Competences
- Synthesis of porous materials (carbon-based materials and metal-organic frameworks, among others) to be used as adsorbents, catalysts or catalyst supports
- Preparation of metal catalysts based in the use of partially reducible oxides as supports and promoters
- Synthesis of materials to be used for hydrogen and methane storage at high pressures
- Synthesis of materials for selective sequestration of CO2
- Preparation of (photo)catalysts for clean energy processes, such as the production of hydrogen and/or synthesis gas streams from biomass-derived compounds (ethanol, glycerol, etc.,)
- Purification of such streams by low-temperature water-gas shift and preferential CO oxidation
- Transformation of biomass-derived platform compounds into fuels and chemicals
