Hydrogen production via formic acid decomposition using MXenes (HydroForMX)
CoordinatorFundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia
To combat global warming and consequent climate changes, there is an urgent need for nearly carbon-neutral forms of energy production and storage. The hydrogen (H2) economy is very promising and is expected to dominate energy systems soon. Formic acid (HCOOH) is a renewable, non flammable and non toxic H2 carrier with high volumetric ca...MImicking NItrogenase-inspired catalysis ON Sulfur-terminated mxenes (MINIONS)
PartnerFundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia
Ammonia (NH3) is a crucial chemical feedstock, widely used in fertilizers and industrial applications, and has recently gained attention as a potential hydrogen carrier [https://doi.org/10.1088/2515-7655/ac0d9f]. However, its large-scale production remains heavily reliant on the Haber-Bosch process (HBP) using Fe-supported catalysts, an energy-i...MXenes catalysts for the water gas shift reaction (ForTheShift)
PartnerFundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia
The ForTheShift project aims to put in place a computational framework to analyze the potential of a new family of two-dimensional (2D) carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides, with general formula Mn+1XnTx (M is an early transition metal, n=1-5, X is C and/or N, and T are surface terminations as oxo, hydroxy, and/or fluoro groups), the so-called ...Structural, energetic and catalytic properties of vacancy defects in MXene surfaces (2021.09799.CPCA)
PartnerFundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia
MXenes are two-dimensional (2D) materials made up of a few (n+1) layers of atoms of an early transition metal element (M) intercalated by n layers of carbon or nitrogen (X). The metallic layers are very reactive and the MXene becomes terminated by a T layer whose composition depends on the synthesis method (usually T=O or F). MXenes display high...Publications
