  1. 1. Studies of the Selective Catalytic Reduction of Nitrogen Oxides with Dimethyl Ether

    Author : Stefanie Tamm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; gas phase reaction; isocyanate; DME; acidic zeolite; reaction mechanism; lean deNOx; NO2 formation;

    Abstract : Dimethyl ether (DME) is one of the most energy-efficient and low CO2 emitting alternative fuels when produced from biomass. Similar to other vehicles with combustion engines, vehicles running on DME will most likely need after-treatment technologies for the reduction of NOx emissions to meet the most stringent upcoming legislations.

  2. 2. Carbon Dioxide: The Unknown Factor in the Atmospheric Corrosion of Light Metals. A Laboratory Study

    Author : Daniel Bengtsson Blücher; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SO2; temperature; CO2; atmospheric corrosion; magnesium; NO2; aluminum alloys; NaCl; O3; Mg-Al alloys;

    Abstract : The atmospheric corrosion of Al and Mg-Al alloys was investigated using controlled air in the laboratory. The effects of CO2, temperature, NaCl, relative humidity, SO2, NO2 and O3 on corrosion rate and corrosion product composition were examined. READ MORE

  3. 3. Chemical Interactions between Potassium, Nitrogen, Sulfur and Carbon Monoxide in Suspension-Fired Systems

    Author : Thomas Allgurén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sulfation; combustion; CO-oxidation; modelling; oxy-fuel; NO-formation; experiments; alkali;

    Abstract : Drastic cuts in global CO2 emissions are needed to mitigate global warming and limit the average temperature increase to well below 2ºC. The power generation sector is largely based on fossil fuels and generates a significant share of the global CO2 emissions. READ MORE

  4. 4. The effect of framework structure on N2O formation over Cu-based zeolites during NH3-SCR reactions

    Author : Ghodsieh Isapour Toutizad; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CHA; MFI; Zeolites; SCR; Ammonium nitrate; Nitrous Oxide; BEA; Infrared spectroscopy; Catalysis;

    Abstract : Anthropogenic nitrous oxide (N2O), which is generally formed as a byproduct of industrial chemical processes and fossil fuel combustion, has attracted significant attention in recent years due to its destructive role in global warming and ozone layer depletion. Among different developed technologies applied for lean NOx reduction, the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx with ammonia (as a reducing agent) is presently the most used method. READ MORE

  5. 5. In situ investigations of the metal/atmophere interface

    Author : Teodor Aastrup; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a new experimental setup for surfaceanalysis studies, incorporating chemical information frominfrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRAS) andquantitative information from quartz crystal microbalance(QCM). The integrated IRAS/QCM surface analysis system enablesin situstudies to be conducted of the metal/atmosphereinteraction on a sub-monolayer level. READ MORE
