Research

Schematic diagram showing the main CPPE research pillars

 

Research areas:

  • Heterogeneous catalysis
  • Reactor design (Optical accessible catalytic plate reactor, micro-channel reactor)
  • Spatially-resolved measurements of gas species, adsorbed surface species and catalyst surface temperature
  • Understanding reaction mechanisms
  • Kinetic parameter estimation and model discrimination
  • Design of energy efficient processes
  • Plasma sources and power supplies
  • Plasma chemistry

Processes:

  • Syngas- and CO2- Methanation
  • Power-to-Gas process
  • Hydrogenation
  • Methane conversion
  • Catalyzed gasification
  • Circular fuels (e.g. NH3 as a H2 carrier, CxHyOz + H2 ⇔ CxH(y+2)Oz)
  • Catalyst synthesis
  • Nanomaterial synthesis
  • Powder synthesis, surface modification and recycling
