Emission reduction by targeted transient operations in three-way catalysts for heavy-duty natural gas applications
To curb the severe effects of climate change, our society needs to radically reduce its CO2 footprint. For the heavy-duty sector, where electrification is difficult, alternative fuels can be the solution. Methane-fueled engines have lower energy-specific C ...
EPFL2022Experimental and modeling-based analysis of reaction pathways on catalysts for natural gas engines under periodic lean/rich oscillations
Davide Ferri, Oliver Kröcher, Moyu Wang
Methane (CH4) has the prospective of becoming one of the major energy carriers for heavy-duty mobility, but its catalytic abatement remains a challenge. CH4 abatement reaction pathways were analyzed using targeted periodic lean/rich oscillations, which res ...
ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA2022Aging of industrial Fe-zeolite based catalysts for nitrous oxide abatement in nitric acid production plants
Davide Ferri, Pierdomenico Biasi, Filippo Buttignol
The influence of hydrothermal aging on the structural and catalytic properties of two commercial Fe-exchanged zeolite catalysts (Fe-FER and Fe-ZSM-5) in the extruded form employed for the removal of N2O from the exhaust of nitric acid production plants has ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2022Atomic Level Insights of Non-Noble Metal Catalysts for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction
The conversion of intermittent renewable energy resources in the form of chemical bond, such as hydrogen production from electrochemical water splitting, is a promising way to satisfy the future global energy demand and address the environmental issues. Th ...
EPFL2021Stability of metallo-porphyrin networks under oxygen reduction and evolution conditions in alkaline media
Klaus Kern, Jan Gui-Hyon Dreiser, Markus Etzkorn, Claudius Morchutt, Sebastian Stepanow, Benjamin Wurster
Transition metal atoms stabilised by organic ligands or as oxides exhibit promising catalytic activity for the electrocatalytic reduction and evolution of oxygen. Built-up from earth-abundant elements, they offer affordable alternatives to precious-metal b ...
2019Supported PtxPd1-x bimetallic nanoparticles on ionic liquid-functionalized SiO2@graphene oxide nanocomposite and its application as an effective multiphasic catalyst
Stefanos Giannakis, Mona Kohantorabi
In this work, PtxPd1-x (x = 0, 0.5, and 1) nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized on the surface of SiO2@graphene oxide which covered by 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([bmitn] PF6) ionic liquid (IL) layer. FT-IR spectroscopy, zeta potential ...
ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV2019Oxidative cleavage of -O-4 bonds in lignin model compounds with a single-atom Co catalyst
Paul Joseph Dyson, Xile Hu, Zhaofu Fei, Antoine Philippe Van Muyden, Xiang Li, Lichen Bai, Zhangjun Huang, Xinjiang Cui, Sijie Liu
Single-atom catalysts are emerging as primary catalysts for many reactions due to their 100% utilization of active metal centers leading to high catalytic efficiencies. Herein, we report the use of a single-atom Co catalyst for the oxidative cleavage of th ...
2019A novel reactor concept for thermal integration of naphtha reforming with propane ammoxidation
Alimohammad Bahmanpour, Samira Ebrahimian
In this study, propane ammoxidation as an exothermic process is thermally coupled with the endothermic naphtha reforming process which resulted in the elimination of the naphtha reforming furnaces. Both processes are available in petrochemical plants. Naph ...
