The influence of the surface chemical properties of the carbon support on the Pd dispersion, activity and stability of Pd(OH)2/C catalyst for the hydrogenolytic debenzylation of tetraacetyldibenzylhexaazaisowurtzitane (TADB) was studied in detail. The flowerlike nanosheet carbon material (NSC) was chosen as the pristine support, meanwhile chemical oxidation with nitric acid and physical calcination at 600 °C treatments were used to modify its surface properties, which were denoted as NSCox-2 (treated with 20 wt% HNO3) and NSC-600, respectively. The three carbon supports and the corresponding catalysts of Pd/NSC, Pd/NSC-600, and Pd/NSCox-2 were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nitrogen sorption isotherm measurement (BET), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectra, X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR), thermogravimetric analysis (TG), and element analysis. The debenzylation activities of Pd/NSC, Pd/NSC-600, and Pd/NSCox-2, as well as the three catalysts after pre-reduction treatment were also evaluated. It was found that the activity and stability of the Pd(OH)2/C catalysts in the debenzylation reaction highly depended on the content of surface oxygen-containing groups of the carbon support.

Abstract In the present work, the catalytic conversion of ethanol to 1,3-butadiene (1,3-BD) was studied over monometallic of Cu and Ag, and bimetallic Cu-Ag supported on MgO-SiO2 (with MgO/SiO2 ratio of 2.0) under the temperature range from 250 to 325 °C. All catalysts were prepared by 4 different techniques including (i) conventional impregnation, (ii) microwave-assisted method, (iii) polyvinyl alcohol/sodium borohydride (PVA/NaBH4) assisted method, and (iv) benzoxaxine-assisted method to elucidate the effect of catalyst preparation method on their catalytic performance. All fresh and spent catalysts were also characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption and Temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) techniques to understand the relation between their physical/chemical properties and catalytic performance. From the reaction test, it was found that 5 %Ag/MgO-SiO2 showed greater activity towards 1,3-BD production than 5 %Cu/MgO-SiO2; nevertheless, higher deactivation after 6 h of operation was observed from 5 %Ag/MgO-SiO2. Importantly, this study revealed that bimetallic 2.5 %Cu-2.5 %Ag/MgO-SiO2 enhanced significantly higher activity and stability towards the reaction than monometallic catalysts. In addition, 2.5 %Cu-2.5 %Ag/MgO-SiO2 prepared by benzoxaxine-assisted method enhanced significantly higher reaction activity and stability than other preparation techniques, from which 1,3-BD yield of 46.40 % after 6 h of operation can be achieved. From the characterization, the good activity of this catalyst is mainly due to the dispersion improvement of metal over MgO-SiO2 support.

Abstract To study the affinity of 3A aluminosilicate adsorbents to prevent oligomerization of olefin molecules and forming green oil, physical and chemical properties of 3A molecular sieves are measured by using characterization techniques such as temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), nitrogen (N2) and water adsorptions, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), crushing strength, and carbon dioxide (CO2) adsorption. Moreover, coke formation affinities of the understudy adsorbents are evaluated in a bench-scale system using 1-butene and 1,3-butadiene at temperatures of 220 and 260 °C, and outcomes are validated against the actual data gathered from an industrial scale olefin dehydration plant. Results confirm that the type of binder and the amount of ion exchange affect the performance of a 3A molecular sieve nominated for dehydrating olefinic streams. The binder with the least amount of acidity is preferred, and at least 35% of Na ions of the 4A zeolite should be exchanged with K ions to make it applicable for synthesizing an appropriate 3A molecular sieve. Furthermore, to control the oligomerization and inhibit green oil formation, the CO2 adsorption and acidity of Trisiv shape molecular sieves with the sizes of 1/4 inch should be less than 0.5 wt % and 1.7 mmol NH3/g, respectively. For extrudate shape with the sizes of 1/16 inch CO2 adsorption and acidity should be less than 0.2 wt % and 2.2 mmol NH3/g, respectively.

This paper deals with the results of an X-ray photo electron spectroscopy of lanthanide ortho-metoxybenzoates Ln(C6H4OCH3COO-)3, where Ln represents lanthanides La through Lu except for Pm and C6H4OCH3COO- - residuum of ortho-metoxybenzoic acid. The core and outer electron X-ray photo electron spectroscopy spectra in the binding energy range of 0-1250 eV were shown to exhibit a complex, fine structure. The said structure was established due to the outer (0-15 eV binding energy) and inner (15-50 eV binding energy) valence molecular orbital from the filled Ln5p and O2s atomic shells multiple splitting, many-body perturbation, dynamic effect, etc. The mechanisms of such a fine structure formation were shown to manifest different probabilities in the spectrum of a certain electronic shell. There fore, the fine X-ray photo electron spectroscopy spectral structure resulting from a certain mechanism can be interpreted and its quantitative parameters related to the physical and chemical properties of the studied com pounds (degree of delocalization and participation of Ln4f electrons in the chemical bond, electronic configuration and oxidation states, density of uncoupled electrons on paramagnetic ions, degree of participation of the low binding energy filled electronic shells of lanthanide and ligands information of the outer and in nervalence molecular orbitals, lanthanide close environment structure in amorphous materials, etc).

