  1. 21. Deactivation of SCR catalysts - Impact of sulfur and the use of biofuels

    Author : Johanna Englund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cu-SSZ-13; Cu-CHA; Catalyst deactivation; Activity test; DeNOx; Sulfur; NOx reduction; NH3-SCR; FAME; Emission control; HVO; Vanadia; Biofuel;

    Abstract : In a near future, limits on CO2 emissions from vehicles will be introduced, which requires development of more fuel-efficient engines and most likely a transition towards the use of more biofuels. With the implementation of biofuels several issues could arise, one being the lack of fuel standards for these new type of fuels, leading to higher concentrations of catalyst poisons compared to conventional fossil fuels.

  3. 23. Mixed metal oxide - noble metal catalysts for total oxidation of volatile organic compounds and carbon monoxide

    Author : Magali Ferrandon; KTH; []
    Keywords : wood combustion; catalysts; total oxidation; manganese; copper; platinum; palladium; lanthanum; cerium; CO; VOC; methane; deactivation; thermal stability; sulphur dioxide;

    Abstract : CO, volatile organic compounds, and polyaromatics areubiquitous air pollutants that give rise to deleterious healthand environmental effects. Such compounds are emitted, forinstance, by the combustion of wood, particularly fromsmall-scale heating appliances. READ MORE

  4. 24. Partial methane oxidation: insights from first principles and micro-kinetics calculations

    Author : Adam Arvidsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; zeolite acidity; zeolites; density functional theory; microkinetic modelling; molybdenum sulfide cluster; partial methane oxidation;

    Abstract : Partial methane oxidation is a much-desired reaction with some intriguing challenges. Not only is there a need to activate methane and oxygen, but there is also a need to control the selectivity and prevent over-oxidation to thermodynamically more stable products, like carbon dioxide and water.
