Iridium, Iridium-Nickel and Iridium-Copper catalysts were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation and evaluated in the aqueous-phase reforming of glycerol using La2O3 or CeO2 as supports. The catalysts were characterized by N2 physisorption, XRD, H2-TPR, XPS, and EDS. The reactions were carried out in a fixed bed reactor feeding a solution of glycerol (10 wt %) in water, at 270 °C and 58 bar. All IrNi catalysts showed higher activity than Ir and IrCu, and in general, La2O3 catalysts showed a better performance when compared to CeO2 catalysts. The highest hydrogen production yield was reached by bimetallic IrNi catalysts with over 250 µmol min−1 gcat−1 for La2O3 and 150 µmol min−1 gcat−1 for CeO2.

The full article will be published in the English version of the  journal "Catalysis in Industry" No. 1, 2021.The synthesis of the microporous SAPO-34 molecular sieve goes from a combination of three templates: triethylamine, tetraethylammonium hydroxide, and morpholine under hydrothermal conditions. Two aluminum sources, namely aluminum hydroxide, and aluminum isopropoxide, were used exclusively to synthesize SAPO-34 zeolites. The effects of aluminum sources on the crystallization and physicochemical properties of SAPO-34 were studied thoroughly. The synthesized samples were characterized by using different characterization methods, including XRD, FE-SEM, N2 isotherm, EDS, and NH3-TPD. The results illustrate that the various sources of aluminum used for the synthesis of SAPO-34 materials extremely affect the crystallinity, morphology, and density of acid sites. Besides, the influence of aluminum sources on the performance of NH3-SCR technology was studied with Cu/SAPO-34 catalysts in a fixed-bed flow reactor. The two Cu/SAPO-34 catalysts promoted different NO and NH3 conversions between 200–600 °C though they share similar Cu content, which was loaded by the ion-exchange method in aqueous solution. In addition, the different Cu species in the two catalyst samples are surveyed by H2-TPR, while the EPR method is also used to assess the coordination of the copper element in the two catalysts.

Hydrogen production through steam reforming of ethanol (SRE) over the Ca-modified Co/SBA-15 catalysts was studied herein to evaluate the catalytic activity, stability and the behavior of coke deposition. The Ca-modified SBA-15 supports were prepared from the Ca(NO3)2·4H2O (10 wt%) which was incorporated to SBA-15 by incipient wetness impregnation (assigned as Ca/SBA-15) and direct hydrothermal (assigned as Ca-SBA-15) method. The active cobalt species from the Co(NO3)2·6H2O (10 wt%) was loaded to SiO2, SBA-15 and modified-SBA-15 supports with incipient wetness impregnation method to obtain the cobalt catalysts (named as Co/SiO2, Co/SBA-15, Co-Ca/SBA-15 and Co/Ca-SBA-15, respectively). The prepared catalysts were characterized by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature programmed reduction (TPR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and BET. The catalytic performance of the SRE reaction was evaluated in a fixed-bed reactor. The results indicated that the Co/Ca-SBA-15 catalyst was preferential among these catalysts and the ethanol can be converted completely at 375 °C. The hydrogen yield (YH2) approached 4.76 at 500 °C and less coke deposited. Further, the long-term stability test of this catalyst approached 100 h at 500 °C and did not deactivate.

A series of Cu/ZSM-5, Fe/ZSM-5, and Cu-Fe/ZSM-5 catalysts (Si/Al in ZSM-5 = 25) were prepared by different metal loadings using the liquid ion-exchange method. Several characterization methods were conducted to explore the effects of metals on the physical and chemical properties of catalysts. Meanwhile, the electron paramagnetic resonance method is also used to assess the copper and/or iron elements’ coordination and valence state at intersections or in channels of ZSM-5. The metal-loading effects of all catalysts on the catalytic activities were studied for the removal of NOx in a fixed-bed flow reactor using selective catalytic reduction with ammonia (NH3-SCR). The results showed that the iron’s addition could markedly broaden the operation temperature range of the Cu/ZSM-5 catalyst for NH3-SCR between 200 and 550°C due to the presence of more isolated Cu2+ ions as well as additional oligomeric Fe3+ active sites and FexOy oligomeric species. This paper gives a facile and straightforward way to synthesize the practical-promising catalyst applied in NH3-SCR technology to control NOx emissions.