Three Way Catalyst

This work aimed at exploring a new kind of purification catalysts for fuel ethanol engine exhaust. Platinum loaded on Ce0.5Zr0.5O2 was prepared by impregnation method and characterized by X-ray diffraction, Brunner–Emmet–Teller measurements (BET), temperature-programmed reduction of hydrogen, scanning electron microscope, and X-ray photoelectron spectra. The three-way catalyst platinum/ceria–zirconia/fw is prepared with the paste ball mill coating technique. And the catalytic performance is evaluated under simulated fuel ethanol engine exhaust gas condition. The catalysts not only show excellent low-temperature performances and several-way catalytic activities for carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, and acetaldehyde but also have better high-temperature resistance. The addition of sulfur dioxide to feedstream degrades the performances of the catalysts.

The isomorphic substitution of two different metals (Mg and Co) within the framework of the ITQ-51 zeotype (IFO structure) using bulky aromatic proton sponges as organic structure-directing agents (OSDAs) has allowed the synthesis of different stable metal-containing extra-large-pore zeotypes with high pore accessibility and acidity. These metal-containing extra-large-pore zeolites, named MgITQ-51 and CoITQ-51, have been characterized by different techniques, such as powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry, UV–Vis spectroscopy, temperature programmed desorption of ammonia and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, to study their physico-chemical properties. The characterization confirms the preferential insertion of Mg and Co atoms within the crystalline structure of the ITQ-51 zeotype, providing high Brønsted acidity, and allowing their use as efficient heterogeneous acid catalysts in industrially relevant reactions involving bulky organic molecules.

CoFe2O4 prepared by sol-gel has been examined with respect to its catalytic performance for preferential CO oxidation in a H2-rich stream. In turn, the promoting effects of incorporation of Ce, Co, Cu, and Zr by impregnation on the surface of CoFe2O4 on the process are examined as well. The catalysts have been characterized by N2 adsorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), temperature programmed reduction (TPR), and X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), as well as diffuse reflectance infrared DRIFTS under reaction conditions with the aim of establishing structure/activity relationships for the mentioned catalyst/process. It is shown that while the presence of the various metals on CoFe2O4 hinders a low temperature CO oxidation process, it appreciably enhances the activity above 125 °C. This is basically attributed to the surface modifications, i.e. cobalt oxidation, induced in CoFe2O4 upon introduction of the metals. In turn, no methanation activity is observed in any case except for the copper-containing catalyst, in which achievement of reduced states of cobalt appears most favored.

Acid leaching and alkali roasting were used to remove impurities such as Ca and Si in Baiyun Obo rare earth concentrate. The effects of acid–base treatment on the physical and chemical properties of the samples were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller characterization, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, H2-temperature-programmed reduction, NH3-temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), and NO-TPD. Results showed that the content of Ce7O12 in the rare earth concentrates increased and the dispersion was uniform. The grains became smaller, the specific surface area of rare earth concentrates increased, and the active sites were more exposed. Ce coexisted in the form of Ce3+ and Ce4+, whereas Fe coexisted in the form of Fe3+ and Fe2+. The content of Fe3+ was increased. The acid–base-treated rare earth concentrates had a denitration efficiency of 87.4% at a reaction temperature of 400 °C.

A series of 10%wtNiO/CeO2-nanorod catalyst without and with Cr2O3 additive was prepared by simultaneous impregnation method. Several techniques, including N2 physisorption measurements, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), temperature-programmed reduction using H2 (H2-TPR), CO2 temperature-programmed desorption (CO2-TPD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to investigate catalysts’ physico-chemical properties. The activity of the catalysts in combined steam and CO2 reforming of CH4 (BRM) was investigated at temperature range of 550-800 °C. The results showed that 10%NiO0.1%Cr2O3/CeO2 catalyst had the best catalytic performance due to a better reducibility and basicity. At 700 °C and CH4:CO2:H2O molar ratio in feed stream of 3:1.2:2.4, both conversion of CH4 and CO2 on this catalyst reached 98.5%.

Abstract PtSn/Al2O3 catalysts with a given loading of 1 wt% Pt and 1 wt% Sn were prepared by co-impregnation or successive impregnation with aqueous solutions of Pt, Sn precursors and a commercial alumina. The catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption, H2-TPR (H2 temperature-programmed reduction), H2-pulse chemisorption, XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) and CO-FTIR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy), and tested in the hydrogenation of acetic acid. The results showed that the preparation method affected both the chemical properties and their performance in the hydrogenation of acetic acid. Sn enrichment on the catalysts surface was observed on the co-impregnated catalyst and catalyst in which the Pt precursor had been loaded first. It was found that the modification of Pt was a function of the sequence of Sn addition as revealed by CO-FTIR. Co-impregnated catalyst showed the highest activity and ethanol selectivity.
