1. Titania supported vanadium oxide catalysts in the NH3-SCR reaction: Effect of vanadium loading, promoters and aging
Abstract : Emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from combustion processes in mobile sources attract significant attention due to their role as a major source of atmospheric contamination, along with health risks and environmental issues. Since combustion processes in heavy-duty vehicles are expected to be used for a foreseeable future, many efforts have been invested in a suitable deNOx technology. READ MORE

2. Catalytic Incineration of CO and VOC Emissions over Supported Metal Oxide Catalysts
Abstract : Catalytic incineration is one of the methods to reduce the emissions of CO and VOCs. Low operation temperature and low catalyst cost are essential parameters for catalytic incinerators. Pt/Al2O3 catalysts are frequently used today, but the cheaper metal oxide catalysts can be very competitive if comparable overall activity is obtained. READ MORE

3. Selective oxidation over mixed oxide catalysts
Abstract : Since the metal oxide catalysts used in many chemical processes show very high selectivity for the products aimed at, both today and in the future, they play a key role in the environmentally and economically sustainable production of chemical intermediates. Two processes of this sort have been studied in the thesis: the ammoxidation of propane and propene over a Mo-V-Nb-Te-oxide catalyst and the selective oxidation of methanol over vanadium-based catalysts.

4. Cr Vaporization and Oxide Scale Growth on Interconnects in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells
Abstract : The vaporization of Cr(VI) species and the greater electrical resistance caused by a growing oxide scale are probably the two most detrimental degradation mechanisms associated with the use of Cr2O3-forming alloys as the interconnect material in a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC). High electrical efficiency, clean emissions and the possibility to utilize several types of fuels, such as hydrogen, alcohols and hydrocarbons are some of the great advantages of SOFC technology.

5. Catalytic formation of ammonia from nitric oxide
Abstract : The emission of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from automobiles results in severe environmental and biological effects. Passive selective catalytic reduction (passive SCR) of NOx with ammonia (NH3) is a proposed method for abatement of NOx emissions in net lean-burn gasoline passenger vehicles. READ MORE
