  • A Kinetic Study of NO Oxidation on Pt/Al2o3 at Conditions Relevant to Industrial Nitric Acid Production
    A kinetic Study of NO Oxidation on Pt/Al2O3 at Conditions Relevant to Industrial Nitric Acid Production Ata ul Rauf Salman1, Bjørn Christian Enger2, Rune Lødeng2, Mohan Menon3, David Waller3, Magnus Rønning1* 1 Department of Chemical Engineering, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Sem Sælands vei 4, NO-7491 Trondheim, Norway; 2 SINTEF Materials and Chemistry, Research group Kinetic and Catalysis, Postbox 4760, Sluppen, N-7465 Trondheim, Norway YARA Technology Center, Hydrovegen 67, N-3936 Porsgrunn, Norway *Corresponding author: [email protected] Highlights Pt/Al2O3 is capable of oxidizing NO at conditions relevant to the Ostwald process. 0.46 0.48 A power rate law of the form r=k[NO] [O2] is established. Approximately 25% of Pt is oxidized to PtO2 during reaction. 1. Introduction Nitric acid is an important industrial chemical, especially in the production of fertilizers. Commercial production of nitric acid takes place via the Ostwald process in which ammonia is oxidized with atmospheric oxygen to produce nitric oxide. Typical concentrations at the exit of the ammonia combustor are NO (10%) and H2O (15%). Nitric oxide is oxidized in a homogeneous gas phase reaction to nitrogen dioxide, which is subsequently dissolved in water to yield nitric acid. [1] Gas phase oxidation of nitric oxide is a 3rd order reaction with a negative dependence on temperature. [2] It is a slow reaction and use of a catalyst for NO oxidation can potentially speed up the process, enable significant heat recovery and reduce CAPEX. Catalytic oxidation of NO has been thoroughly investigated with respect to diesel exhaust treatment at NO concentrations in the range 100-1500 ppm and 0.1-30% O2.

  • European Train Names: a Historic Outline Christian Weyers
    ONOMÀSTICA BIBLIOTECA TÈCNICA DE POLÍTICA LINGÜÍSTICA European Train Names: a Historic Outline* Christian Weyers DOI: 10.2436/15.8040.01.201 Abstract This paper gives a first overview of the onomastic category of train names, searches to classify the corpus and reviews different stages of their productivity. Apart from geographical names (toponyms, choronyms, compass directions) generally indicating points of origin and destination of the trains in question, a considerable number of personal names have entered this category, of classical literary authors, musicians and scientists, but also of many fictional or non-fictional characters taken from literature or legendary traditions. In some cases also certain symbolic attributes of these persons and finally even heraldic figures have given their names to trains. In terms of their functionality, train names originally were an indicator of exclusiveness and high grade of travel quality, but they developed gradually, as they dispersed over the European continent, into a rather unspecific, generalized appellation, also for regional and local trains. After two periods of prosperity after 1950, the privatisation of railway companies starting in the 1990s had again a very positive effect on the category, as the number of named trains initially reached a new record in this decade. ***** The first train names appeared in England in the 1860s in addition to names for steam locomotives, and on two different levels. The Special Scotch Express between London King’s Cross and Edinburgh (inaugurated in 1862) was called by the public The Flying Scotsman from the 1870s, but it succeeded as the official name not before 1924. Also the names of the German diesel trainsets Der Fliegende Hamburger and Der Fliegende Kölner were colloquial name creations, as were the Train Bleu and the Settebello operated from 1922 and 1953 but officially named in 1947 and 1958, respectively.
