In this work, one of the most important types of zeolite in the petroleum refinery industry faujasite like zeolite was used as a raw material. The magnetic measurements of this sort of zeolites were studied once without the ion exchange process and another by ion exchange and loading metal such as copper, iron, and nickel using the ion exchange process and impregnation from the solution. The remarkable thing in this work is that the faujasite-like zeolite with nickel-metal ion after ion exchange showed unexpected results since a very high magnetic moment value μeff B.M. equal to 5.71966 B.M was obtained. Depending on the data obtained from this work and from the magnetism data, and since the expected shapes of nickel complexes are NiL5 (Square pyramidal) and NiL5 (trigonal bipyramidal) it is expected that there is a mixture of Square pyramidal (μeff=2.87) and trigonal bipyramidal (μeff=2.87) Nickel II complexes. The sum of the magnetic moment of the mixed complexes is μeff= 5.74 B.M. All faujasite Y zeolitic samples and catalysts were characterized using Magnetic Susceptibility Balance (M.S.B), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis techniques, adsorption efficiencies, and elemental analysis.

Using the methods of XRF, XRD, and low-temperature adsorption-desorption of nitrogen, the physicochemical characteristics of granular LSX zeolites like in many cation-exchange forms were studied. A comparative analysis of their adsorption properties in static and dynamic modes with an industrial imported analogue was carried out. It is shown that the adsorption characteristics for nitrogen, CO2, water vapor and benzene of the synthesized granular LSX zeolite in the Li-form and the imported analogue are close. In this work proposed a method for synthesis of granular zeolite LSX in lithium form, involving synthesis of highly dispersed zeolite NaK-LSX; its blending and granulation with clay mineral from Troshkovsky region; drying in air atmosphere at T= 120-140 °C for 4-6 hours and calcining at 600-650 °C for 4-6 hours; treatment in a sodium hydroxide solution with a concentration of C(NaOH) = 70 g/l at 70 °C for 3 hours, followed by a three-fold ion exchange in a Lithium chloride solution.

In this study, a novel photocatalyst, Cu&Ni@FAU Faujasite type zeolite, was successfully prepared and characterised using various techniques, including XRD, SEM-EDX, FTIR, N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm, and UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Cu&Ni@FAU enhances the photocatalytic efficiency through several mechanisms, including the photo-Fenton-like process of H2O2, the electronic capture of KBrO3, and the reducing effect of NaBH4. Response surface methodology has been applied to study the impact of H2O2, KBrO3, and NaBH4 and their interactions on the photocatalysis of tetracycline. Furthermore, the efficiency of the photocatalysts and their kinetics were assessed for four different organic molecules, and it was found that the rate constant of tetracycline degradation was 0.054 M−1min−1. It is worth mentioning, Cu&Ni@FAU is temperature stable and shows maximum degradation at 70°C. Radical trapping experiments revealed that various reactive species played a role in the photodegradation process. The results show that hydroxyl radicals (OH•) and superoxide radicals (O2-•) are the dominant species in the photocatalysis mechanism. Additionally, electrons (e-) and holes (h+) had a moderate impact as active species, since the band edges of Cu&Ni@FAU is located between 2.86 eV at valance band (VB) and −0.38 eV at conduction band (CB).. To gain deeper insights into these processes, the study used density functional theory (DFT) simulation, which allowed for the calculation of electronic and vacuum band edges. This computational approach likely provided valuable information about the fundamental processes occurring during the photocatalysis process.

This study investigates, for the first time, the effects of dealumination of binder-free NaY type zeolite on the adsorption properties and porous structure characteristics. In this study, BF-Y zeolite was hydrothermally synthesized from kaolin and powder NaY. BF-Y was then treated with acid to increase Si/Al ratio. X-ray Diffraction (XRED), Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and Energy Dispersive X-Ray (EDX) have been performed for the characterization. The modified zeolite granules MBF-Y were used as an adsorbent for the removal of methylene blue MB dye from water. The influence of initial MB concentration, contact time, temperature, and adsorbent dosage on adsorption capacity and dye removal percentage on MBF-Y was investigated. The maximum dye removal was attained at a concentration of (8 * 10-6 M) which was more than 93%, and an equilibrium contact time of 60 minutes. Well-known adsorption isotherms (Langmuir, Fruendlich, and Tempkin) were used to study the adsorption mechanism of MB onto MBF-Y.

Most of the methods described in the literature for the preparation of pentasil-containing catalysts involves the synthesis of highly dispersed zeolite ZSM-5 in the required cation-decationized forms and subsequent molding in a mixture with a binder material into granules. Information on available and promising for industrial implementation methods for the synthesis of granular materials based on high crystallinity ZSM-5 zeolite with a hierarchical porous structure is absent in the literature. As a result of the studies, a method for the synthesis of granular zeolite ZSM-5 of high phase purity and degree of crystallinity of −100% using tetrabutylammonium bromide as a template was proposed. The method includes the stages of mixing powdered zeolite ZSM-s5 and amorphous alumino silicate, moistening the mixture with water and mechanical granulation, drying and crystallizing the resulting granules.

Evaluation of crude oil and its residue using derivatography, is one of the most common physical and chemical methods analytical research. Crude oil residues 350+ obtain from two Iraq-Kurdistan crudes (Tawke T-21A well and Shekhan PF2 well) by using atmospheric distillation after removing all volatile fractions. The sample characterized by direvatographic method. The thermo analysis, reactions were carried out at temperature range 20- 700℃ for reaction time 68 min. These derivatograph curves show the weight change and heat energy (Enthalpy) change as the function of time and temperature. It shows that the crude oil residues have different composition. The curve which marks the weight changes of the sample heated is the thermogravimetric curve, TGA. Whereas the curve, which records heat energy or enthalpy changes during thermal decomposition is the DTA or differential thermoanalytic. By means of the derivatograph, it is possible to record simultaneously curve of weight change (TG), and enthalpy change (DTA) as a function of temperature. This method analysis shows good evaluation of these two crude oil well.
