Combustión catalítica de compuestos orgánicos volátiles clorados

The combustion of chlorinated volatil organic compounds (VOCs) over the perovskites LaFeO3 and La0.9MnO3 catalysts were investigated by employing a monolithic reactor. The two catalysts were individuated from a preliminary screening to test the stability and the influence of nonstoichiometry; a dip coating technique for supporting powder catalyst; was developed and the prepared catalysts were tested in a monolithic reactor. It was studied the catalytic activity of different loadings of perovskite supported on the monolith and was compared the highest loadings with a commercial catalyst, the perovskites resulted efficient catalysts for combustion of aromatic and chlorinated VOCs.

Algunas aplicaciones de los plásticos en las industrias del empaque y automotriz

The role of plastic materials in the packaging and automotive industries is commented. Specific applications such as poly(ethylene-terephtalate) as gas barrier on the soft-drink bottle industry and low density polyethylene on the flexible packaging industry are presented. The use of polypropylene, high density polyethylene and polyamides are also mentioned.
