WO3/CeO2/TiO2 Catalysts for Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx by NH3: Effect of the Synthesis Method
WO3/CeO2/TiO2, CeO2/TiO2 and WO3/TiO2 catalysts were prepared by wet impregnation. CeO2/TiO2 and WO3/TiO2 showed activity towards the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx by NH3, which was significantly improved by subsequent impregnation of CeO2/TiO ...
Swiss Chemical Soc2015X-ray irradiation synthesis of PEG-coated Au-Pd nanoparticles
We demonstrate that the combination of x-ray irradiation and capping by polyethylene glycol (PEG) produces excellent flexibility in controlling the structure of Au-Pd nanoparticles while preserving their catalytic performance. We specifically adopted two d ...

2015Methane Production from Microalgae via Continuous Catalytic Supercritical Water Gasification: Development of Catalysts and Sulfur Removal Techniques
This doctoral thesis aims at demonstrating the technical feasibility of methane production from microalgae via continuous catalytic supercritical water gasification (CSCWG). This work focuses on three different research approaches: (i) assessment and impro ...
EPFL2015Iridium(I)/N-Heterocyclic Carbene Hybrid Materials: Surface Stabilization of Low-Valent Iridium Species for High Catalytic Hydrogenation Performance
David Lyndon Emsley, David Benjamin Roger Antoine Gajan
An Ir-I(NHC)-based hybrid material was prepared using a methodology which allowed the precise positioning and isolation of the Ir centers along the pore channels of a silica framework. The full characterization of the material by solid-state NMR spectrosco ...
2015Size-Controlled Pd Nanoparticles in 2-Butyne-1,4-diol Hydrogenation: Support Effect and Kinetics Study
Lioubov Kiwi, Fernando Cardenas Lizana, Charline Berguerand
Structured catalyst has been developed for C–C triple bond three-phase hydrogenation. The sintered metal fiber (SMF) coated by different oxides served as support for monodispersed Pd nanoparticles (6.4 ± 0.5 nm). The effect of acid–base properties and redu ...
Amer Chemical Soc2014Adsorption of Small Hydrocarbons on the Three-Fold PdGa Surfaces: The Road to Selective Hydrogenation
Harald Brune, Roland Widmer, Daniele Passerone, Jan Prinz
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 ...
American Chemical Society2014Palladium Nanohexagons and Nanospheres in Selective Alkyne Hydrogenation
Palladium nanohexagons were prepared using a seed-mediated method. Their catalytic performance in 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol hydrogenation was compared to the one of monodispersed Pd nanospheres. Quantitative correlations between initial turnover frequencies (T ...
2009Relation between potential and catalytic activity of rhodium in propylene combustion
Christos Comninellis, György Foti, Ivan Bolzonella
The relation between the catalyst potential and the catalytic performance has been investigated in the gas-phase combustion of propylene with oxygen over rhodium catalysts at 375 DegC. The rhodium catalyst, deposited on yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) sol ...
