  2. 6. Deactivation mechanisms influencing the performance and durability of exhaust aftertreatment systems

    Author : Jesus De Abreu Goes; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermal degradation; Gasoline particulate filters; Lean NOx traps; Sulfur poisoning.;

    Abstract : As countermeasure to air pollution and global warming, more stringent environmental policy measures will probably come into force with the future emission standards, which will require important developments for gasoline and diesel vehicles to meet the emerging criteria. Efficient catalytic formulations and advanced strategies for exhaust aftertreatment systems will be therefore demanded to provide both high catalytic activity and stability, minimizing the environmental impact by automobiles.

  4. 7. Oxygen Vacancy Chemistry in Ceria

    Author : Jolla Kullgren; Kersti Hermansson; Shluger Alex; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ceria; Density Functional Theory; Oxygen storage; Nano crystals; Sulfur poisoning; Chemistry with specialization in Inorganic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : Cerium(IV) oxide (CeO2), ceria, is an active metal oxide used in solid oxide fuel cells and for the purification of exhaust gases in vehicle emissions control. Behind these technically important applications of ceria lies one overriding feature, namely ceria's exceptional reduction-oxidation properties. READ MORE

  5. 8. Catalytic combustion of gasified waste

    Author : Henrik Kusar; KTH; []
    Keywords : Catalytic combustion; Gasified waste; LHV-fuel; RDF; Biomass; Selective catalytic oxidation; NH3; NOX; Palladium; Platinum; Hexaaluminate; Garnet; Spinel; Deactivation; Sulphur; Poisoning;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns catalytic combustion for gas turbineapplication using a low heating-value (LHV) gas, derived fromgasified waste. The main research in catalytic combustionfocuses on methane as fuel, but an increasing interest isdirected towards catalytic combustion of LHV fuels. READ MORE

  6. 9. Fundamental studies of catalytic systems for diesel emission control

    Author : Xavier Auvray; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NH3 SCR; NO oxidation; sulfur; hysteresis; kinetic modeling; SpaciMS; catalyst acidity; DOC; aging; Pt Al2O3;

    Abstract : Due to global lean exhaust gas and new emission regulations, exhaust aftertreatment systems of diesel engines are more and more sophisticated and composed of a series of catalytic units. In the present work, two of these catalytic systems were studied with different approach. READ MORE

  7. 10. Complete methane oxidation over alumina and zeolite supported palladium for emission control

    Author : Ida Friberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Pd zeolite; Pd Al2O3; sulfur poisoning; stoichiometric; hydrothermal aging; water deactivation; regeneration; methane oxidation; Ba;

    Abstract : The use of methane-based fuels, such as natural gas and biogas, gives lower emissions of for instance carbon dioxide (CO2) and particulate matters compared to traditionally used liquid fossil fuels. However, the exhaust gases contain significant levels of unburnt methane (CH4) residuals, which are desirable to minimize since CH4 has a high global warming potential. READ MORE
