Table 4. Justification of purchasing major pieces of equipment

	Equipment name and characteristics	Justification
(CO)	Integrated system for catalysts characterization Posibility to have constant temperature, controled increase temperature, constant and controled flows. Analyser is FID coupled with mass spectrometer.	We intend to acquire at the beginning of the project (Stage 1) an integrated system for catalysts characterization. This equipment will enable us to have more rapid and accurate results to describe: (i) the surface (adsorptive) and catalytic (nature of catalytic sites) properties of a catalytic material by performing TPD and TPR measurements and (ii) the catalyst deactivation by determining the nature and quantity of deposited materials on the catalytic surface after catalyzed reaction (TPO and TPR measurements). For additivated catalysts used in this proposal these parameters are not fully explored at this hour and the results obtained by using the mentioned equipment are extremely important to fulfill the project objectives.
