Velocys combines transformative technology, operational expertise and a partnership approach to deliver sustainable fuels technology to our clients. Velocys Group was formed by the merger of Oxford Catalysts in the…
HARWELL, OXFORD -The UK Catalysis Hub have named Dr. Alexander O’Malley from the University of Bath as winner of the Sir John Meurig Thomas Catalysis Medal at the UK Catalysis…
The National Research facility in PES is up for renewal next year and, as is usual, the current operators (HarwellXPS) have been asked to explore what it is the community…
The ACG Applied Catalysis award is now open for nominations! There is a dedicated page for the award and it is also listed on the ACG page Applied Catalysis interest…
Methanol to hydrocarbons (MTH) is an important petrochemical process due to its ability to replace conventional fossil fuels (e.g., coal and crude oil) based gasoline, olefins and aromatics production with…
The scale of time is important in chemistry. A typical catalytic reaction has turnover frequencies ranging from 0.01 to 10 or even 103 s-1. A complete turnover usually contains adsorption of…
Recent developments in synchrotron radiation facilities and X-ray optics have further expanded the X-ray analytical toolbox for operando studies. These X-ray tools allow to follow the structure of the catalytic…
Liquid-phase transmission electron microscopy offers a unique combination of nanometer spatial resolution and millisecond temporal resolution. It has provided many useful insights into nanoscale reaction dynamics but achieving sub-nanometer resolution…
Organic Structure Directing Agents (OSDAs) play a central role in synthesis of zeolites. Typically, OSDAs consist in tetraalkylammonium cations that are trapped inside of the voids of zeolites. The positive…
To achieve net zero, captured carbon dioxide must be efficiently utilised and recycled. A research team led by Dr Simon Kondrat (Loughborough University) and the UK Catalysis Hub are developing…
