Industrial NOx control via H2-SCR on a novel supported-Pt nanocatalyst
(2011)We describe here the performance of a novel MgO-CeO2-supported Pt nanocatalyst (∼1.5nm mean Pt particle size) towards the selective conversion of NO (XNO>90%) into N2 (SN2>80%) using H2 (H2-SCR) in the low-temperature range ...

Low-temperature purification of gas streams from phenol by steam reforming over novel supported-Rh catalysts
(2010)The purification of gas streams from phenol at low-temperatures (350-550 °C) was investigated by its reaction with steam over novel catalytic systems, namely 0.5 wt% Rh supported on Ce0.15Zr0.85O2, Ce0.15Zr0.83Mg0.02O2 and ...

The phenol steam reforming reaction towards H2 production on natural calcite
(2009)The steam reforming of phenol towards H2 production was studied in the 650-800 °C range over a natural pre-calcined (air, 850 °C) calcite material. The effects of reaction temperature, water, hydrogen, and carbon dioxide ...
