If It’s Deli.cio.us … It’s Worth A Second Taste

“New Orleans food is as delicious as the less criminal forms of sin.” -- Mark Twain (Samuel Langhorne Clemens) 1884

An earlier post to the Desulfurization Blog highlighted the potential of social bookmarking sites like Deli.cio.us to enhance your effectiveness as a professional researcher. Here are three examples from the bookmarks I have posted to my Deli.cio.us account. You can view all my bookmarks by visiting: http://delicious.com/jeansteinhardt

Social bookmarking has much to recommend it, but the two features that make them especially useful to me are the description field, and the tags field. The descriptions are copied from each bookmarked site and pasted into the description field. The tags are made up on the fly … they enable me to group bookmarks together in multiple ways.

CATALYTIC FUEL REFORMING for FUEL CELL APPLICATIONS
Catalysts are being developed to convert a wide variety of potential fuels into hydrogen, for use in low temperature, Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cells. Some of the fuels which have been utilized include ammonia, methanol, propane, as well as gasoline and diesel model hydrocarbons. Current research emphasis is on the stability of reforming catalysts and the development of catalysts and process conditions to improve sulfur tolerance of these catalysts. Funding has been provided by the US Army as well as the National Science Foundation. In addition to investigations of both steam and dry reforming of hydrocarbons, some of the work has also concentrated on CO removal via the water gas shift reaction and preferential oxidation of CO.

Nanostructured Materials Research Laboratory-MIT PEOPLE2 Located in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the Nanostructured Materials Research Laboratory (NMRL) focuses on the processing of nanostructured materials which have unique microstructure and exceptional size-dependent properties. We seek to exploit the technological potential of this class of materials through our ability to tailor materials for novel catalytic, sensors, membranes, structural, electric, magnetic, and biomaterials applications. By tying together chemical engineering principles, surface chemistry and materials science, we seek to understand the process chemistry and structural physics of nanocrystalline, nanoporous and microemulsion systems
