TiO2–MnO x catalyst samples with different Ti/(Ti + Mn) molar ratios (2:3, 3:4, 4:5, 5:6, 6:7 and 1) prepared by the citric acid (CA) sol-gel method were studied in the catalytic combustion of vinyl chloride (VC) emission. The effects of preparation conditions and operation parameters on the catalytic performance of TiO2–MnO x were investigated. The catalyst samples were characterised by N2 adsorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and H2-temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR). In the catalytic combustion of VC over TiO2–MnO x, products containing HCl, CO2, and H2O were obtained and there were no by-products such as chlorohydrocarbons and chlorine. The TiO2–MnO x catalyst with the molar ratio of CA/Mn/Ti = 0.30:0.20:0.80 showed the best catalytic performance and had better operating flexibility over the ranges of gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) of 15000–100000 h−1 and VC concentration of 0.05–2.00%. The temperatures at 50% conversion (140 °C) and at 99% conversion (220 °C) were achieved at a VC concentration of 0.1% and GHSV of 15000 h−1. XRD characterisation indicated that only the characteristic diffraction peaks of TiO2 with the anatase structure appeared and no characteristic diffraction peaks of MnO x species appeared for the TiO2–MnO x catalyst. XRD and H2-TPR results indicated that Mn ions were incorporated into the TiO2 lattice to form a Ti–Mn–O solid solution, which enhanced the reactivity of active oxygen species on the catalyst surface and thereby promoted the catalyst activity.

Pt-promoted S2O82–/ZrO2–Al2O3 (SZA) catalysts were successfully prepared by the microemulsion (Pt-SZA-M) and impregnation (Pt-SZA-I) methods. The effects of the preparation parameters (surfactant-to-oil ratio, surfactant-to-cosurfactant ratio, types of cosurfactant and oil phase, etc.) on the catalytic activity of Pt-SZA-M catalysts in the isomerisation of n-pentane were investigated. The results showed that the optimal catalyst preparation conditions were: a cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)/ n-butanol mass ratio of 4:6, a (CTAB + n-butanol)/cyclohexane mass ratio of 3:7, a content of H2PtCl6 solution in microemulsion of 3.6 wt% and a N2H5OH/H2PtCl6 molar ratio of 25:1. A comparison of the isopentane yield for Pt-SZA-M with that for Pt-SZA-I was also performed. The results showed that the microemulsion method led to smaller and more uniform Pt particles (4.5 nm) on the SZA. In comparison with Pt-SZA-I, the isopentane yield for Pt-SZA-M was increased by 13.5% at 180 °C, showing the catalytic performance of Pt-SZA-M at lower temperature was improved significantly. At a reaction temperature of 230 °C, a pressure of 2.0 MPa, a hydrogen/ n-pentane molar ratio of 4:1 and a weight hourly space velocity of 1.0 h−1, the yield of isopentane for Pt-SZA-M reached 60.8%.

AbstractNi based catalysts supported on γ-Al2O3 that was unpromoted (Ni/γAl2O3) or promoted (Ni–Fe/γAl2O3, Ni–Co/γAl2O3, and Ni–Fe–Co/γAl2O3) were prepared using by the impregnation – co-precipitation method. Their catalytic performances for CO methanation were studied at 3 atm with a weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) of 3000 ml/g/h of syngas with a molar ratio of H2/CO = 3 and in the temperature range between 130 and 350 °C. All promoters could improve nickel distribution, and decreased its particle sizes. It was found that the Ni–Co/γAl2O3 catalyst showed the highest catalytic performance for CO methanation in a low temperature range (<250 °C). The temperatures for the 20% CO conversion over Ni–Co/γAl2O3, Ni–Fe/γAl2O3, Ni–Fe–Co/γAl2O3 and Ni/γAl2O3 catalysts were 205, 253, 263 and 270 °C, respectively. The improved catalyst distribution by the addition of cobalt promoter caused the formation of β type nickel species which had an appropriate interacting strength with alumina support in the Ni–Co/γAl2O3. Though an addition of iron promoter improved catalyst distribution, the methane selectivity was lowered due to acceleration of both CO methanation and WGS reaction with the Ni–Fe/γAl2O3. Moreover, it was found that there was no synergetic effect from the binary Fe–Co promotors in the Ni–Fe–Co/γAl2O3 on catalytic activity for CO methanation.

Ionic liquid containing active ingredient Zn(CH3COO)2was loaded in mesoporous silica gel to form supported ionic liquids catalyst (SILC) which was used to synthesize vinyl acetate monomer (VAM). SILC was characterized by1HNMR, FT-IR, TGA, BET, and N2adsorption/desorption and the acetylene method was used to evaluate SILC catalytic activity and stability in fixed reactor. The result shows that 1-allyl-3-acetic ether imidazole acetate ionic liquid is successfully fixed within mesoporous channel of silica gel. The average thickness of ionic liquid catalyst layer is about 1.05 nm. When the catalytic temperature is 195°C, the acetic acid (HAc) conversion is 10.9% with 1.1 g vinyl acetate yield and 98% vinyl acetate (VAc) selectivity. The HAc conversion is increased by rise of catalytic temperature and molar ratio of C2H2 : HAc and decreased by mass space velocity (WHSV). The catalyst activity is not significantly reduced within 7 days and VAc selectivity has a slight decrease.

A BiOCl/TiO2/diatomite (BTD) composite was synthesized via a modified sol–gel method and precipitation/calcination method for application as a photocatalyst and shows promise for degradation of organic pollutants in wastewater upon visible-light irradiation. In the composite, diatomite was used as a carrier to support a layer of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles and bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl) nanosheets. The results show that TiO2 nanoparticles and BiOCl nanosheets uniformly cover the surface of diatomite and bring TiO2 and BiOCl into close proximity. Rhodamine B was used as the target degradation product and visible light (λ > 400 nm) was used as the light source for the evaluation of the photocatalytic properties of the prepared BTD composite. The results show that the catalytic performance of the BTD composite under visible-light irradiation is much higher than that of TiO2 or BiOCl alone. When the molar ratio of BiOCl to TiO2 is 1:1 and the calcination temperature is 400 °C, the composite was found to exhibit the best catalytic effect. Through the study of the photocatalytic mechanism, it is shown that the strong visible-light photocatalytic activity of the BTD composite results mainly from the quick migration of photoelectrons from the conduction band of TiO2/diatomite to the surface of BiOCl, which promotes the separation effect and reduces the recombination rate of the photoelectron–hole pair. Due to the excellent catalytic performance, the BTD composite shows great potential for wide application in the field of sewage treatment driven by solar energy.

Pure Al2O3-2SiO2 powders with alkali-activation reactivity were prepared by a sol-gel method. The effects of preparation conditions on alkali-activation reactivity were studied and the optimum preparation conditions were obtained. The results show that calcination temperature is a key factor affecting the alkali-activation reactivity of the powders, while other preparation conditions such as synthetic temperature, the molar ratio of solvents to starting materials and drying time have fewer effects on alkali-activation reactivity than calcination temperature. The structure of the powders was investigated by 27Al magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. The data show that the Al2O3-2SiO2 powders with the high alkali-activation reactivity are of high content of 5-coordinated Al and the peaks attributed to 5-coordinated Al are strengthened with the rise of calcination temperature of the powders.
