Abstract: The extensive demand for cleaner environment is forcing chemical industry to use less hazardous materials. In this regard, heteropolyacids attracted considerable amount of interest due to the less toxic behavior in addition of... more
Abstract—People today are increasingly health conscious and therefore shopkeepers tend to dispose of fatty chicken and pork skin. Chicken and pork skins thus are sources of solid waste that are usually not utilized. This paper deals with... more
ABSTRACT Stable, active, and highly selective bifunctional Ni/Al-MCM-41 catalysts were developed for the one-pot synthesis of menthols from citral. The liquid-phase hydrogenation of citral to citronellal was studied on silica-supported... more
The potential eco-toxicity of nanosized titanium dioxide (TiO2), silicon dioxide (SiO2), and zinc oxide (ZnO) water suspensions was investigated using Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis and Gram-negative Escherichia coli as test organisms.... more
This review focuses on the importance of coupling of catalytic reactions which involves dehydrogenation and hydrogenation simultaneously and the study of catalytic materials that are designed, adopted and/or modified for these reactions.... more
Fructone (2-methyl-2-ethylacetoacetate-1, 3-dioxolane), a flavouring material, has been synthesized from ethyl acetoacetate and glycol using five water-soluble Brønsted acid ionic liquids as catalysts for the first time. The used Brønsted... more
