  1. 1. Application of Fourier Transforms to time-resolved ambient pressure spectroscopy operando studies of CO oxidation over Pt(111)

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

    Author : Grigore-Leon Ratiu; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The study of heterogeneous catalysis has important implications in increasing the efficiency of industrial processes and in reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases from sources such as automobiles. A reaction with high industrial relevance is the oxidation of CO on noble metal catalysts. READ MORE

  3. 2. 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

  4. 3. Investigating self-discharge in a graphite dual-ion cell using in-situ Raman spectroscopy.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Strukturkemi

    Author : Ismail Yussuf Hassan; [2023]
    Keywords : graphite; dual-ion battery; parasitic reaction; cathode-electrolyte interface; anion intercalation; concentrated electrolyte; self-discharge; Raman spectroscopy;

    Abstract : Anion intercalation in the graphite positive electrode of a dual-ion battery requires high potential (> 4.3 V vs Li+/Li), which aggravates parasitic reactions involving electrolyte decomposition and Al corrosion, manifesting in poor coulombic efficiency, cycle life, and quick self-discharge.

  5. 4. Fast deep discharging using a controllable load as pretreatment for EV battery recycling : A study on efficacy, speed, and safety

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Lucas Van Genechten; [2023]
    Keywords : Recycling; lithium-ion battery; deep discharging; external short-circuit; internal pressure; thermal stability; Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy; Återvinning; litiumjonbatteri; djupurladdning; extern kortslutning; internt tryck; termisk stabilitet; electrochemical impedance spectroscopy;

    Abstract : In response to the present and projected growth of the EV industry, the development of a large-scale, reliable and efficient lithium-ion battery recycling sector is vital to ensure circularity of the embedded valuable metals and ensure overall sustainability of the technology. One of the main recycling procedures under development is based on hydrometallurgy. READ MORE

  6. 5. In Situ and Ex Situ Study of Nanoparticles Stability and Transformation in Simulated Aquatic Natural Media

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Dinh Nguyen; Jonathan Samuelsson; Vilma Grönvall; [2022]
    Keywords : nanoparticles; freshwater; natural organic matter NOM ; agglomeration; dissolution; genotoxicity; atomic absorption spectroscopy AAS ; nanoparticle tracking analysis NTA ; inductively coupled plasma ICP ; nanopartiklar; färskvatten; naturligt organiskt material NOM ; agglomerering; upplösning; genotoxicitet; atomabsorptionsspektroskopi AAS ; nanopartikelspårning analys NTA ; induktivt kopplad plasmaanalys ICP ;

    Abstract : Nanopartiklar är partiklar med storlekar i området 1 till 100 nm, och som uppvisar nanospecifika egenskaper. Egenskaperna kan variera helt mellan olika typer av nanopartiklar, även bland partiklarna och deras respektive material i bulk format på grund av deras unika storlekar, former och strukturer.
