International Workshop on the Electrochemical Promotion of Catalysis

摘要提案标题： 电化学促进催化国际研讨会建议编号：CTS-0122676主要研究者：Andra Michl机构： 电力研究所与EPRI联合主办的研讨会将于5月3日至4日在NSF举行。 将邀请11位发言者主持讨论，讨论的议题将包括增强催化过程的活性和选择性的新方法。 特别是，增强由于小电流通过沉积在离子导电载体上的催化剂的通道将进行讨论。 这一发现被称为催化活性的非法拉第电化学修饰（NEMCA）。 已经根据经验观察到这种现象促进了工业上重要的反应，例如在负载型银催化剂上乙烯氧化成环氧乙烷，在Pt、Pd和Rh上CO和烃氧化，以及在Pd上丁烯异构化。 该研讨会的目标是解决有关现象的基础的基本问题，并针对特定的工业利益，其中可能包括氨合成，二氧化硫氧化和氮氧化物还原系统。 详细介绍这些建议的讲习班报告将于8月印发。

AbstractProposal Title: International Workshop on the Electrochemical Promotion of CatalysisProposal Number: CTS-0122676Principal Investigator: Andra MichlInstitution: Electric Power Research InstituteA workshop, jointly sponsored with EPRI, will be held at the NSF on May 3 - 4. Eleven speakers will be invited to lead the discussion on topics that will include new methods for enhancing the activity and selectivity of catalytic processes. In particular, enhancements due to the passage of small electric currents passed through catalysts deposited on ionically conducting supports will be discussed. This discovery is called the non-faradaic electrochemical modification of catalytic activity (NEMCA). This phenomenon has been observed empirically to promote industrially important reactions such as oxidation of ethylene to ethylene oxide on supported silver catalysts, oxidation of CO and hydrocarbons on Pt, Pd, and Rh, and the isomerization of butene on Pd. The objectives of this workshop will be to address the fundamental issues regarding the basis for the phenomenon and to target specific systems of particular industrial interest, which might include ammonia synthesis, SO2 oxidation, and NOx reduction. A workshop report detailing the recommendations will be issued in August.
