4.1.1. Palladium-Loaded Zeolite Catalyst Characterization<br />
In order to determ<strong>in</strong>e the <strong>palladium</strong> content of the zeolite, Pd-NaY was<br />
dissolved <strong>in</strong> a mixture of concentrated HBF4, HNO3, and HCl (3:3:2) <strong>in</strong> a Teflon<br />
reactor. This mixture was heated <strong>in</strong> Ethos Plus Microwave Lab station furnace<br />
accord<strong>in</strong>g to the follow<strong>in</strong>g heat<strong>in</strong>g program.<br />
The mixture was heated to 180 °C <strong>in</strong> 5 m<strong>in</strong>utes under 600 W power and <strong>in</strong> the<br />
next step, hold at 180 °C for 10 m<strong>in</strong>utes under 650 Watt microwave power. At the end<br />
of the program, the solutions were diluted to approximately 1:50. Standard solutions<br />
(0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4 ppm) were prepared from standard stock <strong>palladium</strong>(II) solution (Pd(II)<br />
nitrate <strong>in</strong> nitric acid 0.5mol/l) <strong>in</strong> nitric acid (%1). The samples were analyzed by Atomic<br />
Adsorption Spectroscopy (AAS). The wt% Pd <strong>in</strong> zeolite was determ<strong>in</strong>ed by us<strong>in</strong>g the<br />

Although the catalyst was analyzed by X-Ray Diffraction, any <strong>palladium</strong><br />
couldn’tbe observed due to its low concentration (
