Highly active Ni-promoted mesostructured silica nanoparticles for CO2 methanation

TL;DR: In this paper, mesostructured silica nanoparticles (MSN) and Ni loaded onto MSN (Ni/MSN) for the methanation of CO2 were prepared by the sol-gel and impregnation methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

The crucial roles of inflammatory mediators in inflammation: A review.

TL;DR: This review discusses the role of the inflammatory cells as well as their by-products in the mediation of inflammatory process and the addition of newest and current issues pertaining to this phenomenon.
Journal ArticleDOI

Waste ostrich- and chicken-eggshells as heterogeneous base catalyst for biodiesel production from used cooking oil: Catalyst characterization and biodiesel yield performance

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of CaO catalyst derived from both waste calcined ostrich and the conventional chicken-eggshell was compared to find the optimum conditions for biodiesel production, and the prepared catalysts were then characterized by using XRD, FT-IR, BET, SEM, TGA and CO2-TPD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biochar production from waste rubber-wood-sawdust and its potential use in C sequestration: Chemical and physical characterization

TL;DR: In this article, a biochar was produced from waste rubber-wood-sawdust and the produced biochars were characterized by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) gas porosimetry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).
Journal ArticleDOI

Calcium-based mixed oxide catalysts for methanolysis of Jatropha curcas oil to biodiesel.

TL;DR: In this paper, CaMgO and CaZnO were used for the transesterification of Jatropha curcas oil (JCO) with methanol, in order to evaluate their potential as heterogeneous catalysts for biodiesel production.
