Previous issue date: 2008 / Resumo: Os processos industriais são geradores de uma ampla variedade de contaminantes que estão presentes nas águas residuarias. A seleção de processos de tratamento baseia-se nas características do efluente a ser tratado. Neste trabalho investigou-se um efluente tóxico da fabricação de resinas de poliéster. Existem poucas informações na literatura sobre este tipo de água residuaria. Procedeu-se a caracterização do efluente, efetuando-se a avaliação e identificação de constituintes tóxicos presentes no mesmo por meio de uma abordagem orientada por toxicidade. Foi utilizado bioensaio respirometrico em lodo ativado para avaliar a toxicidade do efluente bruto. Então, foram efetuados tratamentos físicos e químicos para fracionamento do efluente, e apos cada um deles, realizou-se o mesmo bioensaio. Dessa maneira, avaliou-se qual técnica de fracionamento foi a mais efetiva na redução da toxicidade. A maior redução de toxicidade foi observada apos o fracionamento do efluente por arraste com ar em pH 11 (62,5 %). Este resultado demonstrou que uma fração significativa da toxicidade do efluente para lodos ativados era causada por compostos orgânicos volatilizados em pH 11. Isso indica que o tratamento do efluente por arraste com ar em pH básico pode ter impacto positivo em um tratamento biológico aeróbio subseqüente. Uma vez determinado o tipo de compostos no efluente que provocam efeitos tóxicos (Compostos Organicos Volateis - COVs), procedeu-se a esforços analíticos visando a identificação dos mesmos. Analises por headspace do efluente por cromatografia gasosa e espectrometria de massa identificaram a presença de aldeidos insaturados (congeneres de acroleina). Tais compostos tinham relacao direta com o efeito tóxico observado. Foram também realizados bioensaios utilizando microrganismos anaerobios. Para tanto, mediu-se o volume de gas produzido por uma biomassa anaerobia em contato com o efluente bruto e com o efluente fracionado por arraste com ar em pH 11. Não se observou redução na toxicidade do efluente mesmo com este fracionamento. Comparando-se esses resultados aos obtidos com lodo ativados, foi verificado que os compostos removidos por arraste com ar em pH 11 não apresentaram o mesmo grau de toxicidade para esta biomassa anaerobia. Tais resultados indicam que a utilização de processo de tratamento biológico anaerobio seria uma opção adequada para a condução de futuros estudos de tratabilidade deste efluente. Os resultados obtidos neste trabalho de avaliação e identificação de toxicidade em efluente da fabricação de resinas de poliéster ratificam a abordagem utilizada como uma valorosa ferramenta na caracterização de efluentes industriais tóxicos, principalmente nos casos onde não se encontram disponíveis informações especificas relacionadas ao efluente estudado / Abstract: Industrial processes generate a vast range of contaminants that are present in wastewaters. Treatment process selection is based on wastewater characteristics. In this work a toxic polyester resin manufacturing wastewater was investigated. Specific literature on this kind of wastewater is rare. The characterization of this wastewater was conducted, evaluating and identifying toxicity by applying a toxicity-oriented approach. An activated sludge respirometric bioassay was used to assess effluent toxicity. Then, physical and chemical treatments were performed for effluent fractionation. After each fractionation, the same bioassay was conducted. In this way, it was assessed which fractionation technique was the most effective in reducing effluent toxicity. The greater toxicity reduction was observed after effluent fractionation with air stripping in pH 11 (62.5 %). This result showed that a significant fraction of wastewater toxicity for activated sludge was caused by organic compounds volatilized in pH 11. This indicates that effluent treatment by air stripping in basic pH could have a positive impact in a conjugated aerobic biological treatment. Once the type of compounds causing wastewater toxicity has been determined (Volatile Organic Compounds ¿ VOCs), analytical efforts aiming the identification of these compounds were made. Wastewater headspace gas chromatographic analyses coupled with mass spectrometry identificated the presence of a,ß-unsaturated aldehydes (acrolein congeners). These compounds were directly related to the observed toxic