  2. 1. Production and transformation of organic compounds from renewable feedstock : Catalytic approaches

    Author : Elena Subbotina; Joseph Samec; Pieter Bruijnincx; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lignin; biomass; lignin-first; catalytic fractionation; flow reactors; dibenzodioxocin; silanes; zeolites; visible light photocatalysis; dearomatization; spirolactones; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : This thesis is focused on the development of strategies for lignocellulosic biomass valorization. The thesis consists of two parts.The first part of the presented work is related to the catalytic fractionation of biomass (lignin-first approach) and the production of monomeric compounds from lignocellulose.

  4. 2. Exploring Novel Catalytic Chalcogenide Antioxidants

    Author : Henrik Johansson; Lars Engman; Helena Grennberg; Troels Skrydstrup; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; antioxidant; tellurium; selenium; catalytic; toxicity; ROS; neutrophil; glutathione peroxidase mimic; macrophage.; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi; Kemi med inriktning mot organisk kemi; Chemistry with specialization in Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with the synthesis and evaluation of regenerable chalcogen containing antioxidants. Variously substituted 2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]selenophene-5-ol antioxidants were evaluated in order to gain information about structure/reactivity-relationships. READ MORE

  5. 3. Catalytic combustion of gasified waste

    Author : Henrik Kusar; KTH; []
    Keywords : Catalytic combustion; Gasified waste; LHV-fuel; RDF; Biomass; Selective catalytic oxidation; NH3; NOX; Palladium; Platinum; Hexaaluminate; Garnet; Spinel; Deactivation; Sulphur; Poisoning;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns catalytic combustion for gas turbineapplication using a low heating-value (LHV) gas, derived fromgasified waste. The main research in catalytic combustionfocuses on methane as fuel, but an increasing interest isdirected towards catalytic combustion of LHV fuels. READ MORE

  6. 4. Catalytic valorization of lignocellulose : Direct and sidestream upgrading approaches

    Author : Davide Di Francesco; Joseph Samec; Orlando Rojas; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lignin; biomass; catalytic fractionation; dearomatization; heterogeneous catalysis; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : This work aims to explore different approaches for the valorization of lignocellulosic biomass. In this regard, two different strategies are presented: the catalytic upgrading of lignocellulose derivatives from industrial streams, such as pyrolytic oil and kraft lignin, and the direct catalytic fractionation of woody biomass.

  7. 5. Catalytic combustion of methane

    Author : Philippe Thevenin; KTH; []
    Keywords : catalytic combustion; gas turbine; methane; palladium; alumina; barium; lanthanum; oxidation; preparation; temperature-programmed oxidation TPO ; decomposition; reoxidation; X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy XPS ; metal-support interaction; deactiva;

    Abstract : Catalytic combustion is an environmentally benign technologywhich has recently reached the stage of commercialization.Palladium is the catalyst of choice when considering gasturbines fuelled with natural gas because of its superioractivity for methane oxidation. READ MORE
