Introduction A series of Cu-montmorillonite clay composites (MtCs), prepared through cation exchange and wet impregnation with varying amounts of copper, have been tested for the direct oxidation of methane to methanol. Methods The catalysts have been characterized using several analytical techniques, including surface area BET, X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Mi Read More

Background At present, natural gas and crude oil are significant for the national economy, and their safe transportation is crucial. The integrity of pipelines is the key to ensuring this goal. Objective We take X100 pipeline as the research object and use ANSYS software to complete finite element simulations of three types of pipeline models: double external defect, double internal defect and double internal and external d Read More

Introduction Background The use of various dyes to colour products is a general practice in various industries. The occurrence of these dyes in water, even at small concentrations, is highly noticeable and aesthetically objectionable. In the present study, the applicability of inexpensive and eco-friendly bio-adsorbent has been tested as an alternative substitution of the commercially available activated carbon for the removal Read More
