Abstract:
Despite the benefits of fuel cell technology its advancement to being commercially functional is hindered by a number of crucial factors. These factors are often associated with the lack of appropriate materials or manufacturing routes that would enable the cost of electricity per kWh to compete with existing technology. Whilst most research efforts have been directed towards developing more active catalysts, the amount of catalyst required in the fuel cell can be further reduced by improving the platinum utilisation in the membrane electrode assembly. The platinum utilisation is a strong func

The aim of this thesis work is focused on the development and characterization of nanostructured catalysts, in order to exploit them in two different reactions: the Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR) and the CO2 Reduction Reaction (CO2RR). The objective of this research is to find economical and ecological materials that could replace platinum as catalyst of the two reactions, while maintaining comparable performance. Considering the ORR, the study is concentrated on the manganese oxide family (MnxOy), structured in the form of nanofibers by electrospinning technique and subsequent thermal treat

Abstract:
Hydrogen production from solar-driven water splitting (WS) reaction is considered a promising way to store solar energy. This process can be achieved directly by means of a photo-electrochemical cell (PEC), where light absorption, charge separation and WS occur in a single device; or indirectly, by coupling a photovoltaic device to an electrolyzer. WS is a thermodynamically uphill reaction, formed by two half reactions, i.e. the reduction of protons into H2 and the oxidation of water into O2. From a kinetic point of view, the latter is the most challenging one, being generally considered as th

Abstract:
Nowadays it is imperative to develop economical and energy-efficient processes for the sustainable production of fuels and chemicals alternative to the ones deriving from petroleum. Climate change and air quality are major environmental concerns because they directly affect the way we live and breathe. In order to meet the present and future threats generated by emissions to the atmosphere, environmental agencies around the world have issued more stringent regulations. One of them is the control of residual sulfur in diesel fuel and emission standards for particulates from diesel vehicles. All

Abstract:
Mycobacterium tuberculosis catalase-peroxidase (KatG) is a bifunctional hemoprotein which activates isoniazid (INH), a pro-drug that is integral to frontline antituberculosis treatments. The activated species, an isonicotinoyl radical, couples to NAD+/NADH forming an isoniazid-NADH adduct that ultimately confers anti-tubercular activity. In order to better understand the mechanisms of isoniazid activation as well as the origins of KatG-derived INH-resistance, we have compared the catalytic properties of the wild-type enzyme to twenty-three KatG mutants which have been associated with isoniazid

Abstract:
The methanol-to-olefins reaction is an important industrial process for the production of light olefins (C2-C4). Silicoaluminophosphates are the most common catalysts for this process with SAPO-34 (CHA), SAPO-18 (AEI) and their intergrowths being considered the most catalytically active and selective. Understanding the crystal growth of such materials is important for control of the structure and defect incorporation, which can have a large effect on the catalytic behaviour. In this thesis, the synthesis, characterisation, catalysis and crystal growth of such materials are investigated. A seri

Abstract:
The present Ph.D. thesis deals with the hydrogen production via a novel process involving a biogas autothermal reforming (ATR) unit with the adoption of a catalytic wall-flow filter located downstream from the ATR processor to effectively filter and in-situ gasify the carbon emissions eventually generated. This work was aimed to produce 50 Nm3/h of green hydrogen from the ATR of a model biogas (60:40 Vol ratio) by using catalytic structured supports. Moreover, a solution for the eventual carbon formation during the biogas ATR was addressed. A nanostructured delafossite catalyst to ensure the g

The present Ph.D. thesis provides some examples of innovative 2nd generation catalytic processes for the conversion of renewable raw materials into green value-added chemicals. In particular, D-glucose and some its derivatives, all ideally representing waste materials of dedicated biomasses, agricultural residues, or solid organic urban waste exploitation in the biorefinery plant, were converted into useful chemical building-blocks.

De par leur aptitude à relaxer les contraintes, les NFs sont d’un grand intérêt. C’est dans ce contexte que s’est déroulée cette thèse axée sur la croissance autocatalysée de NFs InP sur Silicium par épitaxie directe.
