The interaction of hydrogen with gallium oxide
There is an increasing interest in the application of gallium oxide as a catalyst support material, with particular interest in its use in new methanol steam reforming... -
INS Study of Cu-based methanol synthesis catalysts
In low-pressure methanol synthesis from fossil synthesis gas, Cu/ZnO/Al2O3-catalysts are successfully used in industrial synthesis at 250°C and 50-100 bar, but the exact... -
INS studies of the oxidation of benzyl alcohol using supported AuPd nanoparti...
This proposal is a continuation of RB1000003 and RB1110113. The aim of the present experiment is to gain further insight into the mechanism of benzyl alcohol oxidation using... -
The application of INS to examine a Fischer-Tropsch-to-Olefin catalyst that h...
In conjunction with an industrial partner (Sasol Technology UK), the applicants have previously used INS measurements performed on the MAPS spectrometer to characterize a series... -
How do modifiers affect performance in iron Fischer-Tropsch catalysts?
The applicants have recently completed a series of INS studies on a model iron Fischer-Tropsch catalyst. Given the recent huge invigoration of F-T catalysis due to future global... -
Investigation of the nature of organic surface species formed on Au-based sup...
The objective of this proposal is to spectroscopically identify the nature of surface species formed during the addition of tert butyl hydroperoxide onto the surface of the... -
Further investigation of the methanol to gasoline reaction over ZSM-5 using INS
The reaction of methanol to form hydrocarbons over zeolite catalysts is an important option for conversion of natural gas or coal to liquid fuels. We have shown previously...
