چکیده
The performances of different promoters (CeO2, ZrO2 and Ce0.5Zr0.5O2 solid solution) modified Pd/SiC catalysts for methane combustion are studied. XRD and XPS results showed that Zr 4+ could be incorporated into the CeO2 lattice to form Zr0.5Ce0.5O2 solid solution. The catalytic activities of Pd/CeO2/SiC and Pd/ZrO2/SiC are lower than that of Pd/Zr0.5Ce0.5O2/SiC. The Pd/Zr0.5Ce0.5O2/SiC catalyst can ignite the reaction at 240 o C and obtain a methane conversion of 100% at 340 o C, and keep 100 % methane conversion after 10 reaction cycles. These results indicate that active metallic nanoparticles are well stabilized on the SiC surface while the promoters serve as oxygen reservoir and retain good redox properties.

Avoiding Loss of Catalytic Activity of Pd Nanoparticles Partially Embedded in Nanoditches in SiC Nanowires
Nanoditches from selective etching of periodically twinned SiC nanowires were employed to hinder the migration and coalescence of Pd nanoparticles supported on the nanowires, and thus to improve their catalytic stability for total combustion of methane. The results show that the etched Pd/SiC catalyst can keep the methane conversion of almost 100% while the unetched one has an obvious decline i...

In this paper, a unified framework of non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) networks is proposed, which can be applied to code-domain NOMA (CD-NOMA) and power-domain NOMA (PD-NOMA). Since the detection of NOMA users mainly depend on efficient successive interference cancellation (SIC) schemes, both imperfect SIC (ipSIC) and perfect SIC (pSIC) are taken into considered. To characterize the perfo...
