Deactivation of cobalt and nickel catalysts in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and methanation JAVIER BARRIENTOS Akademisk avhandling som med tillstånd av KTH i Stockholm framlägges till offentlig granskning för avläggande av teknologie doktorsexamen fredagen den 23 september kl. " True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us....

Surface modification of 600-µm-sized monodisperse gamma-alumina microspheres into magnesium–aluminum spinel, and co-impregnation-based loading Rh–Ni (0.46 wt% Rh, 9.03 Ni) were performed to synthesize catalysts for diesel-steam-reforming hydrogen. The intimate interactions between Rh Ni, the formation alloy, Rh-doping-induced decrease in particle size Ni determined. DFT calculations results rev...

Vanadium-modified (SiO2/MgO/MgCl2)•TiClx Ziegler-Natta catalysts were prepared through co-impregnation of water-soluble magnesium and vanadium salts under different pH values. Several key factors such as pH value of co-impregnation solution during catalyst preparation, catalyst performances including catalytic activity, ethylene/1-hexene copolymerization and hydrogen response were investigated....

Synthesis of magnesium nickel oxide phase such as MgxNi1-xO solid solutions has been studied in this research article using mechnochmical reaction between magnesium and nickel oxide. Mixtures of magnesium powder and nickel oxide (Mg+NiO) with stoichiometric compositions were milled for different times in a planetary ball mill. Reduction reaction of nickel oxide by magnesium via a mechanically i...

the data on the effect of ethylene concentration on polymerization rate for several modifications of modern highly active titanium–magnesium catalysts ticl4/mgcl2 are presented. these catalysts differ in titanium content and conditions of support preparation, activities, and the shape of kinetic curves. it is found that the observed order of polymerization rate with respect to ethylene in the r...

Background: Implant-associated infections are a result of bacterial adhesion to an implant surface and subsequent biofilm formation at the implantation site. This study compares different magnesium materials based on their ability to resist bacterial adhesion as well as further biofilm formation. Material and Methods: The surfaces of four magnesium-based materials (Mg2Ag, Mg10Gd, WE43 and 99.99...

In Ziegler-Natta olefin polymerization, the pore architecture of catalysts plays a crucial role in catalytic performances and polymer properties. While the type of preparation routes (such as chemical reaction and solution precipitation) greatly affects the catalyst pore architecture as a result of different solidification mechanisms, the modification of the pore architecture within a given rou...
