  • Frontiers at the Interface of Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Catalysis
    FRONTIERS AT THE INTERFACE OF HOMOGENEOUS AND HETEROGENEOUS CATALYSIS Meeting of the Catalysis Science Program Chemical Sciences, Geosciences and Biosciences Division Office of Basic Energy Sciences U.S. Department of Energy Westin Annapolis Annapolis, Maryland June 30 – July 2, 2013 This document was produced under contract number DE-AC05-060R23100 between the U.S. Department of Energy and Oak Ridge Associated Universities. FOREWORD The 2013 Catalysis Science Program Meeting is sponsored by the Division of Chemical Sciences, Geosciences and Biosciences, Office of Basic Energy Sciences (BES), U.S. Department of Energy. It is being held on June 30 through July 2, 2013, at the Westin Annapolis Hotel, Annapolis, Maryland. The purposes of this meeting are to discuss the recent advances in the chemical, physical, and biological bases of catalysis science, to foster exchange of ideas and cooperation among participants, and to discuss the new challenges and opportunities recently emerging in energy technologies. Catalysis activities within BES emphasize fundamental research aimed at initially understanding and finally controlling the chemical conversion of natural and artificial feedstocks. The long-term goal of this research is to discover fundamental principles and produce ever more insightful approaches to predict structure-reactivity behavior. Such knowledge, integrated with advances in chemical and materials synthesis, in situ and operando analytical instrumentation, and chemical kinetics and quantum chemistry methods, will allow the control of chemical reactions along desired pathways. Ultimately, this new knowledge should impact the efficiency of conversion of natural resources into fuels, chemicals, materials, or other forms of energy, while minimizing the impact to the environment. This year’s meeting is focused on three topical areas: (i) the interface of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, (ii) catalysis for biomass or solar energy conversion, and (iii) molecular catalysis, with an emphasis on organic synthesis.

Preprint. https://doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv.12818174.v1 Transformational catalytic performance in rate and selectivity is obtainable through catalysts that change on the time scale of catalytic turnover frequency. In this work, dynamic catalysts are defined in the context and history of forced and passive dynamic chemical systems, with classification of unique catalyst behaviors based on temporally-relevant linear scaling parameters. The conditions leading to catalytic rate and selectivity enhancement are described as modifying the local electronic or steric environment of the active site to independently accelerate sequential elementary steps of an overall catalytic cycle. These concepts are related to physical systems and devices that stimulate a catalyst using light, vibrations, strain, and electronic manipulations including electrocatalysis,

  • Unraveling Cellulose for Renewable Plastics and Fuels
    UW Chemical Engineering Spring 2013 Seminar Series Date: Monday, May 20 Time: 4:00 - 5:00 p.m. Place: PAA A110 Unraveling Cellulose for Renewable Plastics and Fuels Paul Dauenhauer Assistant Professor Chemical Engineering University of Massachusetts Amherst Biography Paul Dauenhauer is director of the University of Massachusetts Reaction Engineering and Catalysis Laboratory and Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Paul received his B.S. in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering from the University of Wisconsin Madison in 2004. In 2008, he received his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Minnesota with a focus on catalytic reforming of biomass advised by Professor Lanny Schmidt. Paul has also worked for the Dow Chemical Corporation as a Senior Research Engineer and Cargill, Inc. He currently serves as Thrust Leader of the DOE-funded Catalysis Center for Energy Innovation, associate editor of Chemical Engineering Science, and manager of the Waste-to- Energy engineering program at UMass. His work focusing on catalytic biomass conversion has been recognized for its achievements in renewable biofuels and chemicals, and Prof. Dauenhauer has received the NSF-CAREER, the Dept. of Energy Early Career, and the 3M Nontenured Faculty awards supporting his research efforts. Abstract Utilization of non-food, lignocellulosic biomass such as trees and grasses provides unprecedented opportunity to sustain a lifestyle which benefits from plastics, chemicals and fuels. These feedstocks are rich in the carbohydrate polymers cellulose and hemicellulose, which can be broken down and chemically reduced to the same fuels and chemicals that we currently derive from petroleum. With a focus on production of chemicals including p-xylene, we demonstrate a new technology to convert sugars derived from cellulose to furans and eventually six-carbon aromatics.

  • “Mechanisms of Cellulose Activation and Implications for Bioenergy”
    “Mechanisms of Cellulose Activation and Implications for Bioenergy” Wednesday February 27, 2019 3:00 pm Wu and Chen Auditorium Levine Hall Paul J. Dauenhauer Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science University of Minnesota Abstract As the most bountiful polymer on earth, cellulose stores solar energy with atmosphere-derived carbon as a semi- crystalline solid with structural capability to physically support trees and grasses. With its counterpart lignin, the composite material of lignocellulose evolved to become resistant to biological decomposition (and utilization). Human development has instead harvested the captured energy of cellulose through extreme chemical reaction (e.g., cow digestion) or thermal activation (e.g., fire). In this presentation, the behavior of cellulose via thermal activation is linked to the chemistry and kinetics of several chain scission mechanisms, including the role of natural metal catalyst impurities obtained by plants from soil. Cellulose is shown to interact via hydrogen bonding with itself and neighboring chains, leading to catalytic activation mechanisms dependent on the extent and orientation of the local hydrogen bonding network. The conditions leading to cellulose chain scission ultimately dictate the design of bioenergy chemical reactors, which aim to maximize the formation of volatile molecules for downstream chemical refining to biofuels and biochemicals. Bio Paul J. Dauenhauer is an Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science at the University of Minnesota. He serves as Co-director of the Catalysis Center for Energy Innovation. He received his B.S. in Chemical Engineering and Chemistry from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Minnesota.
