摘要:
The present invention provides an adsorbent for removing sulfur compounds, which adsorbent can effectively remove a variety of sulfur compounds contained in a hydrocarbon fuel to a low concentration even at room temperature; a process for effectively producing hydrogen that can be used in a fuel cell; and a fuel cell system employing hydrogen produced through the process. The adsorbent for removing a sulfur compound contained in a hydrocarbon fuel contains cerium oxide. The process for producing hydrogen that can be used in a fuel cell includes desulfurizing a hydrocarbon fuel through removal of a sulfur compound contained in the a hydrocarbon fuel by use of the aforementioned adsorbent and, subsequently, bringing the thus-desulfurized fuel into contact with a partial-oxidation reforming catalyst, an authothermal reforming catalyst, or a steam reforming catalyst. The fuel cell system employs hydrogen produced through the process.

The present invention provides porous mineral oxide beads which have large pore volumes and enhanced stability. The beads are based on a tetravalent metal oxide, such as zirconia, titania or hafnia. These highly porous beads are produced from a mixture of tetravalent mineral oxides, mineral pore inducing agents which are oxides or salts of trivalent metals, and optional binders. The porous mineral beads can be filled with a polymer gel and used for adsorption and chromatography applications.
摘要:
A catalyst bed combination comprising a bed of a particulate copper-containing catalyst and, upstream of the catalyst bed, a guard bed in the form of shaped units formed from lead oxide particles and a particulate support material. The guard bed extends the life of the copper catalyst by absorbing halide contaminants in the process stream.

Spiral shaped fibers (Japanese Patent Application 2001-239014) were utilized to prepare completely novel metal oxide nanotubes comprising solely metal oxides. The metal oxide nanotubes comprise solely a hollow cylinder shaped metal oxide which may contain hydroxyl groups constituting a double helix and having hole diameter distributions containing two peak hole diameters ranging from 1 to 2 nm and from 3 to 7 nm. The tubes may be obtained using a process comprising the steps of dissolving compound 1 represented by the chemical formula (chemical formula 1) shown below and compound 2 represented by the chemical formula (chemical formula 1) shown below (in the formula A and B, may be identical or different from each other, represent saccharide radicals, R represents an alkyl group and R' represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group) in water or a mixed solution of water and alcohol and allowing to stand, mixing further a metal oxide precursor, mixing further a catalyst for converting the metal oxide precursor into a metal oxide, and sintering the gel formed in the previous step. The hydrogen adsorption and storage capacity of the metal oxide nanotubes are extremely good.

A high radiation resistant inorganic sorbent is used for the extraction of Mo-99 from the fission byproducts of a uranyl sulfate nuclear-fueled homogeneous-solution nuclear reactor. The sorbent is a composition of hydrated titanium dioxide combined with 5 to 40 mole percent zirconium hydroxide formed into pellets and saturated with an isotope composition of uranium.

摘要:
An exhaust gas purifying catalyst capable of exerting excellent NO x purifying capability even at high exhaust gas temperatures, exceeding 500°C, is provided. The catalyst is an absorption reduction-type NO x purifying catalyst comprising an NO x absorbent obtained by loading at least one alkali metal or alkaline earth metal on a crystalline ZrO 2 composite oxide having added thereto at least one trivalent rare earth metal or divalent alkaline earth metal. Preferably, aluminum is further supported on the ZrO 2 composite oxide. The NO x absorbent is considered to have an NO x absorption mechanism that an electron released from the alkali metal or the like enters into an oxygen vacancy part of the crystalline ZrO 2 and this oxygen vacancy part functions as a strong base site for donating an electron to an electrophilic component such as NO x .
