Testing and characterization

Testing and characterization of materials, especially within catalysis and separation, has been a key research area for the group for more than 30 years. The group has expertise in the design and construction of test facilities and has a large selection of test facilities that are often tailored to the application.

Testing:

  • Heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis
  • Sorbent-based separation processes
  • Electrochemistry
  • Production of bio-based fuels and chemicals
  • CO2 utilization
  • Combinatorial chemistry

Characterization:

  • Solution and solid-state NMR
  • Powder XRD
  • Diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS)
  • In-Situ Mass Analyser (ISMA)
  • Thermal Gravimetric Mass Spectrometry (TG-MS)
  • Gasskromatografi-Massespektrometri (GC-MS)
  • Sorbent performance (Isotherms, Breakthrough measurements)
