Publication Open Access Progress in the synthesis and applications of hexaaluminate-based catalysts(Taylor & Francis, 2020) Torrez Herrera, Jonathan Josué; Korili, Sophia A.; Gil Bravo, Antonio; Zientziak; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Ciencias; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaThe development of materials that can exhibit thermal resistance at very high temperatures, thus allowing them to be applied as catalysts and thermal insulators, amongst other possible uses, is a research subject of great interest. This is the case for hexaaluminates, a class of hexagonal aluminate compounds with a unique structure that are stable at very high temperatures up to 1600°C and exhibit exceptional resistance to sintering and thermal shock, thus making them attractive catalysts for high-temperature applications. In this review, the structure of hexaaluminates is presented first. The most recent advances in synthetic methods (sol-gel, reverse microemulsion, hydrothermal synthesis, carbon-templating, solution combustion synthesis, and freeze-drying methods) are discussed subsequently, with the aim of maximizing textural properties and including in their structure metals known to be active in catalytic applications, such as combustion of CH4, partial oxidation, and dry reforming of CH4 to produce synthetic gas, and the decomposition of N2O. Finally, other applications, such as their function as a thermal barrier, are also addressed.Publication Open Access Evidence for the synthesis of La-hexaaluminate from aluminum-containing saline slag wastes: correction of structural defects and phase purification at low temperature(Elsevier, 2021) Torrez Herrera, Jonathan Josué; Fuentes Ordóñez, Edwin Gustavo; Korili, Sophia A.; Gil Bravo, Antonio; Zientziak; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Ciencias; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaThe synthesis of a lanthanum hexaaluminate from the aluminum extracted from a saline slag waste is presented for the first time. Briefly, a refluxing 2 M solution of HCl is used to extract the aluminum, giving 8.9 gAl/dm3 along with other metals in lower concentrations. This solution is used to synthesize the hexaaluminate by mixing with a stoichiometric amount of lanthanum nitrate. The results showed the formation of pure phase hexaaluminate at 1473 K, as well as predominance of the hexaaluminate phase at temperatures of 1273 and 1373 K. These results also indicate that the pure hexaaluminate phase can be obtained at a much lower temperature than when commercial aluminum solutions are used improving the applications as catalyst and thermal barrier material. It was also found that the presence of other metals in solution allows the structural problems and purity of the La-hexaaluminate phase to be corrected when working with stoichiometric ratios.Publication Embargo Development of Ni/Lahexaaluminates from aluminum saline slags applied as catalysts in the dry reforming of methane(2021) Torrez Herrera, Jonathan Josué; Gil Bravo, Antonio; Korili, Sophia A.; Química Aplicada; Kimika AplikatuaThe general objective of this work is to study the synthesis methods, structural and morphological behavior of hexaaluminates and their performance as catalysts in the dry reforming reaction of methane from aluminum salt slags. Specific objectives: 1. Valorize the saline slag of aluminum and mitigate its polluting effect. 2. Obtaining an optimal method for the synthesis of hexaaluminates from salt slags. 3. Evaluation of the performance and applicability of catalysts in the dry reforming reaction. 4. Determination of the optimal operating parameters of the catalysts. 5. Determination of efficiency and comparison with catalysts synthesized with commercial precursors.
