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. Evaluating a new hydraulic implementation in LPJ-GUESS for three sites in north Europe

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Carl Holmquist; [2023]
   Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; LPJ-GUESS; drought; sensitivity analysis; evapotranspiration; gross primary production; hydraulic parameters; boreal forest.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Drought is projected to increase in frequency and intensity and impacts trees with increased water stress and increased mortality rate. Water stresses can cause hydraulic failure-related mortality or carbon starvation due to tree species having different strategies to deal with water stresses. READ MORE

4. 3. 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

5. 4. Metal-Organic Frameworks for Carbon Dioxide Capture : Using Sustainable Synthesis Routes

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

   Author : Dhruva Deole; [2022]
   Keywords : Metal-Organic Frameworks; Metal-Organic Frameworks for Carbon Dioxide Capture; Sustainable Synthesis; 3D Printing of Metal-Organic Frameworks; Nanomaterials; Nanoporous Materials; Nanotechnology and Functional Materials;

   Abstract : Globally the combustion of fossil fuels has increased to a greater extent. Carbon dioxide (CO2) a major greenhouse gas isa by-product of such combustion practices. READ MORE

6. 5. Evaluation of the LPJ-GUESS crop model under ambient and elevated CO2 concentrations.

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Annika Nitschke; [2022]
   Keywords : LPJ-GUESS; free-air carbon dioxide enrichment experiments; elevated CO2; climate change; wheat yield; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : In the future atmospheric CO2 concentrations might exceed 550 ppm according to the RCP8.5 scenario by mid-century from our current 410 ppm, while our world population is projected to surpass the 9.7 billion threshold within the same time span. This challenge leads to the raising of questions addressing future food security. READ MORE
