Composite catalysts of mixed metal oxides were prepared by mixing a phase-pure M1 MoVNbTeOx with anatase-phase TiO2. Two methods were used to prepare the composite catalysts (the simple physically mixed or sol-gel method) for the improvement of the catalytic performance in the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane (ODHE) process. The results showed that TiO2 particles with a smaller particle size were well dispersed on the M1 surface for the sol-gel method, which presented an excellent activity for ODHE. At the same operating condition (i.e., the contact time of 7.55 gcat·h/molC2H6 and the reaction temperature of 400 °C), the M1-TiO2-SM and M1-TiO2-PM achieved the space time yields of 0.67 and 0.52 kgC2H4/kgcat/h, respectively, which were about ~76% and ~35% more than that of M1 catalyst (0.38 kgC2H4/kgcat/h), respectively. The BET, ICP, XRD, TEM, SEM, H2-TPR, C2H6-TPSR, and XPS techniques were applied to characterize the catalysts. It was noted that the introduction of TiO2 raised the V5+ abundance on the catalyst surface as well as the reactivity of active oxygen species, which made contribution to the promotion of the catalytic performance. The surface morphology and crystal structure of used catalysts of either M1-TiO2-SM or M1-TiO2-PM remained stable as each fresh catalyst after 24 h time-on-stream tests.

Use of quicklime as a sole catalyst for transesterification is limited by poor chemical stability and post-reaction recovery. This study investigates the effect of dry milling time on the transesterification catalytic performance (activity and recovery) of mechanically alloyed MgO, Al2O3 and eggshell derived quicklime. Raw chicken eggshells were calcined at 900 °C. The resulting flaking eggshell ash was directly mixed and comminuted with MgO and Al2O3 in ball milling (BM) machine for 15, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 150 minutes. Each of the catalyst samples was analyzed for surface morphology and particle size distribution, and then utilized for biodiesel production. Analyses of catalyst samples showed that mean particle size reduced, while powder agglomeration advanced with milling time. Optimum catalytic performance was achieved with the composite alloyed for 120 minutes (Z120) and that resulted in fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) yield of 88.4% and catalyst recovery of 98.3%. Sample Z120 was further characterized by TEM, EDX, XRD and BET. Calcination of the composite catalyst enhanced its activity. Dry high energy BM of oxides can be utilized effectively for synthesis of composite catalysts.
