  2. 1. Development of ring-opening catalysts for diesel quality improvement

    Author : Ulf Nylén; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ring opening; naphthenes; cetane number improvement; indan; light cycle oil LCO ; Pt-Ir catalyst; catalyst characterization; aromatic sulphur compounds; GC-SCD; distribution; analysis;

    Abstract : The global oil refining industry with its present shift inproduct distribution towards fuels such as gasoline and dieselwill most likely hold the fort for many years to come. However,times will change and survival will very much depend onprocessing flexibility and being at the frontiers of refiningtechnology, a technology where catalysts play leading roles. READ MORE

  4. 2. Ring-opening catalysts for cetane improvement of diesel fuels

    Author : Ulf Nylén; Magali Boutonnet; Sven Järås; François Garin; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ring opening selective ; naphthenic structure; indan; light cycle oil LCO ; cetane; Pt-Ir catalyst; microemulsion; XPS; TPR; TEM; DRIFTS; sulphur analysis; GC-SCD; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : The global oil refining industry with its present product distribution essentially shifted towards fuels such as gasoline and diesel will most likely hold the fort for considerable time. However, conditions are changing and refinery survival will very much depend on long-term planning, process and product flexibility and being at the frontiers of refining technology, a technology where catalysts play leading roles.

  5. 3. Nanostructured Fuel Cell Catalysts

    Author : Marie Gustavsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : Nafion; thin film evaporation; model catalyst; electrocatalyst; acetic acid oxidation; oxygen reduction; colloidal lithography; PEMFC; screening; Pt; formaldehyde oxidation; methanol oxidation; nanofabrication; CO oxidation; polymer electrolyte; TiOx;

    Abstract : A long term challenge for society is to develop sustainable energy systems to reduce the dependence on fossil fuels and to decrease air pollution. This requires new alternatives regarding the supply of energy and increased efficiency of the future energy systems. Fuel cell technology is one such possible alternative. READ MORE

  6. 4. Electrochemical water splitting based on metal oxide composite nanostructures

    Author : Aneela Tahira; Omer Nur; Magnus Willander; Rasit Turan; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Composite metal oxides; hydrothermal method; water splitting; Tafel slope; stability; durability; alkaline media; acidic media;

    Abstract : The occurrence of available energy reservoirs is decreasing steeply, therefore we are looking for an alternative and sustainable renewable energy resources. Among them, hydrogen is considered as green fuel with a high density of energy. READ MORE

  7. 5. SiC-FET Gas Sensors Developed for Control of the Flue Gas Desulfurization System in Power Plants Experimental and Modeling : Experimental and Modeling

    Author : Zhafira Darmastuti; Anita Lloyd Spetz; Lars Ojamäe; Niclas Lindqvist; Mike Andersson; Bilge Saruhan-Brings; Linköpings universitet; []
