  1. 1. The active phase of Pt(110) during catalytic CO oxidation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Hira Qazilbash; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : CO oxidation is an important topic in heterogeneous catalysis, due to its role in industrial processes such as pollution reduction in the auto industry, and ethanol or other fuel production. In the automotive catalytic converters CO oxidation reduces the poisonous CO to CO2 by reacting with O2. READ MORE

    Abstract : The biodiesel sector has witnessed tremendous growth in recent years, leading to a significant increase in glycerol production as a by-product. Addressing the challenge of glycerol valorization is crucial for the sustainability of the biodiesel industry. READ MORE

  6. 5. The effect of material properties on PEM fuel cell catalysts on durable oxidation reduction activity

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Xiaoling Jiang; [2023]
    Keywords : PEM fuel cell; catalyst; ORR activity; particle size; degradation; PEM-bränslecell; katalysator; syrgasreduktionsaktivitet; partikelstorlek; åldring;

    Abstract : I detta examensarbete utforskas påverkan av partikelstorleken hos Pt-katalysatorer på kolbärare på syrereduktionen i polymerelektrolytmembran (PEM)-bränsleceller. Den elektrokemiskt aktiva ytarean, aktiviteten för syrereduktion och tillhörande degraderingshastigheter för de undersökta katalysatorerna beräknas och jämförs. READ MORE
