  1. 21. Low temperature CO oxidation over Pt/CeO2

    Författare :Noemi Bosio; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Heterogeneous catalysis; Cerium oxide; CO oxidation; kinetic Monte Carlo; density functional theory;

    Sammanfattning : The oxidation of CO to CO2 is a widely studied reaction not only for its practical applications but also for its apparent simplicity. CO oxidation is, in fact, often used as a model reaction for other oxidation reactions. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Unlocking the potential of a caged star: Thermoelectric quaternary clathrates

    Författare :Joakim Brorsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Monte Carlo; Boltzmann Transport; Inorganic clathrates; Thermoelectrics; Cluster expansion;

    Sammanfattning : Heat losses are an inevitable consequence of any energy conversion process, dictated by the second law of thermodynamics. This not only leads to an eternal struggle, via the pursuit of maximal efficiency, it also undermines our efforts to solve the two issues that pose the most significant challenges to modern society: climate change and the worlds surging energy need.

  3. 23. Hydration of oxo anions : a combined computational and experimental structure and dynamics study in aqueous solutions

    Författare :Lars Eklund; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The structure and dynamics of several hydrated oxo anions were studied using multiple methodologies. Aqueous solutions of sulfate, sulfite, thiosulfate, peroxysulfate, selenite, selenate, hypochlorite, chlorite, chlorate, perchlorate, bromate, iodate and periodate salts were studied using large angle X-ray scattering (LAXS) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy.

  4. 24. Kinetics of Nanoparticle Catalysis from First Principles

    Författare :Mikkel Jørgensen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Density functional Theory; Mean field approximation; Acetylene hydrogenation; Kinetic Monte Carlo; CO oxidation; Entropy; Methane oxidation; Heterogeneous catalysis; Kinetic modeling; Nanoparticles;

    Sammanfattning : Modern society depends heavily on heterogeneous catalysis, which creates strong economical and environmental incentives to improve catalyst efficiency. Heterogeneous catalysts are often realized as metal nanoparticles (NPs) supported on oxide surfaces, and catalysts are traditionally developed by trial and error approaches. LÄS MER
