Plasma DBD activated ceria-zirconia-promoted Ni-catalysts for plasma catalytic CO2 hydrogenation at low temperature

“…Plasma technologies can also be used for catalytic synthesis [10][11][12][13][14][15]. In general, there are three main trends in catalyst preparation using plasma technologies: plasma chemical synthesis of ultrafine particle catalysts [11,12], plasma assisted deposition of catalytically active compounds on various supports [13][14][15] and plasma enhanced preparation or plasma modification of catalysts [12,16,17]. A recent work evidenced that radio frequency or microwave plasma treated catalysts led to higher catalytic efficiency in NO x abatement for hydrocarbon SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) in comparison to classical calcined catalysts [15,18].…”

Microwave Plasma Treatment for Catalyst Preparation: Application to Alumina Supported Silver Catalysts for SCR NO<sub>x</sub> by Ethanol

“…In general, there are three main trends in catalyst preparation using plasma technologies, such as: plasma chemical synthesis of ultrafine particle catalysts [7][8][9], plasma assisted deposition of catalytically active compounds on various supports [7,11] and plasma enhanced preparation or plasma modification of catalysts [9]. Vissokov et al [7] presented a synthesis of a γ-Al 2 O 3 from elementary aluminium and oxygen under plasma jet.…”

“…The condensedphase catalyst preparation can be carried out in both equilibrium and non-equilibrium plasma conditions. Rouleau et al [9] presented a synthetic catalytic system prepared by plasma discharge spark between two metal electrodes immersed in a light hydrocarbon medium. Xia et al [8] presented the preparation of palladium catalysts supported on structured carbon nanotubes.…”

“…Other authors have proposed to use plasma technologies in the synthesis process of the catalysts [7][8][9][10][11]. In general, there are three main trends in catalyst preparation using plasma technologies, such as: plasma chemical synthesis of ultrafine particle catalysts [7][8][9], plasma assisted deposition of catalytically active compounds on various supports [7,11] and plasma enhanced preparation or plasma modification of catalysts [9].…”

Plasma enhanced metal organic chemical vapor deposition (PEMOCVD) of catalytic coatings for fuel cell reformers

“…In this regard, the ultrafine particle catalysts attract special attention because of their large specific surface and less-perfect crystal lattice with a large number of vacancies, which induce a high catalytic activity [102,103]. One of the most efficient methods for producing ultrafine particles has been with plasma processing, which is known to produce ultrafine particle catalysts with the particle size on the order of a few tens of nanometers with a highly developed specific surface area and a high catalytic activity [68][69][70].…”
