Pt and Pt-Sn catalysts supported on oxidized carbon nanotubes were prepared by multiple potentiostatic pulses and tested for ethanol and ethylene glycol electro-oxidation in sulfuric acid. The composed nanostructured ...

Mn-Cu mixed oxides were deposited by ultrasonic impregnation on ceramic honeycomb monoliths. Its catalytic performance was evaluated in the combustion of ethanol and n-hexane, VOC molecules of different chemical nature. ...

Four carbon supported PtCu nanostructured catalysts with Pt:Cu atomic ratios of 1:3.20, 1:2.23, 1:0.61 and 1:0.35 were synthesized by a two-step route, involving the chemical reduction of Cu ions on the carbon support, ...

In the present work, the influence of nickel oxide as a co-catalyst of Pt nanoparticles for the electro-oxidation of ethanol in the temperature range of 23-60 °C was investigated. The carbon supported nickel oxide and ...

Catalysts V-MCM-41 with different V contents (0.09-0.90 wt.%), synthesized by the template ion-exchange (TIE) method, have been investigated for acetaldehyde production by selective oxidation of ethanol, studying the effects ...

In this work, we prepared four electrocatalysts based on trimetallic PtPdNi nanoparticles on different carbon supports, i. e., i) two activated carbons produced from biomass, ii) micro‐mesoporous carbon synthesized by the ...

This paper is aimed at presenting a methodology for the simultaneous synthesis of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) based systems and their associated heat exchangers network (HEN). The optimization model is formulated as a ...

Carbon supported Pt-Ru catalysts were prepared by multiple cycles of potentiostatic pulses from aqueous diluted chloroplatinic acid and ruthenium chloride solutions in the presence of ethanol or ethylene glycol at pH 2 and ...

In this work, a novel way to indirectly store and produce H2 from ethanol was investigated using a two-step process based on the reduction of iron oxide followed by oxidation with H2O. The reduction of different iron oxides, ...

Ethanol content of wine has increased over the last decades as consequence of searching phenolic maturity, requiring increased grape maturity. This may result in the production of wines with excessive alcohol levels ...
