    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. Stability improvement to a ruthenium catalyst for partial oxidation of methane

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Melker Axelsson; [2023]
    Keywords : catalysis; reaction engineering; kinetics; partial oxidation; chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Catalytic partial oxidation of methane (CPOM) is an energy-efficient alternative to steam reforming, the currently prevailing method for energy production from natural gas. Hulteberg Chemistry & Engineering AB has developed a catalyst for the partial oxidation of methane into syngas, for use in solid oxide fuel cells. READ MORE

  4. 3. PGE Geochemistry and Mineralogy of Dunite, Chromitite, and Laterite Samples from the Acoje Ophiolite Block, Philippines

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geovetenskap och miljöteknik

    Keywords : PGM; PGE; laterite; limonite; chromitite; dunite; platinum group minerals; platinum group elements; Acoje; Philippines;

    Abstract : Ni-laterites have the potential to become unconventional ore deposits for platinum group elements (PGE). This study was conducted to determine enrichment trends of PGE as a result of the Ni-laterization process. READ MORE

  5. 4. 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

  6. 5. Characterization of NiMo catalysts with noble metal promoters

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Filip Hallböök; [2023]
    Keywords : Catalysis; Hydrodeoxygenation; TPR; NiMo-catalysts; Chemical engineering; Chemistry;

    Abstract : To be able to face the challenges brought on by climate change there is an urgent need to reduce the heavy dependence on fossil fuels. Bio-oil is one such renewable and carbon-neutral replacement that has shown promising potential. A key step in making bio-oil commercially feasible is improvements of the upgrading processes of the bio-oil. READ MORE
