11. Kinetic Studies of NOx Storage and Reduction Catalysts - Flow Reactor Experiments and Microkinetic Modeling
Sammanfattning : 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.

12. Electron and Proton Transfer in Nitric Oxide Reductase : NO Binding, NO Reduction and no Pumping
Sammanfattning : Nitric oxide reductase (NOR) from Paracoccus denitrificans catalyzes the two electronreduction of NO to N2O (2NO + 2H+ + 2e- → N2O + H2O) as part of the process ofdenitrification, the step-wise reduction of nitrate to dinitogen. The NOR-catalyzedreaction is central in the nitrogen cycle, since in this step the N=N double bond isformed. LÄS MER
13. Nitrous Oxide Emission from Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustion
Sammanfattning : In the present thesis N2O results are presented from several measurement projects on two commercial circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boilers. Traditional parameter studies have been carried out, as well as test programs where various nitrogen-containing species were injected into the furnace or gas-concentration profiles in the combustion chamber were measured.

14. Deactivation of SCR catalysts - Impact of sulfur and the use of biofuels
Sammanfattning : In a near future, limits on CO2 emissions from vehicles will be introduced, which requires development of more fuel-efficient engines and most likely a transition towards the use of more biofuels. With the implementation of biofuels several issues could arise, one being the lack of fuel standards for these new type of fuels, leading to higher concentrations of catalyst poisons compared to conventional fossil fuels.

15. Imprint of management on microbial communities in arable soil : implications for N2O emissions
Sammanfattning : Arable soils are a major source of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O), emissions of which are directly linked to increased use of N fertilizers. Microbial communities that drive N cycle processes in soil ultimately determine the fate of reactive N inputs and control N2O emissions. LÄS MER
