  1. 11. Valorization of low-value lignocellulosic side-streams

    Författare :Daria Lebedeva; Joseph S. M. Samec; Emiel J.M. Hensen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lignocellulose; lignin; hemicellulose; hydrodeoxygenation; zeolites; furfural; catalysis; cycloaddition; biomass fractionation; pulping; Organic Chemistry; organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The development of novel pathways for valorizing low-value streams from pulp, forest, and agricultural industries is crucial for realizing a circular bioeconomy and addressing the needs of both platform chemicals and fuels. Utilizing hemicellulose and lignin as biomass-derived feedstocks facilitates the production of sustainable liquid hydrocarbons, with catalytic hydrodeoxygenation being a key process. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Iridium Catalyzed Carbon- Heteroatom Bond Forming Reactions via Hydrogen Transfer : Method Development and Mechanistic Elucidations

    Författare :Aitor Bermejo López; Belén Martín‐Matute; Eduardo Peris; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Catalysis; N-Heterocyclic carbene; N-Alkylation; Hydrogen transfer; Amino acids; Carbohydrates; Amines; Organic Chemistry; organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The present thesis describes the applicability of two different iridium(III) complexes for C-O and C-N bond forming reactions. The different projects described in this work are united by the use of an iridium catalyst bearing a functionalized N-heterocyclic carbene ligand. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Towards a sustainable automotive industry : experiences from the development of emission control systems

    Författare :David Bauner; Staffan Laestadius; Lee Schipper; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; evolutionary economics; environmental innovation; trajectories; co-evolution; Industrial engineering and economy; Industriell teknik och ekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : From the mid-1970s and on, the contribution to air pollution of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides from gasoline passenger cars in the developed world has been reduced through co-evolution of regulation and commercial introduction of catalytic emission control technology, now part of hundreds of millions of cars, trucks and buses worldwide. This dissertation is a disaggregated study of the global introduction of catalytic emission control technology as a measure to reduce local air pollution. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Surface-Induced Modification of Supported Late Transition Metal Complexes

    Författare :Olesia Snezhkova; Synkrotronljusfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; N-heterocyclic carbene palladium complexes; X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy; electron charge transfer; iron phthalocyanine; catalysis; X-ray absorption spectroscopy;

    Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis addresses the investigation of the electronic, magnetic, and structural properties of late transition metal complexes supported on various surfaces. The research is aimed at studying the interaction between the molecules and the support, together with the intermolecular interaction. This knowledge is essential e.g. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Catalyst Design for the Valorisation of Biomass-derived Furans into Aromatics

    Författare :Guido J.L. de Reijer; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aromatics; 2; 5-dimethylfuran; gallium; biomass; furans; production of aromatics; zeolites; biomass conversion; catalysis;

    Sammanfattning : Anno 2023, mankind must strive towards a more sustainable chemical industry; one that does not solely rely on fossil fuels but also utilises renewable feedstocks such as biomass. Biomass can be catalytically converted into commodity chemicals such as aromatics, through intermediates like furans. LÄS MER
