Article N-Formylation of Amines Over a Protonic Zeolite Socony Mobil (H-Zsm-5) and Ion-Exchanged Zeolite: Catalytic Performance and Reusability(Sciendo, 2025) Mekkas, Nadia; Azizi, Soulef; Yilmaz, Selahattin; Benbouzid, Mohammed; Dizoglu, Gunsev; Taib, Hana; Gherraf, NoureddineAn efficient and sustainable method was developed for the N-formylation of primary and secondary amines using formic acid in dichloromethane at room temperature over zeolite H-ZSM-5 and ion-exchanged forms (Zn-ZSM-5, Cu-ZSM-5, Ag-ZSM-5, and Cd-ZSM-5). The catalysts were characterised by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area, ammonia temperature-programmed desorption (NH3-TPD), and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) analyses, revealing a regular hexagonal plate-like morphology and high surface area. H-ZSM-5 exhibited the largest surface area (248.2 m2/g) and total acidity (0.109 mmol NH3/g), while ion exchange slightly modified these properties. The catalytic system achieved excellent yields (up to 99 %) for various amines, demonstrating high efficiency and reusability. This study highlights the potential of zeolite-based catalysts as effective, recyclable materials for N-formylation processes.Article Assessment of the Repeatability of Column Experiments Results on the Example of a Conservative Tracer(Sciendo, 2025) Pietrzak, Damian; Kania, Jaroslaw; Kmiecik, Ewa; Baba, AlperMost studies on the behavior of pollutants in the groundwater environment are carried out in laboratories, and the results are then implemented at local and regional levels using model simulations or analytical solutions. Column experiments are used to determine the transport characteristics of inorganic and organic chemicals in the soil and water environment. Although column experiments have been conducted regularly for many years, there is currently no established standard protocol for setting up and conducting them to ensure consistent results. The repeatability of column experiments was evaluated for soils, which differ primarily in the silt and clay content, using a conservative tracer susceptible only to advection and dispersion processes to reduce the number of variables affecting the results of the study which arise in a case of using reactive contaminants. The column experiments performed according to the adopted methodology are characterized by high repeatability of the obtained test results for the transport parameters, regardless of the type of injection or the chosen column length (only a small-scale effect is visible). Based on the results, it can be noticed that for the same soil the values of the pore-water velocity for different types of injections and column lengths are very similar. The percentage difference between the values of pore-water velocity obtained for both tested soils does not exceed 5% and for individual pairs of parallel column experiments it does not exceed 3%.
