Fischer–Tropsch Synthesis: Effect of the Promoter’s Ionic Charge and Valence Level Energy on Activity
(10/10/2021)In this contribution, we examine the effect of the promoter´s ionic charge and valence orbital energy on the catalytic activity of Fe-based catalysts, based on in situ synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction (SXRPD), ... -
From Chondrocytes to Chondrons, Maintenance of Phenotype and Matrix Production in a Composite 3D Hydrogel Scaffold
(2/2/2022)Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease characterized by articular cartilage (AC) degradation that affects more than 30 million people in the USA. OA is managed with symptom-alleviating medications. Matrix-assisted ... -
Hydrocracking of Octacosane and Cobalt Fischer–Tropsch Wax over Nonsulfided NiMo and Pt-Based Catalysts
(9/30/2021)The effect of activation environment (N<sub>2</sub>, H<sub>2</sub> and H<sub>2</sub>S/H<sub>2</sub>) on the hydrocracking performance of a NiMo/Al catalyst was studied at 380 °C and 3.5 MPa using octacosane (C<sub>28</sub>). ... -
Influence of Cs Promoter on Ethanol Steam-Reforming Selectivity of Pt/m-ZrO2 Catalysts at Low Temperature
(9/14/2021)The decarboxylation pathway in ethanol steam reforming ultimately favors higher selectivity to hydrogen over the decarbonylation mechanism. The addition of an optimized amount of Cs to Pt/m-ZrO<sub>2</sub> catalysts increases ... -
Promoting the Selectivity of Pt/m-ZrO2 Ethanol Steam Reforming Catalysts with K and Rb Dopants
(8/29/2021)The ethanol steam reforming reaction (ESR) was investigated on unpromoted and potassium- and rubidium-promoted monoclinic zirconia-supported platinum (Pt/m-ZrO<sub>2</sub>) catalysts. Evidence from in situ diffuse reflectance ...
