The most common method for the synthesis of layered double hydroxides (LDHs) is co-
precipitation. This review is focused on the summarizing of results concerning the influence …

Global communities have started addressing the problems of climate change-induced by
anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions through the valorisation process. CO 2 can …

The surface structure of heterogeneous catalysts is closely associated with their catalytic
performance. Current efforts for structural modification mainly focus on improving the catalyst …

One of the main stumbling blocks in developing rational design strategies for heterogeneous
catalysis is that the complexity of the catalysts impairs efforts to characterize their active …

A series of Cu/Zn/Al/Zr hydrotalcite-like precursors with Zr4+:(Al3++ Zr4+) from 0 to 0.7 were
synthesized by a co-precipitation method. X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric …

Deactivation behavior is an important topic in catalyst development. In case of methanol
synthesis the conventional Cu/ZnO/Al 2 O 3 system is commonly known to be prone to …

Chemical looping processes based on multiple-step reduction and oxidation of metal oxides
hold great promise for a variety of energy applications, such as CO2 capture and …

Natural gas is a dominating feedstock for the production of several bulk chemicals such as
ammonia, methanol, and dimethyl ether (DME), and for the increasingly important …

A series of promoted Cu/Zn/Al catalysts derived from hydrotalcite-like precursors were
synthesized by co-precipitation method and tested for the CO 2 hydrogenation to methanol …

Ordered layered double hydroxides (LDHs) consisting of zinc and/or copper hydroxides
were synthesized and combined with aluminum or gallium. These LDH compounds were …
