	abstract = {<p>NiCoMgOx and NiCoMgCeOx on commercial low surface area zirconia-haffnia catalysts have unusually high thermal stability (\&gt;= 2000 degrees C) for syngas generation via the methane partial oxidation process (J. Catal., 233, 36, 2005). Herein we report the results on accelerated sulfur deactivation (0.74 mol\% sulfur in feed) and corresponding regeneration (at 800 degrees C in 1:1 O-2 + N-2 flow) over these catalysts. The NiCoMgCeOx catalyst, due to a larger mobility of lattice oxygen, showed a considerably higher resistance to sulfur poisoning; the higher mobility of the lattice oxygen in case of the NiCoMgCeOx catalyst may be related to the presence of CeO2. During the deactivation process, the selectivity for H-2 was decreased to a much greater extent than that for CO. Regeneration studies showed that even after complete deactivation of the catalysts, the original activity/selectivity of both the catalysts could be completely restored after a simple regeneration process. Based on their exceptionally high thermal stability, high activity/selectivity and easily regenerability, the NiCoMOx, and NiCoMgCeOx catalysts appear to be very promising candidates for the CPOM process.

	abstract = {<p>Zn/Al/Cl anionic clay has been synthesized by co-precipitation method and applied for adsorption of fluoride in aqueous medium. Equilibrium adsorption data were fitted to Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, and Generalized isotherm equations. Thermodynamic parameters like Delta G and Delta H values show the feasibility and exothermic nature of the adsorption process. Influence of solution pH and presence of other anions on fluoride adsorption by the clay has also been studied. Presence of carbonate in water was found to have an adverse effect on fluoride adsorption by the clay. pH(pzc) of the clay has been found to be 8.97. A two-step 1st order kinetic model was used to explain the fluoride adsorption kinetics of the as-synthesized clay. It was possible to regenerate the adsorbent with an aqueous solution of 0.01 M NaOH and the effect of regeneration on fluoride adsorption was reported up to five regeneration cycles.

	abstract = {The work describes process development for detoxification of corncob hydrolysate using activated carbon for microbial xylitol production. Activated carbon was used as an adsorbent to completely remove the major fermentation inhibitors obtained during dilute acid and steam explosion of biomass. A xylitol yield of 0.78 g/g was achieved from the detoxified hydrolysate in a 5 L fermenter by Pichia caribbica. The spent carbon was effectively regenerated and used for three consecutive cycles of operation. The successive regeneration and reuse of carbon could reduce the operational cost by similar to 38\% and be used as a reference dataset for process scale-up and cost-effective xylitol production.},
