  1. 1. Operando X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy Studies of Methane Oxidation Catalysts

    Författare :Johan Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; operando spectroscopy; XAS; palladium; heterogeneous catalysis; methane oxidation; XAFS;

    Sammanfattning : Operando spectroscopy is an experimental method in catalysis that combines measurements of catalytic activity and selectivity with simultaneous in situ spectroscopic characterization of the catalyst. Since the structure and composition of the catalyst are probed under reaction conditions, the method can provide valuable information to elucidate the mechanism of the studied reaction. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation aims to increase the understanding of important steps in the catalytic CO2 hydrogenation and total methane oxidation reactions over supported noble metal catalysts. A general theme is the role of the metal oxide support for the catalytic reactions. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Functionalized mesoporous carbons as non-precious metal fuel cell catalysts

    Författare :Johanna Dombrovskis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; electrocatalysis; oxygen reduction reaction; non-precious metal catalyst; mesoporous carbon; fuel cell; X-ray absorption spectroscopy;

    Sammanfattning : Fuel cells allow for clean and efficient chemical to electrical energy conversion. However, their high price significantly limits the market viability of the technology. This is to a large part due to the high cost of the precious metals used in most fuel cell catalysts. LÄS MER

  5. 4. CO Oxidation over Oxide Supported Platinum Catalysts

    Författare :Mengqiao Di; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

  7. 5. Chemically Modified Metal Oxide Nanostructures Electrodes for Sensing and Energy Conversion

    Författare :Sami Elhag; Omer Nour; Magnus Willander; Alberta Bonanni; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Metal oxide nanostructures; mixed metal oxide nano-compound; low temperature wet-chemical growth; chemically modified electrode; doping; surfactant; potentiometric sensor; chemical sensor and photo-electrochemical activity;

    Sammanfattning : The goal of this thesis is the development of scalable, low cost synthesis of metal oxide nanostructures based electrodes and to correlate the chemical modifications with their energy conversion performance. Methods in energy conversion in this thesis have focused on two aspects; a potentiometric chemical sensor was used to determine the analytical concentration of some components of the analyte solution such as dopamine, glucose and glutamate molecules.
