        Vapor-phase methylation of toluene using methanol and its isopropylation with 2-propanol has been investigated ina down flow reactor under atmospheric conditions using N2 carrier over a series of surface modified andunmodified ZSM-5 (Si/Al= 60-170) loaded with H3PO4, differing in the external surface treatment of the zeolites.The feed molar ratios of toluene/methanol and toluene/2-propanol were varied over a wide range (8-0.125), andthe optimum feed ratio of toluene/alcohol was less than 0.5 in both cases. Space velocity employed in toluenemethylation reported as WHSV (toluene) = 1.2114, and the space velocity employed in toluene isopropylationreported as WHSV (toluene) = 0.8 III. The methylation reactions were carried out in the temperature range of 623-773 K, and the isopropylation reactions were carried out in the temperature range of 483-583 K. Atmosphericpressures was maintained in all runs. Catalysts containing 0-4.9 wt.% P were prepared using modified andunmodified ZSM-5 zeolites, and their catalytic performance for vapor-phase alkylation of toluene with methanoland 2-propanol were investigated. The optimum phosphorous content for methylation was 2.1 wt.% P which wasgreater than the optimum phosphorous loading for isopropylation (0.7 wt.% P) تفاصيل المقالة

        One of the main components of lung alveoli is surfactant. DPPC (Dipalmitolphosphatidylcholine) is thepredominant lipid component in lung surfactant that is responsible for lowering surface tension in alveoli in thisarticle. We used a very approximate model with computational method of Ab initio to describe the interactionsbetween DPPC as important component of lung surfactant and some chemical solvents such as Benzene,Toluene, Heptane, Acetone and Ethanol which cause Lung injuries that contribute to respiratory distress such asARDS. The effect of these solvents on the conformation and disordering DPPC head group has beeninvestigated with calculation at the Hatree-Fock level using the 6-31G basis set with Onsager continuumsalvation, GAIO and frequency models. In concern with conformational energy, Water could be the mostsuitable solvent for DPPC. It could be in polar medium DPPC conformer becomes additionally stabilized byintermolecular ionic and hydrogen bond interactions with polar neighboring molecules. On the other hand, thisstudy shows that Ethanol has the most effect on conformation and lipid disorder DPPC head group of lungsurfactant in our model. تفاصيل المقالة

        A simple andefficient hollow fiber-based method,viz magnetic solvent bar liquid-phasemicroextraction (MSB-LPME) combined with gas chromatography-flame ionization detection (GCFID)has been successfully developed for the trace determination of mononitrotoluenes (MNTs) innatural water samples. The analytes were extracted from sample solution to the organic solventimmobilized in a fiber. Following the extraction, the analyte-adsorbed magnetic solvent bar can beeasily isolated from the sample solution by a magnet which could significantlyfacilitate theoperation as well asreducing the total pretreatment time. The bar was mainly eluted withacetonitrile, evaporated to dryness while the residue was dissolved in toluene and finally injectedinto GC-FID. At first, a series of parameters influencing microextraction performance weresystematically investigated and optimized. The values of the detection limit were in the range of0.05-0.08 μg L-1 and the RSD% for the analysis of 50.0μg L-1 of the analytes was below than 5.8%(n = 6). An acceptable linearity (0.996 ≥ r2 ≥ 0.995) and a broad linear range (0.2-200 μg L-1) wereachieved. The method was eventually employed for the preconcentration and determination of theMNTs in environmental water samples and acceptable results were reached. تفاصيل المقالة

