This book provides a review of worldwide developments in ammonia synthesis catalysts
over the last 30 years. It focuses on the new generation of Fe1-xO based catalysts and …

Supported Ru catalysts for NH3 synthesis were prepared from Ru3 (CO) 12 and high-purity
MgO and Al2O3. In addition to aqueous impregnation with alkali nitrates, two non-aqueous …

The rates of xylose hydrogenation (373K, 4 MPa of hydrogen) and of glycerol
hydrogenolysis (483 K, 6 MPa of hydrogen) are higher on large ruthenium particles …

In many heterogeneous catalysts, the interaction of supported metal species with a matrix
can alter the electronic and morphological properties of the metal and manipulate its …

The selective reduction of primary amides to the corresponding amines is a key reaction in
both pharmaceutical chemistry and the polymer industry; yet, it requires a stoichiometric …

Ru/alumina catalysts (0.21–5.11 wt% Ru) were characterized using temperature
programmed reduction (TPR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and H2 and CO …

The study considered the formation and catalytic properties of the active sites in Pd/C and
Ru/C catalysts supported on carbon nanotubes (CNT) and carbon black (CB). The nature of …

CO2reforming of CH4over Ru supported on η-Al2O3, TiO2, and high-surface-area carbon
black was investigated, and the catalysts were characterized using chemisorption, X-ray …

Hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene (CNB) has been studied, in methanol suspension, at
303 K and atmospheric pressure, over alumina, magnesia, titania and graphite supported …

Ru nanoparticles supported on γ-Al2O3, prepared by reduction of RuCl3 in ethylene glycol
with using microwave irradiation, were thoroughly characterized by ICP-AES, BET, XRD …
