Mechanistic classification and benchmarking of polyolefin depolymerization over silica-alumina-based catalysts

Paul Joseph Dyson, Mounir Driss Mensi, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Antoine Philippe Van Muyden, Wei-Tse Lee, Jed Russell Carullo

Carbon-carbon bond cleavage mechanisms play a key role in the selective deconstruction of alkanes and polyolefins. Here, we show that the product distribution, which encompasses carbon range and formation of unsaturated and isomerization products, serves a ...

Catalytic hydrocracking of synthetic polymers into grid-compatible gas streams

Paul Joseph Dyson, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Antoine Philippe Van Muyden, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Kun-Han Lin, Reza Zamani

The use of methane as one of the cleanest energy sources has attracted significant public awareness, and methane production processes with less environmental impact than fracking are receiving considerable attention. Catalytic hydrocracking of plastic mate ...

Aggregation of Halloysite Nanotubes in the Presence of Multivalent Ions and Ionic Liquids

Paul Joseph Dyson, Felix Daniel Bobbink

Colloidal stability was investigated in two types of particle systems, namely, with bare (h-HNT) and polyimidazolium-functionalized (h-HNT-IP-2) alkali-treated halloysite nanotubes in solutions of metal salts and ionic liquids (ILs). The valence of the met ...

Cycloaddition of Biogas-Contained CO2 into Epoxides via Ionic Polymer Catalysis: An Experimental and Process Simulation Study

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Paul Joseph Dyson, François Maréchal, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Antoine Philippe Van Muyden, Masoud Talebi Amiri, Alexy Robert Bonnin

Biogas upgrading technologies are crucial for the production of high-purity biomethane. Efficient CO2 removal methods that are currently commercialized rely on "catch-and-release" mechanisms, and the CO2 stream is usually discharged into the atmosphere wit ...

Direct conversion of plastic materials into methane and liquid fuels

Paul Joseph Dyson, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Antoine Philippe Van Muyden, Wei-Tse Lee

The invention relates to a method for direct conversion of plastic materials into methane and/or liquid fuel and use of ruthenium-modified zeolite to catalyse this conversion. ...

Anhydrous Conditions Enable the Catalyst-Free Carboxylation of Aromatic Alkynes with CO2 under Mild Conditions

Paul Joseph Dyson, Marinella Mazzanti, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Davide Toniolo

The direct carboxylation of aromatic alkynes with CO2, a cheap and widely available C1 source, is the most attractive method for the synthesis of carboxylic acids. Here we show that direct carboxylation of terminal alkynes can be simply performed in near-q ...

Masking specific effects of ionic liquid constituents at the solid-liquid interface by surface functionalization

Paul Joseph Dyson, Felix Daniel Bobbink

Ion specific effects of ionic liquid (IL) constituents on the surface charge and aggregation properties of two types of particles (positively charged amidine (AL) and polyimidazolium-functionalized sulfate (SL-IP-2) latexes) were investigated in IL solutio ...

Leather-Promoted Transformation of Glucose into 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural and Levoglucosenone

Paul Joseph Dyson, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Zhangjun Huang, Florent Menoud

The search for efficient catalysts frequently leads to new homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts of increasing complexity, and sometimes common, natural, or hybrid natural/synthetic materials that could be used in catalysis are overlooked. For example, t ...

Retarding Thermal Degradation in Hybrid Perovskites by Ionic Liquid Additives

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Paul Joseph Dyson, Zhaofu Fei, Mounir Driss Mensi, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Cristina Roldán Carmona, Zhangjun Huang, Marius Franckevicius, Nikita Drigo, Rui Xia

Recent years have witnessed considerable progress in the development of solar cells based on lead halide perovskite materials. However, their intrinsic instability remains a limitation. In this context, the interplay between the thermal degradation and the ...

Towards Light-Activated Ruthenium-Arene (RAPTA-Type) Prodrug Candidates

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Anna Katherine Renfrew

Cancer is currently one of the deadliest diseases worldwide. Based on the high incidence of this disease, the side effects associated with current chemotherapies and the appearance of drug resistance, considerable efforts have been directed towards the dev ...
