  2. 1. Coke on Supported Palladium and Platinum Catalysts

    Author : Mikael Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TPO; palladium; deactivation; coke; propane dehydrogenation; microbalance; vegetable oil hydrogenation; acetylene hydrogenation; catalysis; platinum;

    Abstract : Catalyst deactivation by coke formation has been investigated in three heterogeneous catalytic processes, propane dehydrogenation, acetylene hydrogenation and hydrogenation of vegetable oil. Palladium and/or platinum supported on alumina were used as catalysts in all reactions. READ MORE

  4. 2. 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

  5. 3. CO oxidation over platinum-ceria catalysts -- Structural dynamics and reaction mechanisms

    Author : Mengqiao Di; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CO oxidation; Platinum catalysts; EXAFS; XANES; Operando spectroscopy; DRIFTS;

    Abstract : Catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) continues to be important due to its wide applicability in emission control, in-door air cleaning, fuel cell efficiency enhancement, chemical feedstocks purification etc. The transportation sector emits most of the CO emissions. READ MORE

  6. 4. Low temperature CO oxidation on supported platinum and cobalt oxide catalysts

    Author : Peter Thormählen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

  7. 5. Oxidation and Reconstructions of Alloy Model Catalysts : Platinum-Rhodium and Palladium-Gold

    Author : Helen Edström; Synkrotronljusfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Alloying; APXPS; Bimetallic Catalysts; Heterogeneous Catalysis; HESXRD; Oxidation; Oxide Formation; Palladium-Gold; Platinum-Rhodium; Surface Reconstruction; Fysicumarkivet A:2023 Edström;

    Abstract : Alloys and bimetallic systems have shown many advantages in heterogeneous catalysis, but the details of their catalytic functions are not always known. For instance, the atomic details about surface reconstructions under catalytic reaction conditions, or which phases that are high-active or low-active. READ MORE