effect. Bioassays using anaerobic microorganisms were also conducted. To that purpose, the volume of gas produced by an anaerobic biomass in contact with the baseline effluent and with the fractionated effluent by air stripping in pH 11 was measured. No toxicity reduction was observed with this fractionation. By comparing this result with the one obtained with the respirometric bioassay, it was found that the compounds removed by air stripping in pH 11 did not inhibit this kind of biomass in the same degree which they inhibited activated sludge. This indicates that the use of an anaerobic treatment process would be an adequate option for conducting future treatability studies in this wastewater. The results obtained in this research of toxicity identification evaluation of a polyester resin manufacturing effluent confirm that the toxicity-oriented approach is a valuable tool for the characterization of toxic industrial wastewaters, especially in cases when specific information related to the studied wastewater is lacking / Doutorado / Doutor em Ciência de Alimentos

N-Heterocyclic carbene containing element organic frameworks as heterogeneous organocatalystsRose, Marcus, Notzon, Andreas, Heitbaum, Maja, Nickerl, Georg, Paasch, Silvia, Brunner, Eike, Glorius, Frank, Kaskel, Stefan 31 March 2014 (has links) (PDF)
A bifunctional imidazolium linker was used for the production of highly crosslinked element organic frameworks by Suzuki-coupling with tetrafunctional boronic acids. The resulting porous materials are good heterogeneous organocatalysts in the N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed conjugated umpolung of α,β-unsaturated cinnamaldehyde. / Dieser Beitrag ist mit Zustimmung des Rechteinhabers aufgrund einer (DFG-geförderten) Allianz- bzw.

Selectivity in hydrogenation of alpha, beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds on model palladium catalystsDostert, Karl-Heinz 17 December 2015 (has links)
Die Umsetzung von alpha,beta-ungesättigten Aldehyden und Ketonen mit Wasserstoff über Pd-Modellkatalysatoren wurde anhand von Molekularstrahlmethoden, kombiniert mit Infrarot-Reflexions-Absorptions-Spektroskopie (IRAS), Quadrupol-Massenspektrometrie (QMS) und Röntgen-Nahkanten-Absorptions-Spektroskopie (NEXAFS), unter wohldefinierten Ultrahochvakuumbedingungen untersucht. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit war es, ein atomistisches Verständnis der strukturellen Faktoren zu gewinnen, die die Aktivität und Selektivität eines Pd(111)-Einkristalls und Eisenoxid-geträgerter Pd-Nanopartikel für die Hydrierung der C=C- und C=O-Bindungen bestimmen. Exemplarisch für diese Art von Kohlenwasserstoffen wurden das Aldehyd Acrolein und das Keton Isophoron gewählt. Die NEXAFS- und IRAS-Studien zeigten, dass Isophoron bei niedrigen Bedeckungen auf Pd(111) in einer flachliegenden Geometrie adsorbiert wird. Die Neigungswinkel der C=C- und C=O-Bindungen in Bezug auf die Pd(111)-Ebene nehmen mit zunehmender Oberflächenbedeckung zu. Auf reinem Pd(111) ist die Neigung der C=C-Bindung stärker ausgeprägt, was auf eine Verzerrung des konjugierten pi-Systems hindeutet. Bei Anwesenheit von Wasserstoff wird eine schwächere Bindung von Isophoron an Pd beobachtet. Die selektive partielle Hydrierung über einer Pd(111)-Oberfläche und geträgerten Pd-Nanopartikeln unterschiedlicher Größen wurde unter Verwendung von Acrolein untersucht. Molekularstrahlmethoden wurden mit IRAS- und QMS-Messungen kombiniert, um gleichzeitig die Bildung von Adsorbaten auf der Oberfläche und die der Produkte in der Gasphase verfolgen zu können. Über einem Pd(111)-Kristall wird Propenol mit nahezu 100% Selektivität durch Hydrierung der C=O-Gruppe gebildet, während über Pd-Partikeln Propanal durch selektive Hydrierung der C=C-Gruppe erzeugt wird. IRAS-Untersuchungen zeigten, dass die Propenol-Bildung eine Modifikation der Pd(111)-Oberfläche mit einer dichten Oxopropyl-Monolage voraussetzt. / The conversion of alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones with hydrogen over model Pd catalysts was investigated using molecular beam techniques combined with infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (IRAS), quadrupole mass spectrometry (QMS), and near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) studies under well-defined ultra-high vacuum conditions. The aim of this work was to gain atomistic-level understanding of structural