  2. 11. Development of Methanol-Reforming Catalysts for Fuel Cell Vehicles

    Author : Johan Agrell; KTH; []
    Keywords : PEM fuel cells; hydrogen; methanol; reforming; oxidation; reaction pathways; carbon monoxide;

    Abstract : Vehicles powered by proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuelcells are approaching commercialisation. Being inherently cleanand efficient sources of power, fuel cells constitute asustainable alternative to internal combustion engines to meetfuture low-emission legislation. READ MORE

  4. 12. Kinetics of Nanoparticle Catalysis from First Principles

    Author : Mikkel Jørgensen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Density functional Theory; Mean field approximation; Acetylene hydrogenation; Kinetic Monte Carlo; CO oxidation; Entropy; Methane oxidation; Heterogeneous catalysis; Kinetic modeling; Nanoparticles;

    Abstract : Modern society depends heavily on heterogeneous catalysis, which creates strong economical and environmental incentives to improve catalyst efficiency. Heterogeneous catalysts are often realized as metal nanoparticles (NPs) supported on oxide surfaces, and catalysts are traditionally developed by trial and error approaches. READ MORE

  5. 13. NH3-SCR over Cu-zeolite catalysts: activity and deactivation studies

    Author : Kurnia Wijayanti; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cu‑SAPO-34; internal mass transfer limitation; NH3‑SCR; Cu-zeolite; hydrothermal aging; SO2 poisoning; Cu‑Beta; Cu‑SSZ‑13;

    Abstract : NOx emission is one of the major contributors to air pollution especially in the urban environment. The most frequently applied technique to reduce NOx from diesel engine is to employ ammonia selective catalytic reduction (NH3-SCR) using Cu‑zeolite as the catalyst. READ MORE

  6. 14. Oxidative Trifluoromethylation and other Functionalization Reactions of Alkenes and Alkynes

    Author : Pär Janson; Kálmán Szabó; Antonio Togni; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; palladium; copper; transition metal; trifluoromethylation; catalysis; acetoxylation; difunctionalization; oxidation; mechanistic study; alkenes; alkynes; quinones; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the use of various potent oxidants in organic synthesis. The main focus is directed at selectively introducing trifluoromethyl groups into compounds containing double or triple bonds. All reactions proceed under mild conditions and can in most cases be performed on the bench-top. READ MORE

  7. 15. Model Studies of Electron Transfer and Reaction Dynamics at Surfaces

    Author : Johan Strömquist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dissociation; desorption; oxidation; hot precursors; surface chemical reaction; chemiluminescence; surface harpooning; charge transfer; electron emission; transient mobility; non-adiabaticity;

    Abstract : Charge-transfer is of key importance in many physical, chemical and biological processes, including surface reactions. This thesis consists of several theories for and model studies of surface reactions that are initiated by electron transfer between the surface to a molecule. READ MORE
