The microspherical catalysts also proved to be recyclable with no drop in activity being observed after three successive reactions. The vanadium functionalized fibers were applied in a pseudo continuous flow set-up. Factors influencing the overall conversion and product selectivity, including flow rate and catalyst quantity, were investigated. At flow rates of 1–4 mL h−1 near quantitative conversion was maintained over an extended period. Keeping the mass of catalyst constant (0.025 g) and varying the flow rate from 1–6 mL h−1 resulted in a shift in the formation of the oxidation product methyl phenyl sulfone from 60.1 to 18.6%.]]> Wed 10 Apr 2024 14:17:42 SAST ]]> The development of catalytic oxovanadium(IV)-containing microspheres for the oxidation of various organosulfur compounds https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:7324 Wed 08 May 2024 17:38:35 SAST ]]> Oxovanadium (IV)-catalysed oxidation of dibenzothiophene and 4, 6-dimethyldibenzothiophene https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:51429 Wed 08 May 2024 16:15:32 SAST ]]> The development of novel nickel selective amine extractants https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:50957 Wed 08 May 2024 16:13:58 SAST ]]> The development of catalytic oxovanadium (IV)-containing microspheres for the oxidation of various organosulfur compounds https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:50969 Wed 08 May 2024 16:13:33 SAST ]]> The development of Palladium(II)-specific amine-functionalized silica-based microparticles : adsorption and column separation studies https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:7270 0.99.
