Use of a pulsating combustion apparatus to obtain a catalyst for the synthesis of nanostructured carbon materials

Abstract

The preparation of highly efficient catalysts for the synthesis of nanostructured carbon-based nanostructured materials is considered. Catalysts of the NiO/MgO type with nanosized active sites can be obtained by burning the initial aqueous solution of nickel and magnesium nitrates with glycine in a pulsating combustion apparatus. Based on an analysis of features of the pulsating gas flow in elements of such apparatuses, a scheme has been developed and a setup has been created for the continuous synthesis of catalysts. Results of investigation of a carbon-based material synthesized on the proposed catalyst are presented.
