Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) and how to accelerate the development and commercialization of carbon capture technologies and carbon-based products in the European and United States markets

Soto, Alicia (Date of defense: 2021-11-04)

The main theme of this work revolves around the CO2 molecule, a stable waste gas of low value, low energy and often available in large quantities in different places. This work examines some viable avenues for capturing, ...

Catalytic hydrogen production over RhPd/CeO2 catalysts and CO purification over Au/TiO2 catalysts

Jiménez Divins, Núria (Date of defense: 2015-04-10)

This Thesis focuses on the study of the catalytic production of hydrogen from a biofuel, namely the bioethanol. It also studies the subsequent purification of pre-cleaned reformate streams. The end use of the hydrogen ...

Hydrogen production from bioethanol using cobalt hydrotalcites

Espinal Bustos, Raúl Uziel (Date of defense: 2013-12-20)

Hydrogen constitutes a promising alternative to manage our energy supply more efficiently. Hydrogen can be stored and used in fuel cells to produce electricity, where it combines with the oxygen present in the air and ...

Island-based polygeneration systems : feasibility of bBiomass-driven distributed concepts

Wegener, Moritz (Date of defense: 2021-02-12)

The colossal risks and challenges posed by climate change require innovative solutions that must fulfil energy service demands sustainably. The concept of small-scale, biomass-based polygeneration (SBP) is one such ...

Producción fotocatalítica de H2 con microrreactores y cristales fotónicos

Castedo Rodríguez, Alejandra (Date of defense: 2018-09-21)

The depletion of fossil fuels and increase of global warming lead to a high demand for alternative energy sources that should be cheap and renewable to fulfill the future energy demand. The photocatalytic generation of H2 ...
