  2. 1. NOx Storage and Reduction Catalysts. Reduction with Hydrogen and the Influence of Water and Carbon Dioxide

    Author : Anna Maria Lindholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NSR catalyst; Pt Ba Al; H2O; CO2; Pt Al; NOx reduction; H2; NH3 formation; NOx storage; Lean NOx Trap; N2O formation; kinetic modeling; Pt Si;

    Abstract : Environmental concern has increased over the past several years and resulted in stringent emission legislation on NOx, CO, and hydrocarbon emissions from automobile exhausts. Moreover, the demands to improve the fuel efficiency of engines and to lower the CO2 emissions have increased, and a way to meet this is by using lean burn engines which operate with oxygen excess.

  4. 2. Growth, processing and characterization of group IV materials for thermoelectric applications

    Author : Mohammad Noroozi; Muhammet .S Toprak; Henry .H Radamson; Raşit Turan; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thermoelectric; SiGe; GeSn Si ; Chemical vapor deposition; Nanowires; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Discover of new energy sources and solutions are one of the important global issues nowadays, which has a big impact on economy as well as environment. One of the methods to help to mitigate this issue is to recover wasted heat, which is produced in large quantities by the industry, through vehicle exhausts and in many other situations where we consume energy.

  5. 3. Kinetic Studies of NOx Storage and Reduction Catalysts - Flow Reactor Experiments and Microkinetic Modeling

    Author : Anna Maria Lindholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NOx reduction; flow reactor experiments; NOx storage; Pt Ba Al; NSR catalyst; microkinetic modeling; combined NSR and SCR system;

    Abstract : The NOx storage and reduction (NSR) technology is a promising technique to reduce NOx during oxygen excess e.g. in lean burn engine exhaust. A typical NSR catalyst consists of the following components: precious metals, such as platinum, palladium or rhodium, a storage component, usually barium, and a high surface area support, such as γ-alumina.

  6. 4. Alkylation and Hydrodearomatization over Zeolite cCatalysts

    Author : Jun-Jun Yuan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Acid catalysts; ZSM-5 catalysts; ethylbenzene; toluene; temperature; diesel fuel; hydrodearomatization; benzene; acidic protons; activity and selectivity; aqueous ethanol; Pt Y zeolite; gasoline; pressure; GC; diethylbenzene; Hydrocracking; SiO2 Al2O3 ratio; alkylation of aromatics; Brønsted acids;

    Abstract : The alkylation of aromatic compounds is widely used in the large-scale synthesis of petrochemicals, and a great variety of fine chemicals and intermediates. Acid catalysts used for alkylation of aromatic hydrocarbons are Brønsted acids containing acidic protons. READ MORE

  7. 5. Materials design and characterization of the active regions of gas sensitive field-effect devices

    Author : Anna Elisabeth Åbom; Udo Weimar; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Metal-Insulator-Semiconductor (MIS) field-effect devices with catalytic metal layers are sensitive to several important gases, such as hydrogen, ammonia, hydrocarbons and alcohols. The gas sensitivity and selectivity depends on the properties of the active regions of the device. READ MORE
