Synergy between gold and oxygen vacancies in gold supported on Zr-doped ceria catalysts for the CO oxidation
(Elsevier, 2015)
The CO oxidation activity of 1 wt.% gold catalysts prepared by depositionprecipitation on a series of ceria doped with Zr supports was studied. The supports (10, 25 and 50 Zr At. %) were synthesized by a pseudo sol-gel ...

A direct in situ observation of water-enhanced proton conductivity of Eu-doped ZrO2: Effect on WGS reaction
(Elsevier, 2018)
Eu-doped ZrO2 solid solutions have been synthesized in order to prepare proton conductors as water-enhancer additives for the WGS reaction. Elemental characterization has been carried out revealing homogeneous ...

Pt/CePO4 catalysts for the WGS reaction: influence of the water-supplier role of the support on the catalytic performance
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)
For Pt catalysts which have demonstrated great activity for the WGS reaction, the activation of water is described as the rate-limiting step. Such limitation could be overcome through the design of supports able to supply ...

New 3D Printing Strategy for Structured Carbon Devices Fabrication
(MDPI, 2023)
This work shows a new method for the preparation of 100% carbon-structured devices. The method is based on resorcinol-formaldehyde polymerization, using starch as a binder with the addition of a certain amount of external ...

Spinel Ferrite Catalysts for CO2 Reduction Via Reverse Water Gas Shift Reaction
(Elsevier, 2023)
The production of CO via Reverse Water Gas Shift (RWGS) reaction is a suitable route for CO2 valorization. In this study a series of modified spinels AB2O4 (A site = Ni, Zn and Cu and B site=Fe) are investigated as RWGS ...

Current scenario and prospects in manufacture strategies for glass, quartz, polymers and metallic microreactors: A comprehensive review
(Institute of Chemical Engineers, 2021)
One of the most remarkable benefits of the microreactors is the achievement of more efficient processes by enhancing the heat and mass transfer phenomena, which is the key factor for processes intensification in chemical ...

Does shaping catalysts modify active phase sites? A comprehensive in situ FTIR spectroscopic study on the performance of a model Ru/Al2O3 catalyst for the CO methanation
(Elsevier, 2018)
Routinely, it seems assumed that the catalytic layer coated on monoliths and microchannel reactors preserve the properties of the initial powder catalyst. However, this assumption should be reasonably demonstrated since ...

Effect of starch as binder in carbon aerogel and carbon xerogel preparation
(Elsevier, 2019)
Carbon aerogels and carbon xerogels were synthesized through resorcinol – formaldehyde polycondensation using Na2CO3 as catalyst. The effect of soluble starch introduction in the organic gel preparation on the porous surface ...

Influence of gold particle size in Au/C catalysts for base-free oxidation of glucose
(Elsevier, 2017)
A series of gold colloids were prepared and immobilized on commercial activated carbon. The influence of the colloid preparation and stability were studied and related to the gold particle size in the final catalyst. The ...

WGS and CO-PrOx reactions using gold promoted copper-ceria catalysts: “bulk CuO-CeO2 vs. CuO-CeO2/Al2O3 with low mixed oxide content”
(Elsevier, 2016)
A copper-ceria bulk catalyst has been compared to a series of catalysts designed according to the as called “supported approach”, corresponding to the dispersion of low content mixed copper-ceria oxide on alumina matrix. ...
