A series of sulfide coupled semiconductors supported on SiO2, (), was prepared by incipient wet impregnation method. The photocatalysts were characterized by XRD, XPS, TPR, and UV/Vis DRS. Characterization results show that the chemical actions between ZnS and CdS resulted in the formation of solid solutions on the surface of the support and the formation of them is affected by the molar ratio of ZnS/CdS and calcination temperature. Performance of photocatalysts was tested in the home made reactor under both UV light and solar-simulated light irradiation by detecting the rate of the photocatalytic H2evolution from glycerol solution. The hydrogen production rates are related to the catalyst composition, surface structure, photoabsorption property, as well as the amount of solid solution. The maximum rate of hydrogen production, 550 μmol·h−1under UV light irradiation and 210 μmol·h−1under solar-simulated light irradiation, was obtained over Cd0.8Zn0.2S/SiO2solid solution calcined at 723 K.

CuO/MgO system having different compositions was prepared by impregnation method followed by calcination at 400-900 °C. The effect of CuO content, calcination temperature and doping with small amounts of K<sup>+</sup> species (1-3 mol %) on physicochemical, surface and catalytic properties of the system were investigated using XRD, adsorption of N2 at -196 °C, and conversion of isopropyl alcohol at 150-400 °C using a flow technique. The results revealed that the solids having the formulae 0.2 and 0.3 CuO/MgO calcined at 400 °C consisted of nanosized MgO and CuO as major phases together with Cu<sub>2</sub>O as minor phase. The BET-surface areas of different adsorbents are decreased by increasing CuO content, calcination temperature and K<sup>+</sup>- doping. MgO-support material showed very small catalytic activity in 2-propanol conversion. The investigated system behaved as selective catalyst for dehydrogenation of 2-propanol with selectivity &gt; 80%. The catalytic activity increased by increasing CuO content and decreased by increasing the calcination temperature within 400-900 °C. K<sup>+</sup> - doping increased the catalytic activity and catalytic durability.

Composition of the reaction products formed by hydrogenation of pyridine at 300 °C and 15 MPa in the presence of 15 sulphided and unsulphided molybdenum and tungsten catalysts promoted by cobalt and by nickel, respectively, using alumina as the support in most cases, has been examined. It has been proved that the catalyst composition affects both its hydrogenation activity and the ratio of transalkylation to cracking (or hydrocracking) reactions. Relations between the catalyst composition and its activity and selectivity found for the reaction of pyridine differ from those reported for hydrogenolytic cleavage of thiophene, hydrogenation and isomerization of cyclohexene.

Molybdenum oxide catalyst doped or mixed with (1 - 50) mole % Fe3+ ions were prepared. The structure of the original samples and the samples calcined at 400 °C were characterized using DTA, X-ray diffraction and IR spectra. Measurements of the electrical conductivity of calcined samples with and without isopropyl alcohol revealed that the conductance increases on increasing the content of Fe3+ ions up to 50 mole %. The activation energies of charge carriers were determined in presence and absence of the alcohol. The catalytic dehydration of isopropyl alcohol was carried out at 250 °C using a flow system. The results obtained showed that the doped or mixed catalysts are active and selective towards propene formation. However, the catalyst containing 40 mole % Fe3+ ions exhibited the highest activity and selectivity. Correlations were attempted to the catalyst composition with their electronic and catalytic properties. Probable mechanism for the dehydration process is proposed in terms of surface active sites.

Vanadium oxide catalysts doped or mixed with 1-50 mole % Fe3+ ions were prepared. The structure of the original samples and those calcined from 200 up to 500 °C were characterized by TG, DTA, IR and X-ray diffraction. The SBET values and texture of the solid catalysts were investigated. The catalytic dehydration-dehydrogenation of isopropanol was carried out at 200 °C using a flow system. The results obtained showed an observable decrease in the activity of V2O5 on the addition of Fe3+ ions. Moreover, Fe2V4O13 is the more active and selective catalyst than FeVO4 spinels. The results were correlated with the active sites created on the catalyst surface.
