Project

Understanding the material structure-activity correlation in plasma catalytic CO2 conversion (PLASMACAT).

Till now, plasma catalysis has been studied in different reactors, under divergent conditions and in a fragmented way, making it difficult to obtain systematic information on the different aspects of plasma catalysis. Therefore, the aim of this project is to study the impact of materials, controlled in particular properties (properties of the support such as shape, metal dispersion and metal-support interaction), that have not been studied in a systematic way before, to elucidate some of the underlying mechanisms and properties not yet identified. Specifically, this project aims at unravelling the impact of catalyst dispersion to better understand the impact of the properties of the deposited catalyst with respect to activity, selectivity and its stability in dry reforming of CO2 and methane
