Description:
The topics of the thesis is addressed to Master’s students of chemistry, chemical engineering, physics, material science, and engineering. The research will aim to obtain and characterize solid catalysts and apply them in oxidation reactions, such as gas-phase reactions (hydrocarbons or CO oxidations) or liquid-phase reactions (alcohols or biomass oxidation).
The project's task will be synthesizing catalysts using different strategies, resulting in well-designed morphology, pore structure, and composition. Moreover, the student will perform physicochemical characterization (such as N2 physisorption, microcopies, thermoprogrammed analyses, and diffraction methods). Measurements of catalytic activity will also be done and require a predisposition to work in a chemical laboratory and knowledge of the English language
