Catalysis by gold has rapidly become a hot topic in chemistry, with a new discovery being
made almost every week. Gold is equally effective as a heterogeneous or a homogeneous …

Abstract Die Katalyse durch Gold ist schnell ein “heißes Thema” der Chemie geworden–fast
wöchentlich werden neue Entdeckungen gemacht. Gold ist gleichermaßen als heterogener …

Hydrogen is considered to be the most viable energy carrier for the future. Producing
hydrogen from ethanol steam reforming would not only be environmentally friendly but also …

Gold has traditionally been regarded as inactive as a catalytic metal. However, the advent of
nanoparticulate gold on high surface area oxide supports has demonstrated its high catalytic …

The production of hydrogen containing very low levels of carbon monoxide for use in
polymer electrolyte fuel cells requires the development of catalysts that show very high …

The water‐gas shift (WGS) reaction is a well‐known step for upgrading carbon monoxide to
hydrogen in the production of synthesis gas. For more than 90 years after its first industrial …

Density functional theory calculations for the CeO2 (111) surface doped with Au, Ag, and Cu
show that the bond between the oxygen atoms and the oxide is weakened by presence of …

Chemical-looping steam methane reforming (CL-SMR) is a promising method for the co-
generation of pure hydrogen and syngas on the basis of redox cycles via a gas–solid …

Low-content (< 0.6 at.%) gold-ceria samples were prepared by one-pot synthesis by the
urea gelation/co-precipitation method, and by sodium cyanide leaching of high-content …

The field of nanoscience has undergone tremendous growth in the past decade as the
number of applications of nanoparticles and nanostructured materials have proliferated …
