A single crystal study of the silver-catalysed selective oxidation and total oxidation of ethylene

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the performance of both partial and total oxidization of Ag(111) single crystal surface at pressures of up to 50 Torr, and showed that H-transfer rather than C-C cleavage is rate-determining in the combustion of both ethylene and ethylene oxide.

Catalytic Decomposition of Nitric Oxide on Zirconia by Electrolytic Removal of Oxygen

TL;DR: In this paper, the rate of decomposition of the air-pollutant species, nitric oxide, to harmless species (via the reaction: ) was found to be markedly catalyzed when a potential above 1V was applied across a zirconia disk coated with either a porous platinum or porous gold electrode.

The relationship of adsorbed species observed by infrared spectroscopy to the mechanism of ethylene oxidation over silver

TL;DR: In this article, a combined infrared and kinetic investigation was performed on the oxidation of ethylene over a silver catalyst, and a mechanism was developed to interpret both the epoxidation and combustion processes.

Infrared spectra of adsorbed species present during the oxidation of ethylene over silver

TL;DR: In this article, infrared spectra of the adsorbed species present on the surface of a silver catalyst during the oxidation of ethylene were presented as a function of time using a batch recirculation reactor, and the interpretation of the spectra recorded under reaction conditions was facilitated by comparison of these spectra with those obtained during the individual adsorption of reactants and products.
