Chlorophenol dehalogenation in a magnetically stabilized fluidized bed reactor

Ex-Situ Remediation Technologies for Environmental Pollutants: A Critical Perspective

“…Cupples et al ( 2005 ) demonstrated that Desulfutobacterium chlororespirans could dehalogenate bromoxynil-like brominated herbicide and its metabolite. Graham et al ( 2006 ) achieved more than 90 % degradation of chlorophenols using magnetically-stabilized fl uidized-bed reactor composed of Fe/Pd media in polluted solid slurry under a nitrogen purge at pH 5.8.…”

A Highly Active Pd on Ni–B Bimetallic Catalyst for Liquid-Phase Hydrodechlorination of 4-Chlorophenol Under Mild Conditions

“…Some chlorinated solvents such as trichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, and trichloroethane are widely used in industrial processes, and a large quantity of reaction intermediates like those that chlorophenols are generated in the production of pesticides, herbicide, disinfector, and dyestuff [3,4]. These chlorinated organics have made very severe pollution to the environment.…”

“…Plenty of methods have been developed for the elimination of chlorinated organics: incineration, reduction dechlorination [5,6], oxidation dechlorination [7][8][9][10], biodegradation, photochemical catalysis, and catalytic HDC [4,11,12]. From an economical and environmental point of view, HDC is the most effective and promising method, which could avoid the formation of more toxic compounds such as dioxins, phosgene, and chlorine.…”

Preparation and characterization of nickel-modified carbon cryogel beads with uniform particle size

“…In various chemical processes for energy production or environmental protection, catalysts or adsorbents are often packed in a fixed-bed reactor or a column [21][22][23][24]. Monodisperse carbon gel beads are favorable as packing materials for fixed-bed reactors or fluidized-bed reactors to increase the mechanical strength and facilitate process design.…”
