Development of clean hydrogen economy is of paramount importance and hydrogen is expected to play a more important role in the future energy market. An interesting way to produce hydrogen is via dry reforming reaction which uses two green house gasses (CH4 and CO_(2)) as feedstock. Dry reforming is a challenging reaction to scale-up due to its high endothermic and coke formation nature. Microwave has gained interest in the past years as a superior heating mechanism in catalytic reactions due to its capacity in enhancing conversions of reactants and selectivity of products, and suppression of coke formation. Such characteristics has made microwave an excellent alternative to conventional heating in dry reforming reaction. In this study, we aim to discuss different aspects of microwave heating technology and its application in the catalytic dry reforming of methane. The advantages of microwave-assisted methane reforming are discussed via the comparison to the conventional heating.展开更多

Recent studies have provided some important new insights into the peripheral and central processes underlying pain, and this presentation will review some of the recent advances in our knowledge of the neural processes involved in pain of the orofacial region.展开更多
