Reactors
Micro Catalyst Bed unit – This PC-controlled unit is used for hydrogenation under high pressure of various compounds. Two liquids with a gas such as H2 or N2 can be simultaneously fed into the fixed-bed reactor of 11 ml (16 cm x 0.85 cm). The unit can be pressured up to 280 bar while with maximum temperature is 450 °C.
Bench Top Autoclave Reactor – This high-pressure stirred laboratory apparatus is used for diverse catalyst research, catalyst characterization, and surface chemistry studies under a neutral, reductive or oxidizing atmosphere. The autoclave can be pressured up to 200 bar, the maximum operating temperature is 500 °C.
Down-flow fixed-bed tube reactor - This reactor is used for the treatment of solid materials under high-temperature conditions and the study of their catalytic performance. The flow catalytic unit is equipped with: a tubular furnace (a heating zone with a length of 300 mm and a maximum temperature of 1000 °C), gas flow meters and an HPLC pump.
Flow reactor: The testing unit could be used for 0.1-10 g of catalysts. Two types of reactor could be used – a stainless-steel high-pressure reactor (pressure up to 5.0 MPa) and a glass reactor for testes at ambient pressure. Operating up to 800 °C depending on the temperature. Electronic mass flow controllers are used (0-500 ml/min) with a maximum pressure of 10 MPa. The HPLC pump (0.6-600 ml/h) is used to inject liquids into a pressurized reactor operating in continuous flow mode, while the syringe pump (0.73 µL/h to 2100 mL/h) is used for the glass reactor.
Analytical methods
ICP-OES is used for the determination of metal leaching from catalysts in an organic matrix.
GC machine Agilent 7820A is used for the analysis of reaction products. The GC unit is equipped with an auto-injection system, a capillary column and FID, and is controlled by the OpenLAB CDS Workstation.
TPR/TPD/TPO instrument AMI-300 with a TCD and FTIR cell. The unique setup is able to determine catalyst properties such as reducibility or probe acid-base character. Moreover, the catalyst surface could be treated by various organics and their interaction analysed.
At UCT we have long-lasting and successful cooperation with:
Laboratory for XRF and XRD analysis (S. Randáková)
Laboratory for H2-TPR and nitrogen physisorption (M. Lhotka)
Laboratory for TGA-MS (V. Fíla)
Laboratory for AAS analysis (D. Pokorná)
Laboratory for Raman spectroscopy (L. Lapčák)
Laboratory for ICP analysis at UCT Technopark Kralupy
Methods
The catalyst preparation is our main focus and we are able to prepare co-precipitated as well as supported catalysts synthesized via a wide range of techniques. The following calcination and reduction in ovens could be done under different atmospheres.
The co-precipitation apparatus is intended for catalyst preparation under controlled temperature and pH values. The apparatus is equipped with: a magnetic stirrer with a hotplate (maximum temperature is 380 °C, maximum stirring speed is 1.500 rpm), benchtop pH-meter (resolution ± 0.01 pH, the maximum temperature is 100 °C) with a glass electrode, 2 peristaltic pumps for co-feeding reactants (maximum output is 100 ml/min).

#JUNIOR RESEARCHER: EXPIRED on 14th April 2020
Environmental Chemistry And Technology: Catalysis For Advanced Biofuels
Multifunctional Catalysts for Efficient Biomass Valorization
Significant attention and research efforts of the scientific community have been dedicated to the efficient valorization of biomass-derived oxygenates to advanced biofuels and petrochemicals. Efficient conversion of simple biomass-derived building blocks, such as different furanics, aldehydes/ketones, acids/esters and phenolics, requires a cascade of multiple conversion steps including, for instance, C-C coupling, dehydration and hydrogenation reactions relying on multifunctional catalysts instead of a cascade of single-function catalysts. Thus, the main motivation of the project is to design efficient multifunctional catalysts for multicomponent mixtures of biomass-derived oxygenates.
Main objectives and role of postdoc:
- Rational design of multifunctional catalysts
- Synthesis of multifunctional catalysts
- Characterization of multifunctional catalysts
- Evaluation of multifunctional catalysts in the model reaction system including C-C coupling and (partial) hydrodeoxygenation
- Interpreting the structure-activity relationships as a way to improve the catalyst design
Planned activities:
- Design and synthesis of multifunctional heterogeneous catalysts
- Detailed characterization of synthesized catalysts
- Activity, selectivity and stability testing of the synthesized catalysts
- Analysis of the catalyst synthesis-structure-properties and structure-properties-activity-selectivity relationships
- Research project proposal preparation
Specific requirements:
- Practical experience in heterogeneous catalysis
- Hands-on experience with synthesis/preparation of heterogeneous catalysts
- Knowledge of catalyst characterization methods
- Hands-on experience with assessment of the performance of heterogeneous catalysts

We are delighted to share our experience and use another advanced analytical techniques with other research groups in the Czech Republic and abroad.
Technopark Kralupy is a research-based institution associated with the University of Chemistry and Technology. There are well-equipped for solid catalyst preparation and catalytic tests in autoclaves. Our working group collaborates with other working groups at the University of Pardubice where acid-base properties using NH3-TPD and CO2-TPD are measured and VSB – Technical University of Ostrava where different kinds of physisorption and chemisorption are performed.
Also, international cooperation is important thus we are in a close relationship with Instituto de Tecnología Química in Valencia where advanced analytical methods such as HRTEM, XPS or in situ XRD are used. FTIR with adsorption of probe molecules is provided at Technical University in Wien as well as H2-TPR at Leipzig University. At ISTM-CNR in Milan, they are able to prepare catalysts using a special impregnation method. Long-term collaboration in catalyst characterization and testing is with the University in Lodz. Recently, a new collaboration with UCCS in Lille in the field of surface analysis was established.
We also cooperate with an industrial partner Ranido s.r.o.
