Mullite production by valorization of a hydrodesulphurization catalyst waste

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 1, January 2026.
Due to its high alumina and silica content, Ni–Mo catalyst waste is a suitable, amorphous raw material for producing aluminosilicate phases. Thermal treatment of the waste at 1200°C for 30 min yields a material containing 50 wt.% mullite and exhibiting 96% overall crystallinity. The addition of amorphous silica significantly enhances mullite formation:

The interaction between Fe2O3‐bearing molten slag and MgO‐C refractory containing calcium magnesium aluminate antioxidant

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 108, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The interaction behavior between iron oxide‐bearing slags and carbon‐bonded MgO refractory (MgO‐C) containing calcium magnesium aluminate (CMA) was investigated at 1400°C, 1500°C, and 1600°C. After the iron oxide was reduced by the carbon from the MgO‐C refractory, a significant amount of MgO and metallic iron was observed to precipitate and ...

Impact of Different Types of Dust on Solar Glass Transmittance and PV Module Performance

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, Volume 33, Issue 8, Page 844-853, August 2025.
This study characterizes the soiling losses between four natural dusts. It identifies significant differences in soiling losses, showing that a particular dust from Thailand has a 12.8% higher transmittance loss slope. In addition, measured slopes of Isc losses are consistently lower than calculated values, with an average discrepancy of 16.6%.
