Spring 2013
Global kinetic model for a Pt-Pd diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) is proposed and validated. Experimental data was obtained using different concentrations of the artificial gas mixtures which were passed over a bimetallic catalyst. Previous works of Voltz [1], Pandya [2], Sola [3] and many others...

Selective ring opening of naphthenic molecules is a preferred reaction to increase cetane number of fuels, and it should result in products with no loss in molecular weight and longer alkyl side chains. Benzocyclopentane (indan) ring opening was studied under hydrogen atmospheric pressure at 609...

Activity, selectivity and stability enhancements often observed in bimetallic catalysts make them an inseparable part of today’s chemical industry. However, it is usually problematic to understand the real interactions resulting in such improvements due to the lack of control over the bimetallic...

In every thermal upgrading process, short-chain hydrocarbons contain a part of the gas byproducts. These compounds are hydrogen-rich materials, which are considered as low value wastes. In this study, the efforts were made to catalytically convert these off-gases to liquid fuels. Synthetic gases...

Cost-Effective Catalysts for the Electrochemical and Photoelectrochemical Reduction of Carbon Dioxide
DownloadFall 2019
The growing consumption of fossil resources has rapidly depleted fuel availability and increased CO2 emission, which presents two of the most prominent crises in the modern era. CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) at ambient conditions using electrochemical (EC) and photoelectrochemical (PEC) methods...

Bimetallicity is known to provide synergistic effects and improve catalytic performance of monometallic counterparts in a variety of applications. Conventional impregnation methods for supported catalyst preparation do not allow for the control of bimetallic nanoparticle structure or size, which...

The beneficial feature of the application of natural gas in the automotive industry is the lowest carbon content of any fossil fuel, which results in the lowest CO2 emissions. On the other hand, the concern of atmospheric pollution due to methane emissions from natural-gas vehicles (NGV) engines...
