Metal-free catalysts derived from lignin for efficient wet peroxide oxidation

In this work, a wheat and hemp lignin (Sarkanda, Granit S.A.) has been used as raw material for the development of metal-free activated carbons. These materials were tested in the catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO) of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP; 5 g L-1) during 24 h experiments conducted at relatively mild operating conditions (p = 1 atm, t = 50 °C, pH = 3, catalyst load = 2.5 g L-1 and [H2O2]0 = 17.8 g L-1). First, the lignin was carbonized under N2 atmosphere followed by the activation of the obtained non-porous carbon (LG) under air atmosphere at different temperatures (150 to 350 ºC), leading to the generation of significant porosity.

Evaluation of Horizons, Inc. Th metal powder : progress report no. 1 for February 18, 1954-March 4, 1954 /

Three samples of thorium powder as supplied by Horizons, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio were compared. The powder was processed entirely without the use of protective atmospheres with the exception of the sintering which was performed in a tank argon atmosphere with a dew point of approximately -80°C and the hot-pressing which was carried out in vacuum. The equipment and procedures used for cold-pressing and sintering were identical to those used in the evaluation of Sylvania produced thorium powders. The hot-pressing was done with standard uranium hot-pressing equipment.
