1. Tuned acidity in zeotypes: A descriptor to unravel the direct conversion of methane to methanol
Sammanfattning : The catalyst's acidity is crucial in countless chemical reactions, and thus to tune this parameter means to take the lead on the desired catalytic reaction. Therefore, it is not surprising that zeolites have been used since decades as catalysts for their outstanding properties of solid acids. LÄS MER
2. Green Aromatics: Catalytic Valorisation of bio-derived 2,5-dimethylfuran over Zeolites and Zeotypes
Sammanfattning : This thesis discusses the use of biomass as a potentially green feedstock for the chemical industry in the urgent shift away from fossil resources. I elaborate on reasons why we cannot afford to burn virgin biomass for energy production, among them a variety of ecosystem services that forests and other lands provide. LÄS MER
3. Open-Framework Germanates : Crystallography, structures and cluster building units
Sammanfattning : This thesis is focussing on the crystallographic challenges and what knowledge we can gain from studying the different open-framework germanates. Five new open-framework germanates have been synthesized and the structures have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. LÄS MER
4. Partial Oxidation of Methane over Functionalised Zeolites and Zeotypes
Sammanfattning : Partial oxidation of methane to methanol is an industrially important process that allows natural gas and biogas to be utilised for methanol-based production of chemicals or converted to liquid methanol fuel, which make transportation more facile. In this thesis, the activity for partial oxidation of methane to methanol over copper functionalised zeolites and silica supported copper is investigated using a three-step quasi-catalytic approach including catalyst activation, methane reaction and methanol extraction by water.
