David James Willock - Catalysis

Author Information

David James Willock is affiliated with the Max Planck-Cardiff Centre on the Fundamentals of Heterogeneous Catalysis (FUNCAT) at the Cardiff Catalysis Institute, School of Chemistry, Cardiff University, Cardiff, UK. His research focuses on various aspects of catalysis, particularly in relation to the oxidation processes and the valorization of chemical compounds.

Research Contributions

David James Willock has made significant contributions to the field of catalysis, with a particular emphasis on the selective oxidation processes and sustainable approaches to liquid fuels. His recent work includes the selective oxidation of methane to methanol using Au-ZSM-5 catalysts, transfer hydrogenation of methyl levulinate, and the partial oxidation of methane on Au and Pd surfaces. His research also delves into the interaction of CO with oxy-chlorination catalysts, glycerol valorization, and band gap engineering of coordination polymers for photo-redox systems. Through these studies, he has contributed to advancing our understanding of catalysis and developing more sustainable chemical processes.
