1. Catalytic conversion of syngas to higher alcohols over MoS2-based catalysts
Sammanfattning : The present thesis concerns catalytic conversion of syngas (H2+ CO) into a blend of methanol and higher alcohols, an attractive way of producing fuels and chemicals. This route has the potential to reduce the oil dependence in the transport sector and, with the use of biomass for the syngas generation, produce CO2-neutral fuels. LÄS MER
2. Adsorption of nonionic amphiphiles to solid surfaces
Sammanfattning : In this study, the adsorption of nonionic amphiphiles from aqueous solutions to solid, planar surfaces is investigated using null ellipsometry. This technique allows independent measurements of the amounts adsorbed at the surface and of the mean optical thickness of the adsorbed layer. LÄS MER
3. Flotation of silicate minerals : physico-chemical studies in the presence of alkylamines and mixed (cationic/anionic/non-ionic) collectors
Sammanfattning : The mechanism of adsorption of long chain alkyl primary amines and, co-adsorption of amines and alcohols on silicate minerals (quartz and feldspar) were studied using FTIR (DRIFT and IRRAS) and XPS spectroscopy methods. The spectroscopy data were correlated with zeta-potential and Hallimond flotation results. LÄS MER
4. Surface chemical studies on feldspar/quartz system using alkylamines and mixed (cationic/anionic/non-ionic) collectors : adsorption mechanisms and flotation selectivity
Sammanfattning : The mechanism of adsorption of long chain alkyl primary amines and, co-adsorption of amines and alcohols on quartz were studied using FTIR (DRIFT and IRRAS) and XPS spectroscopy methods. The spectroscopy data were correlated with zeta-potential and Hallimond flotation results. LÄS MER
5. Experimental Study of Using Butanol or Octanol Blends as Alternative Fuels in Diesel Engines
Sammanfattning : With the increased travel demand, the consumption of fossil fuels, as the main energy source for transportation, has risen sharply over the last few decades. Fossil fuels are considered a non-renewable resource. In addition, burning them in internal combustion engines can generate a large amount of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. LÄS MER
