Hydrogenation Of Co

Density functional theory (DFT) at GGA-PBE/DZP level was performed to study the adsorption processes of CO and H2 on clusters Co2Cu2 and Co2Cu2 supported on MgO (Co2Cu2/MgO) system. The electronic structures, geometries of Co2Cu2 and Co2Cu2/MgO, adsorption energies were studied and analyzed. The optimal adsorption configurations of CO and H2 on Co2Cu2 and Co2Cu2/MgO were determined. The results show that CO and H2 are chemically adsorbed on Co2Cu2 and Co2Cu2/MgO systems and the adsorption process does not involve a transition state. MgO support plays important role in the increasing of the activation ability of Co2Cu2/MgO for CO compared to the initial cluster. Keywords: Syngas, DFT, Co2Cu2, MgO, adsorption.

The adsorption and activation processes of CO2 and H2 on Ni5 catalyst supported on activated carbon (Ni5/AC) were investigated by using density functional theory at GGA-PBE/DZP level of theory and climbing image – nudged elastic band (CI-NEB) method. The adsorption energy, charges on atoms, bond orders and geometry parameters were calculated and analyzed. The most favourable adsorption configurations were determined. The results show that H2 and CO2 are chemically adsorbed on Ni5/AC. The adsorption process does not involved a transition state. CO2 is strongly activated on Ni5/AC system.

Been studying the interactions between graphene - like aluminium nitride P(AlN)21 nano ribbons doped and defect (AlN)21Sheet, Molecules and small toxic gas molecules ( H2S), were built for two different adsorption sites on graphene like aluminium nitride P(AlN)21. this was done by employing B3LYP density functional theory (DFT) with 6-31G*(d,p) using Gaussian 09 program, Gaussian viw5.0 package of programs and Nanotube Modeller program 2018. the adsorptions of H2S on P(AlN)21, (C) atoms-doped P(AL-N)20 sheet, D-P(AL-N)20 and D-(C)atoms-doped P(AL-N)19 (on atom) with (Ead) (-0.468eV),(-0.473 eV), (-0.457 eV), (-0.4478 eV) and (-0.454 eV), respectively, (Ead) of H2S on the center ring of the P(AL-N)21, (C) atoms-doped P(AL-N)20 sheet, D-P(AL-N)20 and D-(C,B)atoms-doped P(AL-N)19 sheet are (-0.280 eV),(-0.465 eV), (-0.405 eV), (-0.468 eV) and -0.282 eV), respectively, are weak physisorption . However, the adsorptions of H2S, on the ((AlN)20 -B and D- (AlN)19 -B), (on atom N and center ring the sheet) are a strong chemisorption because of the (Ead) larger than -0.5 eV, due to the strong interaction, the ((AlN)20-B and D-(AlN)19-B), could catalyst or activate, through the results that we obtained, which are the improvement of the sheet P(AlN)21 by doping and per forming a defect in, it that can be used to design sensors.

We report routes towards synthesis of novel [Formula: see text]-conjugated freebase cobalt, copper, gallium and manganese meso-alkynylcorroles. UV-vis spectra show that extensive peak broadening, red shifts, and changes in the oscillator strength of absorptions increase with the extension of [Formula: see text]-conjugation. Using density functional theory (DFT), we have carried out a first theoretical study of the electronic structure of these metallocorroles. Decreased energy gaps of about 0.3–0.4 eV between the HOMO and LUMO orbitals compared to the corresponding copper, gallium and manganese meso-5,10,15 triphenylcorrole are observed. In all cases, the HOMO energies are nearly unperturbed as the [Formula: see text]-conjugation is expanded. The contraction of the HOMO–LUMO energy gaps is attributed to the lowered LUMO energies.

Benzoic acid (C6H5COOH) is selected as coal-based model compound with Co compounds (Co3O4, CoO and Co) as the catalysts, and the influence of the valence state change of the catalyst for pyrolysis process is investigated using density functional theory (DFT). DFT results shows that the highest energy barrier of C6H5COOH pyrolysis is in the following order: Ea(CoO) <Ea(Co3O4) <Ea(no catalyst) <Ea(Co). In general, Co3O4 catalyst accelerates C6H5COOH pyrolysis. Then, the catalytic activity further increases when Co3O4 is reduced to CoO. Finally, Co shows no activity for C6H5COOH pyrolysis due to the reduction of CoO to metallic Co.
