Emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is one of the major contributors to air
pollution. The main sources of VOCs are petroleum refineries, fuel combustions, chemical …

Natural gas (with methane as its main component) provides an attractive energy source
because of its large abundance and its high heat of combustion per mole of carbon dioxide …

Defects may display high reactivity because the specific arrangement of atoms differs from
crystalline surfaces. We demonstrate that high-temperature steam pretreatment of palladium …

Catalytic combustion of methane is a promising way of eliminating fugitive methane
emissions to meet the rising requirement of the wide application of natural gas vehicles. The …

Modern lean-operated internal combustion engines running on natural gas, biogas or
methane produced from wind or solar energy are highly fuel-efficient and can greatly …

Perovskites can be described by the general formula ABO3, A and B being two cations and
O being an oxygen anion. They represent probably the most studied mixed-oxide system in …

The strong metal‐support interaction (SMSI) is widely used in supported metal catalysts and
extensive studies have been performed to understand it. Although considerable progress …

Increasing the use of natural gas engines is an important step to reduce the carbon footprint
of mobility and power generation sectors. To avoid emissions of unburnt methane and the …

Understanding the structural dynamics/evolution of catalysts and the related surface
chemistry is essential for establishing structure–catalysis relationships, where spectroscopic …

Replacing traditional fossil fuels with sustainable and clean energy has been imperative in
order to address the occurrent energy and environmental crises. During this foreseen global …
