catalytic materials for their not only keeping the high surface area of nanomaterials, but effectively inhibiting aggregation.
