Hollow alumina nanospheres as novel catalyst for the conversion of methanol to dimethyl ether
This paper investigates hollow and porous alumina nanospheres that were previously synthesized to be used for the dehydration of methanol to dimethyl ether (DME). As hollow nanostructures possess characteristics such as low density and high surface to volume ratio, their catalytic activity between hollow and porous structure is compared. For this purpose, three most important parameters (acidit...
متن کاملDirect Dimethyl Ether Fuel Cell with Much Improved Performance
Due to several apparent advantages over methanol, dimethyl ether (DME) has been viewed as a promising alternative fuel for direct fuel cell technology. Similar to methanol, DME oxidation requires a surface oxidant, such as OH, for the removal of adsorbed CO. Consequently, the reaction occurs at much faster rates on binary PtRu catalysts than Pt alone. In this work, PtRu catalysts with a wide va...
متن کاملAnode Catalysts for the Direct Dimethyl Ether Fuel Cell
For the last decade, dimethyl ether (DME) has been considered a promising alternative fuel for direct fuel cells because of several advantages over methanol. In this work, PtRu catalysts with a wide range of Pt-to-Ru ratios were screened for the direct DME fuel cell (DDMEFC) performance for the first time. Overall, Pt50Ru50 performs best in the high and middle voltage ranges, whereas Pt80Ru20 p...

متن کاملApplication of Novel Gamma Alumina Nano Structure for Preparation of Dimethyl ether from Methanol
In this study, preparation of nano-sized gamma alumina with high specific surface area and high yield by thereaction between aluminum nitrate and sodium carbonate, without using any surfactant is reported. Bohemite (Aluminum oxyhydroxide) was prepared as a precursor by strict control of pH and reaction temperature. The gel produced was purified by washing fol...
