  1. 1. Catalytic Incineration of CO and VOC Emissions over Supported Metal Oxide Catalysts

    Författare :Per-Olof Larsson; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Titania; Ceria; Manganese oxide; Copper oxide; VOC; CO; Ethanol; Ethyl acetate; Metal oxide catalysts; Catalytic combustion; Catalytic incineration; Alumina.; Chemical technology and engineering; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Fysicumarkivet A:1999:Larsson;

    Sammanfattning : Catalytic incineration is one of the methods to reduce the emissions of CO and VOCs. Low operation temperature and low catalyst cost are essential parameters for catalytic incinerators. Pt/Al2O3 catalysts are frequently used today, but the cheaper metal oxide catalysts can be very competitive if comparable overall activity is obtained. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Plasma spray coatings as catalysts for water splitting : exploring novel materials and strategies

    Författare :Xiuyu Wu; Eduardo Gracia-Espino; Juan Carlos Nieves Sanchez; Björn Wickman; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Plasma spray; water splitting; coatings; electrocatalyst; hydrogen evolution reaction; oxygen evolution reaction; Physical Chemistry; fysikalisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Today, fossil fuels still play a dominant role in the global energy systems. However, they are depleting quickly and the combustion of them causes many environmental concerns, including global warming, air pollution, ozone layer depletion, and acid rain. LÄS MER

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

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

    Sammanfattning : 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. 4. Platinum-free Electrocatalysts : Design, Synthesis, and Energy Applications

    Författare :Yi Yang; Inna Soroka; Carina Lagergren; Serhiy Cherevko; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Pt-free electrocatalysts; γ-radiation induced synthesis; size; morphology; structure; and composition of nanocatalysts; ORR; catalytic activity and durability; formation mechanism of catalyst materials in aqueous solutions.; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Pt is one of the most commonly used catalysts for green energy applications, such as fuel cells, electrolyzers, and dye-sensitized solar cells. Although enormous effort has been put into improving the catalytic activity and minimizing the usage of Pt in the catalysts, the low abundance and high price of Pt still limit the large-scale commercialization of green energy devices and facilities.

  5. 5. Synthesis and functionalization of zeolites for NH3-SCR applications

    Författare :Alexander Shishkin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NH3-SCR; NOx reduction; Environmental catalysis; hydrothermal synthesis.; exhaust aftertreatment; zeolite functionalization;

    Sammanfattning : In the strive towards decreasing carbon dioxide emissions from the growing transport sector, the interest for more fuel-efficient combustion engines operating under lean (oxygen excess) conditions has increased. The combustion products, however, formed in such engines contribute considerably to air pollution. LÄS MER
