Enhanced methane reforming activity of a hydrothermally synthesised co-doped perovskite catalyst (2018)
Journal Article
Khazaal, M. H., Staniforth, J. Z., Alfatlawi, Z. A., Ormerod, R. M., & Darton, R. (2018). Enhanced methane reforming activity of a hydrothermally synthesised co-doped perovskite catalyst. Energy and Fuels, 32(12), 12826–12832. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.energyfuels.8b02848

A catalyst for the direct reforming of methane and simulated biogas has been prepared using a green and low temperature hydrothermal method. The nickel and iron co-doped SrZrO3 perovskite shows catalytic activity comparable to 10% Ni/Al2O3, but with...

The use of copper hydroxyphosphate (Cu2PO4OH), also called libethenite, as a near-infrared (NIR) absorbing additive has been investigated. Samples were synthesized by using a hydrothermal treatment or simple wet chemical processing, which was later e...

A combination of postsynthesis modifications and ion exchange aiming to obtain basic cation-rich hierarchical zeolites X and Y was utilized in this work for the preparation of catalysts for biofuel production from vegetable oils. The secondary mesopo... Read More about Nanostructured Zeolites: The Introduction of Intracrystalline Mesoporosity in Basic Faujasite-Type Catalysts.
