Journal ArticleDOI
Zeolite and molecular sieve synthesis
Mark E. Davis,Raul F. Lobo +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the ability to plan zeolite and molecular sieve syntheses is discussed and a strategy for synthesizing chiral zeolites is used to demonstrate the current limitations in "designing" new molecular sieves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation into the shape selectivity of zeolite catalysts for biomass conversion
Jungho Jae,Geoffrey A. Tompsett,Andrew J. Foster,Karl D. Hammond,Scott M. Auerbach,Raul F. Lobo,George W. Huber +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of zeolite pore size and shape selectivity on the conversion of glucose to aromatics was investigated, and it was shown that large pore spaces and steric hindrance play a major role for aromatic production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Porous silica via colloidal crystallization
TL;DR: In this article, modified colloidal crystals are used as templates for silica polymerization, yielding products with highly uniform and structured pores of tuneable size in the submicrometre region.
Journal ArticleDOI
The ammonia selective catalytic reduction activity of copper-exchanged small-pore zeolites
TL;DR: The NH3-SCR activity of small-pore zeolites, such as Cu-SSZ-13 and Cu-SAPO-34, was investigated using a high-throughput reactor system in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cycloaddition of Biomass-Derived Furans for Catalytic Production of Renewable p-Xylene
C. Luke Williams,Chun-Chih Chang,Phuong T. M. Do,Nima Nikbin,Stavros Caratzoulas,Dionisios G. Vlachos,Raul F. Lobo,Wei Fan,Paul J. Dauenhauer +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a renewable route to p-xylene from biomass-derived dimethylfuran and ethylene was investigated with zeolite catalysts, and the observed reaction rates and computed energy barriers were consistent with a two-step reaction that proceeds through a bicyclic adduct prior to dehydration to pxylene.
