  2. 1. CO2 activation for methanol synthesis on copper and indium oxide surfaces

    Author : Alvaro Posada Borbon; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Methanol conversion; Heterogeneous catalysis; Density functional theory; Copper surface; Indium oxide​​; CO2 reduction;

    Abstract : Catalytic recycling of CO2 to added-value chemicals, such as methanol (CH3OH), has been proposed as a possible way for sustainable production of fuel and chemicals, in addition to providing a route to mitigate climate change. Multiple systems are known to be active for the conversion of CO2 to methanol, and the state of the art catalyst is Cu/ZnO/Al2O3. READ MORE

  4. 2. First principles studies of CO2 activation and reduction over indium oxide and copper surfaces

    Author : Alvaro Posada Borbon; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CO2 reduction; indium oxide; Heterogeneous catalysis; methanol conversion; Density Functional Theory; copper surface;

    Abstract : Catalytic recycling of carbon dioxide (CO2) to added-value chemicals, such as methanol (CH3OH), have been proposed as a possible path for sustainable production of fuel and chemicals, in addition to providing a route to mitigate anthropogenic carbon emissions. Several catalytic systems are known to be active for conversion of CO2 to methanol, Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 being the main industrial catalyst for the process. READ MORE
