Activity of gold supported catalysts strongly depends on the type and composition of support, which determine the size of Au nanoparticles (Au NPs), gold-support interaction influencing gold properties, interaction with the reactants and, in this way, the reaction pathway. The aim of this study was to use two types of zeolites: the three dimensional HBeta and the layered two-dimensional MCM-36 as supports for gold, and modification of their properties towards the achievement of different properties in oxidation of glucose to gluconic acid with molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. Such an approach allowed establishment of relationships between the activity of gold catalysts and different parameters such as Au NPs size, electronic properties of gold, structure and acidity of the supports. The zeolites were modified with (3-aminopropyl)-trimethoxysilane (APMS), which affected the support features and Au NPs properties. Moreover, the modification of the zeolite lattice with boron was applied to change the strength of the zeolite acidity. All modifications resulted in changes in glucose conversion, while maintaining high selectivity to gluconic acid. The most important findings include the differences in the reaction steps limiting the reaction rate depending on the nature of the oxidant applied (oxygen vs. H2O2), the important role of porosity of the zeolite supports, and accumulation of negative charge on Au NPs in catalytic oxidation of glucose.

Clean power source utilizing vast logistic fuel reserves (jet fuels, diesel, and coal) would be the main driver in the 21st century for high efficiency. Fuel processors are required to convert these fuels into hydrogen-rich reformate for extended periods in the presence of sulfur, and deliver hydrogen with little or no sulfur to the fuel cell stack. However, the jet and other logistic fuels are invariably sulfur-laden. Sulfur poisons and deactivates the reforming catalyst and therefore, to facilitate continuous uninterrupted operation of logistic fuel processors, robust sulfur-tolerant catalysts ought to be developed. New noble metal-supported ceria-based sulfur-tolerant nanocatalysts were developed and thoroughly characterized. In this paper, the performance of single metal-supported catalysts in the steam-reforming of kerosene, with 260 ppm sulfur is highlighted. It was found that ruthenium-based formulation provided an excellent balance between hydrogen production and stability towards sulfur, while palladium-based catalyst exhibited rapid and steady deactivation due to the highest propensity to sulfur poisoning. The rhodium supported system was found to be most attractive in terms of high hydrogen yield and long-term stability. A mechanistic correlation between the role of the nature of the precious metal and the support for generating clean desulfurized -rich reformate is discussed.
