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/SynkrotronljusfysikAbstract : 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

2. The active phase of Pt(110) during catalytic CO oxidation
University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : 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

3. An Evaluation Study of Leak Testing Technologies for Watertight Plate Heat Exchangers : Fast and sustainable leak testing technology for high energy efficiency products
University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för matematik och naturvetenskapAbstract : Background: One part of manufacturing a Plate Heat Exchanger (PHE) is to leak test them before delivery. Today, helium is used extensively in leak testing. How-ever, it is unsustainable to use helium in leak testing, because of its non-renewability and therefore becoming more and more expensive. Also, this technology is relatively complex. READ MORE

4. Design of a vacuum chamber for cathode testing and low power Hall Effect Thrusters : Collaborative project with OHB Sweden AB
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Testing of hardware to be used in space sometimes involves using vacuum chambers. The need to test hollow cathodes, used as neutralizers for some Electric Propulsion Thrusters, and low power Hall Effect Thrusters at OHB Sweden requires a vacuum chamber to be upgraded. READ MORE

5. 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 institutionenAbstract : 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
