    CRC 1615 - Project C03: SMART multiphase reactor for the catalytic hydrogenolysis of glycerol
    The kinetics and process parameters of the hydrogenolysis of glycerol to 1,2-propanediol are investigated in a slurry reactor at the beginning of the funding period. The SMART reactor is simultaneously calculated, designed and subjected to a HAZOP, considering the data obtained in the slurry. The final design is worked out in detail and manufactured subsequently. After assembly, the EIT, electrowetting and further measuring and control devices are installed in the reactor. The hydrogenolysis is finally realized in the SMART reactor and the various new components are tested.

    CRC 1615 - Project A06: Development of novel, highly active, and selective multifunctional carbon nanotube-supported catalysts for the chemical hydrogenolysis of glycerol to 1,2 propanediol
    In this project, CNT-supported catalysts for hydrogenolysis are developed and optimised. First, the multifunctional carbon nanotube-supported catalyst is optimized with respect to its activity by incorporating additional transition metals. The application and fabrication of CNT forests on glass will be investigated and adjusted in parallel. Subsequently, this synthesis method is applied to 3D-printed metal surfaces, which serve as support material for the catalyst. The resulting catalyst will then be subjected to in-depth reaction engineering studies. Continuous characterization of the obtained products will be carried out during the whole project.
