The generation of catalyst design tools is important for developing both economically and environmentally friendly reactions. This thesis focuses on the use and development of such a tool, molecular volcano plots, which have the ability to estimate catalyt ...
Understanding the real aging of Diesel oxidation catalysts (DOC) is key to predict their useful lifetime. This work comprises a detailed study of a commercial DOC in its unused state and after use in vehicle for 288,000 km. The activity of the samples was ...
Pincer ligated coordination complexes of base metals have shown remarkable catalytic activity for hydrogenation/dehydrogenation of CO2. The recently reported MeNCH2CH2(Pr-i(2))Co(I)PNP-pincer complex was shown to exhibit substantially higher catalytic ...
Indium-based catalysts exhibit excellent performance for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol, yet their nature and chemical evolution under reaction conditions are still elusive, thus hindering an understanding of their reaction mechanism. In this work, near amb ...
The emissions of heavy metals have peaked in the second half of the 20th century in central Europe, and so have their depositions. Moreover, soil properties have changed through acidification, which is expected to impact the mobility and availability of tr ...
Hydrogen fuel cell is a promising green technology that transforms the chemical energy in hydrogen into electricity. Currently, most of the efforts are focused on developing proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), however they are heavily dependent o ...
The PETALE experimental program in the CROCUS reactor intends to provide integral measurements on reactivity worth and dosimetry measurement to constrain nuclear data relative to stainless steel heavy reflectors. The experimental setup consists in eight su ...
Rechargeable sodium (Na) metal batteries (SMBs) provide an alternative energy-dense, low-cost energy storage system beyond prevailing Li-ion technologies. However, their practical deployment requires the performance evaluation of Na anodes on the device le ...
In this Perspective, we address the fundamentals and possible implications of Rashba phenomena particularly for noncentrosymmetric and heavy element-containing hybrid perovskite systems. The work sheds light on the application paradigm of these exciting ph ...
Air pollution is a major environmental health risk and it contributes to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases and excess mortality worldwide. The adverse health effects have been associated with the inhalation of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and indu ...
