• Catalytic Oxidation of NO over LaCo1−xBxO3 (B = Mn, Ni) Perovskites for Nitric Acid Production 

      Salman, Ata ul Rauf; Hyrve, Signe Marit; Regli, Samuel K.; Zubair, Muhammad; Enger, Bjørn Christian; Lødeng, Rune; waller, david; Rønning, Magnus (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Abstract Nitric acid (HNO3) is an important building block in the chemical industry. Industrial production takes place via the Ostwald process, where oxidation of NO to NO2 is one of the three chemical steps. The reaction ...
    • Catalytic oxidation of NO to NO2 for nitric acid production 

      Salman, Ata ul Rauf (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:376, Doctoral thesis, 2019)
    • Catalytic oxidation of NO to NO2 for nitric acid production over a Pt/Al2O3 catalyst 

      Salman, Ata ul Rauf; Enger, Bjørn Christian; Auvray, Xavier; Lødeng, Rune; Menon, Mohan; Waller, David; Rønning, Magnus (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      The oxidation of nitric oxide (NO) to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is a key step both in NOx abatement technologies as well as in the Ostwald process for nitric acid production. A 1 wt.% Pt/Al2O3 catalyst was used to study ...
    • Efficient catalysts for achieving NO /NO2 equilibrium 

      Lid, Mads Alexander (Master thesis, 2016)
      The aim of this work was to characterize an alumina supported Pt catalyst before and after post- and pre-modification with WO3. A 2wt%Ru/Al2O3 and a WO3/ZrO2 catalyst were also characterized. Pt/Al2O3 with a loading of ...
    • Hydrophobic Catalyst Support Surfaces by Silylation of γ-Alumina for Co/Re Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis 

      Rytter, Erling; Salman, Ata ul Rauf; Tsakoumis, Nikolaos; Myrstad, Rune; Yang, Jia; Lögdberg, Sara; Holmen, Anders; Rønning, Magnus (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Eight different silanes with chloro or methoxy active ligands have been examined to modify the surface of a standard γ-alumina support to investigate the effect of surface acidity and hydrophobicity in Fischer-Tropsch ...
    • Supported Manganese Oxide Catalysts for NO Oxidation in Nitric Acid Production 

      Østrådt, Beate Meisland (Master thesis, 2018)
      Nitric acid is an important bulk chemical in the petrochemical industry, and the main product is ammonium nitrate for fertilizers. It is produced by the Ostwald process, where one of three chemical steps is the oxidation ...
    • Surface Modified γ-Alumina Supports For Cobalt Fischer-Tropsch Catalysts 

      Salman, Ata ul Rauf (Master thesis, 2015)
      Fischer-Tropsch synthesis over cobalt based catalysts is an important route for the conversion of syngas, derived from natural gas, to liquid fuels. Fischer-Tropsch performance of cobalt catalysts depends on a number of ...
    • Tuning of perovskite composition for NO oxidation 

      Hyrve, Signe Marit (Master thesis, 2018)
      Nitric acid (HNO3) is an important building block in the chemical industry, and special for production of fertilizers. It is manufactured by the Ostwald process, where oxidizing NO to NO2 is one of the three chemical steps. ...
