Thermal chemical conversion of plastics waste for production of carbon nanotubes (2018)
Thesis
Liu, X. (2018). Thermal chemical conversion of plastics waste for production of carbon nanotubes. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4223301

With continuous growth for more than 50 years, global plastics production increased to 336 million tonnes in 2016, and over 27 million tonnes of post-consumer plastic wastes were produced. Waste management is necessary to minimise the plastic waste i... Read More about Thermal chemical conversion of plastics waste for production of carbon nanotubes.

Tailored mesoporous silica supports for Ni catalysed hydrogen production from ethanol steam reforming (2016)
Journal Article
Parlett, C. M., Aydin, A., Durndell, L. J., Frattini, L., Isaacs, M. A., Lee, A. F., …Wu, C. (2017). Tailored mesoporous silica supports for Ni catalysed hydrogen production from ethanol steam reforming. Catalysis communications, 91, 76-79. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.catcom.2016.12.021

Mesoporous silica supported Ni nanoparticles have been investigated for hydrogen production from ethanol steam reforming. Ethanol reforming is structure-sensitive over Ni, and also dependent on support mesostructure; three-dimensional KIT-6 possessin...
