16. Direct conversion of methane-to-methanol: transition-metal dimer sites in small-pore zeolites: First-principles calculations and microkinetic modeling
Abstract : Direct conversion of methane to methanol is a highly desired reaction. Partially oxidizing methane into a liquid fuel at ambient temperature and pressure would enable utilization of natural gas and biogas to a much larger extent than what is possible today. READ MORE

17. Aging effects on commercial lean NOx trap catalysts
Abstract : As a countermeasure to global warming, vehicles with low carbon emissions are being investigated by promoting lean-burn engines and high combustion efficiencies. However, one limitation to the increasing use of these engines is the need to develop corresponding catalytic systems for controlling the nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions in their lean exhaust.

18. Novel catalysts development for NOx reduction from H2 combustion engines
Abstract : Hydrogen, as a clean energy carrier, burns without producing any carbon emissions. Hydrogen internal combustion engines (H2-ICE) are considered an alternative for the transition from conventional fossil-fuel vehicles. READ MORE

19. Analysis of carbon black oxidation
Abstract : Diesel engines are known to be a major source of a highly pollutant material known as particulate matter, PM, which is a strongly threatening agent to human health. Therefore, diesel particulate filters are used to reduce PM emissions by trapping soot. READ MORE

20. Corrosion of Ferritic Stainless Steels Used in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells
Abstract : Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) are energy conversion systems with clean emissions (depending on the fuel used) and high electrical efficiencies, which could potentially replace conventional conversion systems such as combustion engines. However, other issues, such as high costs and limited lifetime, must be resolved before widespread commercialization of SOFCs can be achieved. READ MORE
