    Författare :Philippe Thevenin; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :catalytic combustion; gas turbine; methane; palladium; alumina; barium; lanthanum; oxidation; preparation; temperature-programmed oxidation TPO ; decomposition; reoxidation; X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy XPS ; metal-support interaction; deactiva;

    Sammanfattning : Catalytic combustion is an environmentally benign technologywhich has recently reached the stage of commercialization.Palladium is the catalyst of choice when considering gasturbines fuelled with natural gas because of its superioractivity for methane oxidation. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Abiotic and biotic methane dynamics in relation to the origin of life

    Författare :Nguyen Thanh Duc; David Bastviken; Patrick Crill; Nils Holm; Edward Hornibrook; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; methane; methanogens; methane formation; methane oxidation; lake sediment; olivine; origin of life; geokemi; Geochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Methane (CH4) plays an important role in regulating Earth’s climate. Its atmospheric concentrations are related to both biotic and abiotic processes. The biotic one can be formed either by chemoautotrophic or heterotrophic pathways by methanogens. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Palladium Catalyzed Methane Oxidation for Emission Control

    Författare :Ida Friberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; water deactivation; methane oxidation; regeneration; Pd beta; Pd Al2O3; Si Al ratio; Ba; sulfur poisoning; Pd SSZ-13;

    Sammanfattning : The use of methane based fuels, such as natural gas and biogas, benefits from lower emissions of CO2, CO, NOx, non-methane HC, SOx and particulate matters compared to traditionally used liquid fossil fuels. However, the exhaust gases contain significant levels of unburnt CH4 residuals, which are desirable to minimize since CH4 is a strong greenhouse gas with high global warming potential. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Spectroscopic characterisation of surface hydroxyls during catalytic methane oxidation

    Författare :Peter Velin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; XAS; Water inhibition; Supported palladium; Sustainable transports; Methane oxidation; Operando spectroscopy; DRIFTS; Environmental catalysis;

    Sammanfattning : Implementation of methane rich fuels as to develop sustainable vehicle transports requires improved catalytic exhaust aftertreatment technologies to convert engine-out methane emissions to carbon dioxide and water by total oxidation. A main challenge is that water formed during combustion inhibits the methane oxidation reaction even over the most active palladium-based catalysts presently known. LÄS MER
