Abstract

The research plan is divided in three main aprts. The first one consists on the development of synthesis methods of heterogeneous catalysts supported in mixed oxides. In the second part, a detailed characterization will be carried out involving several techniques such as BET, XRD, quimissorption, electron microscopy, etc. The final part is testing activity and selectivity of catalysts for hydrogen production from the steam reforming of ethanol.
