Journal ArticleDOI

A parametric study of layered bed PSA for hydrogen purification

TL;DR: In this article, a complete mathematical model that describes the dynamic behaviour of a PSA unit is presented, which is applied in the study of both single column and four columns PSA processes with layered activated carbon/zeolite beds and with an eight steps cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) over TiO2-coated cellulose acetate monolithic structures using solar light

TL;DR: In this article, a tubular photoreactor packed with cellulose acetate monolithic (CAM) structures coated with TiO2-P25 thin films by a simple dip coating method and irradiated by simulated or natural solar light was used for the photoreduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III), using citric acid as a hole scavenger.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling strategies for enantiomers separation by SMB chromatography

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the simulated moving bed model (SMB) and the true moving bed approach (TMB) in terms of steady-state performance, internal concentration profiles, and transient behavior of the extract and raffinate purities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Laccase immobilization over multi-walled carbon nanotubes: Kinetic, thermodynamic and stability studies

TL;DR: Immobilized laccase maintained (or even increased) its catalytic performance up to nine cycles of utilization and revealed long-term storage stability and changes in ΔS and ΔH of deactivation were found for the immobilized enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

Suitability of Cu-BTC extrudates for propane-propylene separation by adsorption processes

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential of a MOF porous material, Cu-BTC, in combination with cyclic adsorption processes (vacuum swing adaption, VSA, and simulated moving bed, SMB) for the separation of propylene/propane mixture was investigated.
