CLIMIT-Program for CO2-håndtering

Capturing of CO2 with solid, enzyme inspired non volatile sorbents.

I dette prosjektet forsøker vi å lage materialer som kopierer naturens måte å fange inn CO2 på. Fotosyntese er en av naturens største og viktigste prosesser. Det første trinnet i denne prosessen er en svært selektiv innfangning av CO2 fra atmosfæren. Denne CO2 fangsten gjøres av enzymet RuBisCO....

ENERGIX-Stort program energi

N-INNER High permeance nano porous tubular zeolite membranes for efficient separation of CO2 and methanol at demanding conditions

Separasjon av, ioner og molekyler i væske og molekyler i gasser, er viktig både for naturlige og industrielle prosesser. Naturen har utviklet ekstremt selektive membraner som er en del av celle-veggene til alle levende organismer. For industrielle prosesser er de fleste membranene basert på pol...

GASSMAKS-Økt verdiskaping fra naturgass

Zeolite membranes for CO2 separation

Zeolites are microporous minerals with the potential for utilization in novel applications, i.e. zeolite membranes. This project is a collaboration between the research groups led by professors Lillerud at University of Oslo (OU), Norway and Hedlund at Lu leå University of Technology (LTU), Swede...

FRINAT-Matematikk og naturvitenskap

Conversion of natural gas to hydrocarbons over acidic zeolite type catalysts.

The high oil price and concern for CO2 emission make processes for conversion of natural gas to fuel and chemicals highly desirable. First generation catalysts and processes exists, UOP/Hydros MTO, Exxon/Mobile?s MTG, Haldor Topsøes TIGAS. All processes h ave a large potential for improvement, pa...

KOSK-Katalyse og organisk syntetisk kjemi

Reaction mechanism elucidations in carbocation mediated hydrocarbon reactions over acidic zeolite type catalysts

This project supports the running cost for a commercial program package from Accelrys, specially designed for modeling heterogeneous catalysis and material science. In modern chemical research it is a prerequisite to combine the power of experimental kn owledge with insight obtained from a quan...

KOSK-Katalyse og organisk syntetisk kjemi

Carbocation mediated hydrocarbon reactions over acidic zeolite type catalysts

This programme covers a concentrated effort from SINTEF and UiO to study reaction mechanisms influenced by structural and chemical effects using acid zeolite type materials. Investigations of the methanol to hydrocarbon reactions (MTH) will be a central part of the programme with focus on the elu...
