Control processes chelating agents

Three features of chelation chemistry are fundamental to most of the appHcations of the chelating agents. The first and probably the most extensively used feature is the control of free metal ion concentration by means of the binding—dissociation equiUbria. The second, often called the preparative feature, is that in which the special properties of the chelate itself provide the basis of the appHcation. The third feature comprises displacement reactions metal by other metal ions, chelant by chelant, and chelant by other ligands or ions. An appHcation may be termed defensive if an undesirable property in a process or product is mitigated, or aggressive if a new and beneficial property is induced. 

Either particulate sol or polymeric sol has been used for thin film coatings. The polymeric sol was fabricated by partial hydrolysis of corresponding metal alkoxide. If the rate of hydrolysis or condensation is very fast, then some kinds of organic acids, beta-dicarbonyls, and alkanolamines have been used as chelating agent in sol-gel processes to control the extent and direction of the hydrolysis-condensation reaction by forming a strong complex with alkoxide.

The book focuses on three main themes catalyst preparation and activation, reaction mechanism, and process-related topics. A panel of expert contributors discusses synthesis of catalysts, carbon nanomaterials, nitric oxide calcinations, the influence of carbon, catalytic performance issues, chelating agents, and Cu and alkali promoters. They also explore Co/silica catalysts, thermodynamic control, the Two Alpha model, co-feeding experiments, internal diffusion limitations. Fe-LTFT selectivity, and the effect of co-fed water. Lastly, the book examines cross-flow filtration, kinetic studies, reduction of CO emissions, syncrude, and low-temperature water-gas shift.
