Identification of kinetic models is an important task for monitoring, control and optimization of industrial processes. Robust kinetic models are often based on first principles, which describe the evolution of states – number of moles, temperature and vol ...
The solvent-free selective hydrogenation of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol (MBY) to 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBE) was studied over a Pd/ZnO structured catalyst and compared to its behavior in water-assisted conditions. The catalytic behavior was correlated with the s ...
The identification of reaction kinetics involves the determination of a model structure (reaction stoichiometry, rate laws for all reactions) and its corresponding parameters from experimental data. An incremental identification approach for determining th ...
The use of zeolites for catalytic reactions is a field in continuous development. Since it was demonstrated that metal-zeolites are efficient catalysts for NOx abatement, decomposition of nitrous oxide (N2O) over Fe-containing zeolites has attracted great ...
In recent years, chemometric methods for the analysis of multivariate kinetic data have considerably progressed. Kinetic hard-modelling is one of these methods that is based on the rate law and used to determine the kinetic parameters (e.g. rate constants) ...
This work concerns the investigation of the electrochemical promotion of Pt/YSZ catalyst giving more emphasis to the sustainable enhanced catalytic activity after current interruption. The permanent electrochemical promotion (P-EPOC) of C2H4 combustion ove ...
The possibility to increase the performance (productivity or selectivity) of a chemical reactor by using periodic variations of reaction parameters (e.g. reactant concentration or temperature) has been theoretically envisaged since the beginning of the 70t ...
Systematic studies of mass transfer interactions with intrinsic reaction kinetics were performed for the threephase selective hydrogenation of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol (MBY) to 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBE) over a modified Pd/CaCO3 catalyst under solvent ...
The subject of this work is the study of the electrochemical promotion of catalysis (EPOC), also called non-Faradaic electrochemical modification of catalytic activity (NEMCA). In this phenomenon, application of small currents or potentials on catalysts in ...
The surface topography and local surface work function of ultrathin MgO(001) films on Ag(001) have been studied by noncontact atomic force microscopy (nc-AFM) and Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM). First principles calculations have been used to explain ...