AbstractThe hydrodesulphurization of a model component and equimolar ternary mixture of thiophene, 2-ethylthiophene and benzothiophene over sulphided CoMo/γ-Al2O3 and CoMo/γ-Al2O3-Nb2O5 catalysts were investigated in a fixed bed flow reactor. The catalysts were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation method and characterized by textural characteristics, total acidity and chemical species present on the catalysts surface. The characterization results showed that both CoMo/γ-Al2O3-Nb2O5 and sulphided CoMo/γ-Al2O3 catalysts exhibit a mesoporous structure with cylindrical pores open at both ends, evidenced by the IV type adsorption–desorption isotherm with a H1 hysteresis loop and have an average pore diameter between 3 and 4 nm. The chemical species present on the catalysts surface evaluated by XPS indicated that Co2+ and Mo4+ species are present in the sulfide form on both catalysts surfaces. In addition, there are also found oxidic species arising from incomplete reduction and sulphidation. The presence of niobium oxide in the catalytic support had a positive effect in leading to higher specific surface area (170 m2/g) and total acidity (0.421 meq/g) compared with CoMo/γ-Al2O3 catalyst (140 m2/g and 0.283 meq/g) respectively. The evaluation results from the hydrodesulfurization showed that CoMo/γ-Al2O3-Nb2O5 catalyst had a higher activity in hydrodesulphurization process of thiophene, 2-ethylthiophene and benzothiophene. The CoMo/γ-Al2O3-Nb2O5 catalyst eliminated sulfur from the single component feed (corresponding to 2380 ppm S) and reduced below 10 ppm, for the feed consisting in the equimolar ternary mixture of thiophene, 2-ethylthiophene and benzothiophene (2380 ppm S). The reactivity of thiophen compounds was reduced due to competitive adsorption. It was observed that benzothiophene inhibits the transformation of thiophene and 2-ethylthiophene. A mutual inhibition effect between sulfur compounds was also observed when thiophene, 2-ethylthiophene and benzothiophene were combined and tested over the CoMo/γ-Al2O3 catalyst. The inhibition effect had a lower intensity by introducing Nb2O5 in the catalyst support.

Among the zeolitic catalysts for the ethylene-to-propylene (ETP) reaction, the SSZ-13 zeolite shows the highest catalytic activity based on both its suitable pore architecture and tunable acidity. In this study, in order to improve the propylene selectivity further, the surface of the SSZ-13 zeolite was modified with various amounts of tungsten oxide ranging from 1 wt% to 15 wt% via a simple incipient wetness impregnation method. The prepared catalysts were characterized with several analysis techniques, specifically, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Raman spectroscopy, temperature-programmed reduction of hydrogen (H2-TPR), temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (NH3-TPD), inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), and N2 sorption, and their catalytic activities were investigated in a fixed-bed reactor system. The tungsten oxide-modified SSZ-13 catalysts demonstrated significantly improved propylene selectivity and yield compared to the parent H-SSZ-13 catalyst. For the tungsten oxide loading, 10 wt% loading showed the highest propylene yield of 64.9 wt%, which was 6.5 wt% higher than the pristine H-SSZ-13 catalyst. This can be related to not only the milder and decreased strong acid sites but also the diffusion restriction of bulky byproducts, as supported by scanning transmission electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (STEM-EDS) observation.

Iron-supported HZSM-5 catalysts were prepared by hydrothermal (Fe-HZSM-5_HYD) and impregnation methods (Fe/HZSM-5_IMP). The active species of binuclear-iron complex and iron-substituted zeolite framework, confirmed by EXAFS analysis, were observed on Fe/HZSM-5_IMP and Fe-HZSM-5_HYD, respectively. The catalysts were used for production of dimethyl ether (DME) by methanol dehydration at 200-350 °C using fixed bed flow reactor. Fe/HZSM-5_IMP showed higher catalytic conversion than Fe-HZSM-5_HYD. However, the Fe/HZSM-5_IMP catalyst was less selective to DME product and strongly deactivated for 24h. The deactivation might due to transformation of binuclear-iron to the a-iron site which was strong acidic strengh. The iron-substituted zeolite framework of Fe-HZSM-5_HYD showed high stability toward methanol dehydration. Moreover, the catalyst showed advantages of good selective to DME and low carbon deposition on surface. These results suggested that the iron-substituted zeolite framework structure could improve catalytic performance for mrthanol dehydration.
