Article Citation - WoS: 273Citation - Scopus: 327Transesterification of Nannochloropsis Oculata Microalga's Lipid To Biodiesel on Al2o3 Supported Cao and Mgo Catalysts(Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Umdu, Emin Selahattin; Tuncer, Mert; Şeker, ErolIn this study, we present the activities of Al2O3 supported CaO and MgO catalysts in the transesterification of lipid of yellow green microalgae, Nannochloropsis oculata, as a function of methanol amount and the CaO and MgO loadings at 50 °C. We found that pure CaO and MgO were not active and CaO/Al2O3 catalyst among all the mixed oxide catalysts showed the highest activity. Not only the basic site density but also the basic strength is important to achieve the high biodiesel yield. Biodiesel yield over 80 wt.% CaO/Al2O3 catalyst increased to 97.5% from 23% when methanol/lipid molar ratio was 30.Article Citation - WoS: 85Citation - Scopus: 88Effect of Immobilization on Catalytic Characteristics of Saturated Pd-N Carbenes in Mizoroki-Heck Reactions(Elsevier Ltd., 2006) Aksın, Özge; Türkmen, Hayati; Artok, Levent; Çetinkaya, Bekir; Ni, Chaoying; Büyükgüngör, Orhan; Özkal, ErhanA saturated Pd-N-heterocyclic complex was immobilized on an amorphous silica. The complex itself is of very high thermal stability. However, TEM observations, hot filtration, reusability, and poisoning tests all revealed that the complex acted only as a precatalyst to highly active Pd species in Mizoroki-Heck reactions when immobilized. The complex appears more stable when used under homogeneous reaction conditions. The immobilized complex afforded high turnover numbers, 104-105. The higher turnover frequencies were realized at the lower Pd concentrations, which is a characteristic property of ligand-free Pd catalyzed reactions.
