24 Conclusions & prospects Benzene hydrogenation on Pt(111): Succesful reaction simulation using only 2 optimized parameters Benzene hydrogenation on Pt 3 M bimetallic alloys Adsorption energies of benzene and hydrogen of the Pt 3 M alloys are, compared to pure Pt(111), weaker when alloying with Au, Ag, Fe, Co, Ni and Cu On the bulk alloys Pt 3 Co, Pt 3 Ni, Pt 3 Fe, Pt 3 Cu and the Pt 3 Fe/Pt surface alloy the activation energies are lower than on pure Pt(111) the d-band center correlates well with benzene adsorption energies and hydrogenation barriers for the studied alloys. Prospects Development of first-principles based kinetic Monte Carlo simulation tools to assess the validity of the mean field approximation under industrially relevant operating conditions Further evaluate the d-band center as useful catalyst descriptors relating the variation in activity and selectivity in going from Pt(111) to other metal catalysts, and screen the d-band center of other promising alloys Definition of optimal catalyst properties: simultaneous optimization of catalyst properties, industrial process conditions and reactor configuration 24
