When: 23 April 2024, 15:00 – 16:00 GMTWhere: Online A webinar on the One step process for generating ultra pure alloy nanoparticle catalysts from Dr. Vicky Broadley, Nikalyte Ltd. Electrochemical splitting of water offers a zero-carbon method for converting renewable energy to hydrogen. Economical production requires electrocatalysts that reduce the overpotentials…
When: 17 – 18 June 2024Where: Pickavance Theatre (Building R22), Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Harwell Campus, Fermi Avenue, Didcot, Oxfordshire, OX11 0QX We are holding our annual summer conference on the 17th and 18th of June. The conference will take place at the Pickavance Theatre (Building R22), Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Harwell…
When: 18 March 2024, 3-4pm GMTWhere: Online A webinar from Dr. Jennifer Edwards, Cardiff University, Senior Lecturer in Catalytic and Physical Chemistry and Director of EDI. On exposure to water, air and sunlight photocatalysts will generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) that have high oxidising potentials. These ROS can be used in…
When: 12 October, 1-2pm BSTWhere: Online A seminar on DFT & kinetic modeling of the methanol to olefins process with Prof. Dr. Felix Studt from Institute of Catalysis Research and Technology on 12 October. The methanol-to-olefins (MTO) process over the acidic zeolite H-SSZ-13 is investigated using periodic density functional theory…
When: 11 October 2023, 10:00 – 11:00 BSTWhere: Online Lignin is the only renewable natural resource with abundant aromatics in nature, and it’s highly desirable to develop cheap and efficient catalysts to obtain value-added aromatics from lignin. We initially employed a cheap platinum-like Tungsten carbide catalyst for lignin hydrogenolysis and explored…
When: 6 October 2023, 15:00 BSTWhere: Online The evaluation of catalysts through testing is ubiquitous in laboratories world wide, and there are many textbooks and literature articles that describe in varying levels of detail how such tests should be undertaken. In the chemical industry, catalyst testing also forms an essential…
When: 3 October 2023Where: Online This webinar continues our look at our pathfinder activities in the current phase. The subject of this webinar is experimental data capture in catalysis research. This is the focus of Pathfinder 1 which is led by Abraham Nieva de la Hidalga. Experimental Data Capture: producing…
When: 23 May 2023, 15:00 BSTWhere: Online Carbon supported metal catalysts play an important role in the electrification of the chemical production. In this webinar, an overview on how advanced characterization techniques, and particularly synchrotron based spectroscopic techniques, can aid the design of these materials will be provided. Examples include…
When: 9 May 2023, 15:00 BSTWhere: Online The UK Catalysis Hub are hosting a webinar on opportunities in chemical sciences with a next generation XFEL. In this webinar we will briefly overview the questions: what is an XFEL and what can they do in chemical sciences? We will discuss how…
When: 28 April 2023, 15:00 BSTWhere: Online Methanol is an important platform chemical and is made on the industrial scale using heterogeneous catalysts. It is currently made in an extremely unsustainable manner, and new routes are needed, utilising ‘green’ hydrogen. The mechanism of the surface reactions involved and work relating…
