The effects of initial concentration of Fe（Ⅱ）, temperature, partial pressure of oxygen, air flow rate and stirring rate on the oxidation rate were investigated. The results show that Fe3O4 formation is composed of two-step reaction, the first step is the formation of Fe（OH）+2 by oxidation of Fe（OH）+ complex ions, the second step is the formation of magnetite by dehydration and deprotonation of Fe（OH）+ and Fe（OH）+2. The oxidation reaction is zero-order with respect to the concentration of Fe（Ⅱ） and around 0.5-order with respect to partial pressure of oxygen, and oxygen transfer process is rate-limiting step of oxidation reaction with apparent activation energy of 2.74 kJ·mol-1.展开更多

Although hydrodesulfurization is the usual method for removing sulfur, the elimination of thiophene compounds using this process is difficult. Photocatalysis is an alternative method being developed for thiophene removal at ambient conditions. Among semiconductors, titania has shown good potential as a photo-catalyst; however, quick recombination of electron holes hinders its commercial use. One way to decrease the recombination rate is to combine carbon nanotubes with a semiconductor. In this work, multiwall carbon nanotube （MWCNT） / titania composites were prepared with different mass ratios of MWCNT to titania using tetraethyl orthotitanate （TEOT） and titanium tetra isopropoxide （TTIP） as precursors of titania. Dibenzothiophene （DBT） photocatalytic removal from n-hexane was measured in both the presence and absence of oxygen. The results indicated that the best removal occurred when the MWCNT to titania ratio was 1. When the ratio exceeded this number, DBT removal efficiency decreased due to light scattering. Also, the composites prepared by TEOT exhibited better efficiency in DBT removal. The research findings suggested that the obtained composite was a visible light active photocatalyst and exhibited better performance in the presence of oxygen. Kinetics of photocatalytic DBT removal was a first-order reaction with removal rate constant 0.7 h–1 obtained at optimum conditions.展开更多
