The noncatalytic oxidative desulfurization process of straight-run kerosene and diesel fractions with high sulfur contents due to their treatment with air without using expensive catalysts and strong oxidants is considered. The research was carried out in a periodic mode in a bubble-type reactor with a volume of 1 × 10 m under the following conditions: 180-200 °C; 2.5-3.0 MPa; the process lasted for 20-30 min; the air/raw material ratio was 1.6-2.2 m/min per 1 m of raw material. The process can be used to obtain industrial jet fuels and diesel fuel components with good lubricating properties. The possibility and expediency of carrying out the process in the presence of water have been studied. The ratio of water/raw materials (vol.) varied from 0:1 to 2:1. It was proven that the water presence in the reaction medium has a positive effect on the studied process and decreases the oxidation intensity of hydrocarbon medium by 2-4 times. This is due to both the slowing of oxidation reactions by water during peroxide decomposition and chain growth and branching and the partial change in chemical oxidation with the formation of phenols and/or tertiary alcohols, which are inhibitors of oxidation reactions. On the other hand, water has almost no effect on the removal degree of sulfur compounds.

Cocombustion with biomass tar is a potential method for NO reduction during fossil fuel combustion. In this work, the molecular dynamic method based on the reactive force field was used to study the NO reduction by phenol, which is a typical tar model compound. Results indicate that phenol undergoes significant decomposition at 3000 K, resulting in the formation of small molecular fragments accompanied by the generation of large molecular, network-structured soot particles.

Article Synopsis
  • Norfloxacin was ozonized in clay suspensions to study its toxicity on Lemna minor, which helps assess antibiotic impact in environments with clay.
  • The study found that norfloxacin causes toxicity in Lemna minor through oxidative stress, worsened by ozonation, affecting growth and chlorophyll levels.
  • Results indicate that the type of clay catalyst and the oxidation process influence the toxicity outcomes, revealing the potential formation of more harmful byproducts from the antibiotic.

Red-light absorbing photoredox catalysts offer potential advantages for large-scale reactions, expanding the range of usable substrates and facilitating bio-orthogonal applications. While many red-light absorbing/emitting fluorophores have been developed recently, functional red-light absorbing photoredox catalysts are scarce. Many photoredox catalysts rely on long-lived triplet excited states (triplets), which can efficiently engage in single electron transfer (SET) reactions with substrates.
