industrial applications of our partner, Enerkem. The Enerkem uses highly selective catalysts to form_x000D_
oxygenated compounds by CO hydrogenation and by ethylene hydroformylation over catalysts under high_x000D_
pressure. Modifications of the Rh/SiO2 catalyst, including its size, have a great influence on CO hydrogenation_x000D_
at high pressure. The high performance of the heterogenous catalysts has been attributed to a combination of a_x000D_
high ligand concentration and a flexible polymer framework. The objective of the project is to determine the_x000D_
properties of several Rh catalysts, including their surface size, morphology, as well as their oxidation state._x000D_
This collaboration will lead to the manufacturing and development of more appropriate products for future_x000D_
