The effect of Ca/Mg/Zn mixing ratio on the research octane number of bio-gasoline during basic soap pyrolysis.

Pyrolysis is one of the available technologies to convert oleic basic soap into gasoline-compatible fuel. In this research, the process mentioned was applied using the mixture of Ca, Mg, Zn in the production of oleic basic soap. The reactions were carried out in a batch glass reactor at atmospheric pressure at the temperature of 450 °C.

The promising performance of manganese gluconate as a liquid redox sulfur recovery agent against oxidative degradation.

This work studied the oxidative degradation performance of manganese gluconate as a liquid redox sulfur recovery (LRSR) agent. The degradation of gluconate in an aerated sulfide containing 0.1 M manganese/0.

A method to control terpineol production from turpentine by acid catalysts mixing.

Terpineol, a promising valorisation product of pine industry, is widely used as an active ingredient for disinfectant soap, cleansers, perfumes, and pharmaceutical purposes. Synthesis of terpineol is generally carried out by separation of α-pinene compounds from crude turpentine through fractionation and then hydrated (addition of water) with the help of acid catalysts. However, direct turpentine hydration without pre-fractionation process can be more beneficial from economic and process point of views.

Manganese gluconate, A greener and more degradation resistant agent for HS oxidation using liquid redox sulfur recovery process.

Iron chelate liquid redox sulfur recovery (LRSR) has been one of the most frequently recommended technologies for the oxidation of HS in natural gas into elemental sulfur, particularly when the acid gas has a high CO/HS molar ratio. The process is however known to suffer from extensive oxidative ligand degradation that results in high operational costs. Moreover, poor biodegradability or toxicity of the existing ligand has become a concern.
