Structured Catalytic Systems for Biofuels Production

The work in this thesis explores a novel catalyst support design. In this design a macro-porous basis is used to immobilize a layer of carbon nanofibers (CNFs) agglomerates with the possible addition of a grown CNF binder layer. The synthesis of this grown CNF binder layer poses additional fundamental questions on CNF growth.
The produced catalyst support is tested for activity and selectivity in a fast
heterogeneous reaction, in this case nitrite hydrogenation in liquid phase.

In this thesis we investigated CO2 mediated ethylbenzene dehydrogenation (EBDH) as a model reaction in order to probe intrinsic surface reactivity of tailored cerium oxide nanoparticles.
Roger Brunet Espinosa promoted June 3rd 2016
This work aimed at fabricating structured catalytic reactors for fast multiphase reactions, namely, nitrite hydrogenation and H2O2 decomposition. These reactors allowed a better understanding of these reactions and an improvement in terms of catalytic activity and selectivity.
