  4. 2. Study of Catalyst Deactivation in Three Different Industrial Processes

    Author : Ann-Charlotte Larsson; Mehri Sanati; Ferruccio Trifiro; Växjö universitet; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; deactivation; catalyst; SCR; VOC; steam reforming; aerosol particle; potassium; zinc; ash salts; biomass; organosilicon; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Deactivation of catalysts were investigated focusing on three industrial processes: 1) Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) for abatement of NOx from biomass combustion using V2O5-WO3 /TiO2 catalysts; 2) Catalytic oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from printing industries using a Pt/γ-Al2O3 catalyst; and 3) Ni and Pt/Rh catalysts used in steam reforming reaction of bio-syngas obtained from biomass gasification.The aim has been to simulate industrial conditions in laboratory experiments in order to comprehend influence of compounds affecting catalysts performance.

  5. 3. Deactivation of Catalysts and Reaction Kinetics for Upgrading of Renewable Oils

    Author : Prakhar Arora; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HVO; Kinetic modeling; Catalyst deactivation; NiMo; Advanced biofuels; Catalyst; Hydrodeoxygenation;

    Abstract : The transport sector is one of the main contributors of greenhouse gas emissions in the world. Advanced biofuels from renewable oils can play a decisive role in reducing carbon emissions from the transport sector. Advanced biofuels from waste streams like tall oil, used cooking oil etc. READ MORE

  6. 4. Potential Electrocatalysts for Water Splitting Devices : A Journey Through the Opportunities and Challenges of Catalyst Classes

    Author : Robin N. Dürr; Leif Hammarström; Bruno Jousselme; Tomas Edvinsson; Haining Tian; Kevin Sivula; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; Electrocatalysis; Electrolyzer cell; HER catalyst; OER catalyst; Water splitting; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : In this thesis work, different classes of catalysts and their suitability for integration into an electrolyzer cell has been investigated.Ruthenium based molecular catalysts have shown high activities and stabilities towards water oxidation in neutral pH. Especially the oligomeric catalysts exhibited a superior performance. READ MORE

  7. 5. Aspects on the Regio and Stereo Selectivity in the Hydrolsilylation of 1,3-Dienes

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Metallorganisk kemi; Organometallic chemistry; Organisk kemi; Organic chemistry; Lewis acid; electrophilic ring closure; asymmetric hydrosilylation; reaction conditions; isoprene; regioselectivity; oxygen; Wilkinsons catalyst; 15N-1H-HMQC; 31P; heterobidentate ligands; catalyst; palladium; epoxy-allylsilanes; rhodium complexes; dienes;

    Abstract : This thesis is a summary of four papers concerning various aspects on the transition metal catalysed hydrosilylation of 1,3-dienes. The hydrosilylation reaction is formally an addition of a hydrosilane to an unsaturated system and depending on the reaction conditions, control of stereo-, regio-, and chemo-selectivity can be achieved.
