Deliverables
1. Planned measures to maximize the impact of the project:The Lig2BTX project’s communication objectives are following the SMART principle that is clearly defined, detailed, achievable and measurable. The main communication objectives are: i) raise awareness on catalysis; ii) influencing the behaviour by aromatics production from biomass/industrial lignin waste.2. Dissemination and exploitation measures plan:i. Dissemination of research results:A dissemination plan has been developed by identifying specific target audiences within the scientific community, consolidating the progress obtained by the project, turning them into recognized state-of-the-art results, and within the industry to promote the technological relevance of the achievements. A detailed plan, including tools are summarized below.a. Development of at least 10 catalysts for the production of aromatics from lignin and optimization of the process will be communicated to scientific community in the field of valorization in the form of research publications in high impact journals, presentations in the conferences, professional articles, etc.b. Removing/reducing the knowledge gap between new concepts and technology will helps for technology transfer in industries by collaborative meetings and exhibition. For example, PlasticsEurope associate industries like AGC Chemicals, BEWI, DOW etc.ii. Exploitation of Lig2BTX project:I expect that this project will inspire further research within the UniGraz, in the field of biomass valorization. The application of this technology opens new avenues for collaboration with recently funded H2020 project (IDEALFUEL). The identification of the potential patent will be a fundamental requisite for the reactor design for continuous catalytic hydrotreatment of lignin. As discussed above the developed catalysts, micro/meso-scale chemical kinetics model will be useful for further research on large scale production of catalyst for pilot scale tests with the support of industry (ECN, The Netherlands). Therefore, the project results require intellectual property (IP) management. The IP management will be carried out according to the instructions provided in the European IPR helpdesk fact sheet IP Management in Horizon 2020: at the proposal stage. Particularly, maintaining the lab records for protection, exploitation prior to publication and cooperatively produced IP will be owned by all parties in which no interference between this project and third-party ownership of IP rights. The knowledge transfer office of UniGraz will support me in promoting my patent and identifying the potential for spin-off development.3. Communication measures, public engagement strategy and targeted group(s):I enjoy communicating science to the general public and will be endeavouring to communicate the results of the project to society as broadly as possible so that the non-specialist audience can understand the results. Lig2BTX’s communication objectives related to awareness and knowledge are tactically associated with the approach of passing on information and messages through storytelling, making audio-video, posters (generalized). Given communication objectives related to attitude and behaviour, communication is involves influencing stakeholders (open and transparent dialogue, building on previous dissemination, etc.). Stakeholder segmentation and targeting strategy based on Key performance indicators (KPI) have already been planned to achieve objectives.Biomass scientific community: I will communicate the project updates in the form of publications, conferences and social media to promote EU grants.High school scientific level discipline: I will give seminars at QSI international school of Graz to increase of knowledge and make their career into research field.University students: I will give lecturers at UniGraz and TU-Graz to transfer my knowledge on synthesis of hollow sphere catalysts and its application in hydrotreatment of lignin for t
Data Management Plan (opens in new window)1. Purpose of data collection/generation and its relation to the objectives of the project:i. The Lig2BTX project aims to synthesize Dandelion type hollow-microspheres of bi/tri-metallic catalysts of Ni/Co/Y promoted Mo/W unsupported and supported on Al2O3, SiO2 and Al2O3-SiO2 for tuning of acidic properties.ii. Catalytic evaluation for the hydrotreatment of Kraft lignin targeting towards aromatic chemicals (BTX) in semi- and continuous reactors.iii. Developing the sustainable and selective process for the production of aromatics from abundant and inexpensive Kraft lignin reduces the overall production cost and provides benefit to bio-refineries and society.iv. Report on Techno-economic evaluation for the lignin hydrotreatment.2. Technical part:i. Technical part of research work focused on synthesis and characterization of Ni/Y/Co promoted Mo/W based Dandelion flower like hollow microsphere catalysts for the hydrotreatment of Kraft lignin for the production of aromatics like BTX.ii. All the file formats used are standard/readable by numerous tools.3. Experimental part:i. The physico-chemical properties of the synthesized catalysts would be characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), nitrogen physisorption, temperature programmed reduction techniques etc.ii. The activity of the synthesized catalysts NiYMo, CoYMo, NiW based catalysts would be evaluated for the hydrotreatment of Kraft lignin in batch, semi-/continuous reactors. The products would be analyzed by GC/GC-MS, GC-TCD, CHNS etc.iii. Standard data formats will be used (CSV for tabular data, TIFF and PDF for pictures), so that the data is easily accessible.4. Data utility:The LIg2BTX project will confer significant scientific advances in the field of materials design, catalysis strategies and production of valued chemicals from biomass waste, in addition to the knowledge transfer, training activities and long run societal interests.5. Reuse of Datai. Till the research publication, the outstanding results and crucial methodology details data will be shared only with Institute of Chemistry, UniGraz.ii. Free access and increased visibility to the peer-reviewed articles will be ensured through repositories of candidate as well as research supervisor (ResearcherID, Researchgate, Google Scholar, Academia.edu, LinkedIn, Slovene repository DIRROS and Zenodo.org etc.) and also at the Uni Graz website. The significant findings of the Lig2BTX project will also be presented on websites for spreading and transfer of scientific knowledge even to general public such as AAAS, ScienceStage.com, and Science Daily etc.6. Archival of Data:i. A laboratory notebook would be maintained to record the day to day research activities. ii. Daily and weekly backup of data will be made by the information technology infrastructure available at the UniGraz website.iii. Data will be stored on long-term on the special archive infrastructure. 7. File formats: i. CSV file format (*.csv)A comma-separated values (CSV) file is a delimited text file that uses a comma to separate values. Each line of the file is a data record. The file is commonly used to store tabular data of text and numbers. The file format is very simple but is sadly not fully standardized. However, export to CSV is available on most experimental machines. Detailed description is available: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_valuesii. TIFF file format (*.tiff)Tagged Image File Format (TIFF or TIF) is a file format for storing raster graphics images. The format is widely used to store images as well as corresponding meta data. Most microscope software support export to the TIFF format. Detailed specifications are available: https://www.adobe.io/open/standards/TIFF.htmliii. PDF file format (*.pdf)The Portable Document F
