It is provided solid, heterogeneous catalysts and a method for producing Hby steam reforming. More particularly, the catalyst comprises at least one metal element of Cu, Ni, Fe, Co, Mo, Mn, Mg, Zr, La, Ce, Ti, Zn and W, having a formula CuNiFeCoMOMnMgZrLaCeTiZnWO, wherein a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, I and m are molar ratios for the respective elements, wherein a, b, c, d, e, f, g and m are >0, h, I, j, k and I are >0 or a, b, c, d, e, f, g, i, and j are ≥0, h, k, I and m are >0 and x is such that the catalyst is electrically neutral. The produced Hcan be used to powered vehicle as described herein.

Catalysts for hydrogen production

It is provided solid, heterogeneous catalysts for the deoxygenation of esters of free fatty acids and triglycerides, and for the production of hydrocarbons that can be used as biofuels. More particularly, the catalyst comprises at least one metal oxide, the catalyst having a formula AlCuNiSiTiZnZrLaCeWSnGaFeMOMnCOO, wherein a, b, c, d, g, h, i, j, k, l, m n, o, p and x are the molar ratios of the respective elements, wherein a, b, c, d, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o and p are >0, e, f and g are >0 and x is such that the catalyst is electrically neutral.

Catalysts for the deoxygenation of esters of free fatty acids and triglycerides

Catalysts and methods for use in conversion of glycerides and free fatty acids to biodiesel are described. A batch or continuous process may be used with the catalysts for transesterification of triglycerides with an alkyl alcohol to produce corresponding mono carboxylic acid esters and glycerol in high yields and purity. Similarly, alkyl and aryl carboxylic acids and free fatty acids are also converted to corresponding alkyl esters. Catalysts are capable of simultaneous esterification and transesterification under same process conditions. The described catalysts are thermostable, long lasting, and highly active.

Catalyst for the production of carboxylic acid ester

Solid mixed catalysts and methods for use in conversion of triglycerides and free fatty acids to biodiesel are described. A batch or continuous process may be used with the catalysts for transesterification of triglycerides with an alkyl alcohol to produce corresponding mono carboxylic acid esters and glycerol in high yields and purity. Similarly, alkyl and aryl carboxylic acids and free fatty acids are also converted to corresponding alkyl esters. The described catalysts are thermostable, long lasting, and highly active.

Solid, heterogeneous catalysts and methods of use

The invention includes novel compounds, including but not limited to formula A and formula B, and an improved delivery method. These compounds and methods are useful in preventing or treating diseases or conditions associated with or caused by the presence of free radicals, and are useful for increasing cellular metabolism while simultaneously alleviating the resultant increase in oxidative stress. Specifically, a carnitine is bound to a lipoic acid derivative or to dihydrolipoic acid or its derivatives using a hydrolysable linker to form a single compound.

Cleavable carnitine compound

A high purity N,N-Carbonyl diimidazole (I) is obtained by the reaction of Imidazole, general formula-II, and bis (trichloromethyl) carbonate. Synthesis of N,N-Carbonyl diimidazole (I) is described:

A high quality 1,2,3-triazole is obtained in a one pot two step reaction between appropriately substituted hydrazide derivatives, dihaloethanediol and NH.sub.3 in methanol. Synthesis of various N.sub.1 -alkyl, N.sub.1 -aryl, and N.sub.1 -heterocyclic-1,2,3-triazoles is also accomplished following the same general procedure.

Economical manufacturing process for 1,2,3-triazoles

A high purity triazole is obtained by the reaction of a hydrazide of the general formula II and glyoxal followed by the treatment of the intermediate of general formula IV with ammonia. The total process is done in one pot and does not require the isolation of the intermediate IV. The triazole (I) is isolated by distillation. Synthesis of various N.sub.1 -substituted triazoles is also described following the same procedure.
