  1. 1. Linking the selectivity of varying surface phases of a real palladium catalyst toward specific methane oxidation pathways with Ambient Pressure X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy

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

    Author : Ulrike Küst; [2023]
    Keywords : APXPS; catalysis; palladium; methane; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The study of heterogeneous catalysis, especially within methane oxidation, is of high importance in order to more efficiently remove unburned methane from bio-fuel exhausts. This is relevant as bio-fuel engines will replace those driven by fossil fuels in the coming decades. READ MORE

  2. 2. Nanoscale characterisation of model Ni-Mo catalyst active phases

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Jonas Elmroth Nordlander; [2022]
    Keywords : Ni-Mo catalysts; Hydrodeoxygenation; TEM; PXRD; Materials chemistry; Chemistry;

    Abstract : An important stepping stone in transitioning from a fossil-fuel based transportation system is the production of bio-fuels such as bio-oils. For bio-oils to be commercially viable, catalytic upgrading via hydrodeoxygenation is required, typically using Ni-Mo oxide or sulfide catalysts. READ MORE

  3. 3. Polymerization of isatin towards polymers for anion exchange membranes and gas separation applications

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Simone Facchini; [2022]
    Keywords : organic chemistry; membranes; isatin; polymers; Chemistry;

    Abstract : In a world where the problem of energy resources, pollution and all aspects related to these issues becomes more and more dominant, a greater commitment is needed in the search for solutions. The goal of this project is to make a contribution to the research and development of new materials to reduce the environmental impact in some fields. READ MORE

  4. 4. A comparative study on the prospects of sustainable aviation fuels in Sweden

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Daniel Katebi; Olle Hoffman Carlsson; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aviation industry needs to move towards a more sustainable future to achieve the climate goals set forth by the European Union (to reach a climate neutral economy by 2050), and in the recent past the interest in sustainable jet fuel has increased. In this report we compared different feedstocks and pathways for production of sustainable jet fuels from an economical, technical and environmental perspective for long-term implementation.

  5. 5. Alternative Drivetrain for Future Freight Trucks

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

    Author : Athanasios Tsamos; [2020]
    Keywords : future freight trucks; transportation; sustainable fuels; alternative fuels; future mobility; long distance trucks; hybrid mobility; alternative drivetrain; electric trucks;

    Abstract : Presently, heavy-duty trucks are responsible for approximately 25% of global CO2 emissions. Although the world seems to incline towards the transport sector's electrification, the electrification of long-range freight trucks is profoundly challenging. READ MORE
