Biography:
Dr. Arzu Akif Jalilova studied Chemical Technology at Azerbaijan State Oil Academy and graduated from academy as a technologist. She is a senior scientific researcher at the Laboratory of “Chemistry of alicyclic compounds” of the Institute of Petrochemical Processes of MSE of Azerbaijan Republic. She received her PhD degree on Petrochemistry in 2013 at the same institute. She conducted researches on the process of producing alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons, especially, ethylbenzene and styrene from 4-vinylcyclohexsene by oxidative dehydrogenation, preparation of catalysts in order to carry out the process, studied the impact of several factors on the process and achieved high results. The results were published in prestigious journals such as “Azerbaijan Chemical Journal”, “Petrochemistry”, “Applied Chemistry”, “Processes of Petrochemistry and oil Refining”, “Theoretical and experimental chemistry”. She will be responsible for the development of catalysts and conducting oxidative dehydrogenation.
Title : Oxidative dehydrogenation of 4-vinylcyclohexene to styrene in a two section reactor on metal-containing zeolites