        The existence of different resistant organic pollutants especially toxic organic aromatics such as Toluene in aquatic environments has become a significant environmental matter in recent years. In this paper, α-Fe2O3 Nano-spheres are immobilized on the surface of Manganese Pyrophosphate (Mn2P2O7) support using Forced Hydrolysis and Reflux Condensation (FHRC) method. Products were characterized by FTIR, SEM, BET EDX, and XRD. The photocatalytic activity of α-Fe2O3/Mn2P2O7 was investigated for the removal of Toluene in aqueous solution by UV/H2O2 system. The chemical oxygen demand (COD) measurements were used to determine the amount of Toluene removal. The experiments were designed based on four affecting variables including pH, catalyst content, initial Toluene concentration and H2O2 at three levels using Box-Behnken experimental design. The results of this study showed that α-Fe2O3/Mn2P2O7 as a new photo catalyst has a higher photocatalytic activity than α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles. Based on the achieved results, the maximum degradation efficiency was 97.14% in optimal conditions. تفاصيل المقالة

        The catalytic performance of Ni-Al, Mg-Al, and Co-Ni LDHs as novel nanocatalysts was evaluated in the oxidation of toluene. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The XRD and FTIR approved the structure and functional groups of the LDH, respectively. Also, the presence of cations with different oxidation state confirmed by XRD. According to this result, Mars Van Krevelen (MVK) mechanism was suggested for the combustion of toluene over the LDH nanocatalysts. The SEM results indicated that the nanostructure and layered morphology of the catalysts. All LDHs exhibited catalytic activity for toluene oxidation. T80 (temperature for 80% conversion for toluene) for Co-Ni, Ni-Al and Mg-Al LDH catalysts were 225, 277 and 350 °C, respectively. So, the Co-Ni LDH showed the highest activity. Furthermore, Ni-Al LDH exhibited the highest thermal stability. So, we concluded that Ni-Al LDH is a superior catalyst for toluene oxidation in the studied series. تفاصيل المقالة

        Research works proposed that radical scavenging activity of flavonoids is due to ring B, andthe remaining part of the molecule can be disregarded. Thus the objective of this work is toobserve whether hydroxytoluenes account the radical scavenging activity of flavonoid and toestablish structural requirements for their activity (as they showed appreciable activity) andelucidate a comprehensive mechanism that can explain their activity and termination. Thus, theradical-scavenging activity of nine hydroxytoluene derivatives against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, DPPH was determined. The relative change in energy (ΔHf) associated with theformation of phenolic radicals and the spin distributions in these radicals were determined usingcomputational programs (Density function theory and Hartree Fock). By correlatingexperimental data with ΔHf, the most active compounds and structural features that areresponsible for their activities were identified. Reaction product of 4-methyl catechol with 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, DPPH was isolated and characterized in order to unravel themechanism of termination of most active hydroxytoluenes. Termination enthalpy (ΔH2) ofmethyl-catechols and methyl-hydroquinone, once the termination mechanism explained, wascalculated to understand its role in the radical scavenging activity. تفاصيل المقالة

        Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as benzene, toluene, and xylene are toxic air pollutants which are released into the atmosphere by various human activities such as gasoline production and use, chemical manufacturing and incineration of certain waste. These pollutants are also harmful to the environment, causing harm to plants, aquatic life, and soil quality. Therefore, it is important to implement measures to reduce emissions from these substances. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the air pollutants caused by benzene, toluene, and xylene at Kazakhstan Petrochemical Industries Inc. LLP in 2021–2022. In order to calculate the sample size for this cross-sectional study, the preliminary evaluation findings from a related study that measured the concentration of hydrocarbons in petrochemical facilities were employed. 281 samples were gathered between the winter and summer of 2022. The national institute for occupational safety and health (NIOSH) methods of 1501 was applied to conduct the sampling and analysis of pollutants. The air was sampled using a charcoal tube sampler that was attached to a pump. The chemicals were then extracted using the solvent carbon disulfide (CS2), and samples were then analyzed using a capillary-equipped gas chromatography-mass spectrometer. The collected data were analyzed by SPSS software version 23.0. The findings demonstrated that benzene concentrations in the sampling areas throughout the winter and summer were higher than the recommended value advised by the American conference of governmental industrial hygienists (ACGIH). تفاصيل المقالة
