Journal ArticleDOI

Fischer-Tropsch synthesis on anchored Co/Nb2O5/Al2O3 catalysts: the nature of the surface and the effect on chain growth.

TL;DR: DRIFTS and selectivity results suggest that these sites might be responsible for the reaction chain growth and therefore for the drastic change in the selectivity of CH4 and C5+ hydrocarbons mainly on the Co/Nb2O5 catalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diesel soot combustion on Mo/Al2O3 and V/Al2O3 catalysts: investigation of the active catalytic species

TL;DR: In this paper, the reactivity of Mo/Al2O3 and V/Al 2O3 catalysts for soot combustion, and the influence of their volatile and superficial dispersed species, was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective CO oxidation in the presence of H2 over Pt and Pt-Sn catalysts supported on niobia

TL;DR: In this article, the removal of CO from hydrogen-rich stream to a PEMFC tolerant level, by selective oxidation (SELOX) of CO, has been studied over 1%Pt/Al 2 O 3, 1%pt-1%Sn/Al O 3 and 1% pt/Nb 2 O 5 -supported catalysts.
Journal ArticleDOI

In situ characterizations of Pd/Al2O3 and Pd/CeO2/Al2O3 catalysts for oxidative steam reforming of propane

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of XRD in situ were applied to investigate nanostructure features by means of a Rietveld refinement giving additional information about ceria lattice parameter along the reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface Sites of Pd/CeO2/Al2O3 Catalysts in the Partial Oxidation of Propane

TL;DR: In this article, a Pd-supported Al2O3 catalyst promoted by ceria was used for propane oxidation in a monolayer over alumina, where the surface sites were identified by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) in a pretreatment chamber.
