Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Recent Findings in Catalysis Described by a Researcher from Silpakorn University (Effect of Particle Size of Rice-Husk Derived Silica on the Pyrolysis of Pomelo Peels)

Article Description
Silica with two different sizes i.e. microsilica (MS) and nanosilica (NS) was used as a catalytic support for vanadium (5-15 wt%) in the pyrolysis of pomelo peels. Besides use of pomelo peels (agricultural residues) as a feedstock for the pyrolysis, to contribute to environmental sustainability, rice husk was used as a silica source for obtaining the silica support. From the result, it was found that non-catalytic pyrolysis of pomelo peels gave a bio-oil yield of 33.3 wt%. The catalytic pyrolysis with vanadium-modified silica decreased the bio-oil yields ranging between 27.2-33.1 wt%. This was due to the occurrence of the second reactions generated from the active sites on the catalysts, which leads to the conversion of bio-oil into gas products. For NS catalyst, increasing the amount of vanadium loading directly decreased the bio-oil yields and increased the gas yield. The variation of product phase distribution was not clearly observed for MS catalyst even with various vanadium loadings. In addition, NS catalyst exhibited higher efficiency in reducing the acid content in the bio-oil, and increasing the phenol content. The distinguished properties of the nanoparticles may be the main reason for these phenomena.
