Intermetallic compounds are a promising class of materials as stable and selective heterogeneous catalysts. Here, the (111) and (-1-1-1) single crystal surfaces of the PdGa intermetallic compound were studied as model catalysts with regard to the selective ...
The development of nanostructured materials with predictable and controllable connectivity and functionalities has sparked a multitude of research directions. We have been studying emerging metal-org. framework (MOFs) systems aimed at applications that ben ...
Typical flue gas streams have low concns. of CO2 and high gas flow rates, making porous materials, such as zeolites, metal-org. frameworks (MOFs), and activated carbons promising options for the future sepn./sequestration of CO2. These framework materials ...
Detailed neutron powder diffraction (NPD) expts. were carried out on the parent and CO2 adsorbed Mg-MOF-74 (MOF: metal-org. framework). Data collected at low temp. revealed two CO2 adsorption sites on the pore surface and multiple changes in the framework ...
Analysis of the CO2 adsorption properties of a well-known series of metal-organic frameworks M-2(dobdc) (dobdc(4-) = 2,5-dioxido-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate; M = Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn) is carried out in tandem with in situ structural studies to ident ...
Novel efficient adsorbents for acetaldehyde removal from diluted gas streams (similar to 1300 ppmv) have been developed. The adsorbents combine the properties of activated carbon fibers (ACF) and nanoparticles (NPs) of basic metal oxides (La2O3, CaO, MgO, ...
Three criteria for achieving high performing porous materials for water adsorption have been identified. These criteria deal with condensation pressure of water in the pores, uptake capacity, and recyclability and water stability of the material. Water ads ...
The design of adsorption-based separation processes using novel adsorbents requires reliable data for the adsorption of fluid mixtures on candidate adsorbents. Due to the difficulty of generating sufficient data across possible operating conditions, proces ...
Owing to their high surface areas, tunable pore dimensions, and adjustable surface functionality, metal-org. frameworks (MOFs) can offer advantages for a variety of gas storage and gas sepn. applications. In an effort to reduce the major energy requirement ...
The atomic structure and composition of a catalyst's surface have a major influence on its performance regarding activity and selectivity. In this respect, intermetallic compounds are promising future catalyst materials, as their surfaces exhibit small and ...