factors governing the selectivity and activity of a Pd(111) single crystal and iron-oxide-supported Pd nanoparticles for C=C and C=O bond hydrogenation. The ketone isophorone and the aldehyde acrolein were chosen as prototypical alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. NEXAFS and IRAS studies showed that isophorone is adsorbed on Pd(111) in a flat-lying geometry at low coverages. With increasing coverage, both C=C and C=O bonds tilt with respect to the surface plane. The tilting is more pronounced for the C=C bond on pristine Pd(111), indicating a strong distortion of the conjugated pi system upon interaction with Pd. Co-adsorbed hydrogen leads to a conservation of the in-plane geometry of the conjugated pi system, pointing to a much weaker interaction of isophorone with Pd in the presence of hydrogen. The selective partial hydrogenation over a Pd(111) surface and supported Pd nanoparticles with different particle sizes was investigated using acrolein. Molecular beam techniques were combined with IRAS and QMS measurements in order to simultaneously monitor the evolution of surface species and the formation of the final gas-phase products. Over a Pd(111) single crystal, acrolein is hydrogenated at the C=O bond to form propenol with nearly 100% selectivity, while over supported Pd particles, selective conversion of the C=C bond to propanal occurs. IRAS investigations showed that a distinct modification of the Pd(111) surface with a dense overlayer of an oxopropyl species is required for propenol formation.

Role of adsorption in catalysis : applications of NMR relaxometryArias Vecino, Pablo January 2015 (has links)
The work described in this thesis focuses on the effects that adsorption processes on catalytic surfaces pose in controlling key steps that can affect and control reaction pathways. To that, the development of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) relaxometry methods and the comparison with traditional catalytic was performed with a series of C5 and C6 unsaturated hydrocarbons on two different alumina supports, γ- and θ-Al2O3. The developed techniques were applied in the study of liquid phase selective hydrogenation of citral on 5% Pt/SiO2. Infrared (IR) spectroscopy, volumetric adsorption isotherms, dynamic isotherms via a Tapered Element Oscillating Microbalance (TEOM), temperature programmed desorption (TPD) as well as 13C T1 NMR and 1H 2D T1-T2 relaxometry methods were employed. Energies of adsorption as a function of coverage were obtained via adsorption isotherms and the particular surface adsorbate interactions were described with IR spectroscopy. For example, 1-pentyne showed the strongest interaction with the alumina (94 kJ mol-1) while 1-pentene presented a weaker interaction (46 kJ mol-1) on θ-Al2O3. Desorption energies obtained from TPD ranged 85 – 130 kJ mol-1, irrespective of the adsorbate. Reactivity of the aluminas was captured with TPD, TEOM and NMR relaxometry. Interaction of adsorbates with hydrocarbon occurred predominantly on weak adsorption sites. 13C NMR T1 relaxometry provided in addition atom-specific adsorbate-adsorbent interaction strengths, showing the molecular geometry of adsorption, and applied in co adsorption measurements. The selective hydrogenation of citral as a model α,β-unsaturated aldehyde and the effect of different solvents on the activity and product distribution was studied at 298 and 373 K. A series of polar protic, polar aprotic and non polar solvents was investigated. Results showed higher initial reaction rates in non polar solvents but higher selectivities towards desired products on polar protic solvents. Solvent used also affected by product formation. The strong variations in reaction rates and selectivities reported were related with adsorbate catalyst interactions, as well as solvent reactant interactions. For example, adsorption isotherms showed that ethanol notably reduced the adsorption capacity of citral as compared with hexane, related with the rate differences observed. ATR-IR measurements indicated solvent citral interactions were solely present in polar protic solvents in line with higher yields of geraniol and nerol. Finally, 13C T1 NMR and 1H 2D T1-T2 correlation experiments determined that the geometry of adsorption of citral, influenced by solvent, affected product selectivity, and that product adsorption affected selectivity and deactivation.
