Engineering key features of zeolite active sites<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Around <\/em>200 of 850 <\/em><\/strong>industrial catalytic processes <\/em>utilize zeolites<\/em><\/strong>. Although traditional synthetic approaches are excellent tools for tuning the chemical composition of zeolite catalysts, they are still unable to control sub-nm characteristics of their active sites. We aim to address the aforementioned challenge facing zeolite chemistry by going beyond conventional \u201cnanoscale\u201d engineering of active sites and venturing into new frontiers in materials design \u2013 manipulating active sites in zeolites with atomic precision<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Advanced characterization of atomic-level active-site structure<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We apply well-established spectroscopic, microscopic and diffraction techniques in combination with modelling to advance the structural description of active sites in zeolites<\/strong> towards a more accurate mechanistic interpretation and fine-tuning of their catalytic chemistry.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Zeolite-catalyzed synthesis of fine chemicals<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The recent \u201cScience and Technology Roadmap of Catalysis for Europe<\/a>\u201d recognizes \u201ccatalysis complexity\u201d as one of the \u201cgrand challenges\u201d that must be addressed by experts in heterogeneous catalysts to improve sustainability of chemical processes. In this regard, \u201cthe rational design of targeted catalytic functionalities that do not interfere with other functionalities\u201d is one of our priorities to achieve a high level of predictability of catalytic reactions for the synthesis of fine chemicals.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
